I heard that the rice polishing ratio is 90%, and wondered if it might have a strong acidic taste. When I drank it, I thought it might have a strong bitter taste, but no, it was mellow with a delicious taste of rice. I was surprised that it could taste like this!

Saijo Sake Festival. Sake Hiroba.
Shimane is proud of its Masamune🍶.
The color is quite amber. Almost brown🤎.
On the palate, it has a sweetness and a skittish, hackneyed flavor 😙.
Aged taste with a bit of alcohol and a thick flavor 😊.
This heavy flavor is majestic.
I was selfishly impressed that it might be the quintessential Masamune 🥹.
Nice Masamune👍quintessential Masamune👍
It seems to be made from rice.
It's turning quite a lot of colors. Well, it's been at home all summer.
The aroma is sweet! Mirin? Mirin? The aroma is so sweet that it is not uncomfortable as a sake. The rest is ripe aroma. Massroom, black tea.
It tastes like heated sake. It is recommended to be served at room temperature, but isn't it too peculiar? Sourness and astringency are the main flavors. It would go well with sweet boiled vegetables.
Heating up the sake.
The balance of flavors doesn't change much. There's something prickly about it, but what is this?
It's too astringent to pair with today's meals. However, if you have a meal with a lot of sweet flavors like Osechi, such as simmered dishes, black beans, and vinegared dishes, this sake is very good.
I really think that sake is only as good as the food it is served with.
