At home. This is the third sake we were served at the sake tasting party. My first Nanbu Bijin. How can a sake from Iwate be called Nanbu? According to Wikipedia, it's because the location of the brewery was part of the Nanbu domain (Nanbu region) in the Edo period. My impression is that the alcohol is not strong, but the aroma is a bit characteristic. It's not fruity or grainy... I regret my lack of tasting ability and vocabulary. On the palate, the sweetness spreads, and the mouthfeel is smooth and the throat feels clear or light. It is a historical sake and I thought it would be heavier, but it was very easy to drink.
