Purchased at Okadaya in Meieki for the first time. The clerk carefully explained the sake to me, so even a beginner could feel at ease at this liquor store. The price was 1,980 yen for 720 ml, tax included. Polishing ratio 60%. I was excited because I have been a fan of Tenbi since I drank it at Hikarizo. The aroma is amazingly fruity. So-called "kapu" type? This must be very sweet! I thought so and drank it... Contrary to my expectation, it is not sweet at all! Not even spicy! But it has a sharpness! Is this what you call a refreshing sake...? It is bitter, but in a good way! It's like dark grapefruit juice! And, as is typical of nama-zake, there is a strong gaseous sensation. I feel like I was betrayed, for better or worse. I think it would probably go really well with carpaccio. I don't think it will become my favorite, but I think people who are into it will like it. Next time I drink it, I want to drink it with carpaccio. On a side note, I recently started studying for the sake certification test! I hope to weave in more and more knowledge that I know!
