サケスキウサギ
Obtained at a local supermarket. It is a sake from Shimane, which is rarely seen in Japan.
The label seems to incorporate Nishijin textile techniques, giving it a luxurious feel. The price is reasonable at around 1,300 yen for junmai daiginjo-shu.
I had it cold.
As described, it had a melon-flavored fruity taste, acidity, and a unique peculiarity like old Shaoxing sake.
I like both fruity and Shaoxing wine, but when they are combined, I honestly don't think I would like it. However, after drinking it for a while, the peculiar taste mellows out and it becomes quite enjoyable.
I would prefer to drink it by itself rather than with a meal.
However, I heard that the president (Touji) passed away and it is no longer sold. ......
