I like to drink sake that is usually consumed in unfamiliar places.
I bought this sake when I was in Toyama. I was also struck by the visual 💕.
Namekawa is just passing by 🚙🙇♂️
Thinking of the city near the sea 😌.
Even the honjozo is luxurious with 60% polished rice✨
It's soft on the palate and goes well with all kinds of snacks 😊.
And quite dry ⚡️
I thought it tasted similar to Niigata sake, but it's interesting that it's clearly different from the one from the neighboring Joetsu region 🤔.
Good evening, Jurian.
I like your local sake, honjozo.
I envy you the luxury of making sake with 60% polished rice. The taste of sake is different even in neighboring prefectures such as Niigata and Toyama. It is interesting.
Thank you very much, Maruwa-san.
I felt that Namekawa is closer to Niigata in Toyama Prefecture and this sake was a good approximation, but the Joetsu region adjacent to Toyama Prefecture has many sweet sake even within Niigata, which led me to the above impression 😊.
I bought this on my way home from a business trip.
I thought it would be sweet, but the taste was very refreshing and sharp. I thought it was sweet, but the taste was very refreshing and sharp, so I thought it might be dry. It is a beautiful sake, and I think it is better not to chill it too much. I will try Junmai Ginjo next time as it seems to have a different taste.
This is one of the sake I got from a liquor store in Toyama.
It has a beautiful umami taste, a slight spiciness, and a moderate acidity, and is superbly balanced.
The last day of the holiday weekend was a sake from Toyama Prefecture that I had procured when I was in Kanazawa.
It is not a draft sake, but it is a very tasty food sake 😊.
Easy to drink with a refreshing taste
Slightly dry with little sweetness
It has a nice sharpness and matches well with food. ✨️
It was recommended by the owner, but it was the right choice: ✌️
Just a few of the drinks from last week's trip to Toyama that I have not posted here....
Eden by Chiyotsuru, which may not be a major sake in Tokyo, but is very popular in Toyama and is fought over by many.
It is made from 100% Tominokoso produced in Namekawa and limited to 1,400 bottles. It is limited to 1,400 bottles and has a high alcohol content of 18 degrees.
