We were out of several brands that we were interested in!
Banshu Issen Spring Shine, Ichinoya and Kamonishiki!
Now let's change the mood and go to Junmai!
Tadashi from Yamanashi Sake!
Up until now, Tadashi has only been junmai ginjo three times!
This time it was Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu Shinjo 2024!
This one is good, too!
It's hard to describe, but it's delicious all the same.

It's kind of cold 🥶, so I thought about sake that can be heated up and this is what I came up with 💁. Today we will compare cold and hot sake 😁.
Let's start with the cold sake. The nose has a hint of koji, sweetness, and a little bit of ear of rice.
In the mouth, it is fresh, with an initial acidity, followed by the sweetness of the rice, and finally a bitter, crisp finish.
Next, I would like to try it with hot sake. The aroma of grains becomes stronger. The mouthfeel is mellow and the acidity increases, and the taste is mellow at the end.
I think I prefer it heated up today. ☺️
I tried it for the first time with pickled squid with sakekasu (sake lees), and the overall flavor of the squid, which is gentle and not too salty, and the soft taste of sakekasu goes well with this sake.
