Yonezawa, Kojima Sohonten Toko "Yumi", limited to Yamagata. Not only is it dry, crisp and easy to drink. Not only is it dry, crisp, and easy to drink, but it also has a refreshing green apple-like ginjo aroma. Well, well, well. This is a delicious sake. Serve with butterbur sprouts tempura.

Aroma is modest, but honey apple and milk-based richness. The aroma is clean and gentle, with occasional hints of Western liquor. Sweet and tasty with moderate acidity. Spicy and dry aftertaste. PS : On the first day, I felt a mineral-like powdery taste and wrote "chalk" or something, but did I feel a kind of umami? Gradually it became less of an issue, and by the third day, the full-bodied flavor had increased and there was a unique deliciousness!

It's time for a night of drinking with two women born in the town of Shirataka, Yamagata, and I don't remember what it tastes like (I do remember things that have an impact or that I want to drink again, even if I'm drunk). This is... Almost the entire list, all of it delicious.

To be pure and clean. Alcohol content 16%. Polishing ratio 60 Toko is brewed by Kojima Sohonten, and is a limited edition sake for exclusive dealers. Kojima Sohonten is a sake brewery founded in 1597, and is famous as the official brewery of the Uesugi Kenshin family of the Yonezawa domain. It is a sake brewery that was allowed to brew sake even during the "prohibition of alcohol" during the Edo period (1603-1868), and is a long-established brewery with 24 generations of history. This junmai sake is characterized by its sharp and slightly dry taste. It has a moderate texture and a taste that never gets old, making it a perfect accompaniment to a variety of dishes. It was the most ordinary lol.

And the next day, I was taken to Shinbashi again by an acquaintance, or rather a slightly senior person in my life. 😅 Shimbashi is also quite interesting, as you can find many different kinds of stores when you go a little off the main street. I had a small glass of draft beer at first. I quickly switch to sake (lol). The first one is a sake from Yonezawa, Yamagata called Rinku, which is a first for me. Yonezawa is famous for Toko and Gazanryu, but I had never seen this brand, so I quickly took a sip. The sake was dry and refreshing, just like the label on the back of the bottle, with a delicious flavor of rice. It was easy to drink and I finished the whole bottle in no time at all. It was a nice drink and I finished the whole bottle in no time 😁.
