Matsu Midori Hiyoshi Oroshi, which had been sitting in the fridge, was opened! The aroma is sweet and fruity from Omachi! The flavor of Oumachi and the moderate bitterness from the sweet flavor are superb...! The umami of Omachi...irresistible...I enjoy it with seasonal sashimi...little by little...

I just wanted to take a relaxing soak in a hot spring, so I went to Hakone.
I went directly to the inn and relaxed without stopping anywhere.
After all, a drink after a hot spring bath is a special treat. ☺️
It was a little cold that day, so I had it warmed up, and it was quite refreshing and sharp.
It was quite sharp and refreshing, and I thoroughly enjoyed it with Hakone Nishiroku Beef.
On the way back, we took a short detour 🌾.
After a long time, I went to Obanzai in Noge. The owner's original stew of "motsu-ni" is really delicious and has a very gentle taste. I had another helping. I paired it with a glass of warmed Matsumidori. The other dishes were akahoshi and obanzai. Everything was great!
The Matsu Midori Aki-agari, which we usually drink at the Odawara Kamaboko Dori Revitalization Council [Autumn Sake Ajiwai Tour - Junmai Sake from 13 breweries], is a well-liked autumn sake. It has a stable taste.
My favorite Kanagawa sake 🍶♪Matsumidori! The aroma is slightly fruity...mellow and umami...classic flavor. You can taste the umami of the rice. The aging process has made it more rounded and angular! Pair it with the flavors of autumn! I enjoy it with raw bonito.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃 Actually, we have Hiyayagoroshi waiting in the fridge too..............................the store owner said that Aki-agari tastes great warmed up too. The shop owner said that Aki-agari is also good warmed up! I'm looking forward to this one too!
Soft flavor and clean aftertaste.
Good aroma.
I paired it with a mushroom dish and it was perfect.
It would probably be perfect with fish dishes as well.
Sake rice is Miyamanishiki

Purchased at a local sake shop specializing in sake, drawn by the label design and the overall impression of the bottle.
The first sip surprised me with a bitterness beyond my imagination. Is this good? As you take the second and third sips, you become accustomed to the bitterness and at the same time you notice that the alcohol taste is getting stronger. Then you notice that the sweetness remains at the end. But the intoxication soon fades. It is refreshing, leaving a bitter taste on the upper jaw and throat.
To be honest, I could not find out what I should drink it with this time.
As the name "Matsumidori" suggests, it is as if one bites into a pine leaf and feels the bitterness and greenness of the leaf. It has been a long time since I have had sake, and this was a new encounter. It is said to be an autumn-aged one.
