It was Ryoma Sakamoto's birthday, so I opened a bottle of this sake.
(I remembered it in the morning of the day and bought a bottle on the way home, thinking that it was a Tosa sake. ㊙️)
The aroma is more fruity than I imagined. A little sourness. It is quite faint.
When you drink it, the umami of the rice comes gradually, but it cuts off before it spreads too much. This is a nice dry sake 🍶 It is a classic dry sake for when you want a dry sake. I think I would like to pair it with bonito.
It has no strange sweetness, so you can drink it with Japanese food for a long time. It was a sake that I enjoyed deeply.
By the way, I was looking up Sakamoto Ryoma while drinking this sake, and found out that he died on the same day, November 15. (Both are on the lunar calendar).
Good morning, Kotaro 😃.
I see that 11/15 is your birthday and the anniversary of your death 😳I've only had Funakakuhasaku outside 😅I understand why you would want to drink it with bonito 🤗It's a good food sake 😚.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ☀️
I was surprised to see that Ryoma's birth and death dates are both on November 15 👀.
After all, Kochi's dry sake is bonito 👍It's like a middle-of-the-road food sake without the peculiarities, and it goes well with both sake and food: ☺️

I had leftover sashimi, so I ordered it as an additional dry sake.
It has an attack, but after that it is gentler than I expected. However, I may be drunk when I feel this is sweet, so I will re-evaluate the next time I encounter it again.
That's it for today.
I ordered this dish when I was bored with wine at a dinner with guests from overseas.
It is an extremely dry junmai sake with a high aroma and a great sharpness, with a flavor that expands in the mouth and cuts smoothly. It is dry and delicious! This is a standard sake.

Once again, "What is light and dry?" I looked up the following.
≪It is a dry sake with a refreshing and sharp taste. It is described as "refreshing, crisp and dry.
I see~~~!
This sake is truly light and dry.
I had it with sashimi.
It is a really good sake~~!
It is a member of Kochi's sake Shibotan (?). It is said to be a member of Shibotan, a Kochi sake.
The mouthfeel is clean and just the right amount of dryness that does not interfere with the food. It is more ricey than fruity 🌾.
