こまっちゃんI was able to buy 🦀 of seiko crab shells, so I rushed home and had dinner 🍶 (laughs).
Let's start with the standing aroma. It has a sweet aroma reminiscent of pale pears and peaches. In the mouth, there is a slight gasiness and a fresh, fruity sweet flavor that spreads in the mouth with a clean finish and a pleasant bitterness.

Delicious 😋.

Price including tax】 2,200 yen こまっちゃんJa jaan❗️ opened a bottle of Tojo today 😆 I'll do a taste comparison with Yoshikawa later.
Let's start with the standing aroma. The aroma is slightly sweet and sour. In the mouth, it is juicy, soft and sweet, with a citrus-like acidity and a slight bitterness at the end. The taste lingers for a long time. Yoshikawa is less sweet and has a smooth, clean taste. If I had to say, I would say that the Yoshikawa is more suited for a mealtime drink.
With fish paste. The sweetness and umami of this sake is enhanced when paired with octopus paste. It may go well with ingredients that are not too sweet. Next, with fried burdock root. The sweetness of Mita is moderate here.
Personally, I think Tojo is better on its own, and Yoshikawa is better as a pairing. Both are delicious, though.

こまっちゃんOh, I've never seen Bida before😳I couldn't help but ask the guy at the store and he told me that only 5 or so distributors in the whole country sell this 😍I actually bought another Tojo as well (lol)Be careful not to drink too much⚠️
Let's start with the standing aroma. The aroma is more subdued than I imagined. In the mouth, it has a beautiful and elegant sweetness, just like a junmai daiginjo. The acidity is more pronounced than expected, and there is a light bitterness. The mouthfeel is clean and light. It is easy to drink and is a great sake.
Next, I served it with new potatoes croquettes. The sweet and delicious flavor of this sake increased. The acidity and bitterness cut through the oil in the croquettes and helped to improve the flavor. Yes, it is good as a food sake👍.
