Manzaku no hana (flower of mandarin orange)
First time for Aizan in the Tourmai series
The kind of sake that changes almost monthly and is made with a different sake rice.
I thought it was just this time of year for Aiyama, but I bought it at a closing sale at a liquor store the other day, so it's exactly one year old 🤣.
Probably ok! (and I believe you 😁)
You can feel the sweetness in your mouth, the sweetness of the rice (because it's Aiyama, after all?).
But not too sweet and delicious 😋.
Beautiful and sweet, the kind of thing that you can drink smoothly.
No problem, I could (and should 😚) drink it deliciously!
Good morning, Takashi-san.
Mansaku flowers, a few years ago we used to get them at a local pub 🎵.
Interesting series here ✨.
I would love to follow it for a year if there is a special store near me 😊.
Good morning, ma-ki-😊.
This is the first time for me to try the Tourmai series, but it's an interesting project.
It would be fun to put them all together and compare them 😋.
7/10
Mansaku no Hana no Tourmai Sake Series.
November is Aizan.
I have the impression that Aiyama is a rice that really shows its characteristics well.
It has a very different flavor from October's Akinosei.
I think it is characterized by a distinct sweetness.
Yeast No. 12 has a clean image, but I have the impression that Aizan has a clear sweetness and umami.
6/10
Mansaku no Hana no Miguribi Sake Series.
Autumn Sei in October.
Aki-no-Sei is a sake rice unique to Akita, and I have not heard much about it.
It was described as having a sour taste with umami, but the acidity was more pronounced.
The aroma is rather dry, with an isoamyl acetate type aroma.
The low milling rate was also a good thing, as it allowed the rice to be felt.
Alcohol content 15%.
Rice polishing ratio 45
When opened
The aroma is subdued.
Thinly wafting ginjo aroma
Sip
Moderate sweetness and no bitterness
No strong alcohol taste
Very refreshing to drink
Right in the middle of sake orthodoxy
In a trend where strong individuality leads to popularity
Not too sweet and not too bitter
The deliciousness of polished rice
At first, I thought it was a sake without individuality
but every time I tasted it, I recognized its goodness.
I think it is important that this kind of sake is appreciated.
First mandarin orange
I didn't know which one to buy, so I got this label that was cute!
Aizan" and "Kame-no-o" are both from Aikame🐢❤️
It tastes like it would go well with a variety of meals!
I'm going to enjoy it while eating slowly!
This year's new varieties will be the first to go.
Get Hinomaru Brewing Mileage Club limited edition sake.
New sake just pressed and shipped the same day it is bottled.
100% Akita Sake Komachi.
Pressed on 12/3 and arrived on 12/5.
Almost clear when the newspaper is removed.
The bottle is opened with a whiff of ginjo aroma.
It has a slight freshness with a hint of petit-petit.
The sharpness is clear, with a hint of sweetness.
We are happy to drink this limited edition sake.
Just when you thought it was finally getting colder... we're already halfway through December💦.
Well, I haven't finished drinking yet, so I'm opening more and more ❗️🤭
Tonight 🎑 is Mansaku no Hana🌸.
When you open the bottle, the fruity taste is just right and the first sip is refreshing 👍.
It has a slightly bitter aftertaste, but it has a nice sharpness ✨It could be a good mid-meal drink 😁.
But...I personally don't think I'm going to get into it 😢.
However, I think the depth of sake can be found after the second day ❗️, so I have high expectations for tomorrow.
I think I like it better on the second day 😍. I think I like it better on the second day😍.
However... it's good but not my favorite flavor... 😢.
Hmmm... Sake is very deep💦.
Good evening 😃
It's already the beginning of the year...
Is everyone around you monks running around or are you all running around 💨 lol
Here it is, Aizan Shu!
I bought the label 😊.
Sweet on the palate
Sweet as it is?
It makes you think it's sweet as it is.
a little bitter
and then the sharpness
No, no, no, it's delicious 😋.
I think I can run around as hard as I can 💨😆.
