At Tenya-cho Gotoh in Hakata, Japan.
Made from 100% "Yamadanishiki" from Hyogo Prefecture.
It is aged so long that the brewer does not remember it, and then laid down for another two years.
Warmed to lukewarm.
Very rich and full-bodied.
Sour.
Bittersweet.
Production date: October 2022
This junmai sake is made from Misato Nishiki grown in Akita Prefecture. The aroma and sweetness are kept to a minimum, and the crisp acidity is kept to the forefront, making this sake very suitable for meals. It is amazing to taste such a beautiful acidity...you can also enjoy the delicious flavor of the rice!
It's a three-day weekend in the world and I have to work tomorrow, so today is the end of my vacation 😓, so I'll be drinking early this evening! I'm going to drink👍
I opened a bottle of Hirasen's Natsunama in the evening.
This one has a great acidity❗️, not so much aroma, but the moment you put it in your mouth, you will definitely say "sweet and sour❗️". ❗️
It is soft on the throat, but it is the acidity that stands out.
In a word, Natsunama is a sake with such a sweet and sour taste.
What matched here more than meat or thick fried bean curd is mizuyokan. I will finish the introduction of Natsunama, a remnant of summer, with a picture of the soup curry we had for lunch.
A lot of people have said that Natsunama is delicious, and I'm convinced it was 😊💕.
Good evening, Mr. Wakata😄.
The Marufei series is sweet and sour ❣️ no matter what you drink!
Maybe there are different tastes, but it's a very distinctive sake 🎶.
I also reviewed another Marufei 😊.
Good evening, Wakata 🌛.
Thanks for your work 🥰.
I'm working all the time too, three-day weekend is a dream 🤣.
The soup curry with a lot of ingredients looks so delicious ✨️
Hi Wakata 😃
Natsunama, I love this sweet and sour one so much that it's one of my repeat purchases every year: ❣️
Well done that you have matched this sweet and sour Natsunama with Japanese sweets! I can't imagine for a moment 💭 but it goes well together: ⁉️
Hi Jay & Nobby😃My husband often checks the sake level. I guess it's a number that makes sake drinkers curious 😁The individuality of Hiraizumi was really sharp 😋.
Hi HinaHanaMama, good evening 😃I see this is a repeat purchase in the HinaHana household. But I understand ❗️ this sourness was one that I wanted to drink on a hot day 😋Mizuyokan and Natsunama, the sourness softened and it became like you can drink it easily👍.
Scoring: ☆☆☆☆
Marubi's light nigori draft from Hirasen: ❣️
It seems it's only available in Akita prefecture 😁.
The aroma is lactic acidic and refreshing💕.
Fine gasiness on the palate 👍
Sharp citric acidity from Hirasen's specialty yeast No. 77 😆.
Juicy flavor and refreshing sweetness spreads 😋.
Elegant sweetness that you wouldn't expect from a sake with a sake strength of -17 and a mild acidity that you wouldn't expect from an acidity of 3.6 🎶.
A little strong sourness, but still sweet and juicy 💕
The third one is local Negi Miso Ramen 🍜❣️
Stable taste 😋👍
I can feel the careful preparation 😆.
Marufei, there are a lot of things 🤔
I was talking about ramen🍜 at work today and...
Ramen 🍜 pictures 😵💫🍜💔💔🍜🍜🍜🍜💔.
I don't have time to go out to eat 😭
Good morning, T.KISO😃Marufei here, I see it's only available in Akita: ❗️ Lightly muddled, sweet and sour, perfect for a summer evening😍I'm absolutely jealous of the taste 😆Negi miso ramen looks delicious and reminds me of Miyagi✨.
Good morning, Wakata-san: ☀️
The unlikely Yamahai Junmai light nigori raw ❣️
It seems to be sold only in small quantities and only in Akita Prefecture🎶.
I was born in Akita,
I'm glad I was born in Akita...✧ ✧ ✧ ✧ ✧ ✧ ✧ ✧ ✧
Miyamanishiki and Akita Sake Komachi.
The slightly acidic umami of Miyamanishiki and Akita Sake Komachi is deeply present until the mid-palate.
The richness of the umami is accompanied by a slight sinking in the back half of the mouth.
Doi Shoten's Limited Ice-Tempered 3-Year Aged Sake
The first thing to notice is the cocoa-like aged aroma and sweet acidity.
The first thing you notice is the umami that comes from the thickened mouthfeel. The sweetness and umami come from the acidity that is typical of Yamahai sake, which spreads in the mouth with a sweet taste.
It has a long lingering aftertaste with a firm rough texture on the tongue and the umami lingers for a long time.
I will drink this one right away and let the rest sit in ice temperature for a little longer 😊.
I've been repeating my sake recommendations 😅Today I had four season hiyaoroshi and had the seasonal fall fish, which is getting bigger and bigger 👍And I also had a salad and a combination of shrimp and tofu, then got some boiled peanuts 🥜 to snack on 😋 #yaohiro #yaohiro tsujido #tsujiido #fujisawa
Yesterday's Shirohong was unexpectedly not to my liking... and it's Thursday, but not enough 😭.
Then there will only be the earliest opening of the bottle! I'm not sure how I'm going to do it 🤭.
I told myself (I'm weak in greed 😓)...I'll open it ❗️ lol
Well, today is the first time to open a bottle of Tobirai Kugu from Tobirairai's lineup 🍶.
I was shocked by Tobiraira's Natsunama when I drank it in Tokyo last month... I bought it immediately at the liquor store with high expectations because it has the same No.77 yeast 🤭.
When I opened the bottle... the aroma made me grin ✨.
Pouring it into the glass, the aroma is just like an apple, because of the malic acid yeast 🥰....
Let's have it right away 😋.
The moment it hits the palate, it has a rich apple acidity, but strangely, it's not hard to drink 🤔.
I feel the same line of taste as Natsunama, but this 💁 has more sourness and less sweetness.
However, although it is made with Yamahai, it does not have any peculiar peculiarities and is well-balanced and easy to drink 👌.
If you are not good at drinking sake, you may feel a little bit of alcohol or sake-like sensation 💧.
The taste is similar to that of Kamogane's Reic acid. 🙂↕️
Day 2🗒️
I think the richness of the wine has calmed down from the first day❓
It is a taste that can be clearly divided into likes and dislikes 🤔.
CWS🐈 in Hiraizumi
I've been wanting to try this series for a while because of how cute the illustration is. I rushed out to buy it when I saw the liquor store's arrival information.
The aroma is sweet citrus like 🍊mikan. I expected more acidity, but it was relatively mild.
When you take a sip, it's smooth and clear on the palate ✨It goes down your throat smoothly and cleanly, ending with a tasty sourness and bitterness.
There is a tangerine and sugared grapefruit feeling throughout.
Overall, it's a mild and refreshing sweet and sour like honey lemon, a dangerous one to gobble up 🍹.
I'd like to compare it with Sour Boy and Sour Girl!
Hi Kotaro 😃.
This kind of illustrated label is very eye-catching 😊.
🍊 flavored sweet and sour is also suggestive 😍.
I'd love to take you there if you see it ‼️
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I'm curious about the label that doesn't look like sake 😆 The concept is to make it casual enough to drink with a straw... 🧐Succinese 🍊Sweet and sour Please bring it home 🥳.
Good evening, Kotaro-san 🦉.
I've been curious about Hirasen because I've been drinking only Maruhi and not others 😁I see this is a series! I'd like to try some of them 🎶.
Good evening, Ponchan 🌙Thank you for your late reply🙏💦.
This is a series, there is a blue boy's one and a pink girl's one, they are cute ☺️
I think Pon-chan would like it because it's sweet and sour just like the label says, so if you see it, please do 🥳.
