It seems to be the first new sake since the earthquake.
I had not bought it before because I was afraid of the high alcohol content, but I bought it because it was delicious after drinking it at a tasting event held by Icoma-san.
There is no indication on the label, but the rice polishing ratio is written on the bottle, so I guess it is a honjozo?
Unlike the image, it has a floral sweetness. It is light and easy to drink without feeling the alcohol content. This is a dangerous one because it seems to be easy to drink.
It's a bit heavy, but compared to Morinori's Kami-Sen, Kansai Nama-Zume-Genshu, and Kannon-Shita, it feels lighter.
It does have a certain alu-ness to it in the aftertaste, though.
The sake level seems to be about -6.
It's been a long time since I've had a bottle of Sogen!
It is a delicious sake that is always full of the charm of rice.
Juicy and drinkable, I will share the evening with one of my favorite bottles.
The dinner was a fish dish, so it was a good combination!
I'll have a sip of it with a boar's mouth!
I bought a bottle of Sogen that was left in the store right after the new year, hoping that it would be of some help to the disaster-stricken areas.
It tastes deliciously spicy, with a high alcohol content (18%) because it is a draft sake. It tastes like a refreshing, slightly thick sake. I'm not sure how to describe it, but that's what it tastes like.
It is out of my usual taste, but I think it is good, and depending on your taste, it may be very tasty.
After 3 days, I can taste a hint of sweetness. Yes, it is good.
It was the recommended brand at the restaurant I was taken to, so I ordered it after a long time!
The soft taste of rice with a touch of fruity flavor spread from the mouth.
When you open your mouth, there is a gulp of alcohol.
The label on the back reads 18 degrees.
As the day goes by, the alcohol feeling goes away and the spiciness increases.
I heated up the last goupe of sake, and the umami flavor grew, but the spiciness was still there.
This is a sake from Okunoto. I bought this sake at my favorite store in Kuritaya, Yokohama. It tastes a little sweet, but if the rice is from Ishikawa and the sake is brewed in Okunoto, it is the sake to drink now. The more I drink it, the better it tastes, and I will continue to look for Noto sake to drink in the future. It was a slightly colored, lukewarm sake.

Impression: Complex flavor with a grounded center of gravity.
Heavy from the attack. It is umami type.
It has a high alcohol content, but the umami and richness come with it slowly.
It is a taste that comes into its own in the latter half of the meal.
We enjoyed it with a dish of albacore oden in a thick broth.
