Purchased at a 7-Eleven in Ibaraki. It's amazing that convenience stores have several bottles of that local sake.
First sip after opening the bottle at home.
First, a little sourness. It's like Bulgarian yogurt without sugar, the kind of acidity you feel on the tip of your tongue. Next comes the spiciness.
It is a traditional sake, but surprisingly I like it. The acidity and spiciness go well together. Slightly spicy with a sake strength of +3.
It is good at room temperature and even better when heated. It has a strong sake character.
The price is an unbeatable 913 yen including tax! This is excellent.
This brewery also brews beer and offers a beer brewing experience called the Handmade Beer Workshop.
