Slightly effervescent and quite mild on the palate at the moment of drinking. Discreet fruity aroma. The mouthfeel is tightened by the bubbles and acidity. It would go well with sashimi of white meat fish.

This bottle caught my attention at a store we stopped at on the way to Hinoemata. The aroma is faintly banana, and the mouthfeel is quite mild. It is sweet, but the aftertaste disappears quickly, and even I, who like dry sake, can drink it easily.
I bought it without knowing the details, but it is a limited-edition blended sake. I would like to buy it again next season if I see it!

Hello.
Thank you for drinking sake from my hometown, Minamiaizu-cho!
Next time you pass by Minamiaizu-cho, please visit Kobayashi Sake Shop run by my classmate.

I bought this bottle at a roadside station in Nara. It was a bit too acidic to drink by itself, but with grilled fish, it didn't bother me, and the junmai-like mouthfeel made it easy to drink. It is reasonably priced and I would like to buy it again when I visit Nara.

I happened to be passing by and bought it at a sake brewery's direct sales counter. The aroma is subdued and the mouthfeel is refreshing. The aftertaste is slightly sour like pear and slightly bitter. Seems to go well with sashimi with abura on top.

Purchased at Izumiya Sake Shop in Koriyama, Fukushima. It has a softness on the palate that is typical of jungin, and the aroma is subdued. The acidity is felt, but the umami of the rice spreads later. It seems to go well with light white fish.

I bought a bottle at the liquor store at the Hakushoku Center at the end of my summer vacation. I drank it with seafood from the north.
It is not so much stimulating to the tongue as it is super spicy, and the acidity and rice sweetness are well balanced. It has a nice sharpness, so it is easy to drink as a food sake without disturbing the taste of the food!

Is the mild acidity compared to other reviews because it is almost hiyayogoshi when it is bottled in August? I would like to try this bottle during the new sake season as well.

I found this bottle at a local sake shop in Hida Takayama last week. It is rare to find an unblended sake with a sake strength of +15. The aroma is subdued, but the sake has a solid weight and is very drinkable. It goes well with sweet miso and shrimp.

Most of the super dry sakes I've had have a strong acidity, but this one is crisp and refreshing. It's relatively mild on the palate, but the spiciness doesn't linger, so it's a great sake to drink while eating!
It is a versatile sake that goes well with both sweet and salty snacks!

This Daiginjo has a light aroma and goes well with sashimi. The mouthfeel is mellow but not heavy, and it is easy to drink with a slight acidity.

The mouthfeel is clean and dry. The aroma is light and the taste is dry with a tingling sensation on the tongue, but there is no alcohol smell. Overall, it's heavier than I expected, but it's a good sake to drink while eating.

What is 0233? I was curious, so I bought one. When I asked at the liquor store, they said it was an area code.
I drank it cold and it was a winner! It's mild on the palate, with a sweetness and aroma, but also a slight acidity, and a clean and crisp aftertaste. It's a dangerous sake that goes well with sashimi. Next time I see it, I want to buy it again!

As soon as you drink it, you can feel the sweetness of the rice, but because it has a sake content of +15, it is tingly and spicy. It has an alcohol-like taste, but it doesn't smell bad and has a clean aftertaste. I would like to buy this bottle again when I visit Minakami.

This is a dry sake for heating up, recommended by a local sake shop in Yamagata. When heated, it's tangy and dry, but with little acidity and a mild mouthfeel. It's perfect for a light evening drink in this cold season!

It is a rather refreshing daiginjo. It has a sweet taste, but it doesn't linger and can be used as a sake during meals. It has more flavor than Junmai-shu, so you can enjoy sashimi while enjoying the taste of sake.
