Here is today's drink 💁.
It is Shirobotan Frozen Junmai Namaishu Hyoka from Hiroshima.
The acidity is not too assertive from the mouthfeel and umami, which is only possible with nama-shu...it's a mellow feeling sake. ☺️
I chose this with the Sanfrecce Hiroshima exterior. It tastes sweet, but it's nice that it's a partial support fund for Sanfrecce Hiroshima! Reading the description, the brewery has a long history. It was founded in 1675 (Empo 3), which is 300 years ago! It's wonderful that they have been able to keep it alive.
What is this app's "choose a group" thing? I'm curious about the "Cup Sake Club" that fits the bill perfectly...
[Sake brewer's description].
This sake has a fine taste and a clean, refreshing taste. It is a sweet sake with a crisp finish.
Good evening, Mr. Cup Sake as a souvenir of your trip! I am a young person who started Sake-no-wa as a reminder, too, but I choose a group at random that seems to fit each check-in. Most of the time, it is a home drinking club, lol.

It is nice to meet you! Thank you for your comment! I thought I would have to join a group or something, but I see that you can easily link to a group. I'll give it a try next time. I also drink at home.

Purchased at Takatsuki Seibu. This is a delicious sake from Hiroshima that I sometimes have a craving for. The sake degree is +2 on the official website now, so maybe it depends on the brewing year.

🌾Yamada Nishiki 🅰️13 degrees
A packaged sake with a lower alcohol content and a lower price. Shirobotan is famous for its sweet taste. This is an odd kind of sake and this is a good one.

I tasted several other kinds, but I was in such a rush that I didn't take any pictures again. But this one was exceptional! It was rich and mild, with a good balance of sweetness and spiciness. I really wanted to buy some to take home, but the price was too high: ......
