A little dry. But delicious. You can feel the flavor of sake rather than fruity. I️ got drunk while I was thinking about what to have for a snack.

At home.
This is the second one in the Hokkaido series.
Kokushi Muso is a metaphor for being so good that no two people under the sun are alike. I was expecting it to have a strong alcoholic taste, but I was betrayed in a good way. It has a fruity aroma and a refreshing, clean taste that goes well with any meal. I think I'll end up drinking too much of it.
But the words "Hokkaido Limited" are magic. I feel like I got a great deal just from this word.

Rice used : Hokkaido rice Kitshizuku
Rice polishing ratio : 55
Sake meter : +3
Acidity: 1.7
Alcohol content: 17-18%.

When opened, it has a gaseous feeling.
Almost no gas
Slightly alcoholic grape-like top note
The aroma is like light grapes and peaches, the umami of rice and gentle sweetness spreads with soft acidity, and it finishes with a hint of bitterness and a little bit of alcohol spiciness.
The aroma and sweetness are mild, and the umami of the rice can be felt well, giving it a mildly juicy impression. It goes well with meals and is of course delicious on its own.
It went well with crispy grilled chicken (salted and teriyaki flavors), turnip and chicken in cream sauce.
