First time for me to drink Kagiya, first time for me to drink Matsuyama Mitsui sake. It has a strong sense of maturity and a flavor that is not gorgeous but very autumnal. At Masaiseki-san
Purchased at the 4th Kitakyushu liquor store tour
It was purchased at Ura no Sake Shop in Yukuhashi.
It is my first brand.
At room temperature
Medium-bodied
Smooth but with a slightly crisp aftertaste.
There is a slight sweetness.
It is not that heavy, so it is recommended as a mid-meal drink.
It goes well with grilled fish, grilled chicken, or salad with a crisp dressing.
Recommendation! The flavor and peculiarity explodes at room temperature. When warmed up, the umami disappears more than expected and becomes a cloying taste.
Dry Junmai sake, delicious sake.
This is almost the same rote sake and has been a long time since I have posted. This sake has a mild but clean aftertaste. The entrée is a little bit of sashimi, but it seems to go with everything. I think it is the perfect sake for autumn.
It is a rich, mellow, sweet sake.
Very strong sweetness with a roundness and a very gentle sweetness.
Nutty aroma with a full-bodied and mature taste.
100% Ehime Shizukuhime, 60% polished rice
As the label says, it has a pleasantly mature flavor and a sweetness that is not too sweet.
Today's first cup has a gentle sweetness that gently soaks into a tired body.

Price: 3,025 yen (tax included)
Purchased at a key shop in Morioka.
I was attracted by the statement that it goes well with meat, so I bought it.
The first sip had a much stronger sourness than I expected.
It is a different kind of sourness from that of doburoku, which I had never tasted before, but it is pleasant!
Next, I was struck by the pungency and bitterness characteristic of sake, but this was to be expected.
This is a taste I have never tasted before, but 10 years ago, I would not have liked it.

It is a wonder that you don't feel sourness when you drink it with meat.
I am sure it goes well with hamburgers, so I'll leave it and try it tomorrow.
