Purchased at Mekada Sake Shop on a business trip to Utsunomiya. It was in a cold bag from the beginning. It has an impressive sweetness and flavor of rice with a soft mouthfeel.

Thank you for your comment. Tochigi Prefecture has so many delicious sake that I can't drink them all. I have to buy Kyokko when I go there because I can't find it in other prefectures.
Gorgeous, sweet aroma with a soft, yogurt-like flavor.
The wine is fruity, dark sweet, juicy, and richly delicious.
It has a sharp spiciness, and the pull is surprisingly light.
The price is reasonable, as it is made from rice that is not from the same grade as the original.
There is a slight tanginess to the taste.
Taste: 3/5☆.
This sake that we are drinking tonight is labeled "dry" and has a crisp flavor.
I thought the slightly vanilla-like aroma was distinctive.
No, it is a delicious sake.
It is my personal favorite sake. I bought it when I happened to see it on sale at a local sake brewery in Tochigi. It has a rich ginjo aroma and a slight old-fashioned aroma, and while it has a mildly sweet mouthfeel, it is very easy to drink. I love ‼️‼️‼️‼️.
I bought it because it was made with out-of-grade rice and was cheaper than Daigin class sake!
Bingo! It is delicious!
Beautiful sake with soft sweetness and acidity. Fruity aroma with a hint of sweetness. The aftertaste is sharp and short. It is easy to drink. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a meal.

This is Mashidaya's second release! I was able to buy the sake I was looking for in last week's newsletter, so no more weekend trip to Shinshu 😄.
It arrived with Sairai's morning coolness.
It's delicious, a bit like a refreshed Kabutomushi, if that's the trend.
The price is 1,320 yen for a junmai ginjo class of rice that is not equal to the price of the other sake!
It is a great value for money sake!
