Purchased at a local supermarket on a trip to Yamanashi in the midst of a typhoon that may or may not be coming.
It is sharp and dry. It is a good sake for a meal. I enjoy it with grilled sea bream and sashimi.
I was curious to buy a bottle of freshly squeezed new sake from a local Yamanashi sake brewery as part of OGINOSELECT at the OGINO supermarket in Yamanashi. The sweetness of the rice combined with the umami flavor makes it a perfect match for any dish. I want to eat this with Koshu beef!
Visit the Sake Fair for the First Time
One of the largest gathering of sake breweries in Japan
I was so engrossed in drinking that this is the only decent picture of a sake bottle I was able to take, so here's my review.
Shun no Uten from the Yamanashi Prefecture booth
Gentle and mellow
Not flashy, but gently cozy.
I had it cold, but I'd like to drink it warmed.
The brewer recommended heating it up.
The other prefecture that impressed us was Ehime, which exhibited a sake made with the prefecture-developed Sakurahime yeast, Shibari,
Kagawa Prefecture was also impressed with their Sanuki Olive Yeast, also developed by the prefecture,
In Fukushima Prefecture, the legendary Mr. Suzuki served us drinks,
In Miyagi Prefecture, I was able to meet Yuriyan from Koganezawa, whom I had longed to meet,
Three hours of excitement!
I had planned to visit booths all over the country, but I ran out of energy with only two prefectures left!
I hope to be back next year and have more time to enjoy the event!
Good evening, bap🌙.
I went to the event for the first time myself.
It's a unique way to enjoy this event to visit booths all over the country 😄.
Next year I will conquer the whole country ❗️😆
Good evening, bap 😄
