k-t's Profile | Sakenowa

Purchased at the Japanese Sake Brewery Exhibition at Nagoya Takashimaya. I got in line first thing in the morning. It was a bit light, with a chili taste and a slight bitterness typical of Kuheiji, but after 3 or 4 days from opening the bottle, the bitterness changed to a sweet flavor, like a fruit juice. It was still a delicious bottle.

At Namara Yoshi, Sapporo. This is the first time I went there since the relocation. First up was the steadfast Natsu Gin. It is gorgeous and sweet like citrus, but crisp and clean.

I bought this sake at my usual Tokyu basement because I wanted something different from my usual sake. From the label, I thought it would be a white wine-like drink, but it was quite sweet and robust.

I told them I wanted to finish with something sweet since the refreshing continued, and this is what I got. It's definitely sweet. It's also slightly carbonated, like an ambassa.
