The alcohol content is low, and it is believed to be very watered down.
From room temperature. It smells quite bad. When you drink it, it has a strong acidity along with umami with a little grain-based sweetness, which is quite sour, even among Tottori sake. However, the sweetness and umami are just right, or just barely not unpleasant.
High temperature is recommended, so 60°C. It does not change much, but it becomes sharp with a slight bitterness. If you add a little water, the sharpness weakens, but the sourness becomes much milder.
Although it is watered down and low in alcohol, it is still quite a strange sake. For those who like matured sake with a sour taste.
Purchased a year ago at a tasting hosted by a liquor store
Tottori Tamakae 80% polished rice, H29BY raw yeast
Dark amber color, probably aged at room temperature.
Aroma: Shaoxing wine, buckwheat tea, vanilla, gunpowder, crustaceans
Soft acidity
Completely fermented, no sweetness.
Amino acids, succinic acid, and a complex flavor that is easy to describe.
The savory aroma through the nose is intoxicating.
It is good heated, but it is also good at room temperature.
A good sake that gently sinks into your tired body due to the change in temperature.
It goes well with nukazuke (pickles), sushi, and manju (steamed buns)!
Let's buy it again this year and match it with Kakuni.
Sake with a color like mirin (sweet sake) 🍶.
It is a little peculiar, but you can taste different flavors depending on the temperature, from hot to lukewarm ✨.
The recommendation is to warm it with 30-40% water. You can enjoy the light, slightly sour but sweet taste 😆.
Friday's Sannomiya drinking (3)
The third cup of warmed sake to finish off the night at Setogari 😋.
I was told before it was served that the color of the sake was like matcha (powdered green tea) 😅 at my companion's request 😃 Unlike the impact of the sake, it seemed to be a normal and tasty sake 😃.
I forgot to take a picture but the person sitting next to me gave me a sip of Kumezakura's "Lemon D'oo" which was exactly like Lemon juice 🤣.

The brand name "Furei" is Hurrah! (Flay!) in English. In other words, "Go for it! Hurrah! which is often shouted by cheering crowds. Hurrah! It is a good omen for good luck and good fortune. It is a "cheering sake" that brings good luck and good fortune.
This sake is made by simply straining the unrefined sake through a colander.
