Etsukaijin Handmade Junmai Sake Yamahai Seo Rice Hi-ire R6BY
Rating 4.4
Rice used: Seo rice from Tottori Prefecture, Polishing ratio 71%, Alcohol 15-16%.
Better warmed than chilled. 56-57℃.
It has a strong sense of rice and umami.
I got this sake on a trip to Kagawa last month.
It was quite a distance from the main street of Kompira-san to the brewery 🚶.
Unfortunately, it was shuttered, so I bought it at a store in Takamatsu City.
Polishing ratio 71
Alcohol content is between 15 and 16 degrees Celsius.
Seo rice produced in Tottori Prefecture is used.
The owner of the brewery told us that he had never heard of Seo rice, but it seems to be the name of the producer and for some reason he is unable to disclose the name of the variety 🤔.
I was also worried about Akaban Omachi and Oseto, and although they are fire-brewed, I took this one home 👍.
First, I drank it cold.
The aroma has a graininess typical of junmai sake, and the rice flavor is rich and mellow. The strong acidity tightens it up and the spiciness gives it a sharp kick.
This is the royal road to junmai sake ✨.
When heated, it has a tingling sensation with an astringent taste that is also delicious. Of course, the sharpness is good too 😊.
The first snow ❄ was observed in Hiroshima and it was cold, so we ordered okonomiyaki to go.
The sweetness of the sauce was more harmonious and delicious.
I also paired it with soy beans, a local dish from Sanuki, and the sweetness of the soy beans was well wrapped up in the kaijin, making it a perfect dish 😋.
Good evening, soumacho.
My friend in Kagawa said that Etsukaijin is delicious. I would love to drink this sake. Okonomiyaki and sake go well together 🎵.
Hi Shimaho_Ke 😃
Kaijin-san, it's more of a stallion than an acidic main body, which makes it addictive.
If you like dry junmai sake, you should definitely try it 😋.
Okonomiyaki really makes sake go down a treat 😊.
Good morning, soumacho!
I see you have brought home many different kinds of sake 🎵.
I drank Etsukaijin for the first time the other day and it was heated up and I remember it was delicious and tasty 😋.
I remember it was delicious and tasty It's getting colder all the time, so you need to keep warm with food and sake 😁.
I thought about saving it until New Year's, but decided against it.
Jacket price... 8/10
Red label + clear bottle is rare.
Hue ... 13/20
The hue is almost colorless. The smell is only a hint of rice aroma, and the mouthfeel is pleasant, but it lacks richness.
Sei... 11/20
The taste converges at the tip of the tongue, and it is regrettable that the Alc attack + acidity + umami only approach the tip of the tongue.
Rolling... 11/20
Only acidity remains on the tip of the tongue, and it burns. bitterness appears on both ends of the tongue, but it lacks weight. the sublimated smell of rice comes in a whiff, but it is not Omachi.
Yui ... 10/20
The expected heaviness is not realized.
COSPA... 3/10
The price is too heavy for the taste....
I didn't feel any Omachi in the end...my fault for not letting it sit...⁇
I didn't feel any Omachi in the end... I guess it's my fault for not letting it sit...
56 points
I licked the vinegar and drank it, but it was different......the best flavor comes out when the tongue is in a neutral state.
I guess you can warm it up, but the umami is dead......room temperature is the best.
Slightly overpriced for this restaurant.
Warmed.
The alcohol and aroma rise gently.
It has a slight citrus flavor with a hint of rice flavor.
Surprisingly acidic. Light texture.
No showiness, but a simple taste.
It is a cozy type of food sake.
Taste 4/5
