Today we had a successful "Hare Day" event as a couple, so we opened a bottle of this sake we had bought and toasted 🥂.
It has a rosé wine-like hue and a winey, grapey aroma 🍷.
The mouth feel is like drinking champagne, with a gaseous, dry mouthfeel and wine-like acidity.
You don't feel like you're drinking sake.
It's a 9% low-alcohol type, and it's the perfect sake for a toast. ⭕️
It was a crown type, so I'm a little concerned that I have to drink it up once I open it, but it's easy to drink so I guess it doesn't matter 😆.
Hi Jay & Nobby.
Thank you 😊
We just achieved what we had set out to do as a couple: ⭕️
It's really strange that it tastes like champagne even though it's sake 🫢.
At Kinko's Bay in Obukuro.
The sweetness and acidity are not too assertive at the beginning.
After that, the alcohol rushes through.
It is a little tangy on the tongue.

I just can't buy SAKE sold at room temperature, the end result of a pathological raw sake devotee.
Jacket price ... 3/10
Purple, green, and yellow on a cyan background...something about this might cause hygiene problems.
Ki ... 15/20
The sound of tok-tokkus when pouring is good, the smell is a faint Alc malt odor, and the acidity converges on the tip of the tongue.
The initial ama-enjoyment speed is a little short on RPM.
Sei... 15/20
While retaining the chilliness on the tip of the tongue, the freshness of the sake shifts to the assertion of sweetness; it is a pity that the flavor does not fully take hold on the tongue.
Turning point ... 16/20
The reason why it does not cling to the tongue is because of the freshness of the sake, and the burning effect of its youthfulness.
Yui ... 17/20
The sweetness at the beginning and at the end is almost the same, but the lack of viscosity gives it a stick ball feeling.
Cost performance ... 7/10
It is not too strong, and there is no cloying taste.
The aftertaste...the rain is sourness, the aftertaste is the sky after the rain...isn't it poetic?

The aroma is of fresh apples and pears.
The taste is also consistent, clear and dry with acidity. The sugar content is also low.
Personally, I like it very much because it can be enjoyed on its own and is easy to match with food.
