Purchased at KIOSK in Sendai Station.
We had it with various flavors of sasakamashi, which we also purchased at Sendai Station.
It comes with a small, transparent lid-like cup, which is very convenient.
I thought it would be good for a beginner like me to be able to drink easily because of the vending machine style tasting available at the store.
I selected this one, which I was somewhat interested in after reading the description of about 50 words.
The freshness in the mouth and the crisp taste in the throat after swallowing were impressive.
Kyokusen Junmai Dry Taste
I was somewhat curious about this sake, which was sold in a set of two with a Junmai Daiginjo at a local sake brewery in Kanazawa.
The taste was a shock to my tongue, and the aroma that passed through my nose made me feel like I had climbed the ladder to adulthood. This is exactly the image I had of sake.
Bitter or pungent, or something like that. I apologize for my poor expression.
THE alcohol! I thought it would go well with something with a strong flavor, so I enjoyed it with some shiso miso (from KALDI) and kimchi (kimchi). However, now that I have enjoyed several bottles of sake, I personally feel that it is better to enjoy the dry sake with a gentle soup stock such as Kanazawa oden to keep a good balance.
We had a sake tasting set and oden at Kanaeki Chikuwa.
I think 2 out of 3 were dry.
I'm too stupid to understand the difference other than "this is dry".... But it was good because it was delicious!
The dry one went well with the Kanazawa oden! And these two types of snacks also went well together... I have so many fateful encounters with both sake and snacks that I can't stop crushing on them.
