A trip around Shiga. During transfer time at Yamashina Station, I came across Tamaei from Takeuchi Sake Brewery in Ishibe. The sake, which will be brewed in 2019 and shipped in November 2023, has a deep richness and a spiciness that lingers in the mouth, making it a perfect match for Kyoto-flavored oden. Maybe this cold weather is almost over. Spring is near.
Aged modern, light, dry, warmed sake 😋.
Special A district Yamadanishiki Jun Dai 6 year aged for 3100 yen before tax👍.
I bought this with the Shinkame Gamera and thought, "I could go for aged sake, too. I bought it.
It is a light and dry sake with a little acidity and a ginjo aroma when cold or chilled, but the ripe and matured taste and aroma are not so good.
However, when warmed up, it has a delicious flavor! When heated up, the umami and acidity spread out and the aroma increased.
It is rare for the acidity to increase when heated, and the balance between the umami and acidity is not too much. The aroma is a mixture of spiciness, maturity, and ginjo aroma. 😋😋😋😋☺️
This is Jun Dai's matured heated sake!
The sake cup goes down and doesn't stop.
The aroma is concentrated and mellow, reminiscent of a golden color.
The mouthfeel is surprisingly light and watery.
However, it is rich in flavor.
Aromatic and soft aroma with a graininess spreads in the mouth,
Afterwards, you will feel a moderately rich, deep taste.
It has a light and delicious taste.
It is also good with kabocha kinpira, of course, and sukonoko-wasabi.
It is made from Shiga Prefecture's Ginbuki, which inherits the DNA of Tamakae and Yamadanishiki. It is gorgeous and mellow, with a mild sweetness and a clean finish.
The brewery has won consecutive gold medals at the National New Sake Competition.

It doesn't have the freshness of an unfiltered, unfiltered sake, but it has a strong rice flavor, or at least a strong flavor that goes well with anything 🍶.
It's delicious 😋.
I like this one: ❤️
I think it's safe to say that it brings out the full potential of Ginfukiyuki 🫢.
