A little sake by myself. It’s finally autumn. I have been drinking at my own pace.
As usual, I was wandering around my usual liquor store when I came across an autumn-inspired label.
Autumn Agari. It shows a sense of the season. Drunken Whale is sold at various places, but the Autumn Age is only available at this time of the year.
It says “mellow and dry(芳醇辛口)” on the label. Dry sake is my specialty.
The mellow and dry taste(芳醇辛口) is the expression of the taste that the drunken whale brewery has come up with.
Sake, whale. Drunken whale. It’s a well established image.
Old cap. Be careful not to cut your hand.
Open the bottle.
I can hardly smell it, but there is a faint ginjo aroma.
Gubi!

Comment A:
It is “Aki-agari” by Drunken Whale. Easy to drink. The aroma is good.
The rest of the ginjo aroma is quite good. As expected of Drunken Whale, there is nothing to say.
Comment B:
I’ve been curious about it but haven’t been able to drink it for a long time.
It was delicious!
Good balance. Overall, it is light but deep, not too sweet, sweet and dry. It has a mellow, melon-like, sweet and refreshing taste, and a mellow spiciness that keeps you drinking it without getting tired of it. It is good. It is a mellow sake and a food sake.
Today’s snacks were in the refrigerator.
In Japan, cheese of this size is sold in sets of three, and I sometimes eat it as a snack.
Have a nice day.
