ラル大佐
The fifth one is Yamatoden.
This is a Miyagi Prefecture-only brand brewed by Ichinokura. But it seems to be sold in other prefectures as well.
The name Yamatoden comes from the name of a Japanese sword forged in Matsuyama, Osaki City, where Ichinokura is located. The sparks on the label are from the hammer used to forge the sword.
The aroma is only faintly fragrant.
The mouthfeel is light and dry, but the flavor is also strong. What should be noted is the sharpness. The sharpness is just like a Japanese sword, leaving only the good parts of bitterness and astringency.
When I was a child, my late father used to keep Yamatoden on his bedside table as a sleeping sake so that he could sleep in the daytime after coming home from his night shift. My father never had an image of drinking, so I foolishly thought to myself as a child, "My father drinks too.
It reminded me of something strange.
Thank you for the food!
