としひこ
On a recent trip to Niigata, I visited the famous Niigata restaurant "Brothers Sushi. As the restaurant is dedicated to Niigata cuisine, I ordered only Niigata sake, which was also on the menu.
The first was Kirinzan. The first was Kirinzan, a sake made from Takananishiki rice. When I heard the name Kirinzan, I had an image of it being very classical, but I was surprised at how modern it was. However, there was also a hint of old-fashioned sake in the depths of the bottle.
Kirinzan, a brand I would not have chosen for myself, is not bad. It's not good not to drink it.
