Asakai's Suijin is a very dry sake, but it is focused on retaining its umami flavor.
Recommended by the restaurant, we had it lukewarm.
It is a good sake to complement seafood such as amaebi and aji (horse mackerel).
It is important to have a sake that complements your meal.

Preferred ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
The 7th cup of the event.
Made with Iwate's original sake rice, Yui no Kou.
We heard a recommendation for a sweet sake, so we went with this one after hesitating between it and the top-rated Asahi-Ougen Yamadanishiki.
It has a moderate sweetness and a clean and beautiful mouthfeel.
It was fun to compare it with the Black Style, which is characterized by its mellow and sour taste.
Incidentally, the first time he drank the Gokujo Asahi Fan Yamadanishiki, he said he cried because it was so delicious, so I am going to try it later.

The 6th drink of the event.
Bottom left of the image, black style.
The sake rice is Aizan, which I like. It is called Black Style because it is made with black malted rice instead of yellow malted rice.
As the story goes, it is characterized by a strong sour taste. I was surprised by the aroma, which was a bit like a black vinegar drink, and was a bit worried.
However, when I put it in my mouth, it was not as strong as I imagined from the aroma, but mildly sour, sweet and sour, and delicious.
It was a sake of a type I had never had before, but the sourness was addictive.
It was the best hit of the day for both my husband and me.
Sparkling
The aroma was like amazake, and it was sweet to drink, and I thought it would have tasted better if it had been properly chilled.
I also regretted that it wasn't meant to be drunk while eating a meal.
Dry sake 🍶 in front of my usual drinking buddies.
A walk into the autumn night 🐕 to thank them for accompanying me for a delicious 👀 drink that didn't make my eyes roll as much as I thought it would.
The second small bottle of the trip (≧▽≦) This is the one I brought!
It was a sweet and mild sake! This one is delicious too! With grilled squid somen!
