Taste & Aroma
It has an aroma of cemedine and ethanol. In the mouth, it is slightly fruity, slightly light, and dry, with little umami, acidity, or bitterness. After a little while, the aroma settles down and becomes mild, and the spiciness becomes more pronounced. It also has a stronger acidity and a little bitterness and umami, making it a refreshing drink.
My first sake "Matsuo" Junmai Ginjo White Label.
My wife bought it on the way home. The price was ¥1,400-.
It was unusual for my wife to choose a sake with the word "dry" at the edge of the label (she didn't seem to notice it).
I took a sip and wondered what it smelled like. I took a sip.
It wasn't so much dry as it was sensibly +1 or +2. It's quite tasty, isn't it?
On the second day, I tried heating it up, but it felt better.
It's good for cold nights.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby!
I don't actively buy dry sake, but I do like it "heated" during the cold season, so I always have some sake for that purpose 😊.
First Matsuo.
It has a classical label, but it is just as beautiful and delicate as the 38% polished version. As the temperature rises, the flavor increases, but there is not much of a subtlety to the taste.
Almost Sashi-Drinking🍶 with the owner, Mr. Kawada, at Standing Drinking CHUIN
The fourth sake was Matsuo's MADARAO.
The fourth sake was Matsuo's MADARAO, an autumn-aged junmai ginjo sake brewed with 100% Yamae-Nishiki from the foot of Mt.
I think I have not had Matsuo since Pon-chan brought it to me at the Kansai Sake no Wawa Hankai Train Off-line Meeting 🤔.
The aroma is mild, but the ginjo aroma seems to have deepened slightly with aging.
The mouthfeel is soft and smooth with a calming texture that gives a slight sense of maturity.
The sweetness and acidity are also very mild, giving a good impression of calm and cleanliness.
While showing some complexity from the aging process, the beautiful sweetness and umami spread softly and flow smoothly.
It is likely to warm up considerably, but it is also delicious cold.
It is not a smooth saké, but it is a saké that can be drunk slowly and easily.
It's delicious. ☺️
I want to try drinking it at home.
While discussing the contents of the SAKE DIPLOMA exam with the owner, Mr. Kawada, we moved on to the next sake.
Hi Aladdin 🐦.
I drank some Ikarao after the offline meeting, but I haven't had this Hiyadoroshi yet 😳I heard that it looks like it will warm up, I would like to have it this time of the year 😆.
I'm curious about what you and Kawada-san are talking about 😆.
Good evening, Pon-chan 😃.
I've been wanting to drink Matsuo since the Hankai train but haven't been able to 😌 I'd love to try a non-Akiagari Motto 🤤.
I'm sure you and Kawada will have a great time at chuin 😁.
