Toyo no Aki - Shimane Sake for the First Time
The owner of the sake shop told me it was good warmed up.
It's getting cold, so I'm going to warm it up.
Sashimi, raw oysters, pumpkin stew
Sashimi, raw oysters, pumpkin and omelette!
As the weather cooled down, I wanted to try heating sake, so I had a cup of sake. I chose "Toyo no Aki" Tokubetsu Junmai. It is recommended to be served lukewarm, so we had it with firefly squid and maki rolls. It's a legitimate dry sake and matched well with the food. I've never been a fan of sake in a cup for a long time, but it's nice to have a cup that suits the occasion.
While it was super dry with a sake degree of +15 degrees, it was also delicious with the umami of hiyayagoshi.
It was delicious with hiyaoroshi flavor.
Next time I want to drink it as the first drink😅.
The label has a design of Koizumi Setsu and Shimaneko, who are the models for the NHK drama series "Bakebake" that is currently airing.
The sake is said to be a combination of sake rice from Shimane Prefecture, which is associated with Koizumi Yakumo and Setsu, and yeast from Kumamoto Prefecture🍶.
I saw it last month when I went to Matsue to get some groceries and brought it home 🚗.
I bought the label 😙.
I watch the drama every day and Setsu's model, Toki, is having a hard time 💦.
I also bought the label when I was in Matsue last month to pick up some groceries 😙.
Rice polishing ratio 55
16% alcohol by volume
100% Green Mai grown in Shimane Prefecture
The top aroma is not strong, but the hint of lychee-like elegant aroma expands, and the rice flavor is centered on the umami of the rice, with a moderate acidity, bitterness, and a moderate spiciness.
It is more beautiful and refreshing than the Kamisen we had the other day because it is more refined 😊.
On the second day, the curd was removed and the sweetness and mellowness came out.
Sake is deep 🤔.
Souvenir from Kami's friend who was visiting Matsue.
Souvenirs of local sake really make me happy😙.
Alcohol content 15 degrees.
Mild, grain-like aroma.
It has a full-bodied, caramel-like sweetness with a moderate acidity, and finishes with a spiciness.
Easy to drink with little bitterness or astringency.
I drank it warm, but it would also be good hot 😊.
I paired it with stewed ramen noodles, but it didn't overpower the squid, pork, quail eggs, and other ingredients, making it an easy match for a mealtime drink.
Hello, soumacho 😃.
Really! Souvenirs of local sake 🍶 are a great way to meet people who don't usually buy sake 🤗.
Sometimes it's not always a hit 😅 but that's also good 😃.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
Thank you for the gift, it's a great way to meet new local sake 😄.
Yesterday we had it in a nabe (hot pot) and it was great with this one as well👍.
One cup of 🍶 special junmai sake "Toyo no Aki".
Tonight while cheering for ACL.
The snack was a "small bowl of autumnal dishes" to accompany the Gamba Osaka player, Kurata Akira.
It's a one-cup sake, but the rice flavor is very good, making it perfect for watching the game.

This is the second of the three (premium) types of sake. As the description says, the richness of the sake becomes clear, which appropriately washes away the richness of the food, making it perfect for a mealtime drink.
