Bitterness: 1.0

Impression] Light and dry with umami.
I tasted it at home after sneaking it home from the hotel.
The sharp malic acid from the cold flavor acid and the soft richness from the lactic acid coexist in the same bottle, making it a light and dry sake that looks great cold. Although it is a regular sake, it has a fruity aroma and lightness like a ginjo sake, making it an excellent everyday sake. It is also interesting to note the change in acidity as the temperature changes.
The cold acidity seems to be an organic acid originally developed by Gekkeikan. This is an idea unique to ordinary sake, and is a pleasure that cannot be found in sake with a specific name.
Pairing] Edamame (soybeans), chilled tofu, horse mackerel, grilled fish with salt
Repeat Score】1.5
