First, I was surprised at the color like mirin (sweet sake). I was surprised at the sweetness and acidity like dessert wine. It is easy to drink and dangerous sake with no sake-like taste at all!
This is a gem from Shima Onsen in Gunma Prefecture. I had never seen this sake before, and there were several varieties, but I bought this one that looked fruity...what is this? It tasted slightly like soy sauce. It is fruity, sour, and full of flavor, but it tastes like soy sauce. It's so much soy sauce that no other flavors come in...
Is it the taste of koji? I'm sure it was stored properly at home...
Sake to enjoy the unexpected finish that only additive-free sake can provide.
I chilled it.
Refreshing aroma with a hint of vinegar. The light sweetness is followed by an intense and full-bodied acidity. The not-too-heavy mouthfeel and refreshing aftertaste make it a good match with food. Today I served it with horse mackerel sashimi.
While drinking it, I felt like the rainy season was over.
Preference ★★★★☆
Gentle sweetness as described on the label.
The clean aftertaste is not so much sharp as it is gentle all the way through, with an image of a quick receding.
Recommendation! Quite peculiar, but easy to drink with a good balance of acidity and flavor. Easy to match with any snacks, but maybe not with acidic ones. Stewed dishes.

Koji: Yellow Koji for Shochu, White Night
At JapaneseBarKATSU after the Gunma sake festival. The taste was suitable for the end of Jyoshu Bishu!
Welcome to our home
Tsuchida F" by Tsuchida Shuzo
Polishing ratio 90%. Yellow malted rice for shochu is used for this sake.
When poured into a glass, it is almost like green tea.
When you take a sip, it tastes like a white wine.
It has a yogurt-like sweetness and a refreshing acidity. The sweetness is white wine-like and slightly bitter.
To accompany the majestic Tsuchida sake, we prepared Wakahiro's grilled mackerel zushi.
The pairing of the dark flavor of this grilled mackerel sushi and "F" was wonderful.
It was well chilled, so I will loosen it up a bit and enjoy it tomorrow.
