Finish up with a hard-to-drink swallow stone 😚.
First, check the aroma, it's gorgeous, as if concentrated and full of flavor: ✨️
When you drink it, the concentrated flavor of the rice fills your mouth. ‼️
The rice is highly polished to a 35% ratio, yet it has the strength and power of a Kaijin sake.
It is not only light and refreshing, but also has a sharp and firm acidity that tightens the umami, creating a good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity, all of which can be clearly felt.
I want to drink it slowly during the New Year's holiday!
Etsukaijin Tono Kame-no-o Yamahai Unfiltered Nama
When I poured it into a glass, thinking that it would have a classic heavy-boned and massive taste because it is an old sake, the unique, massive and complex aroma of old sake spread quickly throughout my nose 😳.
The taste is as I imagined it would be, a strong rice flavor...
It has a complex flavor like smoked fish, like natto, but it has a nice sharpness, and once you get used to it, you won't even notice the strong habit... or maybe you won't 🙄 ....
I heard it is recommended to be heated, so I will use Tanukichi to heat it up after a long time ⓿ᴥ⓿.
The aroma changed to a mellow flavor and turned into a sake that makes me want to eat oden😳
The sip of this sake has a tongue-tightening acidity, and the alcohol comes with a kick and a thud, just like a heavy-boned, heavy-duty sake should 😋.
The spiky corners have been removed so that it can be drunk roundly and softly. ☺️
It matched with Oden best 🍢.
Also changed the display in the back 😌.
The event started in the evening and I was getting a little hungry by now 😋.
We decided to drink a glass of Sanju Yumachi from Etsukaijin to go with the soba noodles sold at the kitchen car.
Yumachi suggests strength and mellow flavor. ‼️
As I expected, I was surprised by its overwhelmingly thick flavor 😳.
The rich rice flavor spreads powerfully across the palate and is mellow, yet the finish is crisp and dry 😍.
Well, I can't drink enough of this...
On such a cold night, I warm myself with Etsukaijin Junmai-shu.
It's suddenly hot. It's good, it's good. It soaks up the cold. The retro label is also nice.
This sake is three years old. Naturally, it is kept at room temperature.
It's like dried grapes, apricots, nuts, an old chest of drawers, honey lemon, moldy cheese, and all sorts of other goodness concentrated in it.
My body warmed up quickly and I took off my layers of clothes. The cold cools off and feels good.
