This is my first time in Tsuneyama.
It is dry but has a touch of sweetness.
But the sweetness is not too much, and the flavor is clean and refreshing.
It was a good sake with a gaseous taste that I like even after 2 weeks 👍👍👍👍.

crisp ✨ sharp back with a thin melon🍈 Tobi is like the spiciest Tobi 🧐.
Quickly pour off the oil from the shaved fresh onions🧅 and small shrimps. The boiled rape blossoms are also hives 🤤.

Tsuneyama has sent us a very rare spec sake brewed with Miyamanishiki from Miyama-cho and Koshimizu, exclusive to the Echizen Miyama Jizake no Kai! As a Tsuneyama fan, I am honored to be able to review this sake 😎.
A bottle of Tsuneyama style terroir shines through!
Medium-bodied with a slight greenish tinge, it has a wonderful peach🍑 gin aroma!
When you sip it, you will be overwhelmed by the tangy carbonation with moderate sweetness, and then spanked by the bitterness characteristic of Tsuneyama! The bitter taste, which is characteristic of Tsuneyama, makes it sharp and clean!
As expected, there is no roughness! It is refined and extremely delicious!
It is similar to the Miyamanishiki Tsuneyama, which I drank in the spring and was very impressed with!
Miyama District: This is a mountainous area of Fukui City and the main production area for the sake rice used in Tsuneyama. The cold temperature difference is said to produce high quality sake rice.
Echizen Miyama Jizake no Kai: This is a group where Tsuneyama brews Miyama Reimei, a local sake from the Miyama area, and is in essence a hanpukai run by Tsuneyama. Last year it was closed by the time I got into Tsuneyama, so this year I got my wish and signed up 😎.
Feels fizzy.
It is not very sweet, thick, or acidic, and can be drunk refreshingly. However, it does not go well with rice, and would be better served alone or with an Italian-style meal, like a white wine.
This sake was also a gift from my partner. The aroma is a bit Suntory, with just a hint of fragrance, and it has a moderate acidity and umami without any gasiness, making it a superb food sake that is easy to finish.
First time in Fukui Prefecture 🎉.
We had a bottle of Junmai Chou from the regular Tsuneyama lineup.
This is a perfect choice for a mealtime sake or to go with fish or sushi.
Opening the bottle and starting to drink
It is not watery and dry, but rather crisp, dry, and stimulating. I paired it with shishamo (Japanese clams) and it was a great accompaniment as it reset the fat!
Postscript
When it is heated up, the dryness changes to a full flavor, which is also good......the best friend for a cold evening drink!
