We enjoy Kuranosuke-san's family's sake on a riverbed in Kyoto.
I was a little prepared for this one because I did not like the previous one from Sasaki Shuzo, but this one is easy to drink and I never get tired of it.
I had it with a small pot of pork.

At the moment of drinking, the aroma of rice spreads and sweetness is felt, but the sharpness of dryness and lightness comes later. ⚔️ It is easier to drink when it is a little lukewarm.
The rice-like aroma at the top is a little strong and not to my liking 🌾.

I stopped by Kyoto on a whim and bought this at the brewery. It is a well-known sake of Kuranosuke Sasaki.
It has a ginjo aroma. Slightly dry but with a fair amount of sweetness. The quality of the sake is robust. It is very rich.
The yeast used is "Kyo no Koto," a ginjo yeast. The ethyl caproate is not my favorite yeast.

I finished my work in Kyoto on a business trip,
I visited a restaurant that a local colleague had held down for me.
Tuna and Sake💦🥳🥳🥳.
It's a very chic arrangement. It's very exciting.
I don't think tuna is normally associated with this area, but the sashimi is delicious!
The sashimi is delicious!
This is the local sake...
Hmm? It's a little bland.
I wonder if it was overshadowed by the accompaniments.
If you pause for a moment, you can taste the flavor.
I guess this is an aperitif.
