While the excitement of last night's Abe shock had not abated, I couldn't resist opening a bottle of Junmai Ginjo as well 😠(Junmai disappeared yesterday...).
(The Junmai disappeared yesterday...) The rice, alcohol content, and rice polishing ratio have been changed for this one, so expectations are high!
The aroma was a little less after the bottle was opened, probably because it was chilled a little bit like yesterday.
The mouthfeel is very easy to drink, and like the Junmai, it also has a grapefruit flavor 😊.
I still have the impression that the clarity has improved, but perhaps it's the alcohol content, but this one has a little more umami and weight.
It is not so much that they interfere with the food, but rather that they are more in harmony with the food, making it more suited to the dining table.
Both Junmai and Jungin are easy to drink and delicious, so I will have to pay attention to Abe-san...
But I can't find a liquor store that carries it 😩.
In any case, I feel like I drank something terrible during GW 🤣.
Mr. Lemacom came to our house and picked up the alcohol that we left at our friend's house during GW 😙.
But now I had to pick up my friend's alcohol 😆.
When I came back home and counted my own sake, I found that there were almost 40 bottles of 4 gou bottles, which of course overflowed from Lemakom-sama😅.
Well, on the other hand, there's still room in the fridge...
The first bottle to be opened today is Abe-san!
I had wanted to try it for a long time, so I bought it at the time of some purchase, and finally!
First of all, the label is simple and symbolic. First of all, the label is simple and symbolic, very good!
And the taste is also surprising 😲.
I think it might be my favorite Junmai I've ever had...
Even with 80% polished rice, the sweetness and umami flavor are outstanding.
The acidity at the end, while assertive, does not linger.
The low alcohol content of 11% makes everything "just right" overall.
Seriously shocking: ✴️
Good morning, sibylla_tks 😃
Dear Lemacombe 😍I see you had a big GW liquor move 🤗but 40 bottles in stock is awesome😳.
And congratulations on your first Abe ㊗️ 🎉 shocking ‼️ I know 😙.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😊.
Finally got rid of some of my alcohol storage issues 😃.
First Abe... first impact was too awesome 😵.
I'm kind of scared that there will be more awesome ones since there seems to be so many varieties...
Junmai Daiginjo Gold Label is the flagship of the Abe series.
The aroma has the smell of delicious rice flavor.
When tasting it, one gets the impression that it is crisp and clean with a touch of acidity and umami, just like the Abe.
There is no cloying taste at all, and the fruity flavor is truly a daiginjo.
It is delicious.
Thank you very much for your hospitality!
Good evening, GW is almost over 😢 I would like to get excited with this drink: ⤴️
Abe × Taketomi Seishukudo Namaisho Namaizume 2024BY🍶!
I neglected last summer's release since it is a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast 😅 It is a strong sake with no aged aroma at all.
Both the aroma and taste are clean and crisp clear Japanese pear and muscat. It has the typical Abe characteristics of acidity in the attack and sweetness of rice, but overall it has a modern light dry sake quality that is good for a smooth drinking Abe 😋😋😋😋 perfect as a mealtime sake 😊.
Very tasty.
Notes of pear, plum, apricot, whey, and trochee.
Gentle, effervescent mouthfeel.
Moderate sweetness and sharp acidity.
Good flavor and light bitterness.
Great flavors and clear minerality.
Serve with squid, sea bream, scallops, bamboo shoots with Tosa nimame, coleslaw with isetan, and sushi with tuna.
