The rainy season is over and every day is hot! 🫨
To everyone in Sake-no-wa, please take care of your health condition such as heat stroke!
So, here is the sake I drank recently.
It was my first time to drink sake, but it was sweet and delicious! ♡♡♡♡
It is a summer sake, but it has a slight nigori (a slight nigori is a bit of a sour taste), and it is very alcoholic and thick.
It's not a very strong type of sake.
It has a sweet aroma like white peaches.
It is a sake that I want to drink every year.
Hi, kopi kopi!
Summer boulleu is delicious 😋.
I remember it was very delicious and aromatic when I was learning about it when I first started Sake no Wa 🤗.
Following yesterday's three-drink comparison.
Yesterday I couldn't tell, but it was actually cloudy 😆.
The aroma is still the same, like a gorgeous muscat.
What was that? Yesterday
I don't remember feeling so much sourness yesterday. It feels gassy and sour rather than sweet and sour.
Maybe it was sinking with the cage?
I'm learning a lot.
A light, umami-kuchi sake.
It is lighter than regular fire-aged junmai sake.
Overall, it is mild and this is also light and fresh.
Elegant in the best sense of the word.
Definitely delicious, but I prefer the fire-aged version!
Early Spring Junmai Namaishu 1800ml.
Seasonal Junmai sake only for summer.
It has a refreshing taste
Refreshing aroma and dry aftertaste,
The lightness is the best ❤️
It's a cosy summer sake and really delicious☻
Delicious! I feel like I should keep this one to myself.
It's just as described on the label.
Lightly cloudy and a little sweet and sour.
I drank it on the second day after opening the bottle, but I think it is best right after opening.
Hi, missoro120, nice to meet you.
I got to know you from Sake no Wasa last year and you are really delicious ✨.
I could feel how much you liked it 😁✨✨✨.
We are past Obon and the summer sake continues.
Today, we opened a bottle of early spring summer bourroux.
This sake is made by Hayakawa Shuzo, which is famous for Tamitsu, but we have no experience with either Hayaharu or Tamitsu, so this summer bourroux is a new one for us.
As stated on the back label, bourroux is a cloudy sake, and when poured into a glass, it was slightly cloudy white. The aroma is strong, and from the moment the bottle is opened, a fruity and fresh aroma with a hint of sweetness wafts through the air. The main flavors are sweetness and acidity, with a pleasant bitterness that keeps the overall taste tight. It is not a light summer sake, but rather a voluminous sake with a solid volume.
The aroma and taste of this sake have a unique nuance, but it was not the first time I had experienced it, so I was drinking it from memory. After a while, I came across amayadori by Kawatake Brewery, also from Mie Prefecture. The specifications and specific name are different, and I felt a similarity, not in the taste or aroma itself, but in the nuance (≒flavor?). I found that they are both brewed in Mie Prefecture. I found out that both breweries use Mie yeast, which was developed in Mie Prefecture, so I guess that might be the reason for the similarity.
By the way, I really like the classy and understated label of this summer's Boulud.
