It is distinctly dry! It's like a food sake that you want to drink with your meal all the time. I bought it on a trip to Ehime. I wonder if it is available outside of Shikoku.

I drank it cold. It was served with fried cabbage with shellfish oil. It's a refreshing sake that goes well with anything. It seems to go well with everything. I would easily repeat this bottle again.

Purchased at a roadside station called Tahara Mekun House. It is dry and goes well with Japanese food! I paired it with salmon, hanpen, and eggs with chives in soy sauce, and they all went well together.
I couldn't find it when I searched for the brand, so I wonder if it is sold only in the region?
I would like to purchase it again when I visit Mekun House (roadside station) in Tahara City, Aichi Prefecture.

It has a strong lactobacillus taste. Perfect for an aperitif. Easy to drink even for beginners ☺.

Kubota, a well-known sake.
It is really easy to drink.
I usually enjoy it lukewarm and do not like cold sake very much, but this one is delicious cold as well.
I drank it with Osechi, and it goes well with it.
It is not overpowered by the strong flavor of osechi, but it is not too assertive, so it goes well with osechi.
Apparently, there are different ranks of sake.
The one I drank this time was a special honjozo called Hyakusyu. I would like to try a different Kubota.

It is so different from the Hekiryuu I uploaded the other day! It is so different from the Hekiryuu I uploaded the other day! I like this one better.
I drank it warmed up, and it is easier to drink with less habit.
However, it is not so smooth and has a strong sake taste.
It is made from junmai ginjo-style sake.
I didn't realize how different they are even though they are the same brand. I learned a lot!

Sake tastes completely different at different temperatures!
The most refreshing is when it is served cold. It is easy to drink and goes well with food without disturbing it. I enjoyed it with mackerel miso.
When heated, the sweetness of the sake really stands out. I paired it with arare senbei (rice crackers). I paired it with arare senbei (rice crackers), but I think you can enjoy it alone with heated sake.
I enjoyed both.

I drank it with the chilori. I drank it at the same time as the light blue bottle, so it was like a drinking comparison. It is drier than the light blue bottle. The taste is more pronounced when it is served lukewarm.

I drank it with chili. It tasted like rice and was delicious! It was dry but mildly soft, and I was satisfied with the impression of the name.

It is firm and dry. I didn't notice much aroma.
I drank it warm. It goes well with Japanese food!
The moment you drink it, your mouth will feel refreshed, but the aftertaste is very typical of Japanese sake.

I heated up the sake. It is full-bodied, yet dry and crisp. It does not interfere with food. Perfect for this season.

It is refreshing and crisp!
Maybe because I drank it warm, it was also rich. The color is a little yellowish. I recommend it to those who prefer dry wine.
We enjoyed it slowly and deliciously.
The lid of the bottle was unusual, and I kind of liked that too.
I bought this bottle as a souvenir of my trip to Obuse, Nagano. I wish I had bought a bigger bottle.
