Poured into a glass, the aroma is quite gorgeous and fruity. However, the first impression when you drink it is different: it is refreshingly dry.
I don't usually drink sake with alcohol, but I wonder if this gorgeous aroma is a result of that.
It is also delicious.
My favorite degree (self-assessment)
★★★★★★☆☆☆☆
Hourai Junmai Daiginjo Shirootoko
Polishing ratio 45
Chilled, it goes in smoothly.
It has a slight impression of sweetness.
I tried it with Masu, but it seems to go well with a wine glass.
I bought and drank Gifu Prefecture sake for probably the first time to fill in the map. My first sip was rich and fruity in flavor, with lots of umami and I thought it was complete without any snacks. It is a different world from the kind of sake I usually drink during dinner. It was so hot in Sendai today that I turned on the air conditioner for the first time this year at the request of the wife while we were cooking dinner. Afterwards, we had our first tofu (Mrs. Yamanouchi's) with olive oil and horseradish. It is Hinode hard tofu from Chiba prefecture. I recommend it.
Hello Sasakamama3😃!
Congratulations on your first Gifu sake at Hourai ㊗️ and before you know it, you'll be over 200 check-ins ㊗️㊗️ double congratulations 🎉The hard tofu looks delicious too 🤗
Thank you. I am still sorting through the images. I am surprised at how much I drank. The hard tofu is very tasty and I bought some today and will have some.

The thickening sensation is stopped at the front, and the smoothness of the throat is mild and smooth.
The sweetness is strong, and the sourness and alcohol taste come in afterwards and make you feel a bit uneasy.
Even though the alcohol content is 17%, it is so tasty that you might drink too much and get drunk easily.
The Daiginjo glass gives it a gorgeous flavor after drinking.

I'm writing this while shaking from the shock of being told by Matsuchiyo-san that my hands are shaking🤣.
I found it in a refrigerator in the sake department of Aeon.
They also sold Junmai Ginjo, but according to the official website, Junmai is sweeter, so I bought this one!
It's slightly sweet and juicy sweet-tasting, but not fruity while drinking. I got the impression that it converges with bitterness in the latter half of the bottle. Not as sweet as I expected 🤔.
The aroma in the nose after drinking is quite fruity.
One of the items brought in after the volunteer work was completed in Yokohama.
The jacket has simple but impactful brush strokes.
If you look closely, you can see the word "Hourai" on the left shoulder.
I had no doubt because Hourai is my favorite restaurant,
I was surprised at how delicious it was! It's mellow.
I hadn't been to the restaurant for half a year, but I had a wonderful encounter with a volunteer.
