Sober_Is_Overrated
Most sake from miyagi is somewhat sweet and full bodied. This one from Lawson in Asakusa is no exception. At room temp you can feel that heat and the bold flavor of the Sasanishiki rice. Bringing it to a chilled temperature calms down this angry beast and it shows its more feminine side: floral, fruity, apples, bananas, and a slight hint of chestnuts. I get a bit of sakura and white flowers as well. For only 450 yen for 300 ml this is an absolute steal. Pairs with savory meats and cheeses.
