I was drinking this year's newest drunken whale sake twice!
The label of Drunken Whale is a little unfamiliar to me.
You had it a year and a half ago at this restaurant.
When I was working in Shikoku, I used to drink this sake a lot!
I'm still interested in this brand.
Tuna fatty tuna with a crispy, spicy and tasty sake.
I knew it would go well with it!

I'm not a fan of it, but dry? I thought it was drinkable for a dry wine.
I'll have it with smoked oysters.
I think it would be better with raw oysters instead of smoked oysters.
Hokkaido sake brewing rice Ginpu.
It was drunk lightly chilled, but it was delicious with just the right amount of stickiness and moistness.
It is not too dry, but not too sweet and easy to drink.
They only sell it for two months at the end of the year.
They polish the rice to 55 per cent and use a variety of rice. That's what special junmai is all about, isn't it? It is bottled at low temperature without heating. It was a luxurious time with new sake. I finished it before I could think about how it tasted.
I checked online to see how they are making rice for such a delicious sake.
Drunken Whale has been making their own rice since 2018. In 2022, they will start making sake using their own rice.
Since this special junmai sake will not be made with rice grown in their own fields, we look forward to another encounter.
Purchased at liquor store in front of Yume Town in Onga Town
Drink cold
Colorless, clear and weak
Firm ginjo aroma
Full-bodied with a sense of weight on the palate.
It does not give the impression of being aged at all.
After a while, the taste wears off quickly.
The dryness is weak.
I don't like the taste of sake after the fall season because it gives the impression of aging, but this sake has no such impression, only pure umami.
Warm it up to lukewarm.
The taste spreads further and is very good.
The taste does not become blurred even if it is heated up.
