A mysterious restaurant in Echigo. At the first party, we were completely full after thick fried bean curd, pork cutlet, Koshihikari rice balls and beer.
The second party was to enjoy local sake. Have you ever had much sake? It might be my first time, so I followed Yuten and went to Katafune.
The Sai Sei of Katafune! I received this as a birthday present!
It is written "Saisei," which means "live colorfully and vividly" in Japanese! It's a good name.
I want to spend this year in good health so that I can taste delicious sake again.
The label of autumn, floating vaguely in the moonlight.
Slightly refreshing young melon,
The color is pale gold,
The mouthfeel is slightly smooth.
The dark sweetness and light acidity,
The stimulation on the tip of the tongue
The refreshing bitterness and rich umami spread out,
The umami is also strong,
The deep and complex flavor is characterized by the four-stage kumidashi brewing process, which is rarely used today,
It is delicious!

Echigo-Kenshin SAKE Festival 2024⑧.
I chose the event's limited Junmai Nama-zake. It rained heavily on Saturday, and although I did not attend on Sunday, I heard it was very cold and heated sake was very popular. The sake has a great flavor, so it would be delicious warmed up.
Good evening, Strawberry Aisu!
I was very confused about what to buy this time because there were various limited edition sake on sale. I'm looking forward to opening it 😌.
Sake degree -2 degrees Slightly sweet sake.
It has a mild and tasty flavor with no alcohol angle due to aging.
The sweetness is not from sugar, but from rice, so it goes down the throat softly and smoothly.
I would like to try heating it up next time.
