What is this?
It's a Ten Rising Sun.
I'll have a freshly opened bottle.
I think I prefer this one.
It's a little dry, but you can taste the sweetness at the end.
Let's start with the one we didn't drink last week.
Skandhavn
Rice: Omachi
Sake degree: +14.5
Alcohol percentage: 18
Yeast: No.7
Magena" is an Izumo dialect word meaning "great" or "so great".
Debut of nigori sake. It had a slight carbonation and acidity, and when I compared it with the aged Juhasuhi, it was totally different!
We then had the nigori sake heated up. Again, cold sake and hot sake were totally different. It was a great learning experience for me as a beginner.
The second bottle of Ten Asahi Days is "Gohyakumangoku no Namahyashiroshi".
The color is very dark because it is 28BY😅
The aroma is more subdued than Kagamiso, but when you drink it, it has a strong sense of maturity 🤣.
It tastes like I left a bottle of sake I was about to drink in the shed at home and let it mature 😅.
I think I drank this at a Shimane sake event 🤔I think I drank it heated at the time.
I thought it tasted like Nada Nama Nama Ippon from Kenrishi.
I didn't take a picture of it, but I was allowed to try 4 new Honshu Ichi sake and bought a bottle of one of them!
This is another Ten Rising Sun purchased at the brewery.
They didn't have enough time for tasting and purchasing because of the shortened time they could stay at the brewery.
This one is also a bit old and matured. Maybe 30BY
The top aroma is quite mature😅.
But when you drink it, it is easy to drink.
But it is easy to drink, but not too much like a yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast.
Well, I think it is unique...
I didn't drink this one, but it was on the line at a Shimane sake event I went to 2 years ago. You can see a bit of it in the picture I posted.
Purchased at the Asahi Sake Brewery, which I happened to pass by in the Izumo City shopping street during a trip to Shimane. The junmai ginjo zodiac sign label and design were very cute.
The first sip has a clear ginjo-like aroma with a fluffy, gorgeous flavor. Immediately after, there is a strong, firm rice flavor. The aftertaste is dry. It is a pleasant sake, just like a dry and sunny day.
