Sake comparison at home!
We chose 3 kinds of sake from "Fukumitsuya", a long-established sake brewery in Kanazawa.
Fukumasa Munune Junmai Dry, Nama Zume.
This was the first sake made with black malted rice. I felt a bit salty, but I wondered if this was the richness found in sake made with "black koji"?
Wind, Water, Man, Junmai 9
It is a junmai sake with an alcohol content of 9 degrees Celsius and a refreshing taste. I would like to drink it with pasta or Italian food!
Fukumaso Sake: Hyoketsu Nama-Shu Dry
With a sake alcohol content of +10%, it has a very strong sake taste! I would like to drink it with a salty meal and sip it while neutralizing the taste.
It was interesting to compare the different types of sake and to see the difference between them. ☺️
I went to Wajima by chance. This is the first sake I drank there.
As the label says, it is light, more like a classic sake, with a low alcohol content of 9%, which makes it easy to drink. It has both umami and acidity.
While many stores in downtown Wajima have yet to reopen for business, we purchased this sake at Freshland Maruko, one of the few supermarkets that remained open until relatively easy to use hours.
It has been almost five months since the disaster, and there are still many collapsed houses blocking the roads, but the media coverage of the disaster is decreasing, and the local people are worried that the disaster will be forgotten.
As in the case of the Great East Japan Earthquake, we ask for everyone's continued support. We should not forget about Tohoku, though.
Wind, Water, and People
Fukumitsuya
It is easy to drink, just like water.
There is almost no alcohol taste, so one gou of this sake will be gone in no time.
Ishikawa's sake is usually thick, but this one is the complete opposite, so it would be interesting to compare the two. It is delicious.
Polishing ratio 70%.
12% alcohol by volume
