#Don't stop sake from Noto! This is an original recipe reproduction sake from Shirakiku in Okunoto from #Noto.
It is an unfiltered, fire-aged Junmai Daiginjo brewed with Kanazawa yeast using Yamadanishiki that survived the Shirafuji Sake Brewery's damage, and soft water with minerals removed from the Kaze no Mori brewing water.
The appearance is pale green-yellow crystal.
Gas bubbles are faint.
The aroma is gentle, but has aromas of blue melon flesh and banana before it is fully ripe.
There is also a calm laurel and cream-like aroma, and as the temperature rises, a rice cake-like rice aroma also emerges.
The texture is smooth and the gassy stimulation is delicate.
The sweetness is very gentle, transparent and refreshing.
The acidity also spreads gently and finely.
The umami of the rice expands richly with a mature bitter taste, and disappears while leaving a firm sake-like aftertaste.
It has good sharpness and a long aftertaste.
As is typical of Shirakiku from Okunoto, the taste is gentle but has flavor, and the gasiness and refreshing sweetness of the first touch are the essence of Kaze no Mori.
Warmed to lukewarm 🍶.
The aroma adds a fluffy rice aroma like freshly cooked rice.
It is smooth, and the sweetness is darker and more pronounced.
The soft umami and acidity spread softly, and the acidic stimulation is pleasantly sharp.
It is also delicious warmed!
Hi Aladdin 🐦.
It looks totally different between the collaboration and the reproduction 😳I wonder if the difference is because I've had both 😊and I want to drink them both 😊and I want to drink them: ❣️
Hello Aladdin, ☀☀☀☀☀.
I'm really worried about the situation in Noto, which recently suffered another torrential rain disaster💦.
I take my hat off to the sake brewery for their commitment and spirit of challenge in trying to keep the water quality as close to the original as possible ✨.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
It was easy to see the commonalities and the totally different areas when I compared them! They were quite different😄.
I finished this one, but I will try another bottle of Okunoto Shirakiku before I forget this feeling 🍶.
Good evening, Mr. Jaive 😃.
I am heartbroken by the torrential rain disaster in Noto, it looks terrible.
Personally, I would have liked to drink the ultra-hard water version of Okunotono Shirakiku, and someday I would like to drink the genuine original Okunotono Shirakiku Jun Daigin 🍶.
Thank you Aladdin for the Noto sake. The very soft water brewing is Noto sake, and I will support this project for a long time so that it will not be forgotten.
Good evening, WOM 😃.
Water is important because 80% of sake is water and it has a big influence on the fermentation process.
I can't feel like drinking only Noto sake, but I also want to remember to drink it for a long time and support it 🍶.
Don't stop drinking #Noto's sake! A sake comparison between Shirakiku and Kaze no Mori from Okunoto, from #Noto.
This is a collaboration brew.
It is a Junmai Daiginjo of unfiltered unpasteurized sake brewed with the Kanazawa yeast used by the Shirafuji brewery, using Yamadanishiki brought from the Shirafuji brewery and the ultra-hard brewing water from Kaze no Mori.
The appearance is pale silver-green crystal.
Gas bubbles float sparsely in the glass and disappear.
The aroma is fresh and gorgeous.
Aromas of pears, white peaches, bananas, and melons with a touch of schwirky acidity, honeysuckle flowers, green chervil, and the sweet nuance of apricot bean curd.
There is also a beautiful rice aroma like fresh white dumplings and a minerality typical of Kaze no Mori.
Slightly viscous and mellow texture, with a lively gas stimulation 🫧.
While the fruit-like sweetness is firm, the acidity including fine acid stimulation spreads softly and roundly.
From the mid-palate, the umami including a beautiful bitterness comes out and flows down the back of the throat, leaving a slight stimulation and ending with a sharp finish.
The finish is sharp and the lingering aftertaste is rather long.
Bitter and astringent taste tightens on the tongue.
The impression is softer than the daily Kaze no Mori, with a fuller and more complex umami.
The banana melon feeling typical of Kanazawa yeast and the swelling of umami give the impression of the essence of Shirakiku from Okunoto.
Hi Aladdin, hello here too!
I see this one uses the same brewing water from the Aburacho Sake Brewery😁.
I certainly feel like this one really needs a drinking comparison between the two ✨.
Hi Jive, good evening 😃.
I thought afterwards that it would have been nice to compare the sake rice with your usual Kaze no Mori, since you don't usually use Yamadanishiki (which for some reason is more common these days with exhibited sake and WEEKS limited edition sake) and Kanazawa yeast is also different from No. 7 😌.
We received the sake just before the earthquake 🍶.
It has a sweet taste and a strong apple-like aroma 😋.
Most of them are kept refrigerated, but this one was kept at room temperature and drank straight ✨.
Anyway, I'll drink it and see what I can do with it: ‼️
This sake is a collaboration between the Shirafuji Sake Brewery in Wajima and the Aburacho Sake Brewery in Kaze no Mori.
Following the warning, we opened the bottle with a sense of urgency.
The cork pops and the bottle is in your hand.
When we poured it into the glass, it was full of gas, with bubbles on the inside of the glass.
The label on the back says it is made with aromatic Kanazawa yeast.
When you take a sip, the gaseous sensation comes on quickly, but the flavor of the rice and the gorgeous ginjo aroma also come on in a big burst.
Although it is a gaseous sake, it is not only fresh, but also has a good body when it rolls on the tongue. The ultra-hard brewing water and unfiltered, unadulterated water are the best ingredients to make this sake.
This is delicious. It is good to enjoy the taste of the sake on its own with chikuwa-ya (chikuwa and chilled tofu) as a side dish so that it does not interfere with the sake.
I wonder if Mr. Shirafuji will be okay if the river floods in Wajima City due to the occurrence of a linear precipitation zone. It's hard to watch the TV images.
Don't stop Noto! Kaze no Mori collaboration.
Yamadanishiki that escaped the disaster, brewed with Kanazawa yeast and ultra-hard water in Gosho.
They were selling it in bulk, so they stocked up.
The aroma on the nose is sweet, with a hint of white chrysanthemum from Okunoto.
When you put it in your mouth, it has a gentle sweetness similar to that of Okunoto's white chrysanthemum.
The final taste is a slight bitterness that is typical of Kaze no Mori and finishes off the palate.
It was a strange collaboration of flavors and aromas, but it was delicious 🍶✨.
Good evening, Matsuchiyo-san. I'm still curious about the collaboration between Okunoto's Shirakiku and Kaze no Mori 😊I'd love to drink this collaboration with its mysterious taste and aroma💕.
Good morning Peco 🌞.
I got hooked on Shirakiku after drinking the Yukawa version this year😊.
I bought a bottle of last year's fire-aged junmai, a bottle of Rescue jungin and a bottle of the recently released blue label honjozo at home 😘.
Collaboration with Aburacho Shuzo and Shirafuji Shuzo. Original recipe reproduction. Compared to the paired collaboration brews, it has a slightly bitter taste that is not overpowered by the snacks.
Long time no post. To my favorite Shirakiku.
I can't believe it's a collaboration of my favorite wind forest.
I can't get my work done just by imagining it lol
Sake made with Kanazawa yeast by Aburinaga Sake Brewery.
This sake is made with Kanazawa yeast by Aburanaga Sake Brewery.
What can I say? The moment you put it in your mouth, you can't help but feel
The feeling of grapes in your mouth. !!!!!
A little bit of a sourness.
The bitterness that comes afterwards!
It's the best 🤩.
This is a taste that is not in the image of both breweries.
This is collaboration! The pleasure of tasting Shirakiku-san's sake and the pleasure of tasting the juiciness of the sake!
The joys of nama-shu!
I've been drinking a little sake here and there
I've been drinking a bit of sake, but never got around to posting about it....
When I opened the app after a long time
I was surprised to see that it has been upgraded so much!
I was so surprised.
Uta, it's been a while 😊.
I was so worried about this sake in front of the fridge at the store (over my budget) that I gave up and went home. It looks so delicious 😻I still want to drink it!
Hey Ponchan, long time no see 🙇.
It's a bit pricey 😅
I was shaking my hands until I got to the cash register lol
Oh, I'm going to Zenkoji next week,
I know you drink a lot of Nagano sake.
Do you have any recommendations around the station?
I haven't been to Nagano station for a long time💦🙏.
I heard there is a store at the station called "Shinshu Kuraudo" where you can buy and drink standing. Also, as I'm sure you know, Nishinomon. The brewery will tell you to stop by when you come to Zenkoji Temple 😊.
Nishinomon! I didn't know that! LOL!
It helped that they mentioned parking on their website! I will go there!
The "Shinshu Kuraudo" is a must 🫡.
Thanks!
2024-10 Continuation of earthquake relief efforts
This is the brand I wanted to drink the most from Okunoto. It's a classic first day light and dry, it really goes in easily. Summer, but also good warmed.
First day ★★★★☆
3rd day ★★★★☆
Day 7: ★★★★☆
Overall 3.9
Don't stop Noto's sake.
This sake is brewed by Shirakiku at Yoshida Sake Brewery only in its original form.
For me, I prefer the previous collaboration because it is easier to drink.
Anyway, good luck with Noto sake.
Noto Sake Crowdfunding
Purchased at. It is a collaboration of Shirafuji Sake Brewery in Ishikawa and Yoshida Sake Brewery in Fukui.
It is a good sake with a lot of flavor!
I skipped registration too much.
Sake from a while ago.
Don't stop drinking Noto sake - a collaboration sake from ‼️. I drank both, but I'll give a review of Eiheiji Hakuryu.
It has a very nice citrusy aroma and a firm sweet flavor.
Well balanced sake.
We must support it well. ‼️
