Good morning, I'm looking forward to seeing you again! 🙋
The world is supposed to be warming up, but the thermometer outside our house was 9 degrees below zero 🥶.
The fire room was 2 degrees below zero 🥶🥶🥶.
There is quite a disparity between our current house which is highly insulated and airtight, so well, it's like this every year. 😅
The picture is of a Daiginjo of Shimehari Tsuru.
In the last upload, there was a gift from the chairman of the board (who is different from President Yaegashi Yoshiichiro).
It was a delicious sake, dry, yet with a delicious rice flavor.
Incidentally, Mr. Shimeharihizuru does not give tours of his brewery.
President Yaegashi said that when he and his friends went to various places to visit the brewery, only the brewery refused to have a tour.
Well, I guess there are various brewery policies. 😅
In my opinion, sake that costs more than 2,000 yen for a 4-goupe bottle is worth a lot of money. I'm not so sure about TAYOMO and ABEDE.
This shimehari is not spicy and lacks depth of flavor. It is just a little bit dry. I don't like it.
First trip to Niigata, soba restaurant!
Sake-like but a little sweet? The taste is strong but not unpleasant. It gets softer and softer and easier to drink!
Start of trip to Niigata!
Smell is quite fruity. I'm not a big fan of this type of taste (it's like "the sake"), but it disappears quickly and easily. It's strange and interesting!
As I drank more and more, it became easier to drink. It's like the sweetness increases?
The manager of the store recommended rock because it was 20 degrees 😮.
First of all, I took just one sip and tasted the strength of 20 degrees Celsius.
The moment it hits your mouth, the dryness that comes with a "gatsuon" (a sharp blow) disappears in an instant! The dryness that comes with it disappears in an instant.
I could have continued drinking it, but I was afraid of the aftertaste, so I decided to drink it on the rocks as recommended.
The spiciness remains even on the rocks, but it mellows out.
