This is Toriyoemon Special Junmai Sake "Active Nigori". It is a delicious sake with a crisp, dry, refreshing taste from the gasiness. It is available at Sake Ogawa.
Purchased at a liquor store
I intend to drink more summer sake this year than last year
Cold sake
It has a lively attack and acidity that is typical of nama sake.
Slightly voluptuous, but the aftertaste is quite sharp.
Went well with sashimi of tuna.
Because of its strong acidity, it would go well with summer dishes with stamina such as vegetable curry or stir-fried pork and eggplant.
The aroma of old sake! Taste of old wine! It tastes like old sake, but it's easy to drink. Even my husband, who is not fond of strong sake, said it was just about acceptable 😆.
It seems to go well with strong flavored snacks.

Next up is this one.
The sweetness is momentary... the piquancy similar to sibilance.
It's a delicious sake that also feels spicy 😁.

A celebration party for the eldest son and his wife and two grandchildren at Shidodaira Onsen, Hanamaki.
The second sake of the sake comparison was a Junmai sake from local Hanamaki sake brewer Yoemon.
I wondered what an unfiltered, fire-aged sake was. I wondered and took a sip.
It had a slight yellow tinge to it, so the attack was a bit strong, just as it looked.
I thought Toru Yoemon was a sake with an interesting acidity, but it was surprisingly rich and sweet, like an old sake.
It seemed to go well with the strong flavored Viking dishes.
Originally, it was bottled by hand, which may have given it a unique sourness in the process. This is called "Toru Yoemon.
Because of its sourness, it did not budge in Iwate Prefecture, its hometown, but outside of the prefecture, this sourness was appreciated and began to sell, and was reevaluated by Iwate Prefecture drinkers as a kind of reimportation.
The brand I bought at Gin-no-Sake Kibune had a beautiful taste.
If you see it at a liquor store, please buy it. (^^)/
