Second in the Kyushu series. The first one was easy to drink and I'm on my second bottle. 😅Now we are going to compare the taste of Oumachi. I'm not sure if it's a good one or not 🌾.
The color is slightly yellowish. The aroma is sweet and fruity, unlike the image on the label. The impact in the mouth is not strong, but the mild sweetness and umami gradually spread in the mouth. There is a slight bitterness at the end.
Serve with broiled eel. The full-bodied flavor gives the image of eating it with rice. If you put sansho (Japanese pepper) on it, the fresh "Mae" goes better with it. If you don't put sansho, you can feel the characteristics of Oumachi of Matsuura Ichi and drink it deliciously. 😁

I found this place when I was wandering home after a night of drinking at a wine bar.
I found this store when I was wandering back home after drinking at a wine bar.
I'm sure I'll go there again.
The label is so cute!
I thought it would be the sake that my father would like.
But it's really delicious!
I took the liberty of calling it the Saga Series.
Sake from Saga Prefecture came out after this!
Matsuura Ichi Junmai Sake, both from Saga rice.
This one is Arita rice.
The impression is that the rice has a strong flavor. It disappears without a hitch.
Today I went to buy soy sauce that my late grandmother and my late mother used for the first time in 15 years 😁.
At the sales office, I said, "They used to deliver to my parents' house until about 15 years ago, but I don't know the brand my mother used" and they asked me the name.
When I answered, they went to the trouble of pulling out their old ledgers to find it for me 😭.
Thankfully, I found what my mother used to use and bought it!
I tasted it with chilled tofu for now...
Oh, this taste! I almost cried because I missed it so much (lol).
One thing I found out is that my mother wasn't a good cook.
but the base soy sauce was delicious 😂.
Oops, main topic!
I tried to pickle plum wine with Matsuuraichi's sake for fruit wine!
I was told that if you pickle with fully ripe plums that have turned yellow
I heard that it becomes mellow and mild.
I'm looking forward to the finished product!
And the second one is today's harvest!
This is the first time I saw a real Koei chrysanthemum!
The twilight orange was the last one, so I was quite happy!
The third one is soy sauce!
Good evening, Tsuyodai!
I know what you mean about the soy sauce being good 😆 I order soy sauce from Aomori all the way from Japan.
I have never made plum wine with fully ripened plums, but it is good⁉️.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 😄 Soy sauce is important! I've never had it either, but I heard that it tastes good when made with fully ripened soy sauce, so I gave it a try.
Good evening, Tsuyodai-san 🌇.
Everyone is particular about soy sauce and miso.
But today I ate sashimi with sweet soy sauce from Kyushu and it wasn't good enough💦.
Taste disorder⁉️
Good morning, Tsuyodai-san!
Every year I pick up plums from the shrine and let the young ones pickle 🤣 for the local plum wine.
If they are fully ripe, you can make ume jam with nectar of ume 🎵
Good morning, Tsuyodai 😊☔.
Those are big, nice plums! I used to make the fully ripe ones into pickled plums, but they are also good in plum wine 😳.
Did your gums feel ok afterwards?
tkmts Good evening ☺️Umeshu (plum wine) is easy to make ✨In fact, I also pickle Chinese cabbage and kimchi, which I inherited from my grandmother and mother 😉 I'm not good at reducing salt 😡.
Saga Prefecture. Imari City. Matsuura Ichi Sake Brewery Co.
Matsuuraichi Junmai Ginjo Nama Omachi Limited Sake
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Rice used: 100% Omachi
Polishing ratio:50%.
Alcohol content: 17
I bought this sake at a liquor store in Saga without much expectation because it was recommended by the owner of the store.
I heard it's popularity is exploding in a roundabout way... 😅
I will drink it cold.
When I opened the bottle and poured it into the glass, I felt a little microbubbles.
The nose has a magic ink aroma and a rich grain aroma in the background.
It has a rich, thick texture with a gentle acidity that moistens the tongue, followed by a dense, honey-like richness and sweetness that rushes in.
Fresh because it's a fresh sake✨.
Oh, this richness is so good 😋.
This is totally different from the Matsuura Ichi Junmai I had before ❗❗❗
It doesn't have the classic feel at all ❗❗❗
Is it the classic feeling of feeling the full flavor of rice?
No, it seems to be a characteristic of Omachi.
The acidity and sweetness are impressive, so it seems to be a modern type.
There is also a bitterness that lingers on the tongue at the end.
When the temperature rises a little, there is a tingling stimulation, umami, and bitterness. You can also taste a solid umami and bitterness.
This is totally different from the impression on the label 🤣.
Do you have any recommendations for Saga sake using Omachi rice?
I immediately answer, "Matsuura Ichi.
It's a tourist brewery famous for its kappa mummies ✨.
#Matsuuraichi #Matsuuraichi Sake Brewery
I'm going to open the bottle right away!
Nice sound! It's so exciting 😁.
The aroma is fruity, reminiscent of pears!
When you put it in your mouth, the mellow flavor of rice fills your mouth
It's so juicy 😭. It is so juicy 😭.
And then, the alcohol taste that leaves your nose.
This is the mellow, umakuchi sake I have been craving recently.
As expected of Matsuura Ichi.
The other day, a friend of mine gave me a bluefin squid he caught.
I served it with sashimi and grilled geso.
It was a great dinner 😊.
I love Matsuuraichi 😭
Hi Rumion 🙋♀️
I thought I'd welcome you and your dragons here too, but it's raw sake 😳.
It's a luxury to have a good sake with a bluefin squid as a snack 😋.
The salted squid from Yobuko is also great👍✨
Good evening, Chidori-san 🌆.
Matsuura Ichi's Omachi is the best. It's great even if it's not a draft sake! The squid from Yobuko is great 😊I found a good snack and sake store in Karatsu!
I'll bring a cooler box, just for the heck of it! LOL!
Karatsu has a magnificent fireworks display ✨.
I'll try the place Rumion recommended 😋.
It's been a while, but Fisherman's Diner in Takeo also has great sake and fish 😊.
Chidori-san, is that my recommendation! I don't know where you mean 😭 I'm embarrassed to say I've never heard of Fisherman's Diner in Takeo 💦 I'll check it out!
Hello, staggered feet!
You must be Guild! Please note that we are a standing bar near Motoyu and only open on Fridays and Saturdays 💦Check out our store page if you are on Instagram 😁.
Good morning, Rumion 😃.
Sorry I'm late 🙏💦.
I guess you two are inside since your business card says manufacturing department 👥I'm surprised that Mitsutake has a Tokyo branch 🫢.
Good evening, Chidori-san 🌆.
I know you from Mitsutake Brewery! That's great😁.
I've never heard of the Tokyo branch 💦 Is the Fist of the North Star collaboration still popular?
Good morning, Rumion 😃.
Fist of the North Star🤔... 💡 shochu ❣️
So I guess that's why you were pouting when I talked about whimsical dragons😅.
I think Fist of the North Star is very popular ✨
Good morning, staggered feet!
I'm shocked you don't know about Capricious Dragon🐲😅Is it regional?
Fist of the North Star and Invitation to the Demon World shochu are also delicious 😊.
