Cold sake. Mellow, and the aged taste is wonderful. It is good to find something you like in a bottle, so you can repeat it in the future. Happy end of a three-day weekend!
First bottle, for some reason I chose the 2 year aged one as recommended and drank it cold. It started out sweet and easy to drink. The umami acidity in the aftertaste is wonderful!

Sake/river
We had a meeting for work and had a drink at this restaurant.
We started with a hiyaoroshi of Ishikawa "Sogen" 😆.
The sake was delicious and sour with a touch of spiciness.
The meal and conversation were lively 😁.
I brought home with me my favorite word, which is less common this time of year, "unfiltered, raw sake" 😄 and my first Sogen.
It is very tasty with umami, acidity, bitterness and the tangy texture typical of namaishu.
It had the richness of a junmai sake, but it was also very drinkable! Thank you very much for the meal 😊.
Sogen Notonokuni
The aroma is fragrant.
It has a sweet taste, but it does not leave a lingering sensation in the throat.
It also has a baked sweet potato taste.
