This is an old sake.
It was H22BY.
It was originally brought to us because we thought it would go well with oden miso.
As an old sake, it did not have much of an aged aroma and seemed to still have potential.
It was even rather dry.
I liked it better when it was slightly heated.
It's fun to drink it together while sharing your thoughts and opinions.

The person I was drinking with somehow brought some sake and we started a Sairyu drinking comparison.
This is a standard junmai ginjo.
It is a clean, dry, easy-drinking sake with a little bit of a peculiar taste, but it is a delicious sake.
Let's compare it with another bottle.
Rice used is Yamadanishiki
It is soft on the palate with a good balance of umami and acidity.
It is a good food sake with a refreshingly dry aftertaste.
