It was a hot topic on social networking sites for a while. Argo. It has a sweet taste of rice. It is like apple juice, but the aftertaste may be a bit lacking. It goes well with Shine Muscat!

Gekkeikan Argo. A brewery in Fushimi Ward, Kyoto. Sake with 5% alcohol by volume. Modest aroma, gentle rice flavor and acidity, and a crisp and clean finish. acidity, and a refreshingly crisp finish. Almost zero alcohol content, lychee-like refreshing and mellow umami, with a crisp and clean finish. #Japanese Sake

I kind of bought it. It was a disaster for my wife and I😅. It's like a diluted acerola type juice. On the second day, the acidity was slightly reduced. It's like thin shiso juice. Homemade shiso juice is better 😅

シロタマ
I used to make wine by pressing grapes I bought at the supermarket (this was when I lived in Hong Kong, so please bear with me for reporting it). This Argo reminds me of the taste of that wine when I tasted it in the process of brewing. Sweet, sour, half juice. The package of 300 ml with 5% alcohol content is almost the same as a can of beer, which is about 15 ml of alcohol. I wonder if this is what the public needs. With a normal sake, one cup of 15% alcohol content jumps to 27 ml, about twice the amount of alcohol (which is beyond the capacity of Japanese people to metabolize alcohol). In my case, this does not stop at one drink every day, and one drink is not enough. In order to continue to enjoy sake in good health, I must have the courage to put down the cup after one gou.

I bought it because I was curious, it was 300 ml, and I liked the name Argo. It is not bad. It is easy to drink and has a good acidity. It tastes like something I've had before but can't remember what it was 🤔 If I had to guess, I'd say it's like a diluted sweet white wine. I like this new attempt, typical of a major company 😊.

I found this at a local supermarket and bought it. I was curious about it, so I decided to drink it. The aroma is apple-like! It is easy to drink, as expected for a 5% alcohol content, and has almost no liquor-like taste! Tastes very sweet and sour. I drank it chilled, but I thought it would be easier to drink it closer to room temperature if you don't like it because of the sourness that hits the palate. The lingering rice-like flavor is interesting! If you are conscious of the aroma, it is like apple juice. If you are not conscious of the aroma, it is like sweet yogurt whey. It was an interesting sake.

Lactobacillus like beverage Lingering pleasant aroma of rice It may not be enough for sake lovers but it is good for personal casual drinking. Even people who don't like sake can drink it.

I was curious to see your post on Salmon Wawa! I couldn't find it at my local Lawson and Family Mart. I went to the supermarket and they had it! Argo has 5% alcohol, so Alcoholgo, Argo, hooray! I wonder if it is lol. Anyway, it is easy to drink! This acidity... I often encounter it these days. It was a refreshing taste like Tensho > Hiran > Argo. I drank it in no time!

The acidity is harsh. However, the alcohol does not seem harsh, and it is easy to drink. I don't like the initial sourness, but once in the mouth, it is easy to drink. It is neither sweet nor dry.

I was curious about it, so I bought it. It is indeed easy to drink! If I had imagined it in the past, I would have been surprised 🍶. No sense of punishment at all! This way, I didn't become a sake hater: ☺️

It has been a while since I smoked potato chips, cheese, and edamame and served them with sake "Argo". Argo" had a stylish bottle design and was easy to drink, but... it was as thin as low-fat milk after drinking extra thick milk (tears).

Yesterday, we attended an extravagant sake drinking party during the day, and by the time we arrived home after 7:00, Kaorin was already drunk and immediately fell asleep 🤣. Thanks to this, we woke up early this morning and decided to go for a walk, so we started with two kinds of low alcohol 😀. We bought an Italian picnic set in the Expo Park and had it at a place where we could see the autumn leaves 🍁. First of all, we started with a 5 percent alcohol Argo, which has been the talk of the town for a while now 😀. Not only is the alcohol low, but the sake feeling and taste are all very light 😀. It may be a good opportunity for people who don't like sake to start drinking it, but I'm not sure if it will make them like sake or not 🤣.

Thank you Yasbay & Kaorin for yesterday 😊It was a dreamy drinking party😻 You two are tough after yesterday 😳and I love the picnic set! It's quintessential that you have cups to compare drinks...

Hi Yasbay 😃You're walking in the morning the day after the year-end party, that's a quintessential ✨Argo I drank the other day too! It certainly gives the impression of being thin. More importantly, isn't the top left of the image a honey potato grape 😆 I've been wanting to try it ⁉️ but haven't gotten around to it yet 😆.

Good evening, Yasube! I'm sure it's great that you started walking the morning after the offline meeting, but I'm surprised that you drank even more in the afternoon even though you were low on alcohol 😳I'm sure Kansai is a great place to be 😆 I've been dead all day with a hangover 🤢😓 here.

Hi Wakata 😀 In our family we have a tradition❓ that we recover faster if we are physically active, so walking the day after drinking is a must 🤣. Orin, who said she had no appetite, found it at the family store in front of the Expo Park!

Hi Jay & Nobby 😀 I was fine this time because I didn't attend the after-party thanks to Kaorin crashing early 🤣. And with this low-alcoholic drink, it might be just right for a casual welcome drink😇.

Hi Robin 😀 It was a pleasure to meet you for the first time😇 I had a bit of a blunder after my last drinking session, so I might have saved a lot this time 🤣. Low alcohol is the perfect pick-me-up drink 😀.
