Trophies of Hiroshima trip. Original Yamatoya Sakepo.
I bought this Junmai Daiginjo because it was served at the G7 Hiroshima Summit.
I like the clean crispness from the beautiful pineapple flavor 🍍.
I would like to visit the apartment at the original store.
I was told that the combination with oysters was the best, so I asked for it. The combination with the oysters was GOOD, not so much sake flavor, more like wine.
Calm taste!
Sweetness is strong and round!
Spicy at the same time, with a lingering roundness and a calm spiciness!
It is fluffy and fruity, but not at all assertive!
I can't help but feel it's lacking 🤔.
The sake shop recommended me to try the nama-shu, so I want to try the nama-shu next time!
On a trip to Hiroshima, I chose something that is not often seen outside of the prefecture for drinking at home.
The brewery is located in the basement of a building in the city and is run by a single brewer and toji (master brewer), so the production is small and precious. The sake is made from Hiroshima rice and water.
I have never had any other Horaizuru sake, so I cannot compare it to this one, but it is fruity and easy to drink.
In Hiroshima, the destination of my trip.
Following lunch, the restaurant I was looking for was full and I couldn't get in at night 🫢.
The restaurant I had guessed at was full every time 😭.
But I found a very nice sake bar 🍸✨.
Before this, I stopped by Yamatoya, a sake shop, and bought some Hiroshima sake, but they recommended a sake that they make originally from Yamatoya that they said was fruity, so I gave it a try.
Lately, a lot of liquor stores are making original sake, but as expected, they are making delicious and easy to drink for everyone. ❗️
This one also has a soft sweet aroma 🐽 when you put your mouth to the glass.
It was fresh and fresh and easy to drink.
Yup, delicious✨
Daiginjo-shu made from "Senbon-Nishiki" sake rice from Hiroshima, a famous sake brewing area.
It is light and light on the palate, and the word "pleasant" fits it perfectly, but be careful not to drink too much, as the alcohol content is high at 17%.
The last of the Hiroshima local sake to be consumed is Horaizuru, brewed in the center of Hiroshima.
It has a sweet and gorgeous aroma.
On the other hand, the taste is light and refreshing.
It is a sake with no peculiarities that can be paired with any food while enjoying its fragrance.
It is a winter favorite, and we enjoyed it with oden.
