The moment it enters the mouth, the acidity spreads and leaves the nose, creating a pleasant sensation.
It has a mature and powerful flavor, so you can drink it with fatty food and not be defeated.
Cold Sake ★★★
The color, aroma, and taste of this junmai sake are all wine-like. It has a refreshing impression and a strong acidity that lingers in the aftertaste. No bitterness or sweetness. The taste is too much like wine, so it did not suit me as a non-wine drinker.
Tsuruga souvenir (for myself 😆)
One of a set of 4 bottles I bought at a liquor store. Four heavenly kings?
It's a very plain one! Fukui" was on the package, but what are you talking about? Fukui is not sober at all! (my own comparison).
Anyway, I'll start with a cold sake 😙🍶💕!
Aroma that seems to have a complex flavor.
The mouthfeel is smooth and easy to drink, and the acidity comes through.
The taste is a little bit sweet and lingers on the back of the tongue.
The bitterness is definitely noticeable, but once it passes through, it becomes a nice accent.
I think it would be a good sake to drink with something.
I had it with meatballs with sweet and sour sauce (which I wanted to try), but I think it would be a good sake for Chinese dishes, hors d'oeuvres, fatty food, etc. I would like to try the other half with warmed sake.
I'm going to try heating up the other half....
Wait a while. (I'll wait a while....
So, my impression after heating it up.
Mmmm! This is delicious. ☺️
The acidity is rounded out and the umami is soft yet thick and happy 💕.
It was a delicious sake with a delicious flavor that will keep you happy for a long time, just like the phrase "May your happiness continue for a thousand years.
The mouthfeel is light with a sense of maturity in its umami and acidity.
It has a strong flavor followed by an acidic aftertaste that will allow you to enjoy it with strong dishes without losing out.
We tasted it and it was delicious.
It is a junmai wine, so it really is like a white wine.
When the bottle was opened, it had a strong acidity, but on the second and third days, it gradually lost its edge and mellowed out, making it even more enjoyable 🍸✨.
This sake is from Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture.
A brewery that strikes an ambitious approach one after another.
The chic fish label. It is said to be a sake that goes well with mackerel.
Today, there was no good grilled mackerel, so I greeted it with canned mackerel boiled in water, tuna, and bonito sashimi!
The spiciness is strong and penetrating.
The sweetness comes immediately, full of richness and with a strong flowery aroma. The core is strong with a strong sweetness.
The sweetness takes on the greenish smell of the blue fish, and the strong aroma and spiciness make the flavor of the snacks go down smoothly. The aroma that comes after the flavor has been washed away is a nice touch. The strong flavor of the fish is cut by the sake.
The second sip of the second cup of sake, the strength of the sake becomes limpid and the freshness washes your mouth.
How about when it is warmed up?
Lactic acidity rises. The spiciness rises to accompany the acidity. The spiciness is backed by the acidity.
The spiciness is like a caress and wrapping around the taste of the fish. Then, it disappears softly.
Both cold and warmed, the approach to the fish shows a completely different face. Very interesting (in the style of Mr. Fukuyama, not Master Zakoshi).
