From the impression of the bottle and the label comment, you would think it was a clean and clear sake, but once you take a sip, you are hit hard with the impact of a dry sake 🍶.

It was an eye-opener in a way 🍶.
This year, too, the three-year aged sake "Momiji" was released from the brewery.
First, it was served cold. It tastes mellower than usual this year. I had cumin edamame with chili pepper as a snack, and it was just as strong as the other dishes I had!
Next time, let's drink it heated. The recommended temperatures are 15°C and 40°C.
This is the sixth type of Kirinzan.
I drank Kirinzan at Kongoan in Jimbocho, Tokyo, before, but that one was traditional dry, known as "Denkara," while this one is super dry.
This one is much spicier.
The sharpness is also excellent. This is sake! It's like "This is sake!
