Li Bai Li Bai Shuzo Special Junmai
I had never heard of this brand before, and it was recommended to me.
It was very tasty and fruity!
I would like to try another brand, and I am curious to see what the future holds for this sake brewery.

This is the first brand of sake I had ever tried.
I imagined it to be extremely dry, but it was surprisingly mild. It was slightly tangy on the palate, with a mild rice flavor and sweetness. It was just the way I like it.

Li Bai's booth in Shimane Prefecture.
I used to buy their mirin (sweet cooking rice wine) because it was so good, but this time I held back and didn't buy it.

The sake is fermented in the bottle and is very shwashy. The taste is slightly dry. The English label on the bottle suggests that this is an export product, but it was bottled "raw" without any heat treatment.
◉Li Bai Junmai Ginjyo Araubashiri Nama Nama Sake
This was a limited edition of 200 bottles. It has a strong sake taste and umami rather than a roughness. I'm a sucker for limited editions, but it wasn't really my favorite, so I passed on it.
I bought it after tasting it and finding it delicious. It was a sake that helped me when I felt that my taste buds had returned to normal.
I enjoyed it while wishing for the romance of conquering the serpent Yamata and freedom from corona.
I loved the taste of this sake. I would like to repeat this one and taste it again 😌.
