Sake from the northern Kanto region has the impression of a strong umami taste, but this sake has a lot of umami, acidity, and a long, enjoyable aftertaste, almost like Nara sake.
I like this one without question.
I don't think the jacket does it justice at all, though.
It seems to go well with well-seasoned simmered dishes.
It is also delicious on its own.
Tonight's drink is perfect for my sober self.
Mellow, crisp, fruity 🌸🍶✨
Nice to meet you Matsu no Kotobuki 🍶🍶.
Mellow and mellow,
yet still crisp and dry ✨🍶✨.
This is going to be addictive 😆.
Always a tochigiaye in my heart 🥰🥰.
I enjoy it very much.
Next up was the Butterfly Lady from Matsunotsu no Kotobuki.
Hiding a little the stirring in my heart that says, "Aim for that ace of nostalgia, ⁉️," I take a sip first.
It is said to be a single shot fire-refining junmai ginjo-shu brewed with 100% Yumesasara produced in Tochigi Prefecture, and thanks to its gentle taste, it goes down smoothly. The clear and refreshing taste soaks into your body like a soft drink. I didn't know such a sake existed, it was delicious 💕💕.
Good evening, Wakata-san 😃.
I'm curious to know if Coach Munekata and Hiromi Oka are there too 😄 Actually, we know about Reika Ryuzaki, but we haven't tried Butterfly Lady 😅I'll have to try it next time 👋.
Hi Jay & Nobby😃Thank you for your help here as well☺️ exactly the kind of thing you should aim for in the sake world ✨I can only imagine how much fresher it would taste if it had Oka Hiromi or something like that 🤣.
I did not like this sake very much when I first opened the bottle, but I was surprised to find that it became more delicious as the days went by. The alcohol content is high, but the elegant aroma of Omachi gently stands out in the light mouthfeel, and the juicy flavor spreads.
It is a well-balanced sake with a good balance of umami, spiciness, acidity, and sharpness.

Sake that would go well with tempura 🍤 grilled chicken 🍗 🍶.
The moment I put it in my mouth, I thought, "Mrs. Butterfly, you are so harsh!" and the impression is dry, but the aftertaste is gentle. It seems to go well with a strong meal!
I bought some sake in Nikko, it was the tenth sake from a sake bar. Bought in Nikkō. #10 from sake bar!
