Rather acidic. A light bitterness at the end.
It is similar to Masumi among the sake brands I am familiar with.
It was delicious even when heated!

It's been a week now, but I compared the drinks.
The difference is much greater than I expected.
This one has more gas and almost no sweetness. The sourness and bitterness are also stronger, giving the impression of a dry adult taste.

Purchased a set from IMADEYA!
I started with the regular Snowman.
It is rather well-balanced and easy to drink, with a touch of sweetness but also a light bitterness at the end.
Maybe it's because of the low alcohol content, but I finished it in one night 💦.

A limited edition, made in cedar barrels and covered with a woody aroma. The plain arabashiri is delicious, so this is also delicious!

Masumi純米吟醸 あらばしり
takashi
I drink this every year, and maybe it is just my imagination, but this year's Masumi Arabashiri was particularly tasty.
It has a freshness, of course, but the flavor of the rice is packed with flavor.

Lastly, since we were drinking in Osaka, we decided to try a local sake.
It was a very robust sake, and very drinkable.

I had a long-awaited solo drink at "KANNO Miho" during a business trip to Osaka.
I started with this nigori sake from the aperitif menu.
It was refreshing and slightly sweet!

Denshu純米吟醸 古城乃錦

Compared to regular tazake, it has a fruity flavor with a refreshing acidity and a bit of sweetness. It seems to be available only during the summer season, so it may be perfect for that time of the year as well.

It was delicious again this year!
The aroma was moderate, but the soft acidity and sweetness were great!

The aroma is modest. In a good sense, there are no outstanding characteristics, but it has a good balance of umami, acidity, and bitterness, and was delicious with a meal. As one would expect from Tazake.
