This time it is Soma no Tengu. This sake is from Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture. Lightly chilled. It is a silky, slightly cloudy sake. The top aroma is fresh and juicy with hints of apple, blue melon peel, and cypress. The mouthfeel has a slight richness. The fresh blue melon aroma gives way to a full-bodied, fine-grained, milky sweet and savory taste. The aftertaste has a sharp grapefruit-like bitter acidity mixed with sweet umami, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. Saki-ten is a fresh, full-bodied sake that can be drunk without hesitation. It is delicious. From Takashima, where Furoisen is located, we received tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce), a specialty of Lake Biwa. There are many kinds of tsukudani, such as tsukudani of gori, tsukudani of ayu fish, and grilled skewers of moroko. And when I rummaged through our refrigerator, there it was! Soma no tengu👺. What a beautiful day to open the bottle 😆🍶.

Good evening, Hirupeco 😃. Somaten it is 👺. I saw your tasting comment that looks so delicious and reminded me once again of the great taste 🤤. You can't go wrong with pairing it with local sake snacks where the brewery is located: ☺️

Good evening, Aladdin. Did you get my soma love? I knew it would be delicious 😍I don't eat moroko or gori. I'm personally in the labyrinth of tasting right now, so it's times like this when I need local sake power 😆.

Hi, Hirupeko 😀 It's a great idea to have a Tengu in the middle of a lineup of Lake Biwa's specialties 😇. Local sake is the best match for local food 😇.

Hi Hirupeko, good evening 😁. I didn't know that 😭 I'm sure you'll love it 😍 I think Shiga Prefecture snacks would go well with Shiga Prefecture sake 😁 I'll try to pair it with Shiga Prefecture products next time!

Good evening, Ao. Soma no Tengu is hard to read, isn't it? It might be one of the hard-to-read sake. But it is easier to drink than Furoisen, so please try it with some snacks from Lake Biwa 😊.
