It's time for this year's "Galaxy label" again. Junsei Aizan Namaishimo Junmai Ginjo Oragami Galaxy label.
If you go to buy it in person, it will be sold out by reservation, so don't miss out on pre-ordering it.
When you open the bottle, you will hear the sound of acidity. When you pour it into a glass, air bubbles form around the rim. It is dry and has a spiciness that lingers.
It was delicious this year, too!
Today is also my first time to visit the "Junqing" series 🍶.
I dove into this newly found liquor store 😊I went in with high expectations as there were bottles of sake on display in the window of the store.
The store was surprisingly small and didn't have that many sakes, but there was a large variety of sake on display, all in single bottles only😊.
I stared at the fridge for a long time, and after examining which one I would like to bring, I did.
I opened the bottle and started with the aroma...
The aroma is slightly fruity, but it has a mature aroma. The aftertaste is slightly spicy with a hint of spiciness. It is a very high standard sake as a food sake 😋.
Good evening, Mr. Baum 😃.
Congratulations on getting your first one at your first liquor store ㊗️ 🎉Junqing! First time I've seen it and it's a hit🎯 and looks like a delicious food wine 😋.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😊you were lucky 😊It's a challenge to bring a first timer to ✌️ but you were right to bring them with the sake rice selection 🎉.
It was a 23-year-old sake, but it was fire-aged, so it tasted good without being stale.
This is also a supporter sake. It is very helpful to be able to enjoy freshness for a long time!
I took a week off from drinking and bought some Junsei Nojoho at a liquor store in a neighboring city without the guts to go to the brewery. (I really should have gone to buy sake for plum wine!)
I've wanted to buy it since its release, but never came across it. I had a hard time deciding which to buy, Koshi or Nojoho.
The popup said it was dry, but it was spicy with a bit of sweetness. It seems to be typical of Tomikunishiki.
It's a good drink at 16 degrees, and after a day off from drinking, so it's a kiki.
The sake I guessed is delicious.
Spring Nigorinpic 76
When I visited Tomihisaiki last autumn, I applied for the Junsei Supporter program.
Junsei is another brand of Tomihisaiki, which was started by Tomihisaiki with a focus on the sake brewing method.
If you become a supporter, you can have 6 bottles of Junsei delivered to your home within a year.
One of them was this Junmai Ginjo Oorigarami 😀.
Of course I like regular ogorami because of the sweetness and umami of the rice, but this ogorami was my favorite because it had a mellower rice flavor than the other ogorami, as if it was a sake brewed from a sake yeast 😀.
We also have nigori sake from Tomikunishiki, so tomorrow we will compare the nigori sake from Tomikunishiki🤣.
Yasube, good evening 🌛Fujunishiki is in Kasai city ✨I passed by the brewery many times on business but never got to try it 😅I think it's not easy to get to, but I don't think it's a walk from Hokkaguchi station 👀.
Hi Yasubeyesan 🐦.
That's something you can only get from visiting a sake brewery😊👍✨I'm curious because I haven't had Morinori and Junsei out of HYO5KURA ❣️ I don't see Tomikunishiki very often, so maybe I'll visit the brewery once...
Hi Nao888!
I actually walked over one mountain from Kakogawa on the Seto Inland Sea side, then visited the warehouse and walked from there to Hokkeguchi 🤣.
But the harvest was worth the effort😇.
Please take a peek 😇
Hi Pon 😀
It's pretty inconvenient if you're walking, but it's pretty easy to get to if you have a car 😇.
However, the food and sake paired with the food at Fukura, which is attached to Tomikunishiki, is a good combination, so walking is recommended 🤣.
Refreshingly acidic and refreshing entrance.
Slightly limey green flavor.
The rice flavor and graininess after swallowing.
A mild and simple sake.
It seems to be good as a food sake.
Taste level 3.5/5
The sake rice is Aiyama. Yes, the one known as "diamond. It is produced only in Hyogo Prefecture, and Kasai is a famous production center. Tomikunishiki Aizan. Slightly sweet aroma. The first day it was solid with a slight effervescence, but from the second day onward, the rice sweetness was well expressed, and it was delicious. It is a superb wine. The slight bitterness at the end is also nice.
