Back at home, I opened a bottle of fresh sake, still delicious. It's alive, alive, alive. It tastes like it is changing every second.
It was a quick overnight tour of Niigata's sake breweries. The distance traveled was about 730 km.

#Drinking at home
The flavor and acidity are right in the middle, with a slight bitterness that adds thickness, a moderate aroma, and a mellowness that is typical of hiyaoroshi (cold sake).
The aroma is moderate, and it has a mildness that is typical of hiyaoroshi. This is a sake of the "yokozuna" (champion).
Omachi was delicious, but this is truly Tsururei.
It is delicious on its own, and goes well with a wide range of dishes such as obanzai and grilled dishes.
It is a very standard and delicious sake in Uonuma, which I believe is sold only in the Uonuma area. It is available at supermarkets in Uonuma at a reasonable price. It is a great balanced sake with a strong umami and a bit of bitterness. You will never get tired of it no matter how many times you drink it, and because it is a nama-shu, the taste changes and is always fun.
I have reported on this sake many times, but it is a great sake that I rave about again and again. The costa is great too! If you are in Uonuma, you can never have enough of this................................ This place is sake heaven.
Tsururei's Junmai Nama-zake. Sweet aroma like grapes. The attack is strong and sweet. The mouthfeel is also a bit smooth. The rich umami and acidity spread, but it is also rather crisp and disappears easily in the mouth.
