In Shimane Prefecture (7) Souvenirs for a friend's house
This is another sake I chose after consulting with a liquor store!
I really wanted to bring Kaze no Mori, but I felt it would not keep the temperature well. I asked him if he had any similar sakes that were fire-aged.
It is a sour, carbonated sake with a koji flavor. It said on its website that it was made with lactic acid bacteria. I was not sure what kind of category it was.
My friend said it has a low alcohol content but feels strong and tastes of koji!
I now understand a little more why the liquor store said it was similar to Kaze no Mori!
We drank 4 bottles side by side, Gassan from Shimane, Shichikanma, Nichinichi from Kyoto, and Kido from Wakayama, all different types, so it was a good time to compare 🥰.
That's all for my trip to Shimane Prefecture!
Well, well, well...first time. Itoshima 😊day, day, day.
I've never seen it before, but I got this bottle when I went to Kogota because there is a good liquor store just a little over an hour drive away.
Oh, this is delicious. Mild aroma, silky and fine water. It is neither fruity nor dry, but just in between.
It's very easy to drink and goes down very smoothly.
I feel like I can drink it forever. It's very easy to drink and it goes down very smoothly.
It's a good drink that makes you feel like you are in Kyoto.
Good evening, brother 🚛🚛.
I go to Kogota ‼️ for work in winter 🚛.
There is such a thing as Itoshima in the sun 😳I want to feel Kyoto too 🥹.
I finally got Aizan the other day ❣️
Thanks for the comment, Muro 😊.
So, you are going to Kogota for work?
You are a long distance driver, aren't you? I'm sorry to hear that 🙇.
Actually, I was looking for something else. There is a liquor store that started selling Shinshu Kamerei this year 👍.
Hello, Swiss Sue 😃!
Congratulations on your first day at the liquor store 🚙 and congratulations on your first day ㊗️ 🎉 I don't know how to say it, but it's beautifully delicious, like a high class potassium 😋.
It's slightly effervescent, has a clean taste and is insanely easy to drink and really delicious.
I used to like mellow types, but this one is really addictive!
However, it might be weak when the food tastes strong.
Slightly gassy
Apple aroma
Muscat and white peach sweetness with juicy acidity
Mineral notes
Clear and very clean taste.
Almost no bitterness or astringency
Very easy to drink
