My goal is to conquer all the sakes in Japan, but I can't resist local sake.
This is my favorite brand, Dragon Black by Ryuryoku.
This sake is brewed with Hyogo-nishiki, a variety of Yamada-nishiki developed by Hyogo Prefecture as a countermeasure against global warming!
It is characterized by its low aroma, but it has a deep flavor and is crisp, clear, and dry!
We think this is a wonderful sake for a mealtime drink!
Thank you very much! Hyogo, my hometown, has many great sake brands including Banshu Ikken, and I am very proud of it, so I would like to drink as much as I can to show off my hometown! I will aim to conquer the whole country while consulting with my allowance.
Sake brewed with Ryuriki's original sake rice, Shinryu Nishiki, a cross between Shinryoku and Yamadanishiki.
Delicious, but I personally prefer Shinryoku.
Sake brewed with Shinryoku, the ancestor of Gohyakumangoku, which was apparently discovered in the town of Mitsu, not far from the brewery.
Although it is a special pure rice sake, it has a very clean taste and is delicious!
No wonder the person accompanying me recommended it!
Today we were invited to a sake tasting at the Ryuryoku brewery...
Whisper of freshly squeezed rice
Gorgeous aroma, beautiful taste with rice flavor and sweetness.
