The spoils of my trip to Hiroshima (3)
I remember drinking Miho at Tomikyucho-san a long time ago, but I don't remember it, so this is my first time drinking it 🍶.
Hachiganso is the oldest native variety of the Hachiganso lineage, isn't it?
It has a fruity mouthfeel and is refreshing without being heavy 😋.
I drank it with sashimi and yakitori, but it seemed like it would drink well with more proper food.
100% Yatanso grown in Hiroshima Prefecture
Polishing ratio: 50% for koji rice, 60% for kake rice
The physical checkup is over. I'm getting better every year.
I have lifted the ban on alcohol (for the first time in 3 days) and ramen noodles. I don't feel like I banned it much, but I must have reduced the frequency. Maybe, I'm sure, it was just a dream.
Today is oysters🦪 and sake nomiho. You can have as many cups of oyster miso as you want.
I started with the Glasses Tomikunaga version. Personally, I was concerned about the sourness, but I was wearing glasses so I was fine. That's what glasses are for. They have a different level of protection from contact lenses.
Speaking of Ikebukuro ramen, Mutekiya is the best ramen restaurant in Ikebukuro. I was able to enter the restaurant without waiting in line because of the time difference. Lucky ✌️ The chashu pork was really tasty. It's a great first drink after a medical checkup.
I'm not sure how many people wrote that it was sweet, but it was different from my impression.
Good morning, Mr. Nochi!
Thank you very much for your physical checkup🍀.
After enduring even 3 days, it's a sinking feeling for the body tired from the physical checkup 😋.
The results are also looking up? I'm glad to hear that 🎵
Until the ramen noodles in the morning 🤣.
Good morning, Nochi-san ☀Do you mean the more you drink, the healthier you will be 🤣⁉️ I am thinking I have to go to Yamaoka family for some white miso 🍜.
Good evening, Nochi 🦉.
I saw Jiro first and thought I was going to go to the second restaurant 😳‼️ but the ban was lifted yesterday and I don't care how much you drink and eat 😆👍.
Good job on the physical 😊.
The aroma of rice is full and floral.
Somewhere in the mouth, it has an orange, caramelized nutty, aromatic flavor.
Smooth texture typical of autumn sake.
Fruity acidity and a mellow, fluffy, grain-like flavor.
Gentle and pleasant to drink.
The sharpness is clear and refreshing.
Taste level ☆ 3.5/5
When I purchased this bottle at the liquor store, I was told that it was delicious. I have had Tomikucho several times, and I have the impression that it has a refreshing sweetness and flavor, and is excellent as a food sake. I have been particularly interested in Akisakura.
It tastes like melon or persimmon, with a sweet and umami flavor that is well rounded. It is fruity, with a hint of koji flavor in the aftertaste. I wondered if the taste had been mellowed by letting it sit until autumn. There is no bitterness, and while the flavor is rich, the aftertaste is refreshing.
It was the kind of dish that made me want to have another glass. It would go well with anything, such as grilled swordfish, sushi, or simmered dishes.
Tomikyucho after a long time.
Miho was recommended to me at a liquor store.
It has a mellow aroma like apples.
It is refreshing on the palate, but the base is umami.
It has a bitter aftertaste. There is no spiciness.
It is not too sweet, and can be drunk without hesitation.
Pairing: Assorted sashimi, steamed scallion with sake, potato gratin, firefly squid stew
This is probably my first time to visit a sake brewery, including drinking outside.
I used to live in Saijo, Hiroshima, but I didn't know there was such a good sake in Akitsu. I didn't know that. It seems that the Hachitan type of sake is a good match.
The aroma is apple-like but weak, with little hint of incense.
First of all, the mouthfeel is smooth and round, and it gently envelops you. Although it is called hiyaoroshi, the taste is not heavy, but light and refreshing.
It has a good amount of sweetness and umami with a sharp finish. It is good both on its own and with food!
My favorite hiyaoroshi I've had so far 😊I want to drink it again next year. There is a highly rated autumn sake left after this, but the bar for satisfaction has been raised considerably 😅.
Good evening, studying 😃.
Tomikyucho I've only had Kai-fu-do, but Akisakura is your Dantotsu favorite😍!
I guess I raised the bar for that one 😅 but I'm glad you found a sake that satisfies you👍.
Good morning, studying 😃.
Tomikyucho! We've never had it 🥲 but I like the appearance of the simple label 😊 what can I say, inspiring review😍I'd like to get it if I see it ‼️
