Umami: 1.5

Impression] Modern fruity dry taste.
This is the sake we chose as a result of our agony to take the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Hakata.
It has a clean flavor design, and as a Yamada-Nishiki 55, it is "light, fresh, and clear" type.
The aroma is fruity and not too bright, and the taste has a roundness that is typical of Yamada-Nishiki, even though it is more on the light side. The aroma opens up depending on the temperature range, and while it is fruity, it does not necessarily need to be served cold, making it a useful sake for long trips on the bullet train.
Pairing
It is well-balanced enough to be drunk on its own, and was perfect with dried seafood snacks on the Shinkansen.
Repeat Score] 2.0
