Fukura Junmai Daiginjo, Fukura Shuzo, Tottori Prefecture. It was slightly yellowish green in color, with a unique rice aroma and a thin taste.

(laugh).

Junmai sake from Saitama Hasuda Shinkame Brewery. It was served hot in a heated makase in collaboration with the Shinkame Brewery. This is the first sake from Saitama. The crisp, dry taste stands out when heated, but the alcohol taste lingers strongly in the mouth, so you may not like it. It's like the hot sake that our senpai used to drink at izakaya (Japanese-style pubs). I like it (laughs).
