Speaking of business trip, local sake! But it was late at night when I arrived, so I gave up. There were no other options but the convenience store, so I looked for some local sake... and this was the only thing I could find. It's been a while, a really long time, since I've had a bottle of "Kasen" sake. In addition to brewing alcohol, it also contains sugar. It brought back memories of my grandfather drinking it at my parents' house... the sticky, medicinal stuff that always lingers the next day. But it's been more than 20 years since then, and the times are different! And Kunimaru is a famous sake! That's why I bought it, even though it was a long time ago. In conclusion, it's completely different from the old days, it's delicious! It's not sticky at all, which I think is a skill of the brewer. It may not have the fullness, aroma, and depth unique to Junmai, but that's a balance with the price. It's nice to be able to drink it easily with the sweets you've bought! It's unexpected in a good way, and I'd love to try Kunimare's other brands! In one of the books, it was written not to shy away from those with brewing alcohol. It says that it is completely different from the old one. I'm sure opinions vary, but I think I'll try to enjoy it without too many preconceived notions!
