JIRO
Purchased at the sake department of Ropia in Hirosaki.
Surprisingly, there are no liquor stores or supermarkets around Hirosaki Station, which is a problem if you want to buy local sake as a souvenir.
The aroma is wonderful.
The taste is light, with a soft, unrefined sweetness, a bit of bitterness, and a touch of sourness.
It is not too strong in character, so it can be drunk as a mid-meal sake and will not interfere with a meal.
It is a good match with light snacks such as yakko, since it was completely defeated when drunk with Akita's Iburi Gakko.
