2017 ice warmed and refrigerated storage.
The color and taste are completely different. I prefer the sake that is kept refrigerated and has a yellowish color with a strong rice taste.
At a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant.
To be honest, I didn't have much choice and didn't expect much, but I was surprised by the delicious sake, which is very refreshing, has a moderate sake feel & sweetness: ‼️
It was quite to my liking, so next time I want to drink it slowly at home. ‼️
I bought a bottle of "Kamotsuru", a pure rice sake made in Saijo, Hiroshima, at a supermarket for around 900 yen without tax.
It seemed to be recommended to drink it chilled, but I wanted to taste the flavor of the rice, so I drank it at room temperature.
It is slightly dry, but has a ripe melon-like aroma that could be described as ginjo. The rice is from Hiroshima Prefecture, but the variety is unknown. The aftertaste is short, so it may be rice rice.
It is 65% polished rice, but if the sake is this beautiful, it could be 70!
Anyway, a cosy bottle. Recommended!
I bought this Kamotsuru cold brew junmai sake at the supermarket on the way home from my Pilates class. I really wanted to go to the liquor store in the next city, but I was afraid of snow.
It was a little dry, and as the label said, it was spicy when drunk chilled. But it has a lingering aftertaste that makes you think the water is delicious. The recommended drinking style is chilled and lukewarm at room temperature, so I drank it cold for two sips and then lukewarm. It's spicy, but it tastes sweet and tasty and warms you up.
It was a good way to get rid of the feeling that I hadn't had enough to drink last night.
