The third of the three (premium) types of sake comparison. The last one is a gem with a very fashionable name. This was the finale of the "I didn't know there were so many Shimane sake brands. I was told that it is a brand that is not easily distributed, and I tasted it gratefully.
This is a very old drink and too much time has passed to accurately describe the taste. Please note that we will rate it neutrally based on the degree to which we would like to repurchase it.

This is also slightly amber in color, and the aroma is not strong. In the mouth, the acidity and bitterness are even stronger. This is another dry sake with a unique flavor.

It's going to be a local sake festival in Shimane Prefecture today 😃.
However, the first glass of [Shinigami] was too strong and left a lingering taste in my mouth, so I'm not sure what will happen next 😅.
This one is a little amber in color.
The aroma is not strong, and in the mouth it is a dry sake with a slightly acidic and bitter taste.
This one also has a slight tangy stimulation on the tongue. Is this a characteristic of Li Bai Shuzo's sake? 🧐

I found and purchased this sake at the Shinjuku Keio Department Store during the San-in promotion aboard the Sunrise.
The Shinjuku Yakumo has a refreshing acidity, the dry sake is crisp, and both are solid with umami at the end.
Dry. I drank it cold and enjoyed it!
I was a little concerned about the old fragrance, but I think it was lessened if I sipped it with a small sake cup.
It is said to be dry, but it is quite easy to drink, with a slight sweetness and a refreshing aftertaste.
In the summer, a refreshing aftertaste is always a good thing.
