April 12 Petit Kumamoto Off-line meeting
The third glass: Kaze ga Kowaku Yamahai Junmai Ginjyo Nama Shu
First time to drink this brand 🔰.
Soft sweetness and acidity typical of Yamahai, and then it cuts through quickly.
The aftertaste is dry.
It goes well with a meal 🥰.
Rice / Gohyakumangoku (organically grown rice)
Polishing ratio / 50%.
Sake meter / +3
Acidity / 1.5
This is one of the bottles we were allowed to sample at a sake shop we stopped by during our trip to Fukushima.
As it was introduced as an apple/pineapple type sake, it has a refreshing acidity, a firm sweetness, and a nice crispness from the umami.
And the crispness from the umami!
I was impressed that the owner of the store added that the sake was like Kanna Hashimoto's sake!
I also bought a bottle of sake compared to Ayase Haruka, so I am looking forward to drinking that one too!
I had this sake in Kagurazaka, which is rapidly gaining popularity these days.
I have a vague recollection of it, but I think it was fizzy and had a strong umami taste.
We had it last year at this time of the year, too.

The gold label of the wind blows. Refreshing pear-like aroma. Quite austere sake. The sweetness is almost imperceptible, but when you swallow it, you are left with the impression of 'Oh, there was a faint sweetness, like a pear...'.
I had some of the special junmai left over from the other day, so I compared them, but junmai ginjo is still delicious 😆.
It's too easy to drink 😅
Be careful not to drink too much 😂! 😂
Today's dish
Strawberry Caprese with Burrata Cheese✨
I've been dreaming of Burrata Cheese✨Melting, delicious 😙✨.
It was warm during the day today and it felt like spring ✨.
The light nigori is pink labeled and pretty as spring 🩷.
I think it's slightly fruity and quite acidic 🌸

Good evening, HINANOHA😄.
Wow😍that's a lovely table. Lots of strawberries🍓❣️ I can only imagine the marriage with burrata cheese 😋 wind blowing, I've never seen it before ☺️ It's a perfect banquet for spring 🥰.
Hi HinaHanaMama, good evening 😊The whole family loves strawberry caprese so much that it's a battle 🤣 and today it was gone in an instant lol.
Spring is almost here🌸I'm looking forward to drinking various spring drinks💕.
Yum! This is so good!
The potential of Fukushima Prefecture's sake is too great.
This one seems to be made with Fukushima rice called Fukunoka. Thank you, Fukunoka! And Shirai Sake Brewery!
I'm so happy today!
I'm going to have a yellowtail stew later.
With jako-ten (fish cake) and deep-fried tofu. 😊.
And to top it off, leftover ro-niku-meshi from the other day. 😍
Tastes like fruity melon.
Light and light in the mouth. Perfectly delicious.
Good overall balance.
Good overall balance. 😋.
I enjoyed the first glass cold and the rest hot.
I enjoyed it. 😍😍
