Yesterday I went to Marugame and Kintohira!
The curving beauty of the stone walls, the view from the existing castle tower overlooking the Seto Inland Sea, and the skillful construction made my heart dance from the morning ✨.
I will skip the visit to Kintohira in the next post. After visiting the shrine, we went to "Kinryo" to enjoy a healing drink (tasting)!
First, the Yamahai!
Banana aroma.
Round sweetness like banana or tropical fruits. Immediately after, there is a punch of spicy acidity, but there is no unique flavor such as a sense of maturity, and it is refreshing.
The sharpness of the astringent taste that comes in at the end of the bottle is habitually delicious👍.
Now, Hirosaki is the only existing castle tower that has not yet been visited!
I already have a plan in mind, so I hope to visit when the time is right 💪.
A cup of sake from Kinryo, a local sake brewery in Kotohira, one of our favorite sake breweries.
It was a smooth, light, dry sake with a hint of sweetness, typical of Kinryo 🍶.
It seems to be popular with everyone. 🙆♂️
Unfiltered Junmai Nama-zake Sanuki Yomai 70%, No.6 yeast, 17.5
Sweetness and refreshing acidity. It is dark but refreshing, easy to drink, and you don't feel the alcohol taste.
The aroma is moderate, and the mouthfeel is well-balanced with acidity and bitterness.
It is also delicious warmed.
