At a corner bar of a liquor store in Kamata.
There were many varieties of sake, but I had my first glass of Miyakanbai, which I had been curious about for a long time. I was sure I would like it even though the label was plain, and it was just as I had expected.

Impression
Purchased at a local liquor store earlier this spring
Gorgeous aroma with sweetness.
Fresh sweetness fills the mouth immediately with a slight sourness.
The aftertaste is slightly spicy and refreshing.
Seems to go well as a food sake.
When I drank it with Nameko, the flavors enhanced each other and it was great!
The label is an image of long autumn nights, not unlike summer sake. The design is tasteful. It's nice.
The aroma is sweet, like ripe strawberries. The taste is also mild, which again overturns the image of summer sake. This is a bottle that should be savored slowly, not in large quantities.
This sake is said to be named after a song by the chorus group Circus (this sake was born out of a chance to hold a live concert at a sake brewery).
I am not from that generation, but I knew the name of the group and the name of the song.
Their signature was also printed on the label. I later realized it after an internet search... LOL!
There was one that I was curious about, so I just had one glass.
I thought it would be a hard-core sake from the name, but it turned out to be a modern, easy-drinking sake, which I love.
This is another sake I want to pursue.
Encountered at the only dealer in Nagano Prefecture.
The aroma is sour fruit aroma, pineapple type aroma.
It is a mellow sake with sweetness and rice flavor. This is delicious! Just my kind of sake.
I would like to thank the owner for choosing this sake.
This is a delicious sake 🍶 Great!
