Tochigi Prefectural Association (2)
Next up was the sake that was left for me 🍶 Aikoku by Hououmida. The ancient sake rice "Aikoku No. 3" was revived and brewed by Sengoku and Hououmida respectively 🍶.
Let's start with Hououmida! The aroma is fruity like apple, but less so. The taste is not so sweet. The taste is not so sweet, but there is umami from it. The acidity and bitterness overlap in a good way and it finishes well. Overall, it is tasty and easy to drink. It goes down smoothly. Good for summer time.
By the way, the photo is of Tsubu-chan.
Final nihonshu I felt worth remembering from my quick trip.
Again at 日本酒原価酒蔵.
Decided to try an ulfiltered at the end of the night to try something different.
Interesting flavour, quite fruity with strawberry, dryness yet lingering flavour.
Good with even oily foods. Good enough to remember (can’t remember the other 3 we had that night).
It is very tasty and well-balanced, with an elegant sweetness and umami in the sense of moderation, a gorgeous aroma, and a subtle acidity and bitterness that leaves the taste buds, making it drinkable on any occasion.
Hmmm, no gassy feeling at all.
The aroma is also light. The taste is also weak.
It is not a sake that can be enjoyed on its own.
It can be used as a food sake.
It's a Sunday house drink.
I feel good in a cool room.
I wanted to drink Mikumari~~!
Wow, it's so delicious!
What surprised me was the "fizzy" feeling.
This refreshing taste is like cider.
It is refreshing, including the sweetness.
It's the perfect drink for hot summer!
Good evening, Mr. Pekkaal!
Mikumari 2nd, it's delicious 😋.
I remember it from last year, but it has a great schwarziness and is perfect for the hot summer 🤗.
Good evening, ma-ki-.
I think again. It is possible to make such delicious sake with just rice, rice malt, and water!
I am looking forward to the mikumari after tomorrow!
