The sake we tasted had been opened for a long time, so the sweetness was emphasized, but the freshly opened sake had a good balance of sweet and spicy with a hint of spiciness. It's also refreshing. I wonder if the green bottle and label is because it's from Midori City?
When the temperature is close to room temperature, the sweetness comes out. It's not good to cool it too much. The aroma is a sweet honey-like impression. It also has a nutty taste in the second half.
It's my first time to try Akagisan because it's not common to find it in Kansai, but it seems to be a major sake sold in convenience stores and supermarkets in Gunma.

I looked it up and it seems that the toji-san moved from Naniwa Masamune a few years ago. The taste is somewhat similar to Naniwa Masamune's Sakamatsu.

It looks like the liquor you tasted was four or five days old when you opened it, so I'd set it aside for a bit.

Even if you participate in the Meimon Shu-kai, if a brewery doesn't release Risshun Asa-shibori or summer nama-shu, you're a no-go.
