橘マサキ
This sake is made by Shibotan, the same company that produces my sake of choice, "Nihon wo Imaichidotte Sentakushimashou. I did not know Ichirei's name, so I ordered it and was served it in a wine glass because "it has a nice aroma. The words and the name are true. Smelling it like wine, the aroma was sweet and rich, reminiscent of flowers. And the taste was dark sweet, as if that impression was made into a liquid. While it is sweet, it does not leave a sticky residue, but rather cuts crisply through the palate while retaining a bit of flavor. It has a slight tangy taste, which may bother some people if drunk on its own. If so, we recommend that you try it with a meal. The aroma is so strong that it may eat away at delicate flavors. Please drink it with something bold.

The moment you put it in your mouth, you will feel the smell of alcohol and sourness, just like a sake labeled "hot sake" at an izakaya (Japanese-style pub). Some people may find it peculiar. However, it has a rich flavor and a thick sweetness, and there is almost no residual taste after swallowing. The first impression and the good-bye impression are completely different. Many people may not like the initial flavor, but this is definitely a bottle that I can recommend to sake lovers. But it seems to be ...... out of print. ...... What a waste: ......

It is sweet. Perhaps because it is a daiginjo, it leaves a sour and slightly cloying aftertaste when drunk alone. However, when paired with a meal (especially one with a strong flavor), the acidity and other tastes disappear, leaving behind an aromatic sweetness. Delicious!
