Keitora" @1 person drink
499 yen 180ml
Morohashi Shuzo, the brewer of Echino Kagetora, was established in 1847 and has been brewing sake in Nagaoka City (formerly Tochio City), Niigata Prefecture, for about 160 years. The sake name "Echino Katora" comes from the name of a famous Echigo warlord, Uesugi Kenshin, who spent his youth in Tochio and took the name "Nagao Katora" at that time. Echino Katora is brewed using water from the Morinomori Spring, selected as one of the 100 best waters in Japan, and water from a side well dug on the brewery's property. Koshino Kagera is characterized by its dry taste.
Unclear after a long time
I wanted to drink nigori, so I chose a brand I've never had before, but it has a strong name.
Delicious 🍶✨This is my favorite one 🍶✨.
Dry! The umami is amazing.
Although I like sweet wine, this dry wine stings!
It goes well with sashimi!
Maybe it's because it's made with freshly squeezed sake that it tastes so good. I want to try others.
I recently purchased a bottle at the liquor store, just for the heck of it.
I remembered this brand because my father used to drink it a long time ago. At that time, it was a classic sake as we know it now. And it was also my first time to try a bottle of nama sake. Now, how does it taste?
First, let's start with the opening of the bottle. Well, I thought in my heart that there were no bubbles.
Then, when I put it in my mouth, I was surprised. The sweetness was more pronounced than I had imagined.
My mind was a little confused.
I was surprised at the fruity aroma in the nose. However, from the middle stage, the spiciness comes through and it has a nice sharpness.
However, the sweetness remains on the lips until the end, which is hard to tell since it is freshly pressed. It may be that the brewing process has been changed to be a little more modern.
It is quite a good bottle.
This is my second Keitora, I think.
It says "active sake" on the bottle, and there is a hole in the lid. I thought it would be difficult to open the bottle, but I was able to open it without any problems at all.
First, the supernatant. Hmmm, hmm? It is quite dry!
Even after mixing and stirring, this is quite, expected.
Although it thickens and you drink it, it tastes dry.
You did it, didn't you?
I was beaten... The alcohol content must have been high..,
