まめうめ
Junmai sake made with Hitanishiki produced in Shimotsuma City, Ibaraki Prefecture, and poppy flower yeast. It was named "Shio" after the national butterfly "Oomurasaki," which represents Shimotsuma City, and is said to have been inspired by the image of the poppies dancing in the fields of poppies. I imagined it would have a gorgeous taste, but it was light, crisp, and acidic, with no lingering aftertaste. We are still searching for what to drink with it.
