Purchased at Iwase Shuzo at the beginning of the year...Chiba sake brewed with "So-no-Mai" from Chiba Prefecture...open the bottle...the aroma...oh no! Sweet and fruity...a clear aroma that cannot be described...sweet and bitter with a sharp taste! Brewed with hard water, it has an excellent aftertaste... Chiba sake goes well with seafood, so we enjoy it with albacore, fried firefly squid isobe, and vinegared herring...
I had it cold.
Aroma: Little.
Taste: Dry or something.
A little spicy.
It seems to have no characteristics, but it has some.
It is a strange feeling.
Read the endorsement,
The altitude of the brewing water is 240.
I wonder if that is the reason for this strange taste.
Accompanied by Ohsho dumplings, grilled pork belly, etc.
It goes well with meals. I don't think it's a synergistic effect.
I didn't think it would interfere.
Thank you very much for the meal!
1,700 yen without tax at Oya Sake Shop in Minamirinma
Many different rice varieties are also available
It has a fresh, slightly sharp attack with a light umami flavor, accented by a faint astringent taste, and a voluptuous taste that slowly reveals itself, with a tight finish and a lingering, firm but simple fade-out. The finish is firm but fades out simply.
This is a sake to be enjoyed smartly and smoothly over the throat in a flute glass or similar glass.
The brewery uses 240 ultra-hard water as the brewing water.
It has an alcoholic flavor, followed by a refreshing acidity and a clean aftertaste.
I found it to be delicious and unique. Thank you very much for your kindness.
The last sake in Chiba was Iwanoi🍶.
Dry sake that goes well with grilled fish.
Since I live in a prefecture without a sea, I went home after looking out over Tokyo Bay. I was lucky to be able to see Mt. Fuji and the Sky Tree. I walked on the sandy beach for the first time in a while, but it felt good.
I took today off work and traveled to Boso Peninsula. (I've been getting emails and chatting myself to death.)
This is a local package purchased at a sake brewery.
It is a junmai ginjo with a strength of 14 degrees, which is easy to drink, but has the richness of junmai and a good balance of sake.
At room temperature, it has a classical taste with clear umami and sharpness, but it may be a little closed.
It has a good balance of sweet and umami of soft rice and good sharpness when heated up to 50℃. 70% polished but elegant, it would be better not to raise the temperature too high.
