Kamo Midori Junmai Ginjo
May 28, 2022
This is a sake brewery where I have had Takebayashi before. I remember it as a warmer version, but this one also has a strong matured aroma. It is too good to be served cold, but the acidity pulls the finish together and leaves a full-bodied flavor. Warming it up gives it more sweetness and body, and makes it a good complement to tsumami (rice dishes).
Kamo Midori from Marumoto Brewery is served in Hiya.
I was told that it is good for drinking during the meal, so I took it in collaboration with Mizore Nabe.
The aroma is clean with a hint of rice and water.
When you drink it, it is easy to take in.
It's not sticky at all.
Recently, I've come to the age where I feel that thick, sticky feeling is good for sake.
Is it just that my drinking level has improved?
It was cold outside, but the combination of hot pot and cold sake made for a great time.
It was another good day of sake.
This is the third Okayama local sake.
It has a moderate aroma, a light texture, and a clear throat.
It has a watery taste and lacks a little impact.
We enjoyed it with snow crab which we received as a tax payment.
When I put it in my mouth, I feel sourness and spiciness, and a little sweetness and umami come. I think I prefer it with a little more umami. I'm a beginner in sake (local sake), so I'd like to try a few more before I taste it again.
A mellow sake for everyday use
Fragrance ★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Taste ★★★★★☆☆
You can feel the good taste of rice and spiciness.
It is a feeling that does not interfere with the meal.
It is a little mistake that the other party was a sweet-and-sour pork.
It might have been good for the Japanese food like simmered dishes.
The bottle is too cute! I love that it's 180ml😆!
It's mellow at first, but not too sweet and refreshing. Today's entree was Yangnyeom Chicken, and it went pretty well! It seems to be easy to match with dishes with strong flavors.
I've been wondering for a while, is it possible to have a dish that's spicy with chili peppers as a snack with sake? I hear that chili peppers make your tongue chatter and you can't taste anything! I've heard that it's a good idea, but I don't think it's something to think about too much...
