kanikani
First time drinking local sake. This sake brewery was started in Kusatsu-juku by a descendant of Ota Doukan. It is said that the brewery is involved in a wide range of activities, including making sake and wine exclusively for the Imperial Palace and the Kyoto Imperial Gardens. I had no idea.
The main taste is similar to Ganki, with a clean, slightly sweet and sour taste. I didn't know there was a sake I liked so close by. ❤️ I'll go to buy some next time I'm back home.
PS: I think the bitterness that lingers in the mouth increases as time goes by. It may be due to the temperature change.
