I had never seen this brand before, so I couldn't resist buying it. This is a sake brewery in Shunan City, Yamaguchi. There are about 1,400 sake breweries in Japan, so it's no wonder that there are breweries and brands that I don't know (there are more than 1,000 here). Even if I were to drink one brand every day for the rest of my life, it would take me almost 30 years (^_^;) It's simply impossible. This was an aside.
The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma is distinctive. I wonder what it is, is it the aroma of rice? In total, the aroma is fluffy, the taste is tangy, and the sweetness is warm. I think it's delicious.

Sake Brewer's Squeezed Sake Suetsubuhana
Sake made by carefully squeezing the sake mother and bottling it.
This is a low-alcohol, slightly fizzy sake, so we poured it into a champagne glass and had it as an aperitif🥂.
It has a refreshing sweet and sour aroma and taste like a cider or sparkling wine.
It is suitable for sake beginners. It's easy to drink.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Rice: 100% Yamadanishiki (from Yamaguchi prefecture)

It has a refreshing fruit aroma like pineapple.
As soon as you put it in your mouth, you can feel the refreshing and firm sweetness, and the bitterness and acidity appear along with the mild flavor.
In the aftertaste, all of these flavors gradually disappear.
There are many colors in one sip, and it is a dramatic sake.
Good evening Oyajii, nice to meet you!
Thank you for your comment!
This was expensive...! LOL!
I think it's a sweet sake, but it's got a dry, refreshing feel to it, so it was interesting!
It's an unrefined sake, so I thought the sweetness would be pronounced, but the taste is dry.
The aftertaste has a slight sweetness to it.
But it's refreshing and you don't get tired of drinking it, so you'll keep going for two or three glasses of sake.
It doesn't get tired of drinking, so you can drink two or three glasses of sake at a time.
Despite the subdued ginjo aroma, the moment it touches your tongue, you get a powerful sweetness like a thick pineapple. The slight bitterness is pleasant, and it doesn't feel persistent as it goes down your throat.
It's a gem that goes down more smoothly than the impression on the palate.
