HYOGO SAKE EXPO2023 (2)
Akashi sea bream, which is mainly exported and not often seen in Hyogo Prefecture.
We tasted the following
Special Honjozo
Special honjozo sake
Special Junmai
Daiginjo-genshu
Junmai Daiginjo-genshu
Ginjo-yuzu sake
Ginjo-Umeshu Shiraume
I tried to drink as I was told, starting from the end.
The Special Honjozo to Special Junmai are classic and spicy.
If I had to buy it for the price, I would probably go for the special honjozo sake. I think so, but...
Daiginjo-genshu and junmai-daiginjo-genshu are beautiful and gorgeous.
Well, I think that the raw sake I bought at a brewery on the Okura Coast before was also a classic type of sake.
Personally, I enjoyed the plum wine the most 😅.
According to the brewer, people in Wakayama drank it and praised it highly.
It's very sweet, rich and tasty.
Extremely tart with a strong Yuzu flavour. Serve chilled in small measures, this Akashidai Ginjo is very refreshing. I’ve tasted it mixed with tonic in some UK bars; though this diluted a memorable sake to its detriment.
Milky in the glass and the bottle. Clear sediment lines visible. Not a subtle drink because of the strong Yuzu flavour.
Made by preserving plums in the finest sake for 18 months or more. Sweet, yet balanced - served best chilled as a digestive. If you’re tired of port wine- try this Umeshu.
At Kiraku in Uonodana, Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture.
The aroma and sweetness are moderate. The flavor of the rice stands out. Sake that goes well with the excellent cuisine of the always grumpy owner. I was able to get drunk in a good mood.
