When you put it in your mouth, the umami is assertive. Perhaps because it is served cold, the aroma is not so strong.
With all due respect, I did not expect Yamada-Nishiki from Osaka to go this far. More than I expected.
The red label, which has been in the lineup for some time, was made with Yamadanishiki produced in Higashiosaka under the supervision of Tetsuji Shampoo Hat (only Kansai people would understand this 🙄 ), but this green label uses Yamadanishiki from Hineno, Izumisano City, where the brewery is located.
Unlike the dry red label, this one is said to be sweet.
It is fruity and light, with a gentle but not overpowering sweetness. There is a slight spiciness at the end. Although it is a pure sake, it is not heavy and easy to drink.
I think this may be my favorite of all the Shounosato sakes I've had so far.
Good evening Rafa 😃.
So-no-Sato sometimes comes to Kintetsu in Harukas, or you can find it in the Osaka sake section of Aeon 😁.
Osaka sake is also very tasty 😃.
Last of the Osaka Night Party
The last one was a bottle of sake with aluzoe.
It's so punchy!
It has a nice mouthfeel, so you can drink it easily, but it makes your throat and nose hot.
I couldn't take any more, so maybe it is a good sake for the end.
I would like to drink it plain.
Osaka Night Party is the second restaurant.
After eating Korean food and drinking too much makgeolli, we decided to have a little palate cleanser.
We went to a restaurant in Senbiru basement, which we had wanted to visit for a long time.
The proprietress recommended this bottle of makgeolli.
It has a refreshing taste with a gentle sweetness.
The finish was crisp and dry, and I thought it would be a good mid-meal sake.
Unfortunately, my stomach was too full to gauge its potential.
I bought it as recommended at a roadside station.
It has been a while since I had a dry sake.
I drank it in one gulp and it was gone in no time at all!
Today we are in Shounosato.
This sake is from Izumisano, in the south of Osaka.
Today I'm here for an event called Tenma Daijukai, a big gathering of Osaka sake. It was very crowded ^ ^.
I've been drinking so many different sake breweries that I don't understand what's going on, but Shonosato was a personal favorite of mine.
It has a slightly refreshing aroma.
The sweet and sour apricot aroma is refreshing, and the second half of the bottle is very dry and tasty.
Today I participated in the Osaka Prefecture preliminary round of the sake tasting competition at the Tenma Taishukai, but the results were disappointing💦.
The result was so bad that I crushed the mineral water I was drinking, and it was so frustrating that I had no face to show to the sake drinkers!
We had to switch the order of 7 kinds of sake and drink them twice to match, which was extremely difficult 😱😱😱😱👻👻🌪.
But it was a very interesting and good experience ^ ^ ^.
I'm still a beginner in Sake 🔰🌀
Hi...
This is good.
I can buy So-no-Sato so-so in my neighborhood, so I'm glad to know it's available.
You are a good sake brewer.
They often come to department store tasting and sales events, so here I didn't stop by...
Sounds like a fun event ‼️ wish I knew about it in advance so I could go 😆 Qualifying for sake tasting ❗ Sounds very nerve wracking ⤴️⤴️ It's not the same as relaxing and drinking - but it sounds interesting 😃.
Hi Hirupeko, good evening 🌙I didn't know there was such an amazing event 🌙Thanks for your hard work ‼️😊It would be amazing if you could taste sake, but I know it's absolutely impossible, so Hirupeko is awesome for taking on the challenge ✨.
Good evening, pyonpyon. Sake tasting is difficult! It is hard just to drink 7 kinds of sake in 7 minutes. It is frustrating! But I'm having the best time experiencing the frustration of this kind of adult club activity 😆.
Good evening, Wakata-san. Yes, there was such an event at the Tenma Taishukai 😊I was devastated by the laxity of my nose and tongue, and that was a super interesting experience as well 😆.
Hi Hirupeco ☔.
I'm sorry to hear that the sake tasting contest is so difficult even for Hirupeko-san, she seems pretty tough 😱 but it looks like a lot of fun... 😆👍
Hirupeko, this tournament is the one with the national competition, right? My husband qualified a long time ago and said it was difficult 😅I'm not even close 💦.
Yes, the top two can go to the national competition. It is true that the Shiga Prefecture competition is highly labeled 😱 and you have to know how to compete. But it's a great experience to know that they judge in such a short time at the competition!
Nuwaniiiii!
7 kinds of drinking comparison!
I'm Hirupeko-san Kochikara (Koko Karamo) 👋💧.
I wish I could have been there 👋 I'm sure you'll be able to guess the 3 pairs and only one of them will not be a pair.
I wish I could have been there too😇.
Hi, Sakeran, I was trying to guess the ranking of 7 kinds by switching the order and drinking them twice, but my brain was in a panic and I didn't have time to write the answer 😱Sakeran, let's participate next year 💪.
Osaka Prefecture Kitashoji Sake Brewery's "So-no-Sato" booth.
A sake brewery in Izumisano, near Kansai Airport.
Shonosato Daiginjo Hatsurichiri Unfiltered Nama Sake.
Fruity and fresh. It has a hint of sweetness and is elegantly prepared. I was going to buy it because it is delicious, but when I looked at the price, I put it on hold😅.
Yukika Nigori Shinsyu Nama Zakari
I was allowed to drink it, saying that it had been open for a while, but I really couldn't feel much gas. It was easy to drink with a creamy rice taste.
Junmai Daiginjo Kamikamiya
Made with Osaka-grown Yamadanishiki, which is pesticide-free and chemical fertilizer-free.
It's an obfuscated sake 😅.
Taste is not very impressive...
We must support local Osaka sake❗.
Nemuchi-san, excuse me here too😊.
I tasted Sou no Sato during a sake tour a few years ago and they were pushing grilled green onion miso with sakekasu more than sake 🤣 they offered me so much but I refused so much 🤣.
Good evening, Nemuchi.
I remember that the food was surprisingly very good 😅Nemuchi-san, isn't it strange that the southern part of Osaka is so far away from your house ❓
bouken, this is the warehouse of the baked green onion miso push you were talking about before 😊🤣I sometimes buy sakekasu so I might buy baked green onion miso too🤣🤣this time it was just sake 😆.
Good evening, good evening 🌛I went to Abeno Harukas for probably the second time 😅Osaka sake has good sake too 😊I'm mostly in Kyoto area, but I often go to southern Osaka to fish and go to Kansai airport 🚗I didn't know Kamikamiya 🤣.
I don't know much about locally produced sake, so I tried it out on the road ^ ^.
I didn't know the aroma because it wasn't in a glass.... The impression I got when I drank it was
It was not very thick, but smooth and a little watery. It was not very thick, but smooth and a little watery. But from the middle of the drink, I felt a pretty strong alcohol taste, and a nice aroma escaped from my nostrils, and I enjoyed the aftertaste.... Thank you very much!
