A clear and gorgeous ginjo aroma reminiscent of white grapes.
The clear, clean mouthfeel is followed by a soft rice flavor and sweetness, and finishes with a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste.
I did a gutsy shoulder workout 💪 today,
I decided to have meat for dinner 🥩🔥.
Tonteki, a specialty of Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture 😆.
Garlic 🧄gutsu! I'm sure you'll love it 😋✌️
I can't go anywhere else 😁.
And today is my first Ona 🍶!
I'm so excited!
The aroma is gorgeous and fresh!
The sweetness fills your mouth.
It has very fine bubbles,
There are very fine bubbles🫧, but you don't feel any chili.
No cloying taste and a clear umami 🎵.
The temperature rises a little, and the umami increases,
It becomes mellow. 👍️
Ohhhh 🎵Yumami!
It is not defeated by the thick sweet and sour taste of Tonteki. ✌️
Good morning, Minosuke 😃!
Congratulations on your first Dana-san ㊗️ filled with excitement😍🎉The reward for your training efforts will be even better 🤗.
Great success👍
Jay & Nobby. Good morning ☀☀☀.
Tochigi's sake 🍶 is delicious 😋💕.
The map of Japan🗾 is not going to be filled in, as the regions are somehow biased 🤣.
First challenge! I hope to enjoy it 😆.
Another first issue series today🍶 "Ona".
This is another brand that I was curious about.
We finally had a chance to bring it to you.
We opened the bottle immediately.
Let's start with the aroma,
Fruity ⤴️ It was surprisingly fruity, and I immediately took a sip. It is sweet and delicious 🥰 followed by a slight sourness❓bitterness❓I really feel a slight bitterness that eases the sweetness.
It's so good 😋😋😋😋.
The sweetness is a little strong but also refreshing.
You can drink more and more 😍.
Tochigi Sake 😱
I thought Ona-san was famous for their nigori ⁉️, but if it's this good, I'm sure it's good for all of them 🥰.......
I'd like to try the dry version too. It was an intriguing bottle 💫.
Good evening, Mr. Baum 😃.
Congratulations on finally meeting your first Ona ㊗️ 🎉 whether it's cloudy or clear! Sweet or spicy, ‼️ they are all definitely delicious 😋 gentle Tochigi sake 😉 Enjoy 👋
Good evening, Jay and Nobby 😊.
It was our first Ona-san after a bit of preparation, but it was so delicious that I don't know if it was my own strength or Tochigi sake's levity 😱, but I savored it with satisfaction that I found a delicious sake 😋.
Ona" is a raw sake. The aroma is mellow before drinking, and when you put it in your mouth, you can strongly feel the umami from the sharp texture of Ona on your tongue.
I drink only nigori, but I feel that Ona is a wonderful brewery where you can feel the quality of Tochigi sake. I also like the Nama Hakashi and the dry Junmai, both of which are outstanding on the first day of drinking Nama and after the second day of drinking, so if you are interested in them, please be sure to try them!
The aroma is magic ink type and acidic. It tastes like a young apple because of its acidity and freshness.
The first day, it was quite stiff, and I had the impression that it was quite tough, partly because I was comparing it with Kaze no Mori CE. The second day, it was still a bit stiff, but I put it in one mouthful and left it for a while, and it became very soft and tasty!
At first I felt that it had to be served with a meal, but on the fourth day, it mellows out and becomes a juicy melon-like wine that can be drunk on its own at once. If you feel it is too strong, let it sit for a while! Super delicious!
If you want to pair it with something strong but mild, like sweet-and-sour pork or pork shabu-shabu with sesame sauce, I think it goes especially well with it.
