Clear liquid color
Sweet and fresh aroma
When you drink it, it has a pineapple-like sweetness.
Long aftertaste, with a slight bitterness, chestnut? Rice? Soft sweetness of chestnut or rice lingers in the aftertaste.
Purchased at a liquor store near Yoshizuka Station
Unusual sake blended with aged sake
(Just after opening the bottle)
Drink it cold.
Golden color with no turbidity.
Strong aged aroma similar to that of Shaoxing wine.
Heavy in the mouth with a sweet taste.
Unlike Shaoxing wine, it retains a slight taste of rice.
The sweetness lingers in the mouth for a long time.
Nutty aftertaste.
Strong alcohol taste through the nose, but milder than that of shochu on the rocks
It was so good, I had to repeat the nine. Cheers to the Miyazaki char-grilled chicken, grilled soaked eggplant, red bean paste, and grilled salted pumpkin!
It is said to be a standard product of Kuo. It is junodai, but reasonably priced at 1,650 yen without tax. It was my first time drinking this brand, but since it is a Tochigi sake, a new brand limited to semi-major dealers, and handled by Mashida and Yodogawa Sake Brewery, I picked it up thinking it would be a no-brainer.
On the first day, we started with heating the sake to 40°C. The aroma is slightly apple-like, but mild. The aroma is slightly apple-like, but mild. When you drink it, it has an apple-like aroma and a delicious rice flavor, followed by bitterness and spiciness.
The second day, served cold. It has a slight alcohol-like taste and rice flavor, and slowly lifts. Less sharp than heated sake.
This is a very high level of perfection. It is a bit on the modern side, but not too modern, and goes well with a variety of foods.
Hi Kab 😃
You must be a Tochigi connoisseur to be convinced by Mashidaya and Yodogawa 🤗.
We've only had Kubi once 😅I remember it as having a very unique flavor!
Good evening Jay and Nobby 🌃
New brands from big local breweries that are exclusive to special dealers are often perfect and reasonable 😊Tochigi-esque but also good for food, I liked it a lot 😁.
