Sake we got today 🍶.
Rumiko in Autumn
(Junmai sake Rumiko's sake Ise Nishiki Akiagari)
Moriki Sake Brewery (Mie)
Respected female master brewer
Aki-agari made by Rumiko
I bought it in September and let it sit in my closet for about two and a half months.
I let it sit in the closet for about two and a half months
Now it's time to open the bottle!
I wondered how the aroma would be since it had been sitting in the closet for so long.
I wondered how the aroma would be..,
But thanks to the use of Kumamoto yeast
It has a gorgeous aroma!
You can drink just from the aroma alone.
The longer it sits, the rounder it becomes.
It's mellowed out and has a mild taste.
I paired it with a curry pot with soup stock.
Sweat and sake go together.
As expected of Rumiko-san!
Although it is listed as super-harsh +14, it felt more like a mild food sake than a spicy sake, probably because it was laid down in the last glass.
It has just the right amount of umami and acidity, and although it is a draft sake, it would be good warmed up.
Overall, I have the image of Mie sake as having a good balance of umami and sweetness.
After leaving the first restaurant with my drinking buddy, I followed him to a restaurant he wanted to try. He told me that last time he couldn't get in because the restaurant was full. This time, after a short wait, they were able to get in. It's a small place run by a couple, but the atmosphere is stylish and young. They recommended heated sake, so I tried my first brand. It was delicious, with a gentle flavor.

Nagoya Junmai SAKE WEEK
A lady was coming out in front of the booth 😄.
I looked over and saw a set of hot sake on the table ♨️
She said heated sake is the main attraction 😆.
While asking for heated sake, I first had a little cold 🧊.
Slightly acidic. Strong mouthfeel 😤.
Finally, I get a heated ♨️.
The acidity has disappeared and the mouthfeel is mellow and creamy. It was creamy. You can feel the sake spreading in your mouth 😊.
Certainly the sake is more appealing when heated 🥰.
