Shu when opened
Almost no gas
Slight banana and melon-like top notes
The same subdued aroma, gentle sweetness and firm rice flavor spreads with a crisp acidity, and the wine finishes with a moderate bitterness and a little alcohol spiciness.
It is not too spicy for its alcohol content and goes well with a meal or on its own.
It goes well with cornbread and bean bread from Biei Seisenkatsu.

The second cup is Hangsui Tokujun.
This one has a slightly old-fashioned taste.
It may be dry, but the taste is not refreshing, but rather full-bodied.
The mountain cuisine is too good to be matched with sake!
This is a refreshing "summer-oriented" Houmizu. The aftertaste is as refreshing as ever, but the initial feeling of alcohol on the palate is much less, which is good on a hot day. Wishing for the success of the Awaodori Festival starting today.
When you first sip it, you may think the alcohol taste is strong for a moment, but then it clears up and the aftertaste is refreshing. Nice aftertaste. I like it again.

I'm on a sobriety kick right now😱.
I've been on a sobriety program since July 1 in preparation for my physical exam next week 🥺I've voluntarily decided that this is the year to start drinking 😤 since my liver is over the threshold every year.
I drank only 1 gou of sake on July 5 🫣.
I wonder if I can hold out for 5 more days. 😮💨
First time in Happosui 🍶.
I'm finally done with my second round of map painting 😅5 more prefectures to go 🗾.
I'm still waiting for my next stopover 😙.
Rich and full bodied 🍶.
Tastes just like the specs 😄.
It's a high alu and it's a gut punch.

Hi Ace 🐦.
Were you in sobriety 😳‼️ for 10 days? That seems like a long time 🥺I hope it turns out well 🙏.
I'm still in the same part of the world 😁I've almost given up on Okinawa and Miyazaki, so I don't think I can make the second round 💦.
Good evening, Pon.
I was going to be sober for 3 weeks, but I didn't want to leave the rest of the bottle in the fridge for a long time 😅Thank you 😊.
I'm trying to drown it all in non-alcoholic canned beer 🍺😵.
Good evening Ace 😃.
Our pre-checkup sobriety period is getting shorter every year, it used to be a month but we're talking about making it a week! I wish you a safe return 😌 Takakakaki! We had it at the prefect meeting and it was delicious 😚.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby...thank you. I would love to make it a month, but I'm not sure I can endure it😅.
I want to return safely 🙏If I can clear it this time, I'll make it ~one week next year😙.
Takakaki 🍶 you were drinking 😄.
Tokushima Souvenir (2)
Slightly dry and sour
It is cloudy and leaves a little bit of a lingering taste in the mouth.
It's good, but not good for hot season...
★★★★✩✩✩
Purchased at Hankyu Umeda Main Store on 6/30
First Tokushima Sake
It's gloomy and I'm naturally sweating 💦 these days. I was looking for a light sake to drink... and I found something that looked good!
Cool from the bottle
A little graininess in the aroma
Smooth and very easy to drink.
The flavor is subdued, but not thin and bland, and you can definitely taste the flavor of the rice.
There is a slight acidity in the aftertaste, which is refreshing!
