The first Suminoe! Although it claims to be classical...it feels very modern because it is jun-daigin...🍶 The delicious taste of Yamadanishiki rice, the moderate bitterness in the aftertaste...it also has a strong presence! Today, I had my favorite Mexicali fish as fritters! It is also good as a food sake... I recommend this sake for Japanese food in general... ♪
The aroma is not very strong.
When you drink it, it is just as the title suggests,
Sourness and spiciness, hard and sharp mouthfeel.
It has a clear flavor, as if the sweetness has been cut away.
It has a crisp, dry finish.
Kire-Yami.
Ate-Yami.
Degree of liking ☆3/5
SUMINOE Solid
Sharp and dry, the label is nice and tasteful as the name suggests.
I also like the lettering of Suminoe.
The name is derived from the nearby Suminoe Shrine, but it seems to be a modern word, so I think it means "deep colored river" or something like that. I think it is located on the old Kitakamigawa River near the brewery. It seems to be near Ishinomaki station and also close to Hidakami-san.
First time at Suminoe.
An assemblage of four different sake rice blends.
The aroma is sweet like apples.
The aroma is sweet like apples with a hint of cheese.
The taste is surprisingly dry, unlike the aroma!
There is a bit of acidity, but it is mild and square in the mouth.
It is silky on the palate, gentle and easy to drink.
It is a versatile all-around food sake.
Pairing: Oden, fried oysters, white eggplant miso, horse mackerel sashimi
