Refreshing sake. It has a fresh, raw-like flavor, even though it has been fire-brewed once. It's straightforward without any off-flavors. I already fell in love with the label at first sight and bought it at a liquor store as a souvenir of my trip to Sendai! Gentle taste but high alcohol content😅.
It is from the same brewery as the Hagi no Tsuru I first drank in Sendai.
I was attracted by the sunflower label and ordered it.
It has a perfect balance of sourness, sweetness and umami.
Even though it is fire-roasted, it has a refreshing aroma.
I like it!
It is fire-roasted but fresh and has a fresh acidity! It has a strong flavor, gentle sweetness, bitterness, and acidity that is not too strong, so you can drink it easily.
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.
