Sake from Oki Island in Shimane. I'd like to go there at least once. It's been a long time since I've had alsobe sake. I can drink it easily and refreshingly.
Tomorrow is my day off again, so I'm going to enjoy it slowly and hot.
Happy sake that can be drunk with lingering memories of Shimane trip and rich aroma 🍶.
10:30 p.m.: 2 people on the sofa at home
Sake with Izumo Wariko Soba at a soba restaurant in a samurai residence by Matsue Castle.
It is refreshing. It has a refreshing sweetness and bitterness.
It is excellent when paired with fresh soba noodles and lightly sweetened fried bean curd.
The sweetness of the sake seems to be added to the sweetness of the fried bean curd.
Combined with the atmosphere of the samurai residence, it is the best luxury 😀.
It has a full flavor that is typical of hiyaoroshi. It has a strong umami flavor, but the aftertaste is so refreshing that you can drink as many glasses as you like. It goes perfectly with bonito tataki. It also went well with tofu miso soup with less miso. It also goes well with rich foods such as tomato falsies, which is unexpected because it has a refreshing aftertaste.
Today is the 40th anniversary of my grandfather's death.
The sacred sake is Oki Homare hiyaoroshi.
I hope my grandfather, who loved sake, was pleased with it.
This is an event post that will never seem to end endlessly 🤣.
The Shimane Sake Fair" was held by the Shimane Sake Brewers Association.
There was a long line from the admission desk to the 12th floor of the building, and it was so hot I almost died 💦.
We waited for Hirupeko and bouken to enter while tasting the sake here closest to the entrance.
The first brewery at the Shimane Sake Fair.
Oki Sake Brewery "Oki Homare", Oki District, Shimane Prefecture
Oki Sake Brewery was established through the merger of five breweries on the island.
It brews quite highly acclaimed sake, winning the 2022 KURAMASTER Platinum and Gold awards, the 2022 IWC SAKE's BRONZE, and the Wine with Delicious Sake Award Gold.
[Oki Homare Ginjo] 🔴.
It is clear on the palate, clean to the end, and a bit spicy at the end.
Oki Homare Junmai Ginjo
Even clearer than the Ginjo, and a little less than satisfying.
Oki Homare Junmai Daiginjo
Fruity from the aroma, and a taste that is not too rich, but gently sweet and delicious.
Oki Homare Muromachi Junmai Sake 90
A reproduction of a sake from the Muromachi period. The color is amber even though it has not been aged. Super sweet and rich, but easy to drink.
We greeted Mr. Hirupeko and Mr. Bouken who entered the bar.
Good evening, Pon-chan 🌛I'm just using my liver power for weekend tasting events and drinking up there 😁thanks to you, I can't reduce the amount of sake in my fridge 🤣I still have Shiga sake festival and sake go-around 💦.
