It has been a long time since I bought it. Yamamoto. Probably my first Butterfly Purple. Overall, it has a nice sharp taste. I may have chilled it a little too much, It is juicy, acidic, and tasty, so I would say it is a deep dry wine. It's like pure black with a touch of sex appeal. I think they probably thought a lot about the relationship between the color and the taste.

It is impossible to clearly define what one's favorite taste is, including one's mood, but if there were to be a definition of good sake, it would be this one, with a compelling taste. There are many factors such as sweetness, umami, dryness, aroma, sharpness, etc., but this is the base. This is the base of sake.

I've been drinking a lot of sweet sake lately, which I like, and I'm a little tired. I was looking for something a little more orthodox and tasty, so I went for Collage and Miyazumi, but for some reason I bought Ippakusuisei MovingSaturday. I still can't explain why I bought this one, but it is delicious. I think it is one of the sweeter Isshiro Suisei. It is basically composed of umami and sweetness, and is held together by a moderate acidity. The aroma is gorgeous and pleasant. In the end, it was my favorite sake again.

It's been a long time since I've had a Sake Mirai. I think this is the driest Sake Mirai I've ever had. I don't know if dry is the right word, but the ginjo aroma is strong. When you put it in your mouth, it is more refreshing than I expected. The aroma on the nose is stronger than the taste on the tongue. It's something unique. Like a clear cola? I think it would be more balanced if it were a little lukewarm.

The second day tasted better than the first, with more rice flavor. I don't know if it was a change in the taste of the sake or a blur on my part.
