Last day of GW~!
I went back home with a bang. ☺️ I'll give you the drinks I drank!
First of all, I took this sake from a sake brewery that I had never visited before: ♥️
I took this sake from my usual liquor store, which became the first special distributor in Hokuriku 👏.
I had it at my in-laws' house when I went back home 💃.
Delicious!
It's a kijoshu, but it's not fussy, it's elegant and mellow 🥰.
It was so delicious!
I'll be checking out this sake in the future~ ♥️
Hiraizumi Yamahai Junmai Sake
Alcohol 15
60% ratio
It has a sharp alcohol taste (different from the ethanol-like alcohol taste of brewer's alcohol) followed by a bitter taste on the palate.
Maybe it's not my favorite taste.
I feel like I get intoxicated because I feel the alcohol is too strong even if the alcohol content is the same as 15%.
Note: If I let it air out a little, the bitterness disappears and it becomes milder and easier to drink.
It was good to drink with strong taste and cheese.
I first drank it cold (room temperature). It has a light sourness and crispness, and I think it would be good to drink it with a meal. I think it will be more refreshing if it is served cold. I left it unfinished today and will drink it cold next time. I think it has a nice crispness with a hint of acidity when served cold.
The third drink of the day
My memory of the taste is gradually getting fuzzy...
Four seasons of spring is sweet. I've been avoiding it because the label looks like evening, but let's just say it tastes like spring!

Yamahai Junmai Daiginjo, bought by a senior employee of the company on a business trip to Akita! Apple-like sweetness and acidity.
It is very delicious!
Served with stone sea bream aqua pazza.
Alcohol content: 13%.
Akita Sake Komachi, Sake (Yamahai Junmai Sake)
Rice polishing ratio: 50% (Koji rice), 60% (Kake rice)
At a sake meeting in Tokyo.
The sake was thought to be extremely sweet with a sake strength of -43, but it matched very well with the apple-like acidity.
It was highly praised for its moderate acidity, which made it easy to drink.
It also has an impression of yogurt and generally has a refreshing taste.
