2022-08 Nice to meet you Niigata Prefecture!
A wonderful time to get it through Furusato tax payment, even though it is only available in Niigata Prefecture.
The first day: Not a light and dry Niigata sake, but rather a orikarami-nama-shu, which means that after a moment of dryness at the mouth, a sweetness spreads. Almost no gassiness. The final taste is a slight bitterness, which I thought was unexpected.
The third day, the freshness remains unchanged. The sweetness has increased even more, and it goes well with very spicy hot bean curd! And heated sake is good, too. The slight spiciness is addictive.
Day 7: The sweetness becomes too strong and the taste is a bit monotonous; it is best enjoyed up to about the third day.
First day ★★★★☆
Day 3 ★★★★☆
Day 7 ★★★☆☆☆☆
Overall 3.8
