Purchased at a local liquor store. I was attracted by the stylish name and the label, which says it is a sake like white wine. It is said to go well with meat and cheese, but unfortunately, today's entrée was grilled hokke and grilled vegetables. The aroma is not very strong. It has a light taste with a strong acidity like white wine. I personally don't like the strong acidity, but it is a good wine to drink during a meal because you can feel the umami of rice in the latter half of the wine.

Score ☆☆☆☆ I found a drink that looked a little interesting and popped it in ☝️ lol I've tried 1200 times to make a new sake that fits with modern food. The 888th one was the best, hence the name. The aroma is banana🍌-like, but with a hint of sourness. Taste is sour as expected 😅. It has a sake-like taste, but it's sourness is trying to make it more like a white wine. Not the same as juicy sourness 💦. It's kind of a deliberate sourness. There is some sweetness, but not enough umami. Sweet and sour but dry structure. I wonder if this means it is adapted to the modern diet 🤔. Taste is not rounded, a bit hard to drink for me personally, even though it's a bottle 😅. Third image. Local chain with multiple locations in Akita and Iwate 🍜. This restaurant's recommended Nanban Ramen🍜. Pork bone soy sauce, sesame oil and plenty of pepper seasoned with green onion Y(´▽ `)Y Mmmm 🤔 Not bad but not super tasty either lol It's just like 888 🤣. But the ramen store is popular, even around 7pm on a Friday night it was packed 🈵 and there were a few people waiting 😳

Hi T.KISO 😃 Is it 888/1200 😳I quit with this last one! I'm also curious about the taste of the 1200th bottle 😅888 ramen🍜 is very popular! So does that mean 888🍶 will be popular with the general public🤔?

Bottle 163. The wine-like acidity is noticeable, but the sake-like aroma also rises well.

I bought one of several that I drank at Ponshukan in Echigo-Yuzawa, one of the lighter ones that I liked. This liquor is like wine and is wrapped in a sweet aroma. Satisfied by the smell. I can guzzle it, but I have to be careful. Toei, Ojiya City, Niigata Prefecture Niigata famous sake N-888 The new wave sake

I bought it at a certain supermarket. It is clean without any cloying taste, but fruity and very palatable. It is a perfect accompaniment to a meal!

The second bottle was also from a friend's house. It is fruity, has a characteristic acidity, and is sharp, so it was another delicious sake that I couldn't stop drinking. By the way, the number 888 was chosen because of the fact that of the 1,200 times it was made, the 888th time was the closest to the ideal.

Ponshukan was too much fun, I wish the size of the cups were 5 times bigger! I want to be there from opening to closing.
