Super everyday booze!
Smooth on the palate, slightly fruity & alcoholic sweetness. There's also a faint tartness that is very clean. The sweetness is light and softly cutting, so you can keep drinking it forever. Perfect for an everyday drink.
The use of brewed alcohol is very good. It achieves a beautiful sweetness and sharpness without giving off any unpleasantness at all.
This "Suzukagawa" is the local brand of Shimizu Seisaburo Store, the brewer of "Saku". The specs of this "Tokuho" are not written down in detail, but it is probably a normal class of sake. It doesn't cost 2,000 yen for a bottle of sake. But it's so delicious! It was the perfect sake to have on hand at home.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Yasunari Tsukishima from "Earshot". He is the father of the main character, Shizuku. He is a father who works as a librarian and researches local history in a calm and gentle manner. He is devoted to his favorite things other than his work. I think the theme of this film is "Live your life doing what you love", and he is one of the adults who embodies this theme.
Incidentally, Yasuya Tsukishima was also featured in "Gakki Masamune" before.
Satisfaction Level: ★★★★☆ .
