Very full and broad flavor(s).
The acidity and sweetness ratio are just right.
It is not heavy, but smooth, soft and mellow, as expected from the Sogen brewery.
The damage to the sake was severe, but the craftsmanship does not make you feel it at all!
It is stable at all temperatures from cold to hot, but I personally prefer it lukewarm.
The range of applications is extremely wide, and it's perfect for everything!
Mr. Ota is from Gakugei University.
He seems to have confidence in his heated sake, and even his former student came to visit him!
To go with the second grilled Sanma of the year, we paired Sogen Hiyaoroshi.
The taste was as expected, with sweetness and umami, and the freshness of Hachitan-Nishiki. The bitter flavor unique to Sogen on the palate matched the bitterness of the mackerel, and we enjoyed a moment of autumnal bliss.
