Brewed by Maruishi Brewery in Okazaki, Aichi
Nitoshi Junmai Ginjo Omachi 55 SWEET Hi-iri
We are always grateful to Ni-Utsuri.
This time, we will try Ni-Utsuri's
It is said to be the sweetest of all the Ni-Utsuri brews.
SWEET🧡💛 which is said to be the sweetest of all the Ni-Utsuri bottles 😆.
I've kept it in the fridge for about 3 months😅
Finally opened the bottle 🍾🍾🍾.
When I drank it, I found
Juicy with a hint of acidity.
and finally a SWEET aftertaste 🥰🥰.
A beautiful sake🎶🎶🥳.
Keep it out a little cold,
When the temperature rises a little,
it somehow feels even more SWEET🧡💛😊.
It's a great Friday 🥰🥰🥰.
Nitoshi's Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Gojugo Hi. I happened to come across it at a liquor store and bought it.
The aroma is a little sour like white wine. The mouthfeel is the same white wine-like acidity as the aroma, followed by a light to mid-bodied sweetness. Yet, it is not too strong, so it can be fully enjoyed as a stand-alone alcoholic beverage.
The description of the wine as "a balance between two opposites" is understandable.
I was able to purchase this year's Maruishi Brewing Company's Maruishi Day ゙ and was able to purchase the brewery's limited edition Ni-Wolf raw 🎶🤤, which I was looking forward to 🤤The theme this year is "secret" 😉.
It has a slightly amberish color and maybe a slight thickening ❔🤔.
Let's start with the aroma 🎶✨️Ginjo aroma like a gorgeous lychee 🎶✨️🤤.
On the palate, there's a slight chilli🫧 feeling and sourness 🎶😋, then fruity゙, and finally a modest but lingering spiciness 🎶🤤No - it's delicious 😆 this time it can go as a food wine 🎶😉.
It has a firm, punchy quality, with a twin flavor of acidity and umami, and the sweetness was not so strong.
As the label says, this year's Niwolf was low-polished, and the 80%-polished Aizan was made in pursuit of Aizan-ness and Niuzan-ness.
It is not a classic sake, but it is not a modern, sweet and fruity sake.
A gift from my son in Nagoya. Junmai-shu made with only 77% polished Yume-Ginko, Aichi's sake rice. This is a collaboration project between farmer KT, three breweries in Aichi, Maruishi in Okazaki, Gigi in Owari, and Shikishima in Chita. It is interesting to know about Aichi. Like Nitoshi, the aroma is fruity despite being junmai, and the sweetness is strongly felt and tastes good, but depending on the accompaniment, the bitterness may appear. It is refreshing and delicious. It was a wonderful sake.
The first two hares
Only those who chase two hares will get two hares
I didn't know the definition of two hares, and I didn't feel like I got much out of it.
3.9/5.0
It was a close call to open the bottle! This is actually my first Ni-Rabbit. It is slightly effervescent and has a strong sweetness on the palate, but the bitterness and umami soon follow. It is indeed a good balance of the two opposites, the two hares chasing each other!
