Sake from Hokkaido is a bit rare, so I try to drink it whenever I see it, but this one is very refreshing and easy to drink.
It goes very well with sashimi.
While it is described as aromatic, the nose does not detect any aroma. However, in the mouth, it has a mild floral flavor, followed by a sharpness. It is a very tasty food sake. This is Akita, after all.
It is good with simmered vegetables and stir-fried eggplant with sweet and spicy sauce. The acidity of the sake may stand out when paired with unexpected things. It went well with yakitori.
The description says it contains a lot of malic acid, and it certainly tastes apple-like in its sourness and sweetness. Is it the kind of flavor you would find in an aperitif?
The taste is too strong to win over sashimi. It barely goes well with red prawns.
I tried to match it with konbu-marinated baby skin, thinking it would go well with it, but although they do not defeat each other, they cancel each other out beautifully and the deliciousness disappears, making it a mystery.
It has a sweetness that is typical of Sentori, but the 90% polished rice ratio and the aroma of the wooden vat give it a very unique flavor.
It goes well with fried burdock and shiitake mushrooms. It does not go well with fried Chinese cabbage and minced meat with miso due to the lack of flavor of the cabbage. It does not go well with salmon sashimi either... Anyway, it seems to go well with foods with strong flavors and strong cheeses.
The sake is sharp, yet mellow and very easy to drink. I had assumed that Kubota Senju was a common sake, but it is a very tasty sake.
It matched well with octopus sashimi, and also matched well with salted pork.
It is clean, dry, and easy to drink. However, it still has a Junmai (pure rice) feel to it, or the feeling of it coming down your throat.
It goes well with salted pork, but the spiciness may be a little too much. It is too spicy to go well with octopus. However, since it is relatively neutral, it is surprisingly good with mustard alone.
The label has sparkling stones and looks very sweet, but as the label says "Brut," it has a surprisingly sharp taste. The aroma is sweet, and the mouthfeel is sweet but refreshing.
It was a perfect match for sushi.
Quite a crisp and strong sake. It has a strong flavor.
It doesn't go well with peach mozzarella, but it went very well with the strong flavored stir-fried mushrooms with yuzu kosho. I am looking forward to seeing what we will pair it with next.
I love the label, it's cute.
When I drank it, I found it to be very light. It is dry with a touch of acidity and goes down smoothly.
It goes well with grilled and soaked eggplant. It does not go well with mentaiko shirataki, but it goes well with fried mushrooms with yuzu kosho.
It is a strange sake that has a surprisingly sweet flavor when drunk with a meal.
The taste is solid and robust for the first time in a long time. It has a strong sweetness and no astringency or sourness, so it does not taste that heavy, but the flavor is very distinct.
It goes well with chicken sashimi with a strong sauce, as it should. It does not go well with ahi jio with lots of vegetables. It also goes well with sea urchin squid (a kind of salted sea urchin flavored squid).
Dry and refreshing, it is a delicious summer sake. Though I felt the dryness was a gap from the sake I was drinking before,
It goes well with yellowtail sashimi and yari squid geso sashimi.
The first sip was "Sweet! I exclaimed, but after the sweetness, there is also a sharpness.
I was wondering if it could be paired with sashimi, but it was a perfect match with Yari-ika Geso-Sashimi (squid with ginger and soy sauce). It also goes well with red shrimp sashimi! It also went well with luxurious stir-fried summer vegetables and chicken, as if to wash away the greasiness. On the other hand, I think it is a little too strong for light sashimi such as sea bream sashimi.
Refreshingly dry. The acidity comes first and then flows smoothly, making it perfect for summer.
It is a little strong, but basically it goes very well with sashimi and can be drunk without hesitation.
Sweet! I haven't had such a sweet sake in a long time...? I was a bit surprised because I had an image of Aizu Chusho as a dry sake.
I wonder if it would push everything away too much to be used as a food sake.
It has been a long time since I have had nigori sake. The lees have accumulated about 1.5 cm from the bottom, making it white.
When you drink it, the sweetness and sourness come in a big rush, and it has a great lactobacillus feeling. It is like drinking yogurt.
It has a very complex taste and is even a little pleasant when paired with sashimi. I think it goes well with sausages. It also goes well with pork-free tonpei-yaki (pei-yaki). Surprisingly, it seems to go well with junky food.
The wings on the back label are cute.
It is very tasty with a good balance of sweetness and sharpness.
It goes well with satsuma-age (fried fish cakes) and char-grilled chicken, and was soon gone.
It has a clean and sharp taste, not without sweetness, but very simple and delicious.
It is the day of the Ox, so we are having eel, and it goes very well with it. It is so delicious that I think I will run out of a bottle in one night...
