About 10 days ago, I bought this sake and a bottle of nigori sake at the sake counter because the brewer who was there tasting and selling the sake seemed to have some free time on his hands. When I opened the bottle, it had a fruity aroma with a hint of apple and a soft, slightly sweet taste.
I opened a bottle of "Umakoi", the first autumn-aged sake from "Asakai", which has been our family's New Year's sake.
It has a mellow taste with a strong, robust flavor. It seems like it would go perfectly with grilled, fatty, salt-crusted swordfish in the fall.
The alcohol content is a little high at 17%, but you can drink it without worrying about the alcohol content. Delicious. ‼️

I was convinced by the aroma.
It's been a long time since I've had such a strong sweet flavor.
It was too good 🍶Thank you very much for your kindness.

A dry sake with a nice sharpness.
However, it has a rich and oily texture.
I paired it with grilled eye sashimi, but the bitterness was neutralized and it was very tasty.
A good sake.
