It has a strong fruity aroma, with a good balance of acidity and sweetness. The aftertaste is followed by a slight astringency. It is a delicious sake.

The aroma is subdued, and the texture is light and soft. There is little sweetness, but umami and acidity can be felt. It lacks the juiciness of a fresh sake.

Dry. The first day I opened it, I thought it was not juicy, but on the second day, it changed to juicy. I think it is better to drink it after the second day.

This is a limited edition sake from a liquor store in front of Morioka station.
It has a slightly strong impact and a rich flavor, perhaps due to its 18% alcohol content. The acidity and umami can be felt well.

I was interested in buying this because it tastes like pineapple.
I tried it and was disappointed to find that the acidity was weaker than I expected and there was no sweetness. However, it went well with the entrée.

This is a very limited edition sake.
I could tell how good it tasted after just one sip.
It has a fruity aroma with a strong sweetness and acidity. The aftertaste is not only sweet but also umami. It is good with a side dish or as an aperitif. It is a wonderful sake.
If I have the opportunity to purchase it again, I will definitely do so.

This sake is from a project where you can buy the pressed sake the same day it is pressed, but I let it sit for a bit.
When you drink it, it has a smooth and calm mouthfeel. It has a gorgeous aroma, and the sweetness is well balanced with the acidity. It goes well with appetizers and can be served before or during a meal.

This sake is brewed with Yamagata-grown Tsuyahime.
It has a soft sweetness and a moderate umami, probably due to the rice. The harmony with the acidity is also to my liking. The aftertaste does not last very long. It goes well with Ate, and is recommended for both before and during meals.
