I went to the liquor store because I wanted a tangy and refreshing sake after a series of sweet sake recently. The summer sake is already here. I remember drinking this sake, but it was not recorded. In a word, it is crisp and clear. It does not have the piquancy that is typical of summer sake, but the timing of the transition from a moderate piquancy to bitterness is exquisite. The bitterness comes just before the spiciness disappears, and then it disappears. I paired it with a plate of fresh bonito, and although it may be an exaggeration, it was a perfect marriage with the fresh bonito. The sweetness of the sake is brought out in combination with the acidity of the bonito. It was a home run level pairing after a long time.
