しょうたそ
A gem brewed by the Toyo Bijin brewery.
About eight years ago, the city of Hagi in Yamaguchi Prefecture was hit by a torrential rainstorm, along with neighboring Shimane Prefecture, and this brewery was also damaged.
The sake rice used is 100% Yamadanishiki, which is grown in a different area of Yamaguchi Prefecture. We open the bottle with our hearts in our mouths.
The initial aroma is the freshness of fruit typical of Toyo Bijin.
In the mouth, the expected sweetness is subdued, and it has a clear, watery feel. The spiciness follows suit, and it is refreshing.
It has a drier impression than the Spring Goddess Poem that we drank before, and it is a summer sake that can be drunk easily during the hot season.
You can't go wrong with Toyo Bijin.
