Alcoholic beverages consumed on 5/20 Sake with a strong flavor anyway! It is very rich! The rice polishing ratio is 90%, which seems to be almost unrefined, which gives it a strong flavor and acidity. The aroma is a bit peculiar. Someone commented that it smells like mirin (sweet cooking rice wine), and I thought, "I see. I thought it smelled like soy sauce even though it's supposed to be sake. I think it smells a little bit salty. The moment you drink it, you get a lot of sourness and umami, but the aftertaste is surprisingly light and doesn't linger. Recently, there are many fruity and sweet sake and light, clean-flavored sake, so this was a good discovery. It is a "umakuchi" sake, but it is not too strong, so I recommend it to those who are not good at umakuchi but want to try it...

2021BY was served warmed. It mellows out as it warms up, but like Gonin Musume, it also has the crisp acidity that is typical of the Terada family.

Sake that is not polished. So the rice polishing ratio is 90. The aroma is not of fruit, but of rice. The acidity is stronger than the others, and it comes with a gusto. It is different from the citrusy sourness of the Bodai brew. It is sweet, but with a kick. The label said the alcohol content was 21 degrees. That's a surprise! I thought.

I found the best 👀! I've been curious about Terada Honke, which is particular about its brewing for a long time, so I finally got around to drinking it. I purchased it at Sazanami Sake Shop in Hikone City! Malted Rice type : Miyamanishiki, Yukikawake Kakemai: Miyamanishiki, Yukikake, Koshihikari Do they use different types of rice depending on the occasion? 🤔 Color →Dark kohaku color. Aroma → Unique aroma that is somehow different from that of old sake. It has a mysterious aroma like grapefruit. Anyway, the aroma is strong. Taste →From the very beginning, it has a strong taste. It tastes like rice, or perhaps it is the umami of rice, but it has a unique flavor just like the aroma. It has a strong aroma and taste, and is delicious even when heated. It's perfect 😋! Perfect 💯. One sip and I'm a fan 🤤.

The color is slightly yellow. It has a crisp, strong acidity, which is typical for a sake made from a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast. It was paired with sashimi (4th photo), so it was served at room temperature, but it would also be good warmed.

I really wanted to drink it again after a long time, so I bought it again! It is still delicious! It has the same concept as Sawanoi's Genroku sake, but Katori has a more refreshing taste.

Made in 2016, 90% polished rice, golden colored, matured sake. Delicious with a moderate aged aroma, penetrating flavor, and soft acidity. This is the best of all medicines.

It is clear with yellowish tints and has aromas of cooked rice, yogurt, honeysuckle, and must. The attack is rather strong, with a refreshing acidity, moderate sweetness, and a rather short finish.

Served hot. I asked for something very "ricy" and unique served hot, since we just came in from the cold. It wasn't that "ricy" to my tastebuds even though it's made on (mostly?) unpolished rice. But quite umami. I saw someone else describe it having notes of cheese and probably being good with cheese, and I agree with the second part. A very nice one-time experience.

Alcohol 15%, Rice polishing ratio 90%, Sake degree +4 to +7 Acidity 3.0-6.0, Amino acidity 2.8-3.5 My wife gave this to me on a business trip, saying, "If you drink organic wine, you should also drink this. Looking at the specs, it seems to have quite a unique character! We compared the wines by drinking it warmed and chilled! Cold The aroma is sweet. I could smell the inside of a rice bag containing threshed rice. Slight hint of soy sauce. On the palate, one senses a complex acidity, but the umami of the rice comes through later! The aftertaste is short and crisp. This complex and intense acidity must be the reason for the 90% rice polishing ratio...! Warming up The aroma is milder and sweeter than in the cold sake. The aroma is milder and sweeter than cold, with a hint of sourness. The taste is a combination of sourness and sweetness, which were clearly separated when cold. The sourness is more complex and stronger than when cold! And the sourness itself seems to be covered with sweetness! When returned to room temperature, it approaches the flavor of cold. As the label says, this complex sourness, which is like a "miscellaneous taste," enhances the original flavor of the rice...this is the kind of sake we are looking for. I think those who are hooked on this sake will never be able to go back to modern, mild and refined sake again! I am sure that sake in the past was like this!

Today is Katori. This is the 6th bottle of Chiba Sake Fair. I have been completely addicted to Terada Honke's sake since I received a collaboration sake with Patagonia the other day. This Katori is a natural sake with 90% polished rice, no added yeast, and a natural yeast yeast yeast. The color of the sake is light amber. When opened, the aroma was wild and had a strong cheese-like flavor, but after a week of opening the bottle, it has calmed down considerably. It feels a little stiff at room temperature, so I drink it warmed. The first taste is a full-bodied sweetness like raisins, followed by a strong sourness like lemon. The combination of that sapidity and the savory rice flavor, like eating brown rice, makes for a very addictive taste. It's delicious. It has a wild taste of natural sake and is recommended for acidic sake lovers. I was lamenting the fact that my stock of Chiba sake was about to run out with this sake, when to my surprise, there was a Chiba Prefecture antenna store in Umeda! I immediately went to buy some. Chiba's specialties are peanuts and Choshi Dentetsu's bad stick. It was a weekend full of snacks ^ ^. Of course, we also stocked more sake🎶.

Hi Hirupeco! Oooooo! When did you find the A store in Chiba over there? I recognized it from the second picture of the glass window! I'm on the Hankyu line 😋. (I'm sorry if it's too small 💧)
