Takatsugu
This is the first summer sake from Yonezuru Shuzo. We opened a bottle of the raw sake labeled "Hotaru" (firefly).
It has a refreshing taste that is typical of nama-shu, with a gentle sweetness followed by a moderate tartness. The alcohol content is 14%, but it is not light, and the sake is delicious.
The label's list of "compatible dishes" is wide ranging, from seafood to Chinese food, making it a good choice for a mid-meal drink.
A bargain among summer sakes that I hope to taste again next year. Delicious: ‼️
