I chose this as my last drink of the day. The last time I visited this restaurant, this was the first drink I had. At that time, I was surprised at how delicious it was. I tasted it again today. It has a clean and refreshing taste. It's not that it has no taste, but it's fruity. But the fruity taste didn't die. Anyway, it's delicious (laughs).

AramasaNo.6 S-type生酒

This is my second No.6 in my life. Last time it was R-type, this time it's S-type. Delicious on the main island. I think it's good only for sake. You can drink it without feeling it's sake. It's like a wine with the sourness wiped away. If you don't like the sourness of wine, I would recommend this sake. It doesn't have the distinctive smell of traditional sake at all. It is a delicious sake that is neither sake nor wine. I want to drink it again and again.

The last sake of the day. I ordered a sake that wasn't on the menu. I had seen "Iso-Jango" on a few YouTube videos and had been wanting to try it someday. Before I drank it, I was a little intimidated by the name of the sake. I thought that "Iso" and "Boasting" had a vaguely Showa or old-fashioned image to them, and that it might have an old-fashioned sake smell to it. I'm an avid fan of sake, but I don't like traditional sake, and I can't drink it. However, I thought I had to try this highly rated sake, so I ordered it. As a result, it was definitely more like a Japanese sake than any other sake I've had today. However, I still think it's very easy to drink. It makes the food stand out nicely.

I've had it before, but the taste is similar to Nabeshima. It's a refreshing drink. I went into it expecting the taste to hit me harder, but it was very refreshing and was a nice choice for a sake that came after Nabeshima. This drink is delicious, too. Alcohol Content: 15%. Polishing rate: 47%.

It's insanely good. I drank 4 brands today and this was the best (maybe it's because I drank it first). It was refreshing. I don't think there are many sake beers that have this kind of sensation. It's not too sweet or too spicy. It's not too sweet, not too spicy, not too hot. Alcohol Content: 15%. Rice polishing ratio 60%.

The last of the night at Maruko. They wanted to drink summer sake and Niigata sake, so I chose "Abe" from the menu. It was a brand with the same surname as mine. I've had it a few times in the past and it left a deep impression on me as a sake that goes well with food, but this was my first time drinking a summer saké. But this is my first time to try it in summer. It is very crisp and clear. It's perfect as the last drink of the day and as a shime drink.

Last night in the first half of this year. I want to drink something other than Niigata, so I head out to the streets of Joetsu Takata. We find a place called Maruko that serves drinks other than those from Niigata, so we go here. When I look at the sake menu, I see "Hanayosu". What? One of the most popular brands is here? And. I ordered immediately. "This sake is very sweet," said the owner. I want to drink a popular brand of sake. I'm a very young man, after all. How did I feel after drinking it? Yes, it didn't feel like Japanese sake at all. You can guzzle this sake on its own. It's delicious. How is it as a saké? Hmmm, I don't know if it's good as a saké. It might be difficult to pair with a meal, but it's delicious! But it's delicious! No doubt about it. As expected, the restaurant serves it in a wine glass, perhaps because they want you to enjoy the aroma.

Kamonishiki, Shinsei No. 6, and Hanayosu, the latter half of which I'd like to drink in conjunction with the food, so I decided to take a stab at Keisaku. Fukushima's sake is my No. 1 so far, and Maruko seems to have some newer sake that I haven't tried yet, but I'll save that for the next time, as I know it's absolutely delicious. Yeah, you can't go wrong.

The sake I wanted to drink the most. I got to drink "Shinsei No. 6"! And in Joetsu. Ms. Maruko. Thank you very much. I felt as if my search for sake was over. The first time I drank this sake, I felt that it tasted completely different from any other sake I've had before. First of all, I didn't get that "ah-ha" feeling after drinking the sake. It's not sweet, so it's not sweet at all. It has no sweetness, so I feel refreshed after drinking it. I can drink as many as I want. The best sake in my opinion was the "Jyushiro", but I don't know. But I don't know if the Shinsei No.6 is the best. Anyway, it's definitely a unique taste that can't be found in any other sake. It is very good. I want to go to Maruko's to drink this sake again.

Niigata seems to be lagging behind the recent sake boom. Kamonishiki is one of the most popular sakes in the country, and I felt that it has caught on to the latest trend. After drinking it, the feeling of "Sake! I don't like the feeling that it's (in Niigata's sake).
