It tastes clearly different from the sake I've had in the past! The aftertaste is kind of like cheese, thick and stinky in a good way, and I would love to drink it while eating meat or something.
I want to try this kind of overly distinctive sake!
Today is Valentine's Day!๐ฉโโค๏ธโ๐จ This Sake paired very well with the filet mignon I prepared for my wife. There is a full mouth feel with umami. There is a light smoke flavor and wood. The aftertaste is short.
A strange sake with "soy sauce and miso" appearing in front of your eyes when you smell it. When you take a sip, the miso-like aroma and the sweetness of ginjo litter the palate. The aftertaste is slightly bitter.
The second day after opening the bottle, the flavor becomes more subdued, but the soy sauce and miso that would go well with meat still linger in the mind. This sake is the embodiment of the peculiar Yamahai style.
When heated, the peculiarity disappears and the soy sauce and miso go away. The aftertaste is bitter, but it has a nice sharpness.
Beginners will have a hard time with this sake, but intermediate and advanced drinkers will definitely enjoy it in many ways. I would recommend serving it at room temperature to feel the peculiarity.
I was curious about this sake because I heard it goes well with meat.
Today, I got it at Yoshiike in Okachimachi.
It's a sake brewery in Niigata Prefecture, but I have yet to try it.
It is a sake brewery in Niigata Prefecture, but I've never had it before. The moderate density of flavor and acidity may indeed be designed to go well with meat. There is also a sake quality that washes away the fat without losing the flavor of the meat.
It also goes well with hormones such as Marucho and Mino.
As a grill man, I grill the meat and deliver it to the table, while I make my own kitchen drinks in the kitchen, which are also delicious.
When I was working and living in Hon Atsugi, Kanagawa Prefecture, a hormone-oriented yakiniku restaurant called Suishouen was the most popular restaurant in Atsugi City, open from 1600.
I remember seeing people drinking while grilling hormones on the seven rings at the counter right after the restaurant opened, and thinking how jealous I was of how delicious it looked.
Good evening, Yukachin.
Yesterday I was standing in the kitchen drinking, so today I tried to drink again slowly (4th photo).
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
The brewer seems to have imagined it to be paired with steak๐ .
I'm sure you'll be able to appreciate it even more when you pair it with a thick steak ๐ฅฉ.
