Izakaya Monorail Niigata Sake 2️⃣
The Niigata Sake we had this time was all made from Gohyakumangoku 😀.
It is indeed a sake from a cold region of Japan 😀.
I knew the name of Ayu Masamune before, but I had passed it by thinking it was Niigata's dry sake, but I was surprised when I drank it for the first time this time ‼️🤣.
It was a delicious sake with a good balance of sweetness, sourness and bitterness.
Preconceptions and assumptions are not good 😅.
My wife chose this sake!
I heard it's the best recommendation of the owner of the restaurant 😀.
It's a dark nigori (a dark sake) but not too sweet, and it's okay to drink it with food ❔.

Jay & Nobby.
Yes, I went through 300 check-ins without realizing it. I was just thinking about it 🤭.
Actually, I was trying to figure out which drink to use to get to the 300 check-in.
I'll let you know about that drink...

Gentle and smooth brewing water, thin but fresh and refreshing pear-like sweetness.
The first nigori sake in my life.
It is a delicious and dangerous sake that can be drunk smoothly with a shwashy taste.
I wish they would release it all year round.
I will definitely buy it again next year.
