I bought this sake recommended by a shopkeeper when I was in Sendai the other day. It is rich and gorgeous, with a concentrated umami flavor. It is delicious. I would definitely buy this sake again.
The second bottle for the sukiyaki party was Kitamitsu Masamune, Yukiakari, which I bought on a trip to Nagano. It was an elegant sake with a light sweetness and aroma, yet crisp and suitable for cooking.
Thanks for your message, Shachimaru! I see you also have nigorigo. That looks good, too. I think I'll come back to Sendai again, so I'll give it a try next time!
We had Naeba-yama at home, which we bought as a souvenir on our way to Nozawa. We had carbonara for dinner, and it was delicious, just like white wine. It was a little sweet, but I didn't mind it at all halfway through, and it went very well with the meal.
I am enjoying a limited-edition Naebayama sake that I bought on my trip at home. It is light and fluffy, and the taste of rice spreads on the palate. It is delicious.
