This one, with a label that looks like a red seal, is my companion for tonight. When the bottle is opened, it has a fresh ginjo aroma reminiscent of young grass. In the mouth, there is no sweetness as expected from the aroma, and it is quite dry. When swallowed, it has a slight bitterness. When paired with a shredded cabbage salad with tomato dressing, the sweetness of the dressing makes the dryness stand out even more. A real dry taste! The main dish is sardine with plum pineapple. Since this dish is also sweet in flavor, the sake is all dry. However, the contrast between the two may be a nice complement to each other. I wonder if the combination with potato chips would bring out the slight sweetness.
