Akabu Junmai Ginjo is the first thing you should try when you come to Morioka. The first sip of Akabu Junmai Ginjo is a pleasant taste with a moderate sweetness and umami spreading through the mouth. We enjoyed it with a bowl of kaisen-don (fresh seafood on top of rice) and hirumeshi (rice cooked in the sun).
Kawabata Sakenabitei in Akita. A-Sakura super delicious dry. It has a little sourness and dryness, and the umami taste rolls around in the mouth and comes slowly. Mackerel stewed in miso goes well with it.
Near Niigata Station: I compared three kinds of sake at Benkei's crying place. The sweetness and umami are well-balanced and pleasantly spread in the mouth.
