boukenIt was hard to ask them to let me take a picture because they looked so busy, so no picture.
The aroma is classic Japanese sake. When you drink it, it is quite refreshing and slightly sweet. The color is dark and I wonder if it has aged a bit.
I was allowed to take a picture of it as the restaurant was getting settled, so I switched it out.

boukenI often come to Sakuramurocho at the department store, but I've never had a drink there. If I drink it at home, I want to choose fresh.
boukenI was able to drink the sealed bottle. The taste is fresh and clean, just as the label implies. A little fruity. It seems to be once-fired, so it still tastes fresh.

boukenI also drank Asakayousei Junmai Daiginjo Mizukagami Unfiltered Nama-shu, but I didn't post it because I've already posted it in the past.
boukenThis is a rare aluzoe sake for Asakaya. It's beautiful, but you don't feel the glamour for the rice polishing ratio. It is a calm and relaxed sake.

boukenI like Asakaya raw better when it's raw. If it doesn't have the gas feeling and the peculiar taste of Asakaya raw...
boukenIt's so fruity and fresh. Even though it is fire-aged, it has a freshness. It's a type that has a sweetness ahead of the others, and it seems to be better when it's chilled. I can trust a place where the standard products are good.
boukenThe place I drank it at said it was hiyaoroshi, but the label was the regular stuff. I wonder what it actually is? It tasted a little bit like a hiyaoroshi (cold brewed sake), and it was a different type of flavor from the gin fusetsuetsu I had before.

boukenAsakayo has never ♥ grown much until now, but for the first time I'm over 50. Thank you!

boukenIt doesn't say unpressurized, so I'm guessing it's regular pressing?
boukenThe rice is five hundred million goku. It has a solid taste, but the flavor is strong and delicious. Personally, I like Sae better than the Hyakurakumon if it is a dry type of sake.

boukenIt's high on the sake scale, but it's not that spicy.
boukenThey said it was sweet, but what do you think? I think it's a matta type of drink. It had a smoky feel to it. It tasted like nothing I've ever tasted before.
