Remembering my trip to Yamagata, I will have Yamagata sake outside from noon. It was the first time I had it without drinking it in Yamagata.
It was fresh and fruity and easy to drink.
The day after drinking, we ate salt ramen (🍜) and the 🌻 field was well worth seeing.
It is a little spicy.
The mouthfeel is robust, and since it is kept at 0°C, it may become a little more robust as the temperature rises. Instead, it has a crisp aftertaste.
It may be easier to drink when cooled down!
I wonder if it is an easy-drinking dry sake!
35%, 18%, Yamagata yeast, Sake degree +4, Acidity 1.5.
This was given to me by my daughter on Father's Day. I guess she didn't choose it herself, but had someone at the store pick it for her.
It was an entry in the New Sake Competition and won a prize. ㊗️
It has a refreshing ginjo aroma and is gentle and elegant on the palate,

Hello ETENE 😃
So this is a collaboration between a wine supplier and a brewery? Now that you put it that way, this label also looks like a Japanese/Western face 😄.
A bottle of this one to accompany you tonight. When I opened the bottle, I noticed a unique aroma. It is hard to describe, but is it derived from lactic acid bacteria? I may not like it very much. When I put it in my mouth without mixing in the oli, it has a unique flavor. Aroma of wood? After the woody aroma, there is a strong sour taste. Hmmm, it is not my favorite. When paired with grilled barracuda, the corners are removed and it becomes a little easier to drink. When mixed with Ori, the sweetness increases and it becomes much easier to drink.
It was a surprising encounter to find out that there are many different brewing directions for our favorite sake!

In 2024, the label won the top prize in the "Kura Master" category at a sake competition held in France.
The Benten label has been attracting attention in recent years for its aggressive appeal outside of Japan.
The company seems to be developing a wide variety of locally brewed sake in small quantities.
This sake also has a carefully crafted taste.
The aroma is like muscat, and the soft umami flavor from the rice spreads and changes delicately.
It is a delicious sake.
The aroma is pleasant, with a good flavor and acidity.
The sweet and spicy flavor flows smoothly through the mid-palate, and the finish is smooth and smooth.
Purchased at a local supermarket.
Drink alone at the end of the fiscal year.
Fresh and clean ginjo aroma. Citrusy and very fruity.
It is refreshingly light and sweet, but also has a richness that is typical of Benten.
It is both light and heavy.
It is a good sake.
No wonder it is a collaboration with a wine import company.
