Although I travel to the north often,
I have often traveled to the north and found the food and drink to be clean and honest.
The food and drinks are clean and honest.
Shibata is such a sake.
A perfect food sake.
No flashy claims, but a strong umami flavor. Sweetness.
The label is plain and the taste is not spectacular.
But that's what makes it good. It is the right sake.
I'll go back to Shibata in the near future.

I liked Namara Choharashi, and I like this one too 😍.
[Thanks to my usual izakaya!]
Nostalgic local sake.
Mellow aroma of rice that gradually spreads and a crisp, spicy finish from the lingering aroma of sotolon.
Elegant finish beyond imagination. Umami.
Spicy!
When I heard from a liquor store that it was dry and tasty enough to be approved by the locals, I ordered it without a second thought 🍶.
As I had heard, it has no characteristic aroma and is clean, simple and dry!
