Tonight is the second Kisoji. This is a fire-aged version of a junmai sake brewed with Miyamanishiki. When the bottle is opened, the aroma is not strong, but it has a strong rice flavor. In the mouth, it has a firm sweetness, followed by bitterness and acidity. The bitterness and sourness disappear when paired with chilled tofu with shishito pepper and soy sauce. The sweetness is further intensified. After the yam strips with ume plum paste, you can taste the fullness of the rice after the sweetness. Combined with the sweetness of the homemade roast pork, the sake creates a refreshing sensation and is a good match. Kisoji is best served with a meal.
Tonight's accompaniment is this bottle brewed with Miyamanishiki. When the bottle is opened, it has a slightly organic aroma. You can also taste a little alcohol. In the mouth, there is a hint of sweetness, but it is basically dry. It also has a strong acidity and a weak gaseous taste, which is typical of summer sake. After serving Mizunasu (eggplant) with Shishito pepper soy sauce (recipe by Chef Kasahara), the acidity disappears and you can drink it without hesitation. When paired with sautéed asparagus, the sweetness is enhanced, making it a good match. The hamo (pike conger eel), which was on sale for a reasonable price, and the ume plum sauce also went well together. When paired with the bonito sashimi and tomato salad that has been making an appearance recently, the sweetness is strongly felt, and it is also delicious. I realized that even sake that I don't necessarily like on its own can change depending on the marriage.
Two brands I've never had before.
Purchased at my first liquor store😊.
I got the information about the store from a sakewa reviewer.
Part 1
I'm excited about the fresh aroma.
Light mouthfeel
Sweet and bitter from sourness
It was a challenge but I enjoyed it 😋.
I didn't leave any notes on the entrée||'ºПº'||Ha!
Good morning, Erin 😃.
I'm drinking all the good booze again: ❗️
I went back and looked at it.
I've never had Kisoji, but it's a Shinshu sake that you can't go wrong with 😁.
Haruei Chichi(ฅΦωΦ)ฅ Hello!
Just the fact that it's a sake from Shinshu makes me want to try it: ☺️
It's a past review, so I've forgotten about it and haven't put it on properly 💦.
I'll be back to the present in a little while 🏃💨
Pon-chan(ฅΦωΦ)ฅGood evening!
I bought it at my first liquor store, too, because I was curious about it when I first saw it 😊.
My image of it is that it's a beautiful sake, but they were taking notes while they were drinking it and got in the middle of it😅.
I wonder if we can drink it at Kuramoto 🤔
Mr. T.KISO (●'∇') Domodomo~!
When I saw the refrigerator in the store, I thought I had to buy it.
I see what you mean 🤣🤣🤣
I was going to buy Kouko but I ended up with Kisoji 😂.
Summer Jun. Miyamanishiki. It is mellow, but the koji derived aroma is refreshing and easy to drink. It is easy to drink with a refreshing aroma like that of young grass.
Congratulations on winning the IWC Champion Sake. I hope it will not be difficult to obtain, but it is a sake from a brewery that I hope many people will drink.
Immediately after the bottle is uncorked, there is acidity. Full of rice flavor.
Plenty of aftertaste.
Overall, not too heavy, clean and fruity.
It is delicious!
No scent.
Slightly yellowish.
Moist brewing alcohol flavor. Alcohol! It's like "Alcohol!
I don't really like this flavor, so I won't repeat it.
But it goes well with the aburadome meat tempura!
MARRIAGE!!!
One of a set of 4 bottles of Kiso Jizake
A delicious sake with a sweet finish, but with enough acidity and umami to not be unpleasant.
You can never go wrong with Kiso sake!
