Lake Noguchina hyacinth
Mr. Noguchi is a non-drinker.
He seems to follow "Toan" and sales people to get their feedback on the direction of taste.
People's tastes change rapidly with the times. I make sake that people want. That is my creed. He said.
At the tasting room "Toan", a small number of people (12 seats) can try tasting sake in a calm space inspired by a tea ceremony room. The format is to enjoy how the taste changes by changing the sake cup and temperature   .
Dr. Naohiko Noguchi!
I forgot to take a picture of the bottle... dark blue with a pattern like a white fat...
A different atmosphere! It's dark and refreshing!
It's not too thick, but it's not bad!
It's spicy, but I don't dislike it - it's because it's thick!
This sake has quite a strong flavor. It has a soft mouthfeel with umami and bitterness. It has a long aftertaste, so it is a good match for vegetable dishes.

Rice] 100% Gohyakumangoku
Rice Polishing Ratio] Not disclosed.
Alcohol Content】20%.

Appearance] Slightly yellowish crystal
[Taste] [Mouthfeel
Body: 3.0
Acidity: 2.0 (lactic acid type)
Sweetness: 1.5 (from alcohol?)
Umami: 2.5
Bitterness: 2.0
Lingering: Strong umami and a hint of alcohol linger for a long time, with a light bitterness in the latter half.
Impression] High-alcohol, rich and dry.
In addition to the umami rice aroma, there are hints of hay and nuts from the aging process. The taste has a punch of alcohol and sugar content, so you can taste chocolate. It has a strong taste by itself, so you will want a strong partner.
But when I diluted it with water to about 15% alcohol and drank it without the alcohol armor, it became a very smooth, flavorful, umami dry wine. I hope everyone will give it a try.
Pairing] Strong flavored stewed dishes and raw chocolate. It went well with Karasumi Soba.
Repeat Score] 1.5
...
One of the great Dr. Naohiko Noguchi.
It was the first taste of sake I have ever had.
It was an experience I cannot describe.
It is drunk because it has a high degree of alcohol content!
Sake made by the god of sake brewing, Naohiko Noguchi.
I had been curious about it for a long time and finally got to drink it.
It has a delicious flavor and a clean aftertaste, so you can drink as many glasses as you like!
I can drink as many glasses as I want!
I usually get a harsh aftertaste when I drink a lot, but this one was delicious all the way through until it was empty!
but this one tasted great all the way until it was empty!
But it's so strong, you'll get drunk!
I was expecting sweetness since it was unfiltered, but was surprised by its crisp mouthfeel. However, when I slowly checked the taste, I found a lingering sweetness, which gave me the impression that there was a wide range of ways to enjoy it. I thought it would go well with refreshing summer meals.
The sweetness seemed to change depending on the temperature. The sweetness seemed to increase as the temperature rose.
Smoky, nutty, savory aroma
Smooth to the touch
Fresh and floral aroma like sandalwood passes through to the nose.
The freshness is retained while the umami of rice lingers on the tongue.
A strange sake that is heavy but not boring to drink
