◉Bakuren
📍Yamagata Kamenoi Sake Brewery
Christmas label! 🎅🏻🎀
Super dry. It's gooey if you drink it without any food, but it doesn't interfere with seafood at all.
I love it so much I don't know how many bottles I've opened at home. LOL.
Santa print is too cute.
The aroma is sweet and gorgeous.
On the palate, one senses the sweetness and slight acidity characteristic of ginjo-shu. Immediately, the pungent taste of the alcohol content of +20 comes into play. The pungency lingers in the aftertaste, and the sweetness does not linger. This is a characteristic taste.
Also known as "Aka-bakuren" (red wine).
Alcohol 16-17%.
Sake meter degree +20
Acidity 1.0
Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Clear and dry
Slight aroma, sharp attack. The taste is clear and dry. It goes in smoothly and has a good sharpness.
Accompanied by cream cheese with buckwheat paste. It enhances the richness of cream cheese 🤣.
Yamagata Sake
Bakuren Super Dry Ginjo
This sake is produced by Kamenoi Shuzo, which brews Kudoki-Ue. Kudoki-Ue is a sweet-tasting sake made with Ogawa yeast, and Bakuren is a very dry sake with a Sake - +20 degrees. I usually drink only sweet sake, but I happened to find this one and bought it for the regular price of 2,420 yen.
The aroma is gorgeous, as is typical of Ogawa yeast. In the mouth, the crisp umami of rice disappears without any bitterness or other unpleasant taste. It is a dry or rather refreshing sake. Speaking of dry sake made with Ogawa yeast, there is Kiri-Tsukuba dry sake, but I would like to compare them next time.
Degree of liking 9/10
Good morning, nenemu 😃
I'm surprised I've never had Bakuren 🤔It looks delicious and cosy! I have the impression that dry sake is cheap 😊The Kiri-Tsukuba Dai-harakuchi was also very tasty 😋.
