I'm going to work all through GW and tomorrow is my only day off. I want to savor it as much as possible tonight.
I bought this sake at Mishimaya Sake Shop in Izu Nagaoka in February, and I regret that I should have bought Aizan as well, since it was also on sale. However, this liquor store had a great selection. Nabeshima and Yamamoto stood out.
The taste...this is it! It tastes just like the first time I encountered this sake! The fizz is strong and juicy, but with a nice sweetness and umami. I realized that the reason I felt that Sairai and Denshokiku were lacking was because I was craving this flavor.
We had it with pork miso nabe and bonito tataki.
