The 8th Osaka Takashimaya Sake Festival⑳
Rumiko's sake booth.
Eiji-san moved to the booth to greet the brewers.
Rumiko's Sake: Kimoto-brewed Kojo-shu (premium sake), oversized, unfiltered, fire-aged, undiluted sake.
The aroma has a strong sweetness. The sweetness of the sake is milder than the aroma would suggest. The overall impression is gentle, but there is a sharp taste at the end.
◉Riestyle Yamahai Special Junmai Yamadanishiki Unfiltered Fire-aged
Standard classic, with a pungent acidity and spiciness.
It was a different impression from the Rumiko-labeled sake, which I was not so crazy about.
The restaurant I was going to go to was closed, so I wandered in. (A common one...)
When you put it in your mouth, it has a refreshing sweetness, but it stimulates your tongue as you pass by.
The aftertaste is clean and easy to drink.
Tokyo is cool today, so oden 🍢.
Commentary.
This bottle is characterized by the mild aroma derived from No. 6 yeast and the freshness that only unfiltered, unpasteurized sake can offer.
When you put it in your mouth, it is light and refreshing at first. It is a deeply flavored sake with a sourness, a voluptuous umami, and a sharpness.
SUPPIN" - Junmai-shu as it was born
This fresh sake is bottled as it comes out of the tank. It is named "Suppin" because it is unfiltered, carbon-free, additive-free, and unpasteurized.
It has a taste that will not betray you. It is delicious.
Trays? What's that good for?
It was the perfect reward for my hard work!
I had it cold and it was so easy to drink!
I am not good at describing the taste!
I can't describe it as "bananas" or "nuts" or "fullness of rice" like everyone else at Sake-no-Wawa!
But anyway, it was delicious and made me happy, so I'm glad I drank this sake today!
For those of you who worked during the Obon vacations and those of you who enjoyed your vacations during the Obon vacations, I wish you a delicious sake Kanpai 🍶✨!
Package, you changed.
The last of the day.
Yamadanishiki and Hachitanishiki.
The first half of the bottle has a fresh umami and acidity.
The mid-part of the bottle is medium-bodied, with a hint of zing and umami.
The slightly dry finish is followed by a lingering aftertaste.
