I have often seen Yukio and have had a cup of sake, but I don't drink it all the time.
It was the first time for me to try it in a cup. It was crisp and dry with a delicious rice flavor!
It's been a while since I've had a cup of sake, but I was satisfied with the design of the cup as well!
I ate too much for lunch, and I want to drink alone at night.
I want to drink slowly and refreshingly.
...and my stomach too...lol
After being rejected by my two favorite restaurants (one closed, the other with the boss), I arrived at the last frontier.
This is a place where people from the company don't come.
...I think it's time to find a new place to eat.
Yukio (snow man), sold only in the prefecture, Aizan
I wanted something to go with the beef stewed in white miso with sake lees! I asked my daughter to get me one that goes well with the beef stock sake lees white miso stew.
It's a bit too smooth for a junmai (pure rice) sake.
It's not too heavy, not too light, but not too heavy.
Not too heavy, not too light, just the right amount of alcohol.
Even though it is 13 degrees...it changes its character when it is warmed up.
As recommended, it goes well with beef tendon.
The daikon radish in the cold oden is also good...hmmm, maybe one more piece of shirataki would be good for the body? LOL!
My wallet is getting thinner and thinner...only payday is full and the rest is before payday....
What should I do, one more drink.......or maybe I should go to my usual wine store and have a drink with my usual girl.......I am an old man.......attention, attention, attention......lol
The aroma is only slightly sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, you feel the umami of rice, but the aftertaste is clean. I think it leaves an alcoholic taste on the tongue.
Basically, it is the type of wine that can be drunk easily with any dish, but I don't think it is my favorite.

Purchased at a local sake shop on the way back from Kiyotsukyo in Tokamachi. It seems to be a local sake.
I drank it with hiya. It has a very robust taste that overturns the image of Echigo sake as watery and easy to drink. The first taste is bitter, followed by sourness, but it quickly fades away and is an easy-drinking sake with a delicious flavor that is typical of Echigo.
It goes well with strong-flavored snacks. It tastes best when paired with side dishes such as roasted soybeans stir-fried with sweet and spicy sauce, which we bought at the same supermarket.
The side dish is said to be miso-mame, a local Tokamachi dish. It is said to be a local dish to enjoy the leftover beans from Setsubun. It goes very well with sake.
