I choose to look for a product at a liquor store back home. I was attracted to it, so I bought it.
The label said, "Mild aroma, crisp, mellow and dry.
I tried it and found it to be just like that.
I want to repeat this!

This one was served at Miyajima-san last month.
It is mild, yet refreshingly delicious 😋.

After drinking wine at the first restaurant, a home-grown vegetable restaurant was closed on a holiday and a soba restaurant was full, but when I looked in, I found a seat available.
The first glass of sake was Matsuo!
I heard it won some kind of gold medal!
The price is a bit expensive, but I'll order it!
And then, the delicious, modern taste!
The hamo katsu (hamo cutlet) we ordered came out quickly, even though we were told it would take a while since it was deep-fried!
Matsuo is delicious no matter what you drink!
Purchased at Shinano Roadside Station.
I drink it by Lake Nojiri as it is.
It is unfiltered and bought immediately.
It tastes dry. It tastes dry and refreshing.
It was refrigerated, so I kept it cold,
When it is served in a glass and the temperature rises, it becomes richer and the tongue has a strong taste.
It has a rich taste and a smooth texture.
It is the kind of sake that you can drink in small sips.
The aroma is mild.
The rice umami spreads gently after being absorbed.
It has a soft graininess.
The texture is clean and light with moderate acidity.
The balance is good, and it does not seem to be boring to drink.
It is smooth and crisp.
Slightly light and straightforward umami spiciness.
And a very reasonable price!
I liked it.
Degree of liking 4.5/5
At a friend's house.
Reunion after a year.
It was delicious and went on and on, and my friend had to stop me.
Next time I will bring something with apology.
Matsuo Togakushi Junmai Ginjo Limited Order Production 720ml
Rice used: 100% Sanke Nishiki from Nagano Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio 59
Alcohol content 15.5
Manufactured on April 22, 2024
Purchased and kept in the refrigerator at home for one year, opened the bottle ^ ^.
It is mild and not flashy, but it is soft and honestly delicious.
Kikusen, Katsuma, Hirotogawa, Wakanami, etc. It is the sense of the store owner.
I will be in Saku next Monday for two nights. But since we are staying overnight in the mountains, we will only have a chance to visit sake shops early Monday morning or Wednesday evening. And all the famous liquor stores are closed on Wednesdays😭.
Hi @Mizuhashi 🐦.
I see you are going to Saku! There are many sake breweries, so there seems to be a variety of sake available, but are you working? Your schedule seems quite difficult 🥺I hope you will have some encounters even in such a situation 🙏.
Thank you, Pon 😭
I had to work this week, so I'm going to shift it around and my bad friend invited me to a golf course sleepover during summer vacation: ⛳️
It looks like it's pretty deep in the mountains, but I'll take my chances and try to get into town 😆.

Classical label.
The color is slightly yellowish with a pure rice flavor.
However, it is not old-fashioned, but rather a dry and delicious sake with a strong umami taste.
Sake rice is Yamae-Nishiki, and compared to the Yamae-Nishiki sake we have had so far, this is a delicious sake with strong acidity and dryness, and you can feel the potential of the sake rice!
