Michelin-starred restaurant in Itabashi, 4th 🍶 at Sushi Matsumoto.
Isobojiman is a famous sake brewery in Shizuoka. It is no exaggeration to say that today's Niimasa is possible thanks to Isobojiman. I like how they use Tojo's Yamada Nishiki but don't show it off at all. ❓️ Every brewery writes "Tojo Yamada Nishiki" on their website!
It seems to be a bit sweet for Isobojiman. And if they didn't say it was a honjozo, I wouldn't know it was an aruze.
The gentle aroma of rice spreads on the palate. The aftertaste is clean and crisp.
In a sense, it is a dangerous sake that can be drunk easily without any unpleasant taste...
A light and dry drink.
Since it is alsobeared, it is characterized by its sharpness from the light mouthfeel.
It was neither good nor bad, but not very characteristic.
It has a smooth, watery texture with a hint of sweetness that recedes with bitterness.
On the second day, the sweetness increases, and I think I prefer this one.
One of the bottles in Sumino Sake Shop's February Hanpukai 🍶.
This is the first time I've had it even though it's a well-known brand ✨.
As I had heard beforehand, it was too elegant for my taste 💧.
I guess I should have left it for a week and drank it like it says on the label.
I'm surprised to look back at the price now and see that I drank such an expensive bottle so soon 💦.

A small amount of each year's "Isobiman Nakadori Junmai Daiginjo 35" is selected and slowly matured in cold storage. The brewer himself selects the best quality sake of the year from among the annual matured sake and names it "Adagio". However, if the brewery determines that the sake has not matured to a level suitable for Adagio, it will not be shipped that year.
Muscat aroma with green apple in the back. A cool, refreshing alcohol taste. Fresh sweetness with a hint of acidity. Bittersweet aftertaste.
I can't tell if it's arsed or not.
Nobilmente is a musical term for "noble, elegant, and graceful. This premium product follows "Isobiman Nakadori Junmai Daiginjyo 35 Vintage" and "Isobiman Nakadori Junmai Daiginjyo 35 Adagio. The terms "ginjo" and "daiginjo" are now commonly used to describe sake, but in fact, they have only been used in the last 10 or 15 years. Back in 1983, more than 30 years ago, the term "daiginjo" was almost unknown, but Isoban Shuzo began commercializing daiginjos.
Yamada-Nishiki from Tojo Akitsu, a special A district of rice production in Hyogo Prefecture, was refined to 28%, and 100% of both koji rice and kake rice were lavishly used. After about 50 days of careful cultivation, the unrefined sake is packed in sake bags and pressed slowly without any extra pressure. One hour before the top vatting, 65 liters of pure alcohol is added to 1 ton of sake rice. This process draws out the aromatic components latent in the koji, resulting in a more fruity and transparent finish.

The aroma is fruity, reminiscent of melon. The sweetness is subdued, and the umami of the rice spreads throughout the mouth.
I have been receiving an old-age pension since this June, but about 15% of the face amount will be deducted for nursing care and health insurance, plus resident and income taxes.
I need to take this into consideration when thinking about my second life!
I wanted to drink Isoboast after a long time, so I went to Yamamoto Sake Brewery in Sanjo, Kyoto. Unfortunately, they only had special honjozo, but I took it home with me. I wanted to drink it with tuna, but I finished it before eating the tuna. The freshness after opening the bottle and the gentle sweetness as the day goes by! It is a typical Shizuoka sake.
Photo right.
Isohajime, which I was not fond of after drinking the honjozo before.
This time, it seemed to be a different type, so I tried it.
It has an elegant aroma and a mild rice flavor. I prefer it to the honjozo!
