Suminoe is my favorite brewery.
As the name "SoLiD" suggests, the sharpness and hardness derived from complete fermentation at low temperatures come to the fore. It is not pushed by sweetness, but rather outlined by acidity and bitterness.
It is a "quiet dry and modern" wine that is typical of Suminoe.
Pairing:
White fish sashimi, sea bream, flatfish, grilled fish with only salt, oysters (steamed or grilled rather than raw), Japanese cuisine with a sense of broth.
Repeat Score: 2.0
After all... things from the sea and sake from the sea go well together!
Fresh oysters and sea squirt with no smell, and a refreshing sake that has no peculiarities.
This sake is dry and really refreshing, with a hint of umami on the palate that quickly fades away.
Delicious 😋😋😋.
Drinking at home. First time to watch out for Suminoe.
I didn't know there was a sake shop in the neighborhood that sold so much sake. I didn't know that.
So I bought this first Suminoe at my first sake store.
It is not fruity, but has some gas and dryness. It is easy to drink.
label buying
little smell, sweet, grapey, spicy
what the heck is this?
First time drinking it. I wonder if it's close to white wine, I've hardly ever had it.
Unusual flavorful liquor.
