This is Gagakuyo, a famous sake from Sado Island. The name "Tama Hibiki" is said to be a Japanese word meaning "just a little while," and was given in the hope that people will have a pleasant time.
It is a low alcohol type of 14.5% pure sake, which is very trendy. It tastes like light calpis with a clean, refreshing lactic acid sweetness. It is easy to drink and very tasty. It has a gentle taste and is easy to drink.
I wonder if it goes well with white meat fish sashimi. It is also delicious on its own.

I ordered Masayo to drink after a long time and it was sealed 🤗.
It came with a weak sweetness and a strong acidity, and the end was sharp too 😎.
It has a really slight bitterness throughout with a solid bottom and a delicious aftertaste.
It is a complex flavor 🤔.
Combined with the microcarbonation, it was a refreshing high-calorie taste ✨.
Jay & Nobby, I'm with you 😃.
I think Masayo-san and Haikara are words that are close in age 😁.
I'd like to start a movement by actively using "haikara🌸" in Masayo's posts 😆.
Despite its sweet aroma, which has a hint of white grapes, it is mellow and dry! While feeling the umami of the rice... it has a good acidity and sharp dryness to it! The. Today, I'm enjoying it with "Chicken Sashimi" delivered from my relatives in Kagoshima........ I can feel its high potential as a food sake 🍶! It's so good!
I went on a two day and one night Niigata sake tour with a friend. We drank Gagarudai at a sake store near Niigata Station where you can drink at a corner!
It is fresh, light, and has a nice aroma. It had just the right amount of acidity. I thought about buying it, but ended up buying Kamo Nishiki at this store.

This sake is from Sado Island, Niigata.
It has a mild aroma, and on the palate, it tastes like a rummy, with just the right amount of gas and a clean, crisp taste.
It has a refreshing citrus and sweet pear taste.
It was served with hamachi sashimi and chawanmushi (steamed egg custard).
Jay & Nobby, thanks again for your comments!
Some locals say you are definitely an honorary citizen 🪭.
So you are also known as "Masayo"?
The name "Tamayura" is also very nice, and the sake was very delicious 🍶.
