Masaaki Sapporo
7 points (Wife 7.5)
Rice : Ehime Shizuku Ehime
Rice polishing ratio : 60
Sake Degree : ±0
Purchased from: Mizuguchi Shuzo, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture
Silent when opened, no gassiness
Pineapple-like aroma with a hint of rice flavor.
The same mild aroma as the first sip, soft rice flavor and moderate sweetness spreads with a little acidity, and finishes quickly with a hint of bitterness and a little alcohol spiciness.
Overall, it is refreshing and easy to drink. It is good for accompanying a meal, but it may be too smooth as a stand-alone sake.
The taste may have changed since the one I bought from a brewery in Ehime this time last year came out of the fridge.
It went well with spicy grilled minos and Umaibo shrimp mayonnaise flavor.
