N-888 is the 888th sake that came closest to the ideal out of the 1,200 trials that Niigata Meikozo went through in order to create a sake that would suit the modern diet. 888th may seem a bit excessive, but 1,200 trials is an impressive number.

The aroma is mild. There is a faint citrus-like acidity. White malted rice?
The mouthfeel is smooth, but then the acidity and sweetness come in! From there, it spreads out more slowly. This is rich. However, it disappears nicely at the end.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Dora's youth in "Laputa: Castle in the Sky. Although it does not appear directly in the movie, there is a portrait of Dora hanging in her room. It is also cute and cool. She looks powerful, energetic, strong, and yet cute. And she has style!
Satisfaction: ★★★★
