Today, I went out to buy alcohol 🚗 and while I was there... I chose to try "Gekkeikan Argo" 😅 which was talked about for a while 😅 a long time ago.
I chose to try "Gekkeikan Argo" 🍶😊.
First of all, I'll have it on the rocks as recommended.
Mmmm... perfect for an introduction to Sake ⁉️
No, no 💦 it's a bit weak to feel the sake 😅.
But it's sweet and easy to drink so it might be good 🥰.
Saw it in a convenience store and bought it.
Low alcohol sake with 5% alcohol content
I'm not a strong sake drinker, so I get a little drunk after 2-3 gos of sake, but this one looks like it won't get me drunk at all!
It's like a juice!
No "shwashy" feeling, sweetness comes first, then sourness.
The taste does not linger so much.
It tastes like sakekasu (sake lees), and it's a taste of sake.
There is a slightly peculiar aroma in the nose (a little bit bitter).
I wish all sake were this low in alcohol content so I could try different flavors...
Serve with Gouda cheese and salmon kimchi
The cheese has a peculiar aroma that disappears nicely and goes well with the sake.
Kimchi may not be a good match because the taste is too strong and all you can taste is the sourness of the argos.
It has a strong sweetness, but also has a moderate acidity.
The smoothness of the wine makes it easy to drink, but the low alcohol content makes it easy to drink.
It is low in alcohol (5%), so it is quite easy to drink, and I thought it was a delicious sake perfect for summer, with just the right amount of sweetness and lactic acidity that makes it drinkable like water on the rocks.
I tried it and I agree with the concept of low alcohol and easy to drink for beginners at any time, the taste is very sour and could be improved a little more.
Refreshing sweetness and acidity
And yet the umami is strong.
At first, the taste is a bit thin, but as you drink it and get used to it, it is surprisingly good.
It is good for a mealtime drink.
5% alcohol by volume, so it's not too much alcohol...
Easy to understand 😄.
I tasted Mr. Argo, which was much talked about.
To a sake drinker, it felt watery and light.
I'm not sure if it can really be called sake, but I respect the efforts of the makers to broaden the base of sake.
I am interested to see what kind of impression people who do not usually drink sake will have.
Argo, produced by Gekkeikan, has been on my mind for a long time. It is a unique sake with only rice and rice malt at this strength, in other words, it is a junmai type sake. The rice flavor is very light because it's just an ordinary sake, but it's perfect for those who are planning to debut a non-sparkling, authentic sake. The specifications of the sake, from the rice polishing ratio to the sake degree, were almost all unknown... However, I personally did not dislike the flavor, so I hope I can drink it again when I feel like it. After all, the world of sake is very deep! So, a new type of sake produced by a long-established sake brewery...delicious!
🌤️This is the time of year when there is a big difference in temperature between day and night, but I drink sake chilled in the refrigerator all year round 😋.
I wonder what it's like.
So I bought some.
It was on the shelf at the drugstore so it wasn't cold 🙁 so I put it in my parents' freezer and went ahead and had a beer 🍺.
I let it chill for a while and then drank it.

Grape🍇 juice
Almost no sake feeling
It's pretty sweet.
I wonder if the sweetness is intentionally brought to the forefront.
It is suitable for beginners.
It might be good to get people to like sake from this kind of place.
Thanks for the drink 😋.
