3 fresh bottles for comparison
I went to yuito in Asakusa.
The bright and stylish atmosphere made me want to go there on a special occasion.
Abeto yuito is gentle on the palate and has a pleasant balance of acidity and sweetness. When paired with appetizers or light snacks, it is a bottle that will naturally make you drink more.
Hakusen is juicy and gorgeous from the first sip. The satisfaction was much greater when paired with fried or grilled fish or other dishes with a bit of oil and flavor.
Ryuki has a very clean aftertaste and is an excellent match for sashimi and simple dishes with a salty flavor. When drunk at the end, it gives the impression that it rounds out the entire meal.
The same "fresh" type of wine,
Each wine has its own distinct personality: gentle, gorgeous, and light.
By comparing the two, we were able to understand the differences in sake brewing styles at each brewery.
For me, the Abeto Yuto was quite easy to drink, with a good balance of fruity, rice sweetness and acidity, and I liked its slightly effervescent mouthfeel.
I went on vacation early this year so I cleaned 🧹🪣 my range hood and other parts of my home with baking soda and did a lot of gunning ✨.
So, here are my notes for this year 🎶.
Part 1
What I drank in November.
Maybe the second half😅.
Yopa Memo_φ(___)
Slightly, slightly cloudy.
Basically, it's melon, but it's not in the foreground.
Not much sweetness, quite clean and crisp.
But it's not spicy.
Last time I drank it was a year ago.
I think the fact that I buy it whenever it's released is proof that I'm familiar with how good it tastes 😄.
It was delicious 😋😋😋.
Thanks for the treat🎶
Mutsu Hachisen Nouveau Ooragarami
I compared 3 kinds of sake with Mutsu Hachisen Nouveau Sumi-shu and Mutsu Otokoyama, and this one was the most delicious.
The aroma on the nose is sweet with a hint of melon and banana.
In the mouth, it is juicy and mildly sweet with a slight acidity.
It was delicious, but I used to think of Hakusen as having a 🍎 aroma, but since last year they have changed to a 🍈🍌 type yeast, and as a lover of 🍎 I am feeling a little sad about that.
Which one did you enjoy the most?
Reflection Memo
When I contracted the epidemic and asked my wife to go to Aomori instead, she bought it for me.
There was a note that said it was also fruity.
Recommended purchase at Yodogawa Sake Shop. Aromatic and super-hot! But maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe I felt it was too sweet. But it's so nice, I don't have to think about tomorrow! After all, it is the year-end vacation! Mr. Yodogawa, the fifth generation of the Yodogawa Sake Shop, I am sorry for asking you every day, "What is the best sake? Sorry for the "what's the best sake" questions every day. Thank you for always being with me 🙏 Please keep up the good work 🙏.
Mutsu Hachisen! It was supposed to be deliciously sweet, but the label says it is super spicy.
When I poured it into a glass and drank it, I felt more sharpness than sweetness. As one would expect from a sake labeled "super-harsh.
