It's very tasty.
Iwate is playing up these days.
Red Takeshi and Purple Space
Up-and-coming sakes
This time, I'd like to try Shihu.
The taste is a little bland.
After that, umami and slight bitterness spread in the mouth.
and a slight bitterness in the mouth.
Just like the musical note label
It is a sake that makes you want to play music.
This time we had it with a sake cup
I had it with a sake cup I bought in Iwate.
New Year's Eve and New Year's Day (3)
I was looking for a "sparkling" or "light nigori" sake for the year-end and New Year's holidays, and here is the one that satisfied both of my needs: 💁♀️ Murasaki Uchu has always been my favorite brewery, so it was an instant decision: ❣️
As expected, it is not too sweet, not too gorgeous, and fresh with a step back. It is neither wine nor makgeolli. It's not even like sake, but it's made from rice😅.
It also went well with the "sea bream and abalone shabu shabu" from the New Year's Eve menu. Thank you for the meal 😋.
It is a fragrant sake. The aroma was not too gorgeous, but had a sweet, apple-like top note, and in the mouth it had a soft, mellow mouthfeel that was balanced by a crisp acidity and bitterness that made me exclaim, "This is a good sake!
I opened the bottle a month after I bought it, and the lid was so tight I thought I wouldn't be able to open it... I guess it was producing a lot of gas, it didn't spill but it was a little bit alive lol.
I stopped by the Shiwa Sake Brewery and was told that they did not carry Shiwa Sake.
I was directed to a nearby 7-Eleven where I purchased it.
Fruity and sizzling on the palate!
The sweetness is moderate, and the flavor of rice can be felt well.
It was delicious with a pleasant sourness and bitterness.
It has the flavor of adult makgeolli. It has a familiar taste, but is not at all sweet. It has a smooth mouthfeel that is typical of Iwate sake, with a tangy, sharp acidity and a fizzy taste, making it a perfect winter drink.
Purple Space Sparkling Polka Dot Label.
This is a sake that can be purchased at NEWDAYS (JR East station kiosks) in the Tokyo metropolitan area on the same day it is pressed by JR East's transportation service, Kokobun.
The initial aroma is slightly of rice powder.
In the mouth, there is a juicy sweetness of rice with a hint of acidity.
I think the purple space is probably delicious even if you don't carry it in a Hakobyun... it was delicious. ✨️🍶Laughs

When chilled at 2°C, the bottle did not react to anything when opened.
First, I drank only the top clearings and found a fine carbonation with a slight fruity taste.
It was like sparkling wine.
Is this sake?
Next, I tried the nigori.
I felt the sweetness of rice, but it did not taste like sake.
It is not wine either.
It's hard to describe, but it's delicious.
It tastes like sake, but not like wine.
I think I will drink too much.
I ended up emptying a bottle.
Sunday night...
From the "First Brand" series, "Shihou" 🍶!
I had been curious about this sake for a while, but there were no stores near me that carried it, so I left it unattended... but when I looked it up, I found a store that carried it in an unexpected place 🥰.
When I looked at the refrigerator at the first store...
I found 3 kinds of "Purple Space" 💡.
I stared at the fridge and wondered which one I should choose 👀 and took her with me...
I'll have some right away 😋.
The aroma is mild.
The taste is not so much pineapple, not so sweet, not so sour and well balanced 🙆.
The other sake has a negative Sake level... but I didn't feel it was that sweet, so I guess the other ones are ok too 🤣⁉️
It's a challenge 😋.

drinking at home
The first new sake was made with purple air.
It still has a shwashiness, more sweetness, and moderate acidity and bitterness. It is still delicious this year!
