Tonight's accompaniment is a bottle of this one. It is an all-Iwate sake. When the bottle is opened, it has a gorgeous ginjo aroma. In the mouth, it has an elegant sweetness and a crispness that flows smoothly. Delicious! The cabbage and mushroom stir-fry was served with the sweetness and bitterness of the cabbage, elevating the sake to an even more elegant level. I wonder if the vinegar-infused boiled komatsuna vegetables will bring out the bitterness of sake. The savory flavor of the grilled chicken sweetens the sake and goes well with it!
The savory flavor of the grilled chicken sweetens the sake and goes well with it! Potato salad style with okara is also good with sake. The abalone sashimi with soy sauce and liver is a gift from a friend. It's so good! It was a wonderful sake!
Today's drink of the day is opened here 💁.
It is Asakai Junmai Shinshu Nama-Nagara Sake from Iwate Prefecture.
The nose is fruity, and in the mouth it is like juicy, fresh apples with a delicious aftertaste that lingers.
It is so easy to drink that it is hard to believe that it is 18%.
It seems to be brewed with one of Morioka's three famous waters, Daijishinsui.
This is a repeat ☺️

The aroma is gorgeous, but not too much, with moderate sweetness, acidity, and bitterness.
It is a Junmai Daiginjo with good cost performance, and I liked the taste.
On the second day, the acidity receded slightly and the sweetness increased. The second day, the acidity receded slightly and the sweetness increased.

It is made from 100% Iwate-grown "Ginotome" grapes, and is characterized by its mild ginjo aroma and balanced by a tight acidity. With its fruity aroma and clean taste, it can be enjoyed cold or warmed. It is also a good match with meals, and goes well with Western cuisine.
Newly brewed "Asakai" sake received as a New Year's gift. The first bottle of Junmai Nama-zake was opened.
When the bottle is opened, it has a fresh aroma. The sake has a good balance of umami and sweetness, and is packed with even more flavor. The alcohol content is 18% because it is a pure sake, but you will not get tired of drinking it and the sake will go down a treat.
It is a versatile sake that can be served with all kinds of food, both Japanese and Western. Delicious: ❗️
