The same brand of Junmai-shu (pure rice sake) was drunk in succession to compare the two. When the bottle was opened, the aroma was fuller than that of Junmai sake. It is different from a gorgeous aroma. The taste is light, dry, and refreshing. When paired with hijiki/tuna simmered in miso, it has a subtle sweetness that is different from that of the junmai sake. Even after yellow cherry tomatoes, which did not go well with Junmai, the bitterness does not stand out and it is easy to drink. When paired with shishamo fish tempura, which was a good match earlier, an organic atmosphere comes out after drinking, and I think the marriage with junmai sake prevails. It is interesting to see how the sake's sake accompaniments change depending on the brewing process. The newly added amaebi sashimi was a great match! I thought it would increase the bitterness, but the sweetness of the sake was enhanced. This is why I tend to drink too much.
