The ginjo aroma is ethyl caproate, the attack is sweet with a strong sense of fermentation, the acidity is deep, the umami is full, and the finish is slightly lingering. Compared to the usual Harushika dry sake, it has a more mild taste with umami due to the fact that it is a hiyaoroshi (cold sake). It is delicious as it should be in autumn.
Even after about 5 days, it still has umami and aroma and is delicious without tiring to drink. 👍️
Nara Prefecture
Junmai Harushika
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Alcohol 15.3
Junmai Harushika has the royal road taste of junmai dryness.
It has the umami of rice, but without the persistent sweetness, and leaves a soft, oily feel on the tongue.
It is an excellent sake that you can continue drinking without getting tired of it.
The second drink at Tensho was Harushika by Imanishi Seibei Shoten.
Super dry this time!
This sushi restaurant seems to have an unchanging lineup of sake, and this Harushika was the last one I hadn't had here, so I tried it, even though it was super dry!
Recently, we have been drinking dry sake when we go out for drinks, and all of them are delicious, so we are looking forward to this one too!
Let's start with the first sip!
First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong.
In the mouth, you can feel the spiciness from the traditional sake taste, but it is also refreshing.
It has a complex flavor, and after the taste finishes, the lingering aftertaste is also refreshingly rich and pungent.
The smooth mouthfeel is a perfect match for the flavor.
Although the impression is that it is dry, when served with a meal, you can also feel a deep sweetness, and this time it was again a super dry wine that was delicious!
Good morning, ma-ki-, and happy birthday to your wife. It's just wonderful to be able to celebrate at your favorite restaurant👍Harushika, it's hard to find a dry one, but it's a brand I would like to taste: ☺️
Thank you, Afio!
You used to drink it before 🤗.
It's really easy to drink despite the name "super dry" 😋.
As you said, it goes great with food, and both food and alcohol went well with it 😁✨.
Thank you, Mr. Studying!
It was a blissful day enjoying what my wife wanted to eat and do 😁✨✨.
I usually prefer sweet and savory dishes, but I've encountered a lot of them while out drinking 😋.
If you have a chance, please give it a try 😋😋!
The Junmai Ginjo Blue Label🦌 from Harushika is refreshing to look at.
In Nara, you can buy it in supermarkets: ☝️
It is more subdued than other Harushika, but light, mellow and easy to drink 😋.
It has a sake level of -3, but it's almost neutral and recommended as a food sake 🙂.
TYPE-B from Sake Brewery MARCHE
This sake has a fruity acidity 🍶.
It is also delicious with a gentle sweetness 😋.
We ordered 2 bottles each of A and B 🤭.
You were right 🍀.
Super dry
There are no strange peculiarities, so it is easy to match, but those who want to enjoy sweetness and aroma may not like it.
It seems to go well with dishes with a strong saltiness, dark flavors such as teriyaki, or sweet flavors such as ray fillet.
