8.5 points (Wife: 8 points)
Rice:Sembonshiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio: 55
Alcohol content: 15.5
Purchased at Toyosu Hon Tuna and Charcoal Grill Paradise shigi38 (Sapporo, Hokkaido)
Slightly grape-like topping
The same fruity aroma as the topping, soft rice sweetness and umami, with fine citrus acidity and a slight gassy feeling, spreading out with a pizzazz and a slight bitterness with a slight alcohol spiciness.
The overall balance is good, including the spiciness of the alcohol in the latter half, and it is delicious with a meal or on its own.
It goes well with dashimaki tamago (rolled egg) with clams on top and torotaku rolls.
