Niigata Prefecture. Niigata City. Echigo-Tsurukame Corporation.
Echigo Tsurukame wine yeast Junmai Ginjo Aluminum can.
This is a 1 gou can for when you need a little more. I bought this sake at Hanshin Department Store a while ago.
I drink it cold.
The color is slightly yellowish.
The nose has a slightly sweet grape aroma with a hint of red wine.
The palate has a light, low-alcoholic mouthfeel, with a loose sweet and sour taste, followed by a faint astringency on the tongue, reminiscent of red wine tannins. Overall, the wine is light and not heavy, with a slight sweetness on the finish.
It's a bit like drinking a thin wine, but it's definitely easy to drink.
I wonder if the alcohol content differs slightly depending on the tank or brewing time.
I looked online and found that the March release was labeled at 9% alcohol by volume.
Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic)
Rice polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 10
My wife made vinegared cucumbers. However, it was a cucumber with a square piece of crab meat, which was not a crab at all.
It was delicious, but I was a little disappointed that it was "almost a fake crab.
Today's sake.
It is labeled "Slightly Active Nigori. It is a subtle expression, but this means it is an active nigori.
The taste is light to say the least, and frankly speaking, it has no depth. It tastes good enough, but I am not impressed.
Degree of buying again 5/10
Foam Taste
No niggles at first, a refreshing sweetness.
The taste becomes more complex when the casks are mixed.
even more delicious!
Umeda Hankyu Event
Soft aroma of rice, but the taste is only slightly umami, which is fine, and the sharpness of the sake is such that you feel you are not drinking anything.
Purchased at Sekomah and immediately at room temperature.
Sweet, spicy, acidic
It tastes good.
What's that? It was brewed in Niigata City.
Polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 15
At the first liquor store I entered in Matsudo
I got my first sake
I had Yuki no Mayuya, Tsuchida, and Ryu-ryoku.
I went home with new sake to enjoy as if I was exploring a new place.
The lid flew off when I opened the seal 🫢.
Slightly effervescent low-alcohol sake
Tropical fruitiness.
It's got a natural sweetness to it.
Maybe mango 🥭.
I'm pretty sure I've seen comments like that in the store.
It's like champagne.
A new exploration was a great success!
It's honestly delicious 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! We like the big liquor stores in Tokyo, but we also want to support local stores ❣️ We took the bus home with our sake 😆.
My car will be here shortly and I want to visit the liquor stores for good sake!
My wife gave me this bottle for Father's Day.
The aroma is fresh, muscat-like ginjo aroma.
In the mouth, sweetness and acidity spread softly from the gentle mouthfeel. In the mid-palate, a slight spiciness emerges, and finally it disappears without a trace.
There is no gassiness, and overall, this wine is very fruity and easy to drink.
It was like a cool white wine, a new aspect of sake.
The bottle mouth is so tight (see photo) that I was wary of how much it would spill. I was a bit wary, but I was able to open the bottle without any problems.
It is sweet, sour, carbonated, citrusy, and with a low Alc of 10%, perfect for this season. Tonight we had a rich meat dish, so the wash effect made the drink and the meal go down well.
Tainai Kogen Beer, which we ordered from Murakami, is going out of business this month, so we were able to experience the gentle flavor of Niigata Koshihikari just in time.
Hi screaming butterfly, ☀️
I've had this before and it's citrus dry, sizzling and delicious 😆 10 degrees is almost beer, so it's great guilt free 🥳(personal opinion 🤣).
