Sake is infused with carbonic acid to make it sparkling.
I don't think sake and carbonation go well together.
Carbonation is delicious when it is naturally fizzed in the bottle, like unfiltered raw sake, to the point of being tangy on the tongue.
On my way back from a business trip to North Kanto ✋🏻, I got off at a great restaurant for the first time in a long time💦.
It's a brand they didn't have before, but it's dry and a little alcohol stings a bit.
At Andou Sake Shop.
Mr. Ando is famous for Kumanbachi and Biwamin.
I have never bought sake because I don't have much taste for sake...
But
What's that?
Amedare... and Hikouichi.
My repertoire has been growing.
The limited edition sake that came in this time...
Junodai, and it's under 2,000 yen!
I couldn't help but buy it.
I bought it last week and opened the bottle.
The aroma is fruity.
However, when you put it in your mouth, it is light and dry...
It is not...
Light and light taste❗️(°▽°)
It's like a dish made with...
The more you drink it, the stronger the alcohol taste is.
That's all for tonight.
Maybe tomorrow it will change...
The second day after opening the bottle, I said it was light, light and light...
But the taste is now well developed.
The alcohol taste is still strong.
The bitterness in the aftertaste is also stronger.
This is not my favorite.
Ichidai Yayama Sparkling
11-12% 375ml 990yen
I bought Yayama because I wanted to bring a small sparkling sake as a souvenir. Of course, I also bought one for myself.
Opened the bottle. A pleasant psshhhh sound.
I think sparkling sake is often made sweet, but this one is much drier. There is almost no umami or sweetness, and the finish is dry. The aroma is slightly muscat-like.
For a moment, I thought it tasted a bit bland, perhaps because I like sake with a strong flavor. However, I like soda that is not sweet, so I switched my mind to that and tasted it through my throat.
The sake is junmai (pure rice), but since it is carbonated, it is not labeled as junmai sake.
Of course, a glass of wine is recommended. It is good with all kinds of dishes from sashimi to yakiniku (grilled meat).
Chugoku Brewery has changed its name to Sakurao Brewery and Distillery from 2021.

Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-Genshu, Polishing ratio 50%, ALC15
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
2021 Company name changed to Sakrao B&D (Sakrao Brewery and Distillery) was confirmed on the official online website.
The aroma is subtle, and the sake has a waist-sitting flavor with the light shuwiness of a draft sake.

The slightly tangy and spicy taste is followed by a concentrated flavor.
It seems to go well with sushi and sashimi.
It is so refreshing that I drank two gou of it already. Be careful not to drink too much. (^^)

🦪Ichidai Yayama Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-Nagara Sake🦪.
I've had a few different kinds of Hiroshima sake.
This is my first time to try this sake 😙.
Smooth and smooth on the palate.
The delicious taste of rice spreads roundly in the mouth🙆🏼♀️.
Fuller impression than expected
But the aftertaste is clean and crisp.
The deliciousness of the rice goes down your throat with a swoosh.
It's a daiginjo, but it's refreshing.
But it's also very drinkable.
And it's priced at 1,700 yen!
Perfect as a food wine!

<Slightly sweet, tender and soft.
The aroma is just a hint of soft sweetness of rice.
In the mouth, hmm? Water?
It is that clear. Then, the soft sweetness and umami of the rice spreads gradually. It is so gentle.
It disappears without any assertion. The taste is very gentle and light. But it is not at all insufficient. It's delicious.

If I were to compare it to Ghibli, I would compare it to Dora from "The Witch's Delivery Service. She is the old woman who comes to buy the medicine Kiki's mother makes at the beginning of the film. She also appears in the ending when she reads Kiki's letter. She is a very kind old lady.
Satisfaction: ★★★★
*I will post the full version on my blog, supplemented with character images, etc. If you like, please search for "korune sake" or visit us from the link in the profile section.
They use "momiji yeast" developed in Hiroshima, which is characterized by its smoothness.
Grain-like aroma with a hint of Kyoho grapes, very good balance.
The mouthfeel is thick and silky smooth.
The sweetness of the Kyoho grapes, which is not too floral, spreads softly, and the gradual flavor is perfect.
But it's so smooth on the palate, it's wonderful.
An attractive bottle that makes you want to drink it all the time. Delicious!
Thanks again for your hard work today.
It has a sexy, calm apple aroma with a mild sweetness and umami. There is almost no alcohol, and a faint hint of rice powder.
I would say that it is characterized by its lack of character. It is relaxing.
I feel like being told, "Don't review, enjoy the sake in front of you." lol
I would like to pair it with a soy sauce based hormone hot pot.
Thanks for the treat.
It has a banana-type aroma.
The sweetness is strong, followed by a slight bitterness and disappears.
There is a slight sweet aftertaste.
The acidity is not so strong, so it can be an aperitif or an aperitif.
I would pair it with an after-dinner dessert.
