Higashinada, dried bonito masamune, 720ml, 1,430 yen
Summer Sake Pairing
Katsuura Port in Sotobo is famous for its bonito fishing. The bonito caught here is sold at a high price in the market and quenches the thirst of fish lovers. However, the distinctive flavor of the fish, which can be a bit gory, requires a certain knack for tasting it. For sake, a dry sake with a lot of acidity is the perfect choice: the dry Junmai "Katsuo Masamune" from Higashinada, a local sake.
The crisp acidity and spiciness derived from live lactic acid bacteria, born for the purpose of tasting bonito, washes away the smell of bonito and delivers only its deliciousness.

Purchased on a trip to Kamiaso. It is easy to drink with a light and dry taste like water that is rich like caramel and yet refreshing! It is a "super light and dry" sake with a sake strength of +10, oichiii.
I want to buy it again because I can drink it so easily (laugh).
