Impression: Elegant, light and umami.
The aroma is of steamed rice and dairy products, which gives the impression of Niigata's light and dry taste. The ginjo aroma is mild. In the mouth, it has a surprisingly strong body that one would not expect from the alcohol content. There are some spreading sweetness and chocolate nuances, which may be the difference between this and Ihyakumangoku.
In conclusion, this is a food sake type that combines the clarity typical of Niigata with the fullness derived from Koshitanrei, and has a classical sense of security and a modern sense of transparency.
Pairing] Japanese cuisine with dashi broth in general, grilled white fish with salt, tempura, cold tofu, lightly seasoned simmered dishes, etc.

Another cup of sake 🍶.
Unlike yesterday, as the name suggests, it is soft!
I like to drink another cup of sake in the same cup that I drank it in recently 🤭.
It's a cup of Niigata souvenir 🍶.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of souvenirs at convenience stores in train stations, so it's perfect if you are in need of souvenirs 👌
Even though it's a souvenir, I bought it for myself✨.
This one is dry, crisp and easy to drink!
I have another one, so I'll have to compare them 🍶!
