Iwate's Local Sake Part II
Good balance of sweetness and bitterness.
This is good as a food sake, and also good as a toi (drink) for the sake of the "noobe".

Kiku no Tsukasa Innocent
This is my first sake, but I bought it without a second thought because of the design of the bottle, which gives the sake brewery a sense of challenge.
I buy bottle designs like this 🥴.
The aroma in the glass is subdued.
The aroma in the glass is restrained, and when you sip it, you can feel the clear, fresh sake-like flavor without any peculiarities.
The rice used for the sake is not stated, but it seems to be Gohyakumangoku. Sorry if I'm wrong 🙇.
As the label says, it is a very well-balanced sake, and I felt it complemented the food.
The seventh drink at the Keihan Moriguchi Sake Festival was also from a new brewery, Kiku no Tsukasa Sake Brewery's Kiku no Tsukasa!
This time it was Innocent50!
Let's start with the sake!
First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, it has a nice umami and sweetness.
It has a beautiful mouthfeel, with a slight richness and alcohol taste, so it is very drinkable and delicious!
It is also easy to drink because of its clean and refreshing aftertaste.
3.5 The first sip is so stimulating that you would think it was fizzy. But as you continue drinking it, it comes together well. It was quite a beautiful and tasty sake.
Good aroma. Fresh sweetness and umami spread in the mouth. The acidity is also well balanced. Ginotome" from Iwate Prefecture is used. It has a fruity taste and is delicious.
Recently, the space in the refrigerator in my office has become quite empty.
I've been so busy lately that I haven't done any popping 😅.

Is the temperature too low? Not much scent.
Nothing fancy, of course.
When the temperature was raised just a little bit, the aroma came out softly.
Between citrus and melon
I can't help but think of it as 🍊mikan🍊 or 🍊watermelon🍉? I can't think of a clear definition of "this one". I can't think of anything like that.
but as a food wine, it's good👍.
It was delicious 😋😋😋😋.
Thanks for the food 🎶.
