The rainy season is about to end, so we hurriedly opened the package.
Unique sweet and sour taste, stable and delicious 😆.
The boundary between sweet and sour is not so clear than usual Wataya, and the ambiguity is like the sky in the rainy season.
The dishes were tandoori chicken and eggplant grilled with spices 🍆.
I like cotton-ya that doesn't let the strong peculiarities of the spices get the better of it 😊.
Expedition & Train Sake. Opened a mini bottle of "Natsuwata" from "Wataya".
Just like the label with its beautifully blooming lotus flowers, it has a gentle flavor that softly spreads across the palate and a pleasant acidity that lingers in the aftertaste. It is a versatile player that can be paired with a wide variety of snacks.
A luxurious bottle of train sake. Delicious: ‼️
If you come to me in a cotton store with a pink label, I have no choice but to buy it. I was confused with Aozora and was attracted by the color.
Chokikapu" means "a little bit of ginjo aroma" and "ethyl caproate" means that it has a hint of ethyl caproate.
The sake is made with Yamada-Nishiki and has a Sake meter rating of -2, which is right in the middle of what I like.
I opened the bottle and checked the aroma. It is true that it has a slight aroma. Maybe it is a matter of technique. The taste was not a little, but it opened up in my mouth in a big and fluffy way.
It is also enjoyable that my tongue tingled for a while. Thank you, Mr. Kinui!
