Daiginjo is also delicious.
Aromatic, but with a slight taste of brewer's alcohol.
I wonder if it is better suited for after dinner than during dinner.

#Japanese Sake
Mellow sake. It has a mysterious aroma! I don't know what to call it...a vegetal aroma? The flavor is concentrated and robust.
It was a bit hard to drink by itself, but it is delicious as a food sake!
Limited Jurakudai
Sweet at first! Different from refreshing?
It's soooo sweet! It's sweet...doesn't it change?
At the end, there's a hint of spiciness or cleanness that's typical of sake, but it's really subtle.
As you continue drinking, the balance comes out! Round and sweet? But not round at the end!
Standard Jurakudai
This is a similar strain, but a bit cleaner or spicier!
The first mouthfeel is sweet! Like the air you breathe!
The first mouthfeel of this one is round! I wonder if it finishes clean?
