The next choice was Junmai Ginjo by Tomonori.
It is sweeter and more delicious than the previous one.
I matched it with the white fish that gradually appeared on the menu.
It was delicious.
I was going to travel to Shimane in the summer and wondered if there were any good sake breweries. I looked up sake breweries in Shimane and found "Oh! There's the Gassan brewery that you often see at Sake-no-wa..." - "Oh. Tomonori..." - "You go to the sake brewery but they don't sell it..."
So I couldn't resist and popped it until the day of the trip.
Just by twisting the cork, the gorgeous aroma spreads, the gassy feeling spreads, and the fruity taste like a Japanese pear spreads. Smooth and juicy, with a gentle lingering finish.
As expected, the president chose the most delicious tank sake of the year: 👍🏼
chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta)
Although I thought the name was quite assertive, when I tried it, I found it easy to drink and tasty, with a strong sweetness from the strong umami of the rice, even though the sake is +1 and has an alcohol content of 16%.
The name of the sake is the same as that of the brewery's president and chief brewer, Mr. Tomonori Yoshida. It is a limited edition sake made by the president himself, bottled from the middle portion of the best brewing tank in the brewery that year.
Junmai Ginjo-Nakadori Unfiltered Nama-shu for limited distribution
Berry Sweet, and the waitress introduces it to inbound customers.
The aroma doesn't rise to the top, but...
Sweet to the touch. Thick and syrupy texture.
Not juicy, but dense yet fresh.
Dark sweet, but with a slight astringency in the second half,
It does not expand, so there is no clinginess, and the taste converges smoothly.
Delicious!
Taste: 3/5 stars.
I bought the official badge lol.
It's my favorite one, orikarami nama sake. It was sold at 7-Eleven!
To be honest, I don't really like sake made with lees, but I like this one because the bitterness becomes milder and more voluminous when lees are mixed in, which is quite rare!
It's like raising the temperature a little.
★★★★★
Holy crap, just as I expected, or even better.
It's been a long time since I've encountered one.
Even 5★ is not enough.
I made a quick decision to buy it because it was the best barrel I've made in a year, and I was right!
