The seller is Kuretake Shuzo in Kashima City, Saga Prefecture, and the manufacturer is Kinegawa in Isahaya City, Nagasaki Prefecture. This sake was included in a drinking set as a Kashima sake. It tastes orthodox. Compared to the sake we have compared so far, it does not have a strong personality.

Slightly sweet apple-like top
The same soft aroma as at the top, the soft umami and sweetness of the rice spread gradually with a crisp acidity, and the slight bitterness and spiciness of a little alcohol make it finish smoothly.
It is slightly classical and well-balanced, and is best drunk with a meal rather than on its own.
At first, the sake seemed thin, but that all changed when served with a meal. It was a delicious sake that complemented the food. It was a delicious sake that complemented the food.
It was purchased last summer at a Famima at Isahaya station.
The aroma is not strong, and it is a classic sake.
The taste is light, with a sweetness and umami that is not strong, followed by a sharp alcohol taste. The alcohol content is not that high, at 14 degrees. It must be a very well-made sake, since it is alkalo-sweetened and has added sugar and acidity. The tingling and numbing sensation on the tongue is also different from the gaseous sensation of other delicious sake.... If you like Showa-style hot sake + choko🍶, this might suit you. Not my cup of tea, though.
