It has a mysterious ginjo aroma and flavor, with a strong acidity and a refreshing aftertaste.
A souvenir from my trip to Akita, at Sugakyu Shoten near Eiraku Shokudo. Akita's local sake festival. I was attracted by the No. 6 yeast, so I went ahead and bought one.
As is typical of yeast No. 6, the sake had a sour taste. The next day it was mellower and tastier.
It reminded me of the tuna, musuko and tarako I had at the Akita market. ☺️

This is a summer draft sake with "water" as its theme.
It has a strong flavor, but it tastes light. It is also cool to the eye. Delicious.

🍶I felt grapes for a moment. I thought I felt grapes for a moment, and then I drank it while savoring it. I thought I felt grapes for a moment and continued drinking, savoring the taste. It may have been my imagination, but in any case, it was delicious, with a good balance of sweet and spicy and umami.

First of all, the label is really cute 💖frogs are dancing🎶I looked closely at the lid ...... and found that it is the brewery that makes Amano-no-do in Akita! (≧▽≦)
It is a sake that is easy to drink, calm, and friendly, while still being gorgeous! I think it would be good for a quiet nightcap alone on a frog-crying night. It is very delicious!
Serve with striped horse mackerel sashimi, tororo tuna tataki, una onigiri, and lettuce salad!

Sweet and sour without a sense of fizz.
A gorgeous taste escapes from the nose.
It has a strong sweetness, but also has a strong acidity, astringency, and bitterness, with a dry and crisp finish.
After drinking, the sweetness and graininess remain slightly.
