Hot sake 🍶Comfortable acidity.
The umami flavor spreads on the palate.
The aroma of rice spreads only when it's hot.
Suki! Not too strong and easy to drink.
Not too strong and easy to drink!
Delicious even after it cools down.
The acidity is just right.
I want to drink it all the time.
Ginbuki.
It is lightly nigori (lightly cloudy) but not too much so, apparently.
The umami gradually swells and explodes from the first to the middle part of the bottle.
The entrance is a thick pulpy aroma reminiscent of bananas and ripe melons.
In the mouth, the dry acidity wraps around the side of the tongue immediately after the thick rice flavor is felt.
It has a profound taste even though it is more like a "dry" wine, but it is not heavy on the palate because of the freshness of the wine.
While most of the nama-shu released at this time of year are intentionally light "summer sake," I am relieved to find a nama-shu full of classical elements such as this.
Once again, Shiga's sake is of a very high quality ✨✨It's delicious 🍶.
I think it goes well with all kinds of food, no matter what you eat.
Sake I had been curious about in Shiga Prefecture
I bought a bottle of ICHIHAKU that I had been curious about because of the label and the impact of the name.
The label on the back says that it is aged for two years.
I wanted to try it heated up with my favorite beans, which I can only eat from now on, but I drank it all cold 😢.
