Kushira Junmai 80 Unfiltered Nama Sake
Dry with umami.
There is a bitterness in the aftertaste that quickly disappears.
It is easy to drink and eat with a crunch.
We received another autograph!
This time it is Tetsuya Sakai of the Chiyo Sake Brewery.
This is my favorite Shinomine. I was watching the video all over the place (lol).
I can meet him in person!
I went to Asano Sake Shop in Umeda~!
The store was bustling from noon.
I found Mr. Sakai at the counter! He was talking with a customer.
He went to the cash register with two bottles of Kushira and Shinomine. I asked him to speak to me at that moment.
Mr. Sakai, can you sign my book?
He gladly wrote it for me!
I am so happy! I'm going to brag about it at work!
Thank you, Mr. Sakai!
And the next day, Sunday. We started with the Kushira.
It has a fruity aroma. When I put it in my mouth, I could feel a slight shwashiness. The first sip was sweet, but the next sip was refreshingly dry.
I think I will drink it until it runs out....
It was a very delicious sake!
Hello, Pekkaal 🐦.
Signature! Nice ✨I hope you like Nara sake, both Kaze no Mori and Okura are awesome 😳I'm sure the sake tastes even better when I meet you in person 😊👍.
Good evening, Pon-chan!
I'm a Hiroshima Carp fan who loves my hometown, Nara, Hyogo. It's complicated, isn't it?
I started my sake swamp with "Kaze no Mori, Umenoyado, and Mimuro Sugi". From there, I've always been a Nara fan, and Nara is the only place I can win!
Kushira, Gosho City, Nara Prefecture, 80% polished rice nigori sake. I was afraid to open it because the label said to be careful of explosion, but nothing happened and I stirred it by myself.
Although it is a low-polished sake, it has a clean taste with no cloying flavors. The sweetness is moderate with a bitter dry aftertaste. It tastes like a rice cider, and you can't stop drinking it.
The aroma is grain-like and classic.
From the moment it enters the mouth, it has classic acidity, umami, and bitterness.
However, the aftertaste is quite light and not at all harsh.
The body is light, but the flavor has depth.
Modern or classic? Classic?
Exquisite balance.
