Polishing ratio 55
Alcohol 15%.
Rice 100% Koshihikari produced in Namie-cho

Made from Koshihikari rice, it has a crisp taste in the mouth.
It is soft but relatively strong in alcohol and hot in the throat. It is a little like shochu, which is interesting.
It's a sake planned by Fukushima FM and is the second in the Banjo Kotobuki Cross Series!
I heard that it was supervised by a famous person (I forgot his name... sorry for my ignorance), so I was curious and bought it!
It's so good 😳!
It's fruity, but it has a sourness that leaves a sharp taste at the end.
But when I drank it the next day, the sourness was gone and it was mellowed out✨.
Oh, it's the best! Delicious!

It has an acidic and umami taste and a slightly hard texture. There is a significant bitterness in the aftertaste.
The label says it is made with "shagin milled rice", but I couldn't understand what that means.

A cup of sake purchased at Isetan Shinjuku. This Iwaki City sake brewery moved to Nagai City, Yamagata Prefecture, after the earthquake. They must have been making it under the policy of a man of the sea all along. It has an austere cemedine smell and a firm acidity.
Osaka Odenkyu" at Grand Front and "Banjo Kotobuki Kosmosu" in Namie, Fukushima Prefecture. Junmai Ginjo...a fruity sake with a nice aroma. Osaka Oden is also delicious.
It's been a very long time since I've had a Banjo Kotobuki: ❗️
This sake is the god of Fukushima FM and sake
Kenji Suzuki, the god of sake (sorry 😅 didn't know that
I didn't know that 🙏).

I don't think it has much of an aroma 🤔.
The taste is slightly peachy.
It has a refreshing yet umami taste.
and the aftertaste is dry. ❗️
I paired it with a chige hot pot (chige nabe) this time.
It was a good match.
It's a delicious sake that goes well with any meal 😊.
