Ponshu-kan is directly connected to Niigata Station. If you like Japanese sake, you can spend three days here. I tried various kinds of sake at the sake tasting corner. The lineup was centered around classic types of medium to dry sake. As a person who usually chooses modern type, I found something new!
The aroma is subdued. The mouthfeel is relatively dry, with an immediate strong acidity. The aftertaste is lingering and alcoholic.
