It is labeled "super-harsh" and it certainly has a clean aftertaste, but the first taste is very round.
This is the first time I've had this kind of sake.
It is made from "Momota" rice from Akita Prefecture. The rice polishing ratio is 40% and the sake is brewed with "14 series yeast" as its base. It has a modest yet elegant fruity aroma. The aroma is not too fruity, but calm. The taste is relatively clear and refreshing, with sharp acidity and a moderate sweetness. The acidity tightens the aftertaste and gives it a crisp, clean finish. The taste is as expected of an exhibitor's specifications. It is a gem that retains the atmosphere of a trendy fruity, sweet, easy-drinking sake, but with a sense of depth. Delicious 😋.

The last 8 cups of Eiraku Shokudo are here. The taste of the stones is already lost to me 😥 The sourness of the lemon juice is very effective. Since it's called a diner, you can eat a variety of food, from curry to fried rice. It was my best izakaya in 2024 🎉.

The next drink was Yuki no Bijin, which has been a long time coming.
I didn't dare to order it since I usually see this brand at Sake-no-wa, but this time the restaurant didn't have a lot of sake 😅... 😅.
Yes, very beautiful soft taste.
Junmai is usually a sake that has a bit of a harsh taste or a strong attack that makes you want to pair it with darker ingredients, but this was very soft and tasty.
It is also very easy to drink, and I finished the entire bottle in no time at all.
After this, we had a good time with white wine to red wine according to our senpai, and then we were taken straight to Ginza and went into a bar in the basement of a building without knowing where we walked to. 😅
I had a vague memory of taking a bath, although I had a good amount of memory there, and seeing as how I was still slowly damaged the next day, it seems that I drank a good amount at the bar as well. 😱
That's the scary thing about fun drinks that you don't usually mix and drink, like wine and water. (Chuckles)
Well, good night. 😪
