Today, three of my colleagues and I went out for a drink. One of them lives in Osaka and moved to Tokyo, so we decided to have a drink together. We went to our favorite yakitori restaurant. First, the Osaka-based classmate requested a dry sake, and the restaurant offered a Shiraoi with an unusual label. It was easy to drink with a light nigari flavor.

I don't know what kind of sake it is because it is written in horizontal characters.
The endorsement says "Shiraoi".
Nama sake, fresh!

There was a tasting and the brewer recommended it.
This sake is brewed from "Wakamizu" sake rice from Aichi Prefecture.
It is an unfiltered unpasteurized sake, and you can feel a slight carbonation when opening the bottle.

The umami taste that comes in a big rush is very good!
It has a nice sharpness and was soon empty.
