Sake selected by sneaking into a cheap self-serve all-you-can-drink restaurant.
Drink at room temperature.
It tastes like classic sake.
The acidity is strong and clear. It tastes like yogurt.
It has a strong rice flavor and is sweet.
It is rich and delicious.
All-you-can-drink 450 yen/30 minutes
The entrée is a little expensive for a low price, but it comes out well.
The glasses are clean. The draft beer is consistently good.
I would like to go back and try the inexpensive sake series next time.
Ueno Kaisho No. 1
It is a reasonably priced fine sake with a subtly fruity, clean and carefully crafted ginjo-shu feel in its own way.
Lunch at Omiya (=lunchtime sake)
I thought about going to Izumiya, a long-established restaurant with a Showa-era atmosphere, but I decided to try something new today. I thought about going to Izumiya, a long-established izumiya with a Showa-style atmosphere, but I decided to try something new today.
First, a draft beer (Kirin Ichiban Shibori).
We had chilled tofu and five omakase skewers to go with our snacks.
There is no special sake on tap, but...,
Sashi-Ogi Koyama Honke's Kinmon Sekai Taka Ginjo 50, which is widely distributed in supermarkets and convenience stores in Saitama City.
It is also a limited edition sake for Saitama Prefecture, and I personally posted it for the upcoming Saitama Prefecture Sake 200 check-in.
Sake familiar to supermarkets and convenience stores in Saitama City.
It has a slightly amber color and a slight sweetness. It is smooth, refreshing, and easy to drink.
The price is reasonable for a junmai ginjo, so it is perfect for casual, everyday drinking.
When drunk hiya, it has a traditional light dry taste with a dry yet umami aftertaste.
When hot, it has a mild, mellow, dry taste.
I prefer it hot. It's a traditional sake and a good sake for any snacks.
It is a junmai ginjo and has an elegant taste for a cup of sake.
These characters are called "Kobaton" and "Saitamatchi", which are local mascots of Saitama Prefecture!
There are Yurukyara all over Japan, but they seem to be a uniquely Japanese culture.
