sato
I really wanted to open it on New Year's Day, but it was too busy.
At the end of the year, I was wandering around a liquor store in Morioka when I found a bottle of Kokugen for the first time in a long time and bought it immediately. (And it was a tefu!).
I thought, "I'm going to have a drunken dream on New Year's Day! I thought, "I'm going to have a drunken dream at New Year's." But it turned out to be today.
I wanted to drink it while looking at the scenery of Minamiaizu and Goshikinuma in winter as I had received a comment from nabe-san before, but I'm going to stay at home.
The sake is very light and smooth on the palate with a gentle, graceful and refined taste.
Overall, the sake is watery and clear and dry, but the sweetness, umami, and acidity create a light gradation that fades away, leaving a lingering acidity.
It reminded me of the pale pink, light blue sky of winter mornings and evenings at Lake Inawashiro.
The image of the sake matched perfectly with my recently purchased vessel!
