KITTEOSAKA ③.
B1 Umeyoko
Standing bars and izakayas stand side by side, where many people can casually have a drink from noon!
After the Emon Nippon Meguri on the 6th floor, I was getting hungry, so I moved on.
I usually start with beer🍻, but since I was already enjoying sake, I had sake here as well!
Yamahane (Sawae), which I had often seen at the supermarket.
The sake was served in a generous portion and was a great value for the money.
The taste was perfect for a meal, with sweetness followed by spiciness, and a solid, stable flavor.
I thoroughly enjoyed KITTEOSAKA.
Rabenten appears for the first time in a long time. I wonder if this is the first appearance of Dewanosato. When the bottle is opened, it has a sweet fruit ginjo aroma. In the mouth, the sweetness is felt firmly at first, but then it is cut off sharply. A slightly bitter taste lingers in the throat. The salad with balsamic vinaigrette dressing is very nice, reducing the bitterness of the sake. The sour pickled red turnips bring out the fruitiness of the dish. The main dish is herring meuniere. The combination of this and the herring meuniere gives it a medicinal flavor. I think it is not the best match. And yet, when you take a bite of the lemon used in the dish and drink it, it is truly a fruit juice. It is refreshing, gorgeous, and delicious! The original flavor of this sake is complex, so the taste varies greatly depending on which parts are drawn out. It is a fun sake.
I just finished a 3-day/2-night job in Okinawa 🔚.
In search of Okinawan sake that I had not yet encountered
I called a liquor store that might have Reimei.
For some reason, they didn't have it.
I was ready to give up.
Let's have a light meal at the airport!
This sushi restaurant seems to have a lot of sake
I looked at the sake menu and found a section on Reimei.
But they were out of stock!
I didn't have a chance!
Then let's drink some sake that we are interested in.
This is Yamagata sake, but I didn't know that!
Delicious, good aroma, great mouthfeel!

This is a comment from an amateur sake lover. I continue to enjoy sake at my parents' house while having fish from the Seto Inland Sea (simmered water flounder, Spanish mackerel sashimi, and octopus sashimi). The sake is heavy and robust in flavor. It is heavier than my image of a refreshing Junmai Ginjo. I enjoyed it very much. I am thankful that I can enjoy delicious fish and sake again today.
Junmai sake with a rice polishing ratio of 65%.
I have a feeling that 17 degrees will turn quite well.
Not spectacular,
The aroma is honest and has no alcohol smell.
Sourness, spiciness, and a momentary bitterness in the mouth.
The taste is strong, but not sharp.
The sharpness is straightforward. The umami flavor remains. No bitterness.
A perfect score!
Delicious. Firm and tasty.
Ah, delicious.
It is more than an oddly aromatic sake,
It is a "delicious" sake with a sense of purity.
I'm going to enjoy a cup of sake with Yamagata's Omizuke.
I'm going to get drunk today.

Shinbashi Masutoku
I went on a one-day trip to Yamagata the other day😄and bought a bottle. Yamagata has a lot of good sake, but this was my first time to taste it! The aroma is gentle apple 🍎 The sweetness is moderate, but as you drink it, the umami is also very strong! The sharpness is good, and it is a beautiful sake. It is not too light, but has a good balance of umami and flavor. Delicious!
55%, 16 degrees, slightly pineapple-like? Aroma? It has a rich aroma, a full-bodied flavor (rice-like), and a clean, sharp taste, just as it should be!
