A nearby station was selling Niigata's best sake, so I was allowed to sample and choose one.
It was labeled as having a sake degree of -40.0, and the clerk introduced it to me by saying, "It's like wine.
When we poured it into a well-chilled glass and enjoyed it, it was indeed like a sweet white wine, but with a gentle rice-derived mouthfeel.
It also has a sourness like calpis or yogurt, and because it is so sweet, one should be careful not to drink too much.
It paired perfectly with the truffle cookies that I had carefully stored in the refrigerator to accompany the wine.
It seems to be good to drink as an aperitif.
Souvenirs from Niigata❤️ distinctive sake with a sour taste like yogurt🍶.
I drank Haagen-Dazs vanilla and GODIVA chocolate chip vanilla together and it was gone in seconds for real.
Especially with the Haagen vanilla, it was divine😘.
I should have bought another bottle.
