Banana-like ginjo aroma. The acidity is strong, but sweetness and a slight spiciness comes afterwards. Overall, a well-balanced sake.
Satisfaction level: 4
It is a sake brewed with jusui (ten-water brewing), which means that the rice content is 2 to 30 percent higher than usual.
It is a rich but neat sake with a nice harmony of umami.
It goes perfectly with meals.
(It is grilled herring, though.)
Thanks to the lady at the Tsuruoka Tourist Information Center, the last one is Jusui from Daisen. The origin of Jumizu brewing is on the back label.
It is made from Yamagata's staple rice, Haenuki, and Yamagata yeast. The sake is still sweet at -8.5 on the sake meter. It is a mellow umamikuchi, and delicious.
Good morning, WOM 😃.
I'm sure you got the information from your hometown👍.
Sake with a good appetizer 🍶 and the udon at the end of the meal looks crisp and delicious 😋.
Thank you, Jay & Nobby. No doubt! I am so glad I found you guys. He was also a great guy with some maniacal information about supermarkets with a wide variety of locally brewed sake. The udon noodles are a Shonai specialty, barley noodles, a slightly thicker version of Inaniwa udon. Delicious.
I wanted to try Jusui!
There was no draft sake, so...,
It was hot, so I chose sparkling.
The sparkling was indeed very effervescent when poured into a glass.
It didn't take long to open the bottle and it opened right away.
Is this the first time? The one that claims to be sparkling. It is more like champagne than sake.
Very good for a crisp drink on a hot day! It's very refreshing on a hot day!
When I poured the last of it, it was very cloudy. I was surprised.
I'm going out to dinner with a client.
As it was the Bon Festival, there were only a limited number of restaurants available, so I made a reservation on the Internet for a place that looked good.
I was a little curious, so I asked my wife and my eldest son to visit the restaurant for a preview.
Jusui Special Junmai
I chose one I had never had before.
Sake with a soft sweetness and a gentle feeling.
The restaurant is not bad, but not the best place to go with guests.
We cut off at a suitable place and went to research another restaurant.
