Echigo-Kenshin SAKE Festival 2024⑦
Itoigawa's Inomata Sake Brewery.
This is a low-paste sake. Last year they did not participate due to the Itoigawa Sake Festival on the same day. Itoigawa city is next to Toyama, but it needs to be explored more 😄.
Autumn, the season of Niigata Sake
While visiting the Niigata Sake Festival at the Kintetsu Main Store in Abeno Harukas and having a few drinks, I decided to try to immerse myself in Niigata sake this fall,
I decided to drink Niigata sake this fall. We will start with Kitahama Hakkesho, which is also rumored to be a Niigata sake brewery.
By the way, Kitahama Hakkosho is also holding a Niigata Fair.
(1) Tsuki no Fumi no Ike hiyaoroshi (hiyaoroshi from Tsuki no Fumi no Ike)
This sake is from Itoigawa in Joetsu.
It is read as "Tsukimizu-no-ike.
It is served cold.
It is a light cream-colored sake.
The top aroma is of gentle banana.
It has a smooth, refreshing taste with a hint of blue banana, caramel, and rice flavor. The final taste is dry and tight.
It is a light and dry sake, but it is delicious with a strong rice flavor 😋 I would like to heat this up!
And one more glass.
I had it for the first time.
The aroma was a little sharp grain and alcohol with a slight grape and pineapple-like fruity aroma. The impression was dry and tasty, with moderate sweetness, tingling alcohol, and acidity and bitterness to tighten the aftertaste. It was a treat.
Lightly sweet and fragrant sake
Lightly sweet, fragrant sake with a watery, light, sweet and astringent texture
A slight aroma of rice.
Soft sweetness and astringency come together.
A crisp, clean, beautifully sweet and astringent wine.
It is light and refreshing, which is typical of Niigata, but it is also delicious with its own flavor.
Alternate take "Hare" sake released once every four years 🍶.
And yet I opened it on a normal day 😵.
The more you drink it, the deeper it gets, with a grapefruity acidity and a slight carbonation 💡.
Complete jackets👍
Sweet, sour and juicy like an apple🍎.
Low alcohol content, perfect for hot days. It can be served on the rocks or with soda.
I couldn't help but drink too much. It was empty before I knew it.
