It is dry, but not at all harsh as one might expect, with just the right amount of sweetness and aroma to make it an easy sake to order "for the time being" as a sake that goes well with meals.
It was kind of a snack menu dinner, so I made a day of drinking in a hurry.
Today's sake was Asakai's Suijin🍶.
It's been a while since I've had such a dry sake, and the first sip was a shock 😳 As you drink it, you get used to it and can really taste the umami.
Unfortunately, however, it does not go well with food 😭.
I had a light Japanese menu consisting mainly of vegetables and fish, but the direction was somehow different 😭! I felt it was 🌀🌀
It is very assertive and dry, so I thought it would be good with rich meat dishes.
Good evening, Mr. Salt Musubi😃.
I'm looking at the food lined up on the table and I'm thinking of sake today 🍶! 🤗.
If you have various kinds of sake in the fridge, you can compare them 😅.
Classic sake-like smell.
When you take a sip, it is hot, spicy, and full of alcohol.
Slightly strong acidity, light graininess, and a mild rice richness.
Not at all sweet.
It may be a little too spicy on its own,
It is good with oily food.
It is a distinctive sake for a mealtime drink, but it is quite good.
Masurao
3.5/5 for my favorite
Dry. Yellowish. It has a faintly peculiar smell, perhaps because it's my imagination. It's a little bit like old rice, but you can feel the rice anyway. Anyway, you can feel the rice. No fruity taste at all, which is good. No repeat.
