I bought this in the spring at the Ponshukan in Nagaoka! I was surprised at how bananas-like it was the first time I drank it, and since then I buy it every time I go to Niigata 🙂. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is clear and mineral like water. The mouthfeel is mellow and smooth, with banana and caramel-like mellow and old sake-like flavors! Yet, the aftertaste disappears quickly. The gap between the flavor and the opposite, the quality of the sake, which is smooth and light like Niigata sake, is as unbearable as ever ✨. It's less bananasweet than the first time I drank it, but I still love the heavy-light pull of it👍. I hope to go back to the Niigata area after next winter!

This sake is sold at a business supermarket. I bought it to see what it was like. It's really strong! Refreshing! No depth! I had the impression that it was a strong type of chuhai. However, it's surprisingly good as a mid-meal drink. It's also good served hot. It's not to be underestimated.
