After staying one night in Nagaoka City, we went to Niigata City next.
Sake tasting at Ponshukan in Niigata Station.
The first cup was a Tenryo Saihei sake.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 15
Wow, this is dry 😲.
It retains the umami of the rice and of course has a nice sharpness.
Garakudai, made by the same brewery, is also light but more modern. Tenryohai follows the traditional light and dry taste of Niigata sake.
I think it was the spiciest sake I drank on this trip.
