Special Junmai and Junmai Ginjo
I received a set of three bottles. I thought I would keep this size for an offering, but I drank two of them in the order of the highest to lowest rice polishing ratio.
I will offer the other bottle as an offering.
I think Gokujo Yoshinogawa is the type of sake that you can easily buy and drink, but I hope the ancestors and the gods will be satisfied with the taste.
I asked for cold sake and got a 300 ml bottle.
I thought it was a bit much.
but it was good enough to drink up!
It's a refreshing Niigata-style sake!
Rice polishing ratio 55
Alcohol content 15%.
Sake meter rating +7
Acidity 1.2
Drank as a food sake, it is very pleasant on the palate, with a sweetness that is almost melon-like at the start.
However, the sweetness does not linger, and after a slight alcohol sensation that reminds you that it is sake, it too disappears with little or no aftertaste.
The sweetness may linger in the sake by itself, but in a mealtime sake, both the sweetness and the alcohol feeling have a very weak aftertaste, so it can be easily reset by simply eating something.
It would be a very easy sake to drink.
I had to go back to my parents' house and stayed there for 5 days and am going home today 🏠.
Shinkansen Izakaya will be open 🏮Echigo Beer and Gokujo Yoshinogawa 😆.
I forgot to get a cup of sake again! I forgot to get a cup of sake again 😁.
The aroma is fruity and the sake level is +2 degrees, but the sweetness of the rice makes it easy to drink ✨I'll drink a little bit until I get to Tokyo station 😄.
Hi Yucachin 😃
Izakaya 🏮 bullet train drinking version 😆The table with sake 🍶 and beer 🍺 is very attractive 😁I would love to sit next to you if available 😋.
Pon-chan, try drinking from a bottle 😁you won't be afraid of anything anymore 😆Snacks are salted wasabi crackers from Iwatsuka Seika. This might be the best snack for you. ❣️
Jay & Nobby, the Shinkansen was comfortable on a weekday afternoon with few people! But I guess most of the people were traveling for work. ⁉️ Some people were working on their PCs. I tried to be quiet, but I must have been harassed 😆 Please come next door 😄.
Drink it cold. It is not fruity, but has a strong rice flavor. It is not so refreshing for an arosozome sake, so it may be better to cool or warm it up to tighten it up. It has a classical taste and is quite heavy. Ika no shiokara (salted squid) is the perfect accompaniment to this sake.
