Clear and sweet.
As the name suggests, Kyokai No. 1 yeast is used. This is a common pattern among Akita sake recently, but this is the first time I have had it. I don't know enough about yeast to talk about it, but it suits me. It tastes good!
When served cold, the aroma is of sake, with a light muscat flavor.
Sweetness on the palate, with a touch of acidity at the end, refreshing and easy to drink.
When lukewarm, the aroma is sweeter and more like amazake.
The sweetness is stronger, but the sourness is more pronounced, with a bitter taste at the end.
It is best to drink it cold with rice, or warm it up if you want a spicy snack.
Scoring: ☆☆☆☆
Fifth cup is Tenju no Tenju (lol) ❣️
Here's another one I've never seen before 👀.
Collaboration sake with 10 restaurants 🍶.
This one also has a mild aroma for Tenju and is suitable for a mid-meal drink 💕︎
I didn't know there was such a thing 💧.
A subtle ginjo aroma with a crisp sharpness👍.
I had it with tempura: ❣️
It helps to clear away the oil 😋.
And last but not least...
Scoring ☆☆☆☆
The third drink was a Tenju no Yume Tsumugi ❣️
First time I've seen it 👀.
Junmai 🍶 brewed with edible rice 🌾 Sasanishiki
Looking at the label on the back, it looks like it was made by three people who had a dream of brewing sake with rice they grew themselves 🌾!
The aroma is quite mild for a Tenju.
It seems like it was made by three people who dreamed of brewing their own sake.
The taste is quite classical.
It's quite classic 😅💦.
Maybe even more so after the Shinmasa 😅💦.
I had it with turban shells: ❣️
The seasoning inside the turban shells is the best👍
It was a delicious snack 😋.
Now, next...
