Sake I buy on days when I feel like having a good drink today. Repeat.
Good umami, aroma, sharpness, and price. I will continue to buy it in the future.
5/5
Sawaya Matsumoto is hard to drink because it is not seen locally.
This one also has a clean, sharp impression that will not make you tired of drinking.
It seems to go well with a variety of dishes.
Curiosity got the better of me with a label I'd never seen before...
Aged for 3 years...? It was so refreshing and sharp that I thought it was a lie!
And it's more strongly carbonated than slightly carbonated!
Carbonation at the moment of drinking, I personally don't feel any sweetness, and the aftertaste lingers for a while after drinking.
After the third sip, the carbonation is gone and it becomes mellow and easy to drink.
Moribari" by Sawataniya Matsumoto in Kyoto, Japan.
It was a delicious sake with a particularly strong rice flavor and an addictive bitterness and depth of flavor that is the very essence of Japanese sake 😋.
