Palm @ No connection with business trip
Today we took the limited express from Ikebukuro to the new sake festival at Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno. Chichibu Nishiki is a flying drink on the way there. I'm not going to Chichibu today.
Aroma of rice with a refreshing taste. Oh, it's wonderfully delicious. I feel the sake brewery has good taste in bringing special junmai instead of honjozo in a cup can for this kind of tourism. The rice flavor and soft sweetness. It has a nice crispness that flows smoothly. This is delicious. I want to visit Chichibu, too.
Fresh and gorgeously sweet aroma of apples and lime.
When you drink it, it is not sweet and has a dry touch,
The acidity is citrusy and fruity, and the rice is fresh and full-bodied.
The finish is clean and sharp.
Aromatic, dry, spicy flavor.
It goes well with snacks of wasabi and mozzarella cheese.
Taste 4.5/5
Yellowish liquid color
Full-bodied flavor and aroma with a graininess
Full-bodied sweetness like loose chestnuts in the aftertaste
Lingering taste
If served with inari sushi, it may lose out to the sugary sweetness of inari.
At the Japanese Sake Festival
Started drinking at 12°C.
Not much aroma.
When I put it in my mouth, the aroma and flavor of rice spread quickly.
This is what we call "Umakuchi"!
It is just like drinking rice.
Delicious.

Chichibu Nishiki is often seen at Kobe Hankyu.
I wonder if it's a special distributor 🤔.
It's a Nakakumi Namazumi sake. I wonder if it's actually a nama sake or not.
It seems like it's a nama-zake, but if it's a once-fired nama-zake, it might be a bit nama-zake.
It has a fresh, sweet taste, but then comes the umami taste with a strong, alcoholic flavor. It has a long aftertaste, probably because of the high alcohol content. It is good on the rocks.
The fourth picture is a small sea bream pickled in bamboo grass that I bought at an antenna store in KITTE. 🐟️
It was delicious and crispy 😋.
