Drink cold.
The aroma is of ripe apples.
Taste is mainly sourness with bitterness at the end.
It is better to drink it quickly and enjoy the fresh sourness and aroma through the nose than to drink it slowly.
I found this one, which I had not yet tasted, at a nearby liquor store and bought it.
It is an easy-drinking, delicious sake with a sweet, gentle, and slightly sour taste. It has a mellow flavor, so it has a sake feel to it and is quite tasty.
Thank you for the sake 😄.
For the record. This sake was awarded the first prize in the Junmai-shu category of the 2023 Tohoku Sake Distinctive Brewing Competition. It has a grape-like aroma and a sweet, soft taste. I found it to be a little too sweet at -11 on the sake scale, but as I continued drinking it, I began to enjoy it. If you have a good sense of taste, you may be able to comment on the difference between the two bottles, but for me, they were both very tasty sakes.
For the record. This sake won a gold medal at the 2023 National New Sake Competition. This is the sake we received. It has an apple-like aroma and a sweet taste in the mouth. I felt it was a little too sweet, but as I continued drinking it, I began to enjoy it. In the end, I enjoyed it.

The sweetness and umami are well expressed in this rich, mellow and delicious sake. It is rich, mellow and delicious. This is also my favorite type of sake.
I would love to buy this one, but I can't find it on the market.
I guess they don't sell it anymore...
The rice comes straight to you without any sweetness or acidity. It's very nice and not too glamorous.
My two daughters and I went to Togatta Onsen in Michinoku. Sasa-kamaboko (bamboo grass kamaboko) is delicious!
It is rather dry, but fruity, fragrant, and pleasant to the palate. After a soft entry into the mouth, the umami flavor comes through and the aftertaste is refreshing.
