This is Mitsuo Yamakawa 2023 Haru. We will have it for the first time. The 25th edition is from Yamagata Masamune's Mitobe Sake Brewery. The theme for 2023 was "collaboration with fermented foods," and this sake was a challenge to pair with yogurt-based dishes. The sake was made with white malted rice, so I wondered if it tasted like Shinmasa's "Flax Cat". We enjoyed it with the thought that it might taste like Shinsei's "Flax Cat". It has a moderate acidity and a slight white wine-like aftertaste. It is a very drinkable and tasty sake.
