A souvenir from Kurashiki. We had it with seasonal bamboo shoots.
Juhachimori Omachi Junmai
18Mori Sake Brewery (Kojima, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture)
My sake master brought it to me at the Hanami 🌸 banquet.
It is a gem. 😆
I remember him saying before that he didn't remember drinking much sake from Okayama.
I was so grateful that he brought it all the way here.

It was a Daiginjo-style sake with gentle acidity, sweetness, and umami in harmony, unlike Tenmei's acidity.

Today we had a Junmai Daiginjo from Juhachimori. The aroma is fruity and the mouth has a gorgeous daiginjo aroma, with a slight sourness and a strong richness in the finish. I grilled hokke for dinner, and it went very well with it.
A glass at the local products corner at the Mizushima Port Seminar in Tokyo 🍻 Super refreshing and certainly goes well with blue cheese. But since there were no snacks, it didn't really hit the spot today. Timing is important.
This is also a repeat of Juhachimori Asahi.
Fruity and umami flavor.
The quality of the sake seems firmer than last year, but this may be due to the mood of the sake rice.
The taste is still good, and I would like to buy it again next year!
This is my first time to try 18 Mori. I am always excited to try new brands!
The moment I put it in my mouth, I thought it would have a nice daiginjo aroma and a beautiful mouthfeel, but it has a more acidic flavor with a hint of gasiness that is delicious 😆 I love this! It's very drinkable!
Thank you very much for the drink 😊.
Like apples!
It's like an apple!
Anyway, it's fruity and sweet.
But it's not only sweet, the aftertaste is a little bitter, or it has a strong sake taste.
I heard that the taste changes when it is exposed to air, so I will enjoy the change for a while!
I haven't had a Yongbottle for a while, so it's been a while since I've had a chance to drink it again.
Sake is the best after all! I'm looking forward to a lifetime of drinking sake with you.
