Nearly colorless, almost transparent color.
The aroma is like that of Japanese pears. There is almost no acidity, and the aftertaste is not that long but has a good sharpness. Sake with a refreshing aroma.
Izakaya near Chidori Station
Drink it cold
The aroma is almost imperceptible.
In the mouth, it has a richness with a very slight savory flavor.
Weak, tingling richness that gradually appears later.
It was a Junmai Daiginjo with a strange crispness without a strong aroma or umami.
When I drink alone at home, I am grateful to have a bottle of sake. I often buy it when I see it. @Aeon Mall Sendai Uesugi
At the Fukusa House
More spectacular than the Matabei from earlier.
No bubbles, strong acidity, delicious.
but not my favorite

Personally, I felt the aroma was smelly.
Mild taste in the mouth
There is a spiciness in the aftertaste.
I drank it cold. It would be better to drink it lukewarm or hot.
I received this bottle on a business trip.
I was full of beer and highballs, but I had to have some local sake... so I bought some at a convenience store 😂.
I really wanted to taste different kinds of local sake, but I had no choice 😢.
The taste,
The aroma is sweet with a hint of rice.
The mouthfeel is also ricey. It is not gorgeous, but it has a slight sweetness and gentleness of rice 😆.
There is a slight acidity, and I didn't feel much spiciness.
I would like to have it slowly when I visit there again.
Celebrating my grandfather's US jubilee, we went sightseeing in Matsushima on the last day.
Whenever we visit Matsushima, we always stop by a Japanese sake shop.
While chatting with the clerk, we decided to compare and sample the sake. This is the best one among them. It is a brand of sake that is raw but aged for a year. Normally, I would open a bottle of sake right away to enjoy its freshness, but I was told that even a draft sake can be delicious if it is aged for a year!
The sake was just as he said it would be, with a very delicious flavor that had been matured while keeping the freshness in check. I was told that there were only a few bottles left at the sake shop, so I immediately bought it.
