splendid alfonsino (Beryx splendens)
Slightly habitual aroma. Something drooling in the mouth, whether it is a slight sweetness and sourness or umami. Finally, I felt a sensation like that of candy. It was delicious. It would probably taste good heated up.
I drank it at a soba restaurant in Otsu station, but the relationship between the name of the restaurant and the sake is unknown.
We are now traveling around Lake Biwa in safety and health. Day 2 Otsu via Kinomoto, Takashima, Konan, Koga, and Shigaraki. Quite tired.
We crossed the Lake Biwa Bridge, so we failed to complete the round-the-lake trip.
When I went to Okamura Honke at the beginning of the year to buy freshly squeezed sake, I also found nigori and bought it!
I was surprised at how sweet it was.
It was delicious!
But I think I prefer the dry one 🍶.
This year, I went to purchase sake on the 1st, and although I had a hard time deciding between Fujii Honke and Okamura Honke, I went to Okamura Honke!
I bought a new sake Shiboritate of my favorite Kinkame.
It is dark!
Yum!
I'll take it slowly.
The third and last cup.
Although it is low milled at 80%, this cup has a banana-like sweetness and finishes with an astringent aftertaste.
All three cups were delicious in their own way!
With my wife at the desk on the balcony.
The brand name is from a sake brewery near my parents' house.
I don't have a picture of it, but the accompaniment was funazushi, a specialty of Shiga Prefecture. The breeze was pleasant and we were in a drunken mood.
If it gets a little colder, we'll have it hot. ☺️
Comparison of different polished rice
You can only do this at the store. You can enjoy the difference between the explanation and the way your tongue feels.
I overwhelmingly like brown rice and 70!
Memorandum
At an antenna store called "Here Shiga" on a trip to Tokyo.
A set of three different kinds of sake.
The richness of the aftertaste was the most impressive.
Choujukinkame Ao90 Hi-ire
Polishing ratio 90(!) Brightly illuminated, with a good balance of sweetness and acidity. Like mirin or shaoxing sake. #Home #Drinking #Dinner
