Evening drink at home.
I opened a bottle of Tokyo souvenir from my sister who had given it to me before.

It was made in December 2022 and has a slightly yellowish color, perhaps due to its advanced maturation.

First, we tried it cold. Slightly amazake-like aroma.
It has a slight amazake-like aroma. The acidity is a little stronger than the sweetness, umami, and acidity.
It is not as modern as Yamori, but it is delicious in its own way,

When heated, the sweetness fades and a cedar-like aroma comes out on the nose.
A unique flavor with a cedar-like aroma. Yose
It was delicious with yose nabe (hot pot), sashimi of chicken and fish, sliced tuna, etc.

Dry.
Excellent with food.
Excellent pairing not only with the ajillo in the photo, but also with other dishes with strong flavors, such as salted fish, which was ordered separately.
Tokyo's delicious sake, Toshimaya Sake Brewery in Higashimurayama! This is a new sake nigori from Kinshin that is almost never on the market. It is extremely fresh✨The taste is also fresh and sharp. It's also nice that it's light gassy and hard to agitate the lees. It's also good that it's light gassy and hard to agitate the lees. It's perfect for those who like light nigori. I wanted to know what it tasted like a few days later...it must have tasted even better.
Fresh, rich flavors. Rice sweetness. The aruten gives it a longer touch. Bit high ABV to feel comfortable drinking a lot of. Taste as good if not even better after 2 weeks of opening. 4.25/5
Hello, Yochi!
And congratulations on your 500 check-ins 🎉.
You are drinking so much ⤴️⤴️
I enjoy just looking at all the sake that I have never drunk before.
Keep up the good drinking 😊.
ma-ki - hello.
Thank you very much 🙇.
I've been drinking a little bit of everything!
There are so many kinds of sake!
I wonder if I can find a sake I don't know yet 🤤.
Have a good sake life 🍀!
This will be a comment from an amateur sake lover.
I had a chance to visit Higashimurayama City the other day and bought this evening's sake at this sake brewery.
It is a very heavy sake, yokozuna class, with a robust flavor. It has a solid core of roughness. I am grateful to be able to drink good sake 🍶 tonight. Thank you very much 😊Thank you for the treat.
Kinshin is the original brand name of the Toshimaya Brewery, which brewed Yamori. It is made from 100% Hachitan-Nishiki and has the same specifications as Yamori. It has an elegant aroma and a deep, rich flavor that makes you groan with delight.
It makes you realize that there is good sake in Tokyo.
