Mitsui no Kotobuki, exclusive for glasses: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
ALC 15 degrees
This is a sake brewed and shipped from 7 different breweries, each brewed by a master brewer who wears glasses. I have never come across this one before, and I wonder when I will be able to get the complete set 😱.
There is almost no aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, you feel a slightly peculiar sourness and bitterness.
I tried it with snacks as a food wine, but personally it was a 3 star 😅.

Like the label on the mushroom 🍄🟫, I thought it would taste like that because it has the name porcini in it, but it didn't smell like mushrooms at all 😆.
I thought it might be slightly yellowish and peculiar, but it wasn't like that, it was dry and tasty.
