Today we had another classic sake, Saku 🍶.
Saku is a stable and delicious sake, but there are so many varieties that it's hard to get all of them 😅On top of that, it's a brand that is not available in regular liquor stores, so we always had to take you on an expedition to get it, but finally we found it 💡.
I didn't expect to find it in a department store 😅.
I brought it with me immediately and opened the bottle.
The aroma is fruity but not too sweet and refreshing!
After taking a sip, it was still very crisp and clean, and it flowed smoothly down the throat 😋.
My wife and I were both saying at the same time, "Saku is really good" 😊.
Beautiful is the perfect word to describe this sake in my opinion 🍶!
I was happy to drink delicious sake tonight as well 🥰.

The aroma is fruity and the mouthfeel is refreshing, just like the image. It also has a refreshing taste and leaves no aftertaste. When matched with food, the mouthfeel changes subtly, making it even better.
It does not feel alcoholic for its 15% alcohol content, which is good for people who are just starting to drink sake. ⁉️
On the second day, it became even milder.
It has no peculiarities at all and feels soft and "watery" in the extreme.
This is a great introduction to sake!
Preference:★★★★☆(4.5)
I was thinking 🤔 what sake to pair with nabe today 🍲, when I was able to taste it at the liquor store in Takashimaya and chose this one because it has a nice sharp and balanced taste and the sales person said this sake would go well with nabe👍.
The aroma from the sake cup is a grain-like aroma that is typical of sake. In the mouth, there is a slight sweetness, sourness, and bitterness, and the taste is well-balanced and refreshing with umami. It is a sake that you will not get tired of drinking. And the cost performance is also great 👌I recommend this for everyday drinking 😊.
I paired it with some yellowtail sashimi that I bought when I bought the sake. From here I changed to lukewarm 🍶I think the acidity increased a bit. While the flavor of the sashimi is enhanced, the moderate acidity of this sake creates a pleasant harmony in the taste and makes it a mellow drink 🥴.
Then, to the nabe (hot pot). The acidity comes first, followed by a slight sweetness. The aftertaste is refreshing and makes the meal more enjoyable. ❤️
Personally, I prefer it cold rather than lukewarm.
