A little drink, lunchtime sake.
The taste is around umami and spiciness.
The middle part of the sake sinks slightly, and the richness of the umami flavor is maintained until the end.
It is said to have been created to accompany seafood, since sushi was called "yasuke" in the Hanayagi world. It has a mellow, full flavor, yet it is refreshing and easy to drink. My favorite type.

The moment you put it in your mouth, you will feel a good flavor and a spicy taste.
The spiciness is fresh and new.
The umami gradually fades away and the spiciness remains, but there is not much bitterness.
It is not only spicy, but also has a nice and clean taste with just the right amount of umami, and it certainly goes well with sashimi.
This is a unique taste.
I would like to have it on hand at all times.
I was very curious about this one after hearing about the origin of the name from a Kabuki play. It's "hikakami" and "sukoroku sushi," so I knew I wanted to pair it with sushi.
The aroma is rummy and sour.
When you drink it, it is chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili-chili, soft and fluffy sweetness. There is a light green apple-like fruity taste, but it is fruity! It is a sake made from rice, but not to the point of being fruity. It is gentle and refreshing.
It is sweeter than expected, but it is pleasantly integrated with the gradual umami of the rice. It is a smooth sake that can be enjoyed with a strong taste, but it is a delicious sake that is best served with fish.

Clean mouthfeel and mellow aroma, with a clean and crisp finish.
Goes well with simmered silver cod 😁.
