This was my first visit to Oita. First, we stopped in Hita to enjoy freshly brewed beer at the Sapporo Beer Hita factory, and then visited the brewery, Kuncho Sake Brewery. The brewery has a museum where old sake brewing tools are on display and can be viewed at your leisure. We purchased two small bottles to drink at the inn, and after a relaxing evening soak in the hot spring, we opened the special junmai first. It was dry and refreshing, with a slight yogurt-like fermentation and alcohol taste. It also had the feel of traditional sake. It was a treat 😄.
Second cup (*^^*)
Yes, this is my first aroma. Nice aroma, ethyl acetate aroma too.
So rice is tamaei, first time I drink it.
It has a bitter taste and a good amount of sweetness.
It's intoxicating 😃.
We had a mixture of the two.
The thickened yogurt and light pink liquid looked delicious.
When I drank it while eating the steamed buns, the spicy mustard condiments were very spicy.
It has a wonderfully mellow, matured flavor. It is gentle on the palate and has a gorgeous lingering aftertaste that lasts for a long time.
Accompanied by sesame tofu (homemade)
The news came that Hita City's Ojita pottery festival was to be held for the first time in five years. I told my wife that I wanted to go, so we got a plate and a coffee cup and went to Kaorucho Sake Brewery.
Since I had to drive, I asked my wife to taste the sake and choose one that she thought I would like.
It smelled like muscat.
It was juicy like wine when I put it in my mouth.
It has a refreshing taste with a touch of acidity.
The alcohol content is high, but it is easy to drink and goes down smoothly.
I bought this one, which had the sweetest taste of cooked rice among those I tasted at the sake brewery.
It has a low alcohol content of 12 degrees and is easy to sip. When I opened it, it was like a soda-laced soda bar without the softness I felt when tasting it.
I will try it again after a while.
I drank it in a glass on the first day and in a cup on the second day.
The taste mellowed and I could taste the rice flavor on my tongue when I tasted it.
The aroma of rice husks was the first time I have tasted rice husk in sake.
It is a matured version of the unrefined sake brewed in early spring, and has the appearance of the unrefined sake, which is both impressive and cohesive.
I thought it was a spring sake because of the name "Shunyo" and the pink label, but it was released in August😍.
The liquor store said it was a limited edition sake for the opening of the brewery.
Yummmm 😍😍😍😍!
This sweet and fruity flavor is...melon! 🍈🍈😍😍
Just a little bit of tingling gas.
The aroma smells like rice, but when you drink it, it tastes like melon juice 😆.
After a while, when the temperature rises, it's like a yogurt milk candy 😋.
Alcohol content: 14 degrees Celsius
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Junmai Namaishu made with rice called Shunyo
