Junmai Namaishige Nama sake 🍶.
Shuwa, dry and bitter 😆. There is also a fruity feeling on the back. Pear. Kire, sharp ✨ Pair with salmon yukke and firefly squid peperoncino 😋.

Tonight we will be serving a sake from the Ogino Sake Brewery in Miyagi, Tohoku.
If served cold, it has a crisp aftertaste, and if served chilled, it has a mild yet powerful flavor.
A pleasantly intoxicating sake with just the right amount of spiciness.
The alcohol taste is strong for the alcohol content.
It's firm, dry and clean without any aftertaste.
When it returns to room temperature, the tongue is mellowed and the spiciness is slightly reduced.
Sake from the Haginotsuru brewery, Hiwada
A sake that looks great warmed up. Not too heavy, not too light, but exquisitely balanced, as is typical of Miyagi. The sake is not too heavy and not too light, but has a perfect balance.
It is good with sashimi, ethnic foods, spices, and of course, I personally think it is good with red bean paste such as manju and zenzai.
