My wife bought the sake she liked best among those she tasted while talking with a person from Iwase Sake Brewery who was at the department store.
The sake here is said to be made from very hard water with a hardness of 240. So the name of the sake also comes from this.
The aroma is mild and fresh, and I think it is slightly spicy rather than sweet, but it has acidity and umami.
It is a delicious sake.
The annual summer vacation is a reward for myself and my wife who work hard every day... a trip to Minami-Boso for drinking and eating! We bought a bottle of Miyamanishiki at the Iwase Sake Brewery... 240-hardness brewing water... The taste of the rice is delicious, and the acidity is sharp! The sake from Oyado 🍶 and the fish from Minami-Boso 🐟 (snacks)...every time I think about it, the fried Boshu shrimps 🦞 and the assorted local fish sashimi...the perfect marriage♪ This is why I come back every year...and I'll come back again...and again...and again... I'm sure I'll end up coming back.......
Good evening, brother!
This looks so delicious!
It's exactly the form of a binge eating journey - if I don't do it now, when will I do it? It looks like a form of binge eating 🤤!
I love this enchanting couple's trip that makes me want to go back every year 🤗.
Jay & Nobby Good evening 😃Fish 🐟 is freshness! I feel it every time...local fish and local sake! We enjoyed the best marriage. Let's work hard tomorrow to come back again.
Good evening, ma-ki 😃I visit this place every year, but I couldn't eat enough, so this time I went without lunch! I couldn't finish all the sake and snacks 🍶 but the local sake and fish are delicious 😋 I'll be back again 😋.
I got the one I wanted to drink but couldn't get because of the bottle design: ❗️
I was a bit scared that it might be a bit gassy, but it opened easily.
No air bubbles when I poured it into a glass.
The aroma is mild but juicy. When I put it in my mouth, I felt a carbonic acid-like stimulation. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and bitterness, and is very easy to drink.
However, the alcohol content was higher than expected at 17 degrees Celsius. The product barcode is very cute in the shape of a Tokkuri. ❤️
sake brewed without addition of saccharides and no more than 120 litres of seed alcohol per tonne
Strong Yamahai! Strong habit! Full-bodied, sweet and sour. The sense of rice. And hardness of water. Whiskey taste. 84 points.
Sweet: 2.6
Dryness: 2.3
Acidity: 3.2
Hints: 2.7
This is the third sake I purchased at the Chiba Sake Brewers Association. I picked it up because I had seen the label "i240" on many sake breweries, and I thought it would be a good choice.
The label is glamorous, but the taste is raw and rather subdued, yet the sweetness and umami are well perceived and tasty. It was good as an accompaniment to sashimi or while eating cheetara. I would like to try the label one that I often see 😌.
It has a full-bodied, unique flavor, a bit like fire-aged sake, but it is a raw sake.
Is the strength of the full-bodied flavor due to the fact that it is brewed with hard water?
