There are many sake brands from Fukuoka Prefecture, but today we will introduce another brand from the Shiraito Sake Brewery, famous for its famous Tanaka Rokugo, also known as Shiraito! It is a locally produced, locally consumed sake that you can only find in Fukuoka Prefecture.
So we opened the bottle! The top aroma is rather subdued, but there is a hint of citrus flavor. In the mouth, the refreshing sweetness spreads like citrus juice. It tastes like grapefruit. When you swallow it, you can feel the refreshing acidity flowing down smoothly and cleanly. The aftertaste is refreshing! It has no lingering aftertaste, so it's the kind of easy drinking that you can just gobble up. 😆Today I'm having it with bonito sashimi, and it goes great with the garlicky bonito. ☺️ Personally, I think I prefer this one to the Tanaka Rokuugo I had the other day.
I think I prefer this one to the Tanaka Rokugo I had the other day! Highly recommended!
Thanks again for the great sake we had today ✨Thank you for the food!
Good evening, Ankake.
I'm very interested to see your review and it looks very tasty 🎵.
The label is chic and cool too: ⤴️
I will make a note of it and seek it out if I ever get to Fukuoka 😊.
Thank you for your comment, ma-ki! I'm glad if you could feel the taste of this sake even a little bit. ☺️ This time it was junmai sake, but the special junmai sake we drank there was also delicious, so please try to compare them too 😆.
This is Shiraito's first hiyaoroshi.
It has a gorgeous aroma, but when you drink it, it seems calm. It is great as a food sake, and also great on its own.
