Today I went drinking at a sake bar I’ve been getting along with lately.

KuruKuru
Unpasteurized Sake Limited Edition

Enjoy the refreshing acidity and freshness reminiscent of fresh fruit—a seasonal flavor you can only savor at this time of year.

The name comes from the process of using an electric drill during the shubo stage (spinning it around).

“Kurukuru” is an onomatopoeic sound in Japanese.

The lid bears the family crest prominently.

It doesn’t have much of a scent.

Taste KuruKuru
Unpasteurized Sake Limited Editione

Refreshing and easy to drink. A slightly complex taste lingers after finishing. Perfect for beginners. Its subtle sweetness also makes it appealing to women. The sweetness is restrained, not overpowering, making it easy to drink.

Today’s snack is Original Potato Salad

This sake pairs exceptionally well with our original potato salad. The potato salad, made with less mayonnaise, features prosciutto and edamame in just the right balance. When you drink the sweet sake with it, the overall flavor balance harmonizes in your mouth, creating a delicious synergy where each enhances the other.　The food goes down well, and the drinks flow freely.

What will tomorrow bring?

The bar I visited today was Sake Labo Sanshirou
