(˶◜˶◝˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 We opened our first bottle of Sun today 😋. The aroma is gorgeous 😊. The taste is slightly dry with a gentle umami and sweetness that is balanced just right 🤔The crisp mouthfeel makes me want to drink it over and over again 🥰. It is a delicious sake that can be enjoyed with something to eat or on its own 🥳.

(沒沒沒) ❣🍶🍶🍶🍶 Purchases from my trip to Tohoku 😀 I found a cup at Maxvalue in Yamagata prefecture that looks exactly like Kikuyu's 👀🤣I wanted a limited edition Daiginjo, but I got this one 😁It's a Hatsusun Honjozo 😇. The alcohol content is 16 degrees, so it's more gentle than the original 😊Alcoholic aroma, sourness and umami 😚After the rich umami and a hint of sweetness, it has a clean aftertaste from the aluzoe 😇This is a delicious sake 🥳.

Shozui, a daiginjo representing Hatsuson, from Sakata City, Yamagata Prefecture. This sake brewery is dedicated to the production of sake using the "Namahashi-zukuri" method of sake brewing. The taste is fruity and mellow, with a deep umami flavor, but the aftertaste is good, leaving a dry taste typical of sake from the port town of Sakata! Is this deep umami a taste that comes from the sake brewing process? It is so good that you can have many glasses of sake alone, chilled. ☺️

Strong Kimoto fragrance. It opens clear and simple like water and then a richness rushes out with mineral and spice in the finish. Very light and dry. Rice Polishing Ratio: 60% SMV: +3 Acidity: 1.4
