Where to buy Nagaura Station AEON (Chiba Sodegaura)
Mixed with Turnip Steak with Anchovy Butter Sauce
The aroma has a caramel-like smell that lingers in the nose, and you can smell quite a bit of alcohol.
However, the taste is just rich.
When drunk chilled at first (at refrigerator temperature of 5-8℃), it does not smell of alcohol. The taste was very sour at first. (Before getting drunk) I got the impression of tannins from grape skins, and felt an astringent sourness like red wine. However, the aftertaste was delicious (like the good parts of red wine), and the berry-like sourness was gone, and the aftertaste was refreshingly gone. And there is no aftertaste of alcohol. It is honestly delicious.
I want to talk about it in a general review because I am also drunk.
Overall Rating ~ A+ ~ S
I would give it an S, but my evaluation criteria are that it is easy to drink even for those who do not like sake, and that it is easy to match with food. I am rating it from the point of view that it is easy to drink even for those who do not like sake, and that it is easy to match with food.
Personally, I underestimated the Kanto region (Tokyo, Chiba, etc.).
It's just plain awesome. I regret that I have lived in Chiba and Tokyo for so long and never encountered it. Delicious.
Not for everyone, but if you can afford it, drink it. Characters

When it gets lukewarm, you can smell the alcohol, but the umami and the flavor that lingers on the tongue should be habit-forming for some people.
If you can afford it, buy it cheap.
I think there are a lot of people, especially in the Kanto region, who would like you to try it.
If you have any comments or suggestions after drinking it, please let me know.

Let's talk about it all night long.
The good and the bad. A drink that betrayed me in a good way that is about as good as it gets.
