寿梨庵
Second time at a counter kappo-like restaurant in Nagaoka.
We were suggested that there was a rare sake
Minokawa Sake Brewery (🍶), which used to be located in Nagaoka but regrettably went out of business in 2014.
The sake was bottled there at the time for exhibition at a sake competition and consigned to the Naeba Sake Brewery in the forest where it was brewed ❔.
This time it was released in full ✨.
H22BY, 13 years old 😲.
80/100❕
Despite the long aging, it is fresh without feeling it ❕ It has a noble ginjo aroma that is one rank above the others and has the atmosphere of a high quality white sake 💫.
The body is dignified and steel-like, with a deep, core-like structure.
It also has a long, crisp, lingering finish 😋.
The aged Yamama sake that impressed me before was also Omachi.
I wonder if omachi is suitable for long aging 🤔.
On the back label, there is a comment from the former president, Mr. Matsumoto.
There must not have been many breweries in Niigata that brewed Omachi rice at that time, so he must have had some feelings for it 😌.
And the sake has gone through a dramatic history.
(Ki) and it seems there will be more releases in the future😊.
