Mother's Day with friends at a nice Japanese restaurant
We ordered the sake pairing course.
We were served 10 bottles chosen by the owner.
The one that left the biggest impression on me was Toyo Bijin 🥰.
Delicate taste and gorgeous aroma.
Yamaguchi Prefecture Sumikawa Shuzo Brewery Toyo Bijin Jyundo Isshu
The aroma is fresh and fruity.
In the mouth, umami flavor surges with a slight gaseous sensation.
After that, a fruity sweetness joins in and it becomes gorgeous.
Gentle on the palate from its gorgeous aroma, Aizan's sweetness and acidity are well balanced, fresh and juicy, and beautifully presented.
Accompanied by grilled sardines with salt
Three sakes I drank when I visited my favorite restaurant, Chuin, on April 10, after it reopened for business, to pay a visit to the owner, Mr. Kawada.
The second sake was Toyo Bijin's limited Junmai Ginjo Oorigarami Nama 🍶.
This one was really the last cup at the bottom of the bottle.
The aroma was so mild that the fruity notes appeared hazy in the distance.
The taste is unexpectedly dry.
The taste is dry and smooth, with a slight taste of sake lees spreading in the mouth.
It was a soft umami sake with the umami of the rice supporting it, but this was my first experience of a Toyo Bijin with such a low fruity flavor.
I have seen many people say that it is very fruity on the palate, so I wanted to try it at home and follow the changes in the opening of the bottle 🍶.
Hi Aladdin-san!
I'm relieved to hear that Kawada-san seems to be all right for the time being 😄.
I was going to visit you the other day, but I found out on SNS that you were closed, so I'll do it another time ✨.
I'm curious about the "Toyo Bijin Origarami" which I haven't had yet 🥰.
Good evening, Gyve 😃.
First of all, I'm really glad to hear that.
I wish I could have been there with you 😌It looks like it will be open on a trial basis for a while, but if you get a chance, please come back😊.
I would like to drink this drink at home from the mouth opening again too 🍶.
