This is delicious 😆✨ I was lured by the store's claim of being the No. 1 seller and bought it on the spur of the moment. For a sake from Shinshu, it is soft on the palate. The alcohol is as strong as ever, but I had no trouble swallowing it. The aroma smells of a sour type of smell. There is sweetness in the sourness, and it seems kiwifruit-like. In the mouth, one senses a delicious flavor. Most of the local sake from Shinshu I don't like, but this one is good! I purchased it at the local sake sales place in Midori, Nagano Station. I was surprised to see that the atmosphere had changed when I visited there after a long time. It is on the second floor of Midori, and they had opened a sake tasting corner. After tasting sake there, you can buy it at the sake shop. Very nice! 😆. The brands at the sake tasting corner are, of course, a collection of local sake from Shinshu, but some of them seem to change the brands they serve depending on the season. In the sake tasting corner, there were also sake snacks available, and even some snacks that are unique to Shinshu. Very nice! 😆. Please stop by if you visit Nagano City. I, for one, would like to take public transportation to take advantage of the sake tasting corner next time 🤣.
