Mimuro cedar, which I haven't had in a while, is very tasty.
The person I drank it with yesterday said that he couldn't find a better sake than Mimuro Cedar, which makes me think so.
Mimuro cedar, Bodai-Hashiwadashi Yamadanishiki
Beautiful vinegar iso & slight alcohol smell
Cool and refreshing sweetness like ramune every time - (in addition to the usual banana taste 🍌, there is also a caramel-like complexity! I wonder if this is where the difference between the Roman series and Bodhidhara leads?)
Thank goodness it's less than 4000 yen per square 🥰.
crispy melon
The aroma is reminiscent of ripe melon and lactic acid. From the clean mouthfeel, crisp, clear acidity flows in parallel with cotton candy-like sweetness. The second half is complex and finishes with a slight bitterness.
Like a crisp melon cocktail, it is easy to drink even in hot weather.

This time we open Dio Abita in Mimuro cedar.
Dio Abita is the Italian word for "divine", and has won many awards at the SAKE competition and the Sendai Sake Summit.
As a sake meek person, I wanted to try it, so I took a sip!
What a delicious taste!
What is this flavor?
Juicy and mildly sweet with a freshness like that of a rummy 😋.
The gentle acidity and slight bitterness are well balanced.
I thought it tasted like something I've had before, but it has a similar taste and sharpness to Ryoseki Shuzo's Suitama in Akita Prefecture ✨.
The snack this time was something with duck and mozzarella cheese in olive oil.
It went well with it and I drank it very fast!
I opened half of it at once because it was low alcohol (13 degrees)...
It was a perfect match for my taste!
Mimuro Sugi Romain Series Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki.
We will be receiving a Junmai Ginjo of Yamadanishiki from Imanishi Shuzo Mimuro Sugi, which has a brewery in Miwa, Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture, the birthplace of Japanese sake.
The refreshing, cool, apple-like aroma on the nose is followed by the mild sweetness of Yamadanishiki, and then the umami spreads out. The clear, fresh acidity finishes off the crisp finish.
Today, we served this sake with Miwa Somen, the birthplace of Somen, which is made from the same brewing water as Mimuro Sengen. The sourness of the ume-flavored dipping sauce is a perfect match!
