Today, I had a drink alone again. I went to Sendai. It’s a very nice place. It was my first time there, but it has nature and is a livable place with a downtown area in front of the station. Of course, there was local sake to enjoy. Beef tongue is also famous there, which I wrote about in another article.
I bought some local sake from Sendai.
Meisousui
It looks neat and refreshing. Yamawa Sake Brewery is a famous sake brewery that distributes its products nationwide.
The lid has nothing written on it.

Mild sweet scent.

Taste Meisousui
Quite alcoholic.
Tastes like water.
Complex finish.
Strongly astringent and somewhat peculiar.
Easy to drink for intermediate drinkers and above, but may be a little difficult for beginners. More similar to sake from the Showa era than fruity. Quite alcoholic.

Not too sweet, so it seems like a sake you could drink for a long time.
Today’s snack is Sasakamaboko
I bought bamboo leaf kamaboko in Sendai. Bamboo leaf kamaboko is a famous local product of Sendai.
I paired it with local sake, as it goes well with local sake.
I chose plain among the various flavors.
I paired it with something else. They go well together.
The creaminess of the bamboo leaf-wrapped kamaboko and the sharpness of the sake complement each other, making both milder. The world is well designed. Today was another great day. What should I drink tomorrow?
