I stopped by Kawagoe over the weekend and bought some, shinshu shiboritate.
It is a new sake with a small number of sake. We are lucky.
It tastes fresh, freshly pressed. It tastes fresh and freshly pressed.
You can gobble it up by itself.
Alcohol content 16
Polishing ratio 50%.
This is the second of two bottles I recently purchased for Koedo in Kawagoe.
Like the earlier Orikarami, it is a robust umakuchi type. I wonder if this is a characteristic of the sake rice (sake musashi) 🤔.
It might be good warmed up or heated (I'm not a big fan of warm sake, so I choose cold sake only 😅).
Is it the same sake as the sake made from 100% sake brewery, Toki cup?
It is a light, easy-drinking sake with a very tasty aftertaste, and it goes down very well. It is a good sake to drink with food. The aroma is slightly floral.
The liquid is almost colorless and has many short legs.
#Sake rice: sake musashi
Kagamiyama Ooragarami, one of two bottles we purchased on a recent visit to Koedo, Kawagoe, Saitama Prefecture.
It is fruity but also has a firm umami flavor. Maybe it is because of the sake's tailing?
Accompanying it was Miso Sansho Cream Cheese purchased at Cardi's. I guess it's because they are both fermented foods, but they go well together. ☺️
Today is my wife's family's annual New Year's visit to the Naritasan Betsuin temple in Kawagoe.

I walked with my father-in-law through the streets of warehouses to the Matsumoto Soy Sauce store and bought some.
It comes in softly and has a mellow, "delicious" taste, but not too sweet.
It is glossy, yet calm.
Every time I drink it, I end up drinking a lot of sake and end up drinking a four-gouple bottle, which I think means it is delicious👍.
Every time, I finish it on the first day, so maybe the taste will open up on the second day or later 😅.
It is cold, so it is served warm.
It has a slight yellowish color.
Pleasant acidity. The spiciness jumps in. It is soft.
What is the flavor❓The sourness is at the back of the flavor, and the spiciness and rice seem to be mixed in the aroma.
The umami gently spreads in the mouth along with the sourness.
The mellow rice flavor remains on the upper jaw, and the aroma escapes into the nose.
When heated hot, the sweetness also spreads in the mouth, becoming sweet and sour and bitter.
It is very flavorful. You won't be able to stop for a moment 😎.

The clear mouthfeel with a hint of fruitiness and sweetness. A slight sweetness. A lingering bitterness.
