My first summer sake of the year! Yamakawa Pork Man was also 2021 Natsu, but it was a little different. Toyoupa is a hall of fame brand, so it's indispensable, and so far this year I should be able to drink all the seasonal ones! The aroma doesn't spread immediately after opening the bottle, but when you sip it, you can feel the mild ginjo aroma. The taste is good, with only the flavor of the rice coming through, and the acidity is low. Recently, there have been many types of sake with a lot of sweetness that I haven't had before, so I feel like I've come back to my home ground after a long time! Lately I've been drinking more and more over 3 or 4 days, but I drank just over 3 cups on the first day! I guess the next one will be a cool breeze. I'm looking forward to it now, but I need to drink another bottle of Toyoupai before then. Or I want to enjoy it at a restaurant after the declaration is lifted.
