Drinking at home.
Today, I took a day off from work.
I went to a nearby liquor store and chose a good sake.
The bottle I bought is Hourai from Hida Watanabe Shuzo, which brews my favorite W.
It is the sake for the destination of the trip my wife and I are going on next month.
I wanted to check the taste in advance.
My first impression was that it was delicious.
The sweet aroma, spiciness, and acidity come together to transform the unique aroma of the habitual shellfish sashimi into a delicious flavor.
It is a clear cut and tasty.
Hida's Watanabe Shuzo's Hourai "Summer Nigori" is supposed to be served on the rocks, but I had it with soda. It was like an adult cream soda, not too sweet at all, and would go well with any dish. Various slices of sashimi were seared a little. I had the bonito tataki with garlic 😋👍.
I recently traveled to Hida Takayama.
This is one of the two bottles I bought on that trip ✨.
The aroma is fruity and the mouthfeel is mild, but surprisingly it doesn't linger. It's a very nice bottle 🍶😄.
Today, I grilled Hida beef I bought in Takayama with Hoba Miso and served it with my dinner 🍶😙(a bit extravagant though--😅🍶)
The delicious fat of the Hida beef was washed away easily and I realized that Hida sake is the best for Hida beef. 🙇✨🤣🍶
As a cold sake with a strong rice flavor, it is really delicious!
Soft, Hidahomare. Deep and full-bodied.
I recommend this to everyone.
