On the way home, I asked what sake they recommended to go with sashimi, and I bought this one from among the three choices they offered. It was delicious, with a slightly floral aroma, a subtle sweetness in the mouth, and the perfect amount of spiciness from the umami.
It has a mild, yet strong umami flavor that is uncharacteristic of Shimane sake, and has no strange peculiarities, making it a perfect match.
It is similar to Kaygetsu, but the aftertaste is not spicy and fades away quickly, giving the impression of being more gentle.
If you drink it blind, you would never think it was made in Shimane, and for better or worse, it is a very un-Shimane-like sake.
It is really delicious.

Tangy and elegant with a hint of acidity!
Unfiltered raw sake, but lighter than thick!
Slightly lactic acid accent
I bought this brand because I had never seen it before at a produce market I was visiting.
Sweet aroma and taste: ☺️
It has a lingering aftertaste and sweetness from the first sip, but I don't think it's that much of a seduction.
It's a moderate food sake.
It has a slightly rich flavor for those who like sake.
It is also good warmed up in the cold season.
