Shiga Sake Festival in Otsu 2023⑧.
■Seko Sake Brewery / "Ninja" "Daikoka" Koka City, Shiga Prefecture
Since 1869, the brewery has focused on local rice and pure sake.
Toshiyuki Ueno, the fifth-generation brewer, has taken over the Seko Sake Brewery from his wife Atsuko's family.
We were told to try the junmai ginjo and compared different rice varieties. We also tasted a few others.
Junmai Ginjyo Ginbuki Unfinished Nama Sake] Overall, it has a gentle sweetness and umami, with a bit of sourness.
Ninja PLUS+ Tamae Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Unrefined Nama-shu
The aroma is sweet, but when I drank it, I found the clear and refreshing sweetness to be delicious and to my liking.
Ninja neo Junmai Ginjyo Miyamanishiki Unfiltered Nama-Genshu
It was the richest, but the acidity was a bit strong.
Atsuhime 5-year-old sake
The taste is mild and easy to drink, although it is a bit aged.
Ninja Junmai Daiginjo l'amour
Surprisingly sour and mildly full-bodied.
I wanted to drink "NEO Junmai Ginjyo Nama Gohyakumangoku," which won the Platinum Award at the 2019 KURA MASTER, but unfortunately they didn't bring it.
The flavor is concentrated and sweet. The acidity is moderately restrained and the weight, which is typical of sake, is not unpleasant, but the sake has a high level of complexity.
The aftertaste is also good.
Is it because it's Las 1? I was attracted by the discount price of 1,000 yen and the name, so I bought it.
It is unfiltered, so I took it cold.
It is colored. It has a color like a whiskey water mix.
Beef giblets simmered in soy sauce, okra salad, beef lean steak, thick fried bean curd, and jerky,
beef steak, thick fried bean curd stew, jerky
We had it with rather light dishes.
I thought the jerky was the best.
It is a little bit peculiar, so I have the impression that it goes better with fried food than with light dishes such as sashimi.
I have the impression that it goes better with deep-fried food than light dishes such as sashimi.
Thank you very much,
The photo shows the sake in the middle bottle.
It smells like a Hineka, but when you drink it, it is very tasty with a mellow, umami taste that embraces the peculiar Hineka in a well-balanced way. I like it. I like it.
Purchased at a local liquor store.
It has a high alcohol content of 18% and is gutsy but also juicy.
It is powerful and goes well with yakiniku (grilled meat).
