50% polished rice
The taste is still very old-fashioned, but the sweetness and umami are strong and refreshing.
The aroma is quite weak, yet the taste is strong in the mouth. But it is not too strong.
I love it because I can drink it as much as I want.
Purchased at the Nohmi Sake Shop for 2,350 yen. I told the owner that the price had gone up from last year, but he said it was because the price of rice had gone up. The price increase affects us here too (tears).
As usual, the sake is light, easy to drink, and fruity. I immediately split it into two four-pack bottles and kept one in the fridge for regular use and the other outside in the storage room to be opened in March. The last time I had it, I let it sit too long and it lost its flavor.
I have been away from sake lately, but when I saw this at the supermarket, I had to buy it. I was about to buy it, but then, oh no, it was gone!
I cannot helpgetting MOROHAKU!
So I drove to my familiar shop, Nomi Sake Shop!
Rice that spreads softly on the palate.
Mellow mid- to aftertaste.
There is no sharpness, but a smooth texture.
Positively simple and refined sake.
It has no habits.
Last week at Yamazaki Shop Usami in Kitaibaraki
This year I got four of them.
Every year, I receive four bottles of sake from Usami-san while visiting the graves.
I have been receiving this sake from Usami-san while visiting the graves.
This year's results were...
First the supernatant...
No shots, a marriage of spiciness and acidity
Mazemaze... explosion in the middle 🤣.
Nice fizziness, good acidity and play in the mouth
Moromi feeling...this year again did not betray my expectations!
A very beautiful sake 🍶.
There was a lot going on...let's get drunk and forget about it (lol)
After a successful physical checkup, the first drink in three days was Morohaku from Tomikushin!
I look forward to drinking it every year!
I am concerned that it looks the same as the Valium I drank during the day.
When I pour it into a glass, sometimes solid matter comes out.
Fresh aroma with hints of pear and lafrance
Cookie-like sweetness and texture
Thick and thick texture.
Surprisingly refreshing aftertaste thanks to moderate acidity
It is good this year, too!
Good evening, bap 😃.
Thanks for the physical exam 😌.
Valium drink 😆 Sludgy drink for a refreshed body! Interesting that you can drink it clear though 🤗.
It was a sake with a Sake meter of +2, but it had a sweet and umami taste, and was also refreshing. It happened to be a perfect match for fried oysters with tartar sauce at this time of the year.
The name "Tomikyushin" was derived from "Tomizo" of Tomizo I, "Hisa" of Wakuri, the mother of Shigenao IV, and most importantly, "Kokoro" or "heart".
It has a gorgeous heady aroma as soon as it is opened, cemedine aroma from the glass, and a full-bodied, umami sweetness. The aftertaste is a bit hard, with a hint of sakekasu (sake lees). Legs are few and weak, but long.
It is a sake that makes you drink.
Special Junmai Sake Kura-Nama
Sake rice: Hitanishiki produced in Ibaraki
Yeast: Hitachi yeast
Rice polishing: 55
Alcohol: 16% abv.
Purchased at the souvenir shop at Hitachi Station during a business trip to Hitachi.
Ibaraki Prefecture has a surprisingly large number of sake breweries.
The flavor has a slightly subdued, clean rice aroma.
It has a freshness typical of nama-zake, and since it is not so assertive, it seems to go well with anything as a mid-meal drink.
I purchased the light nigori of 2024, the light nigori of Fukushin, which is shipped every spring, at this time of year when the rainy season is about to begin.
It has a full and deep flavor. It has a slightly fruity expression, but the "arashibari" effect and the alcohol content of 16% must be responsible for the rich and powerful flavor!
Again this year, we went to the Cherry Blossom Festival in Hitachi.
The cherry blossoms were only half in bloom, but the weather was mild and there were many visitors.
I enjoyed cherry blossom viewing with Fukushin Sakura Ginjo as usual.
Yesterday's TV program introduced Miyamanishiki Jungin Nama-zake from Fukushin.
but this time of the year, Sakura Ginjo is the best!
50% Yamadanishiki polished rice Arabashiri is fresh and fruity!
Gentle sweetness and mellow mouthfeel
The bitterness that is typical of new sake finishes it off.
Sip it while admiring the cherry blossoms!
For the first time in five years, the "Hitachi Fuyuremono" float was also on display.
I'm glad to see that the festival has finally returned to its full glory!
100% Hitanishiki
Polishing ratio 55
Alcohol content: 17° to 18
Acidity 1.5
Sake meter degree +4
The aroma is subdued. It is slightly colored and spicy, with a strong alcohol taste coming out through the nose.
Unlike regular Fukushin, this sake is specially ordered by a liquor store in the same city as the brewery, and this was the first time I had it ✨.
I thought it might not be my favorite 😅 at first sip, but when I paired it with a salty or oily meal, it was very nice and sharp👍
