たこママToday's sake is from Abe Shuzo's ★ series "ARCTURUS". I thought it would be too hard to open the bottle, since I bought it. So, of course, I asked my husband, who is not a drinker, to open it for me. When I pushed the bottle open, the wine came up in the bottle and I had to hold it down for a while. I opened it slowly so there was no spillage. (I just watched it). The aroma is smoky. The color is slightly pink. It is said that this is the color of the rice used to make it. When you put it in your mouth, it is refreshing. The sweetness is less than it appears, and it is still smoky. This may be the first sake like this. Perhaps it is because it is not so sweet, but even at 13% alcohol, I haven't forgotten the feeling of drinking sake. I am getting numb to the alcohol content when I drink sake. It is 500ml, 2,000 yen, so it is a little expensive for everyday drinking. I thought it would be fun to bring this kind of sake to my friends.
