@水橋Sogen Shinshu Shiboritate Nama-nazake 720ml [Winter only Alcohol content: 19%. Rice polishing ratio: 65 SAKURA is now my aperitif, so I opened a bottle of Sogen for my mid-meal drink. I found it in the fridge of Yamaya in Nanao last month! Manufactured in 2024.2 means it is a sake that survived 1.1. 12 to 19 degrees. It is sweet, thick, and delicious. I'm going to warm the rest of it tonight.

寿梨庵The aroma of sweet, mild koji malt rises to the surface. When you drink it, it has a melon-like fruitiness 🍈 and the thick umami of the rice comes through with a bang. The sweetness is firm, but crisp and clear. It is like pure ripe rice juice. I don't think there is such a thing as fully ripe rice, but that is my impression. It seems to be a four-stage brewing process, so I guess that's the effect 🤔. 19°❕. But I don't think it's that much degrees and it's refined ✨. I felt like a slightly milder version of Shiboritate by Shiborizuru, but the impression is very different 😋.

ヒラッチョJurian, good evening 🌆. I have had this before and I have a strong memory of it, with quite a booming rich mellow impact. It is different from Shiboritate of Shiborizuru, but it comes to mind, doesn't it?

寿梨庵Hi Hi Hiraccio, ☀️ I think you are right about the richness of the sake. I found its thickness to be unparalleled, but it was an interesting sake without much heaviness 👍.

ペンギンブルーNama sake chemical, vegetable, celery. They said the aroma is common in Honjozo Nama-no-Honshu. When I tried it with a sense of dislike, it wasn't so bad. It has a sweetness that makes it a little nettlesome. But umami. Alcohol and astringency. Combine it with eggs and other ingredients. Not enough to get rid of my dislike for it, but not bad.

ロビンI just had to stop by 😁. We were given a bottle of Sogen, which was recommended by one of the regulars at the restaurant! Although it is a brewed sake, it is a gorgeous and very easy-drinking sake, and I was surprised at the taste, which I could not imagine from the label. I can imagine the junmai sake here must be delicious too! I am interested 😃. You need to be adventurous and not be limited by preconceived notions of what a sake should look like 👍.

ヤスベェHi Robin 😀 I too have lost a lot because of preconceived notions of names and labels 🤣. These days, I'm lucky that I can get a lot of information in advance at sakewa😇. The hanpukai is also a fun way to meet a variety of sakes 😀.

ロビンHi Yasbay, ☀️ I don't know when I buy something with a label, right? But I always buy them by their labels 🤣. Thanks for all the information about Sake no Wa. I've never been to a hanpukai, but I'll check it out if I get the chance 😀.

hatahataSake purchased during my stay in Ishikawa. Freshly pressed aroma. It has a strong sweetness and a rich umami flavor, and the end is a clean cut. A little sweet but very much to my liking. I hope Sogen Sake Brewery will be able to resume business as soon as possible.
