My oldest son is leaving for the US in April: 🇺🇸
The whole family gathered for a send-off party and my celebration a little early 🚙.
As a celebration, we each received a drink of our choice from the inn.
Sake from Narita Meizo, the only sake brewery on the Omotesando sidewalk of Mt.
It was my first time to drink this brand.
It is fragrant and a little sweet.
It has a bitterness and a sharp taste at the end.
We were served a variety of dishes, which we enjoyed little by little in our sake cups 😋.
Knowledge
Junmai Daiginjo-shu is packed in a lapis lazuli-colored bottle.
It is very popular among women because of the color of the bottle, and it comes in a navy blue covered box, making it a very popular gift.
It is characterized by its floral aroma and full-bodied flavor, which is unique to Junmai Daiginjo-shu.
The hi-ire process, which is usually done twice, is done only once during bottling to preserve the delicate aroma.
Rice: Yamadanishiki and Omachi
Alcohol content 15%.
Sake meter degree +2.3
Ingredients: Rice, rice malt
I was wary that the bottle would be very foamy since there was about 3 or 4 cm of cakes in the bottle, but it was opened with no problem at all. I was a bit wary when I opened the bottle, but I was able to open it without any problems at all. There was no sense of fizziness when I drank it.
It was dry and light, without much alcohol, and I accidentally and carelessly finished a bottle.
This is the same as last year's, which we received at the end of the year at the company. This year's package is a bright blue bottle, which looks super nice (lol). As usual, it is high in alcohol content, so you get drunk somewhat earlier. We enjoyed the same sophistication and panache this year as always! Thank you ☺️
Procured at a sake brewery in the lap of Mount Narita. The name and the label are overflowing with gratitude. It is great to be able to ward off bad luck by drinking sake. The taste is quite sweet, but it has a nice sharpness, so it can be used against strong foods. Bolognese, for example. It is too sweet for my taste, so I would give it a **.
It is a Setsubun pressed sake and the quantity is limited. Even in front of the store, it was heavily advertised as "very popular among women!" It seems to be a sake that is "popular among women.
It is a sake that is popular among women, and even though it does not have a strong aroma, it tastes very sweet. But it also has a sharpness, so it is not too sweet and does not linger in the mouth.
So I have the impression that it can be served with Western food as a substitute for chu-hai (Japanese rice wine). Even when drunk with Bolognese spaghetti, it did not diminish the deliciousness of the dish.
However, it is the type of alcohol that can be drunk by itself because it has a sweetened taste to attract women, so I don't think it complements rice as much as it complements rice.
Happy New Year's Day!
My eldest son and daughter arrived for New Year's Day.
Along with Osechi, we had a bottle of freshly brewed sake, a souvenir from Chiba.
The name sounds like it might be good for you.
It's a little fermented, carbonated, refreshing, and not too sweet.
I hope this year will be a good year for many people.
A glass at the brewery's direct sales store/corner bar near Shinshoji Temple.
It has a fruity aroma and is light and easy to drink at first.
On the other hand, it has a strong dry taste at the end.
The dryness at the end was a bit strong for me.

It is neither sweet nor spicy.
I think I sense bitterness in the aftertaste.
I ate rice in the evening, so I'm using ripe persimmons as a side dish, but it goes surprisingly well with it.
