Since we wanted to drink sake from Saga Prefecture, the third bottle was Matsuura Ichi red label, junmai sake. We had this one heated up as well.
With a rice polishing ratio of 70%, it had a little body.
I got the impression that the flavor would increase if the sake was aged, and it was drier than I expected.
It was drier than I expected. This is the kind of robust sake I like to drink slowly.
My favorite sagas are the humble sakes. Toichi, Tenzan, and Matsuuraichi.
This junmai sake is really an orthodox, traditional sake with no characteristics.
The world is in the mood for GW.
I had a cup of sake with sweet mackerel miso and a cup of hot water.
The fact that they can go right to the middle of the traditional sake is a sign that they have absolute confidence in their sake.
Delicious.
A clear and gorgeous ginjo aroma reminiscent of pineapple.
The smooth mouthfeel is followed by a hint of gas that stimulates the tongue, and then the juicy rice flavor and sweetness spreads, and the taste finishes slightly dry with a touch of bitterness.
I have a feeling that the flavor will become rounder as the bottle is opened.
