Today I went on a business trip to Toon City, Ehime Prefecture. I knew I couldn't avoid drinking sake from the brewery where I was going on my business trip. So I ordered some sake from the Shimada Sake Brewery at the restaurant where I was staying. I had wondered for some time which mountain was called "Kofuji," but the website clearly states it clearly. Here is a quote from the website. The name "Kofuji" was named after "Iyo no Kofuji," an island off the coast of Matsuyama that can be seen from the brewery in the distance.
My impression of the sake is that it is a bit unique from the first taste. It is very light and dry. It is a sake that does not interfere with meals.
I would have preferred to pair the kobudai sashimi (from Imabari Port) with a sake from Toyo, but I went with this sake from Chuyo Toon City, which I purchased most recently. Although the sake is super dry and has a Sake +12 rating, it does not feel that dry, and as the label says, it has a "refreshing taste" that does not interfere with the flavor of the food, making it light and easy to drink.
It was a gift from my husband's family in Ehime.
It's very dry. LOL!
The aroma reminded me of the sake my parents used to serve hot when I was a child.

Recommended by a liquor store. It says it's super dry, but it's not extremely spicy; it's refreshing, slightly sweet, and easy to drink. Yes, he was right.
Caramel-like aroma
Rich but crisp sweetness.
High acidity.
The flavor is moderate.
The mouthfeel is light.
The aftertaste is refreshing.
Taste like thin Shaoxing wine.
Crisp and easy to drink.
Goes well with ice cream

Kofuji Junmai! It's called Junmai, but it's polished to 55, so it's Junmai Ginjo. It's good!
A little sweet and easy to drink! My favorite flavor!
If you're tired, it's a match for today, I enjoyed it with fried pork and spinach with sweet vinegar.
