I wondered what would go well with the combination of sardine simmered in ume plum and shime saba (mackerel) 🤔This time, I chose this one that came back with me from my recent business trip to Aomori. This is a newly launched brand after the disappearance of "Jyobari". I don't know if nigori sake and blue fish go well together, but as the name of this sake suggests, I gave it a try 😁.
Let's start with the standing aroma. It looks and smells like a refreshing lactic acid bacteria drink. It has a crisp aftertaste with a fair amount of sourness in the mouth. It tastes like nigori sake as I imagine it.
I started with sardine stewed in ume plum paste. The combination of the fatty sardines and the sourness of the ume plum with the nigori sake made it smooth to the palate. Delicious🙆.
Next, the shime saba (mackerel). According to Hoshikawa Fish Restaurant, where I usually go, the fish is not vinegared, so the sashimi is almost raw. The tokoro has a strong flavor that does not lose out to the unique flavor of blue fish, and their respective tastes overlap to create a synergistic effect. This is also good👍.
I guess it depends on the type of nigori sake, but I think this sake goes well with habitual ingredients 😘.

Good evening, Komacchan!
I just bought this nigori the other day too.
I heard that it has a sour taste, but it looks delicious 😊.
Nice Du Rai 😆.

Good morning, Matsuchiyo-san. It was a smooth drink, less sweet and more refreshing than I expected. It depends on how one feels, but I had the impression that the acidity was doing a good job 😁.

Gentle fruity standing aroma. Modern sweetness, acidity, and translucent sake quality, but with a crisp, dry finish!
I thought it would be the same as the "Jyobari Legacy" sake I bought with it, but it turned out to be a winner with a flavor and sweetness more to my liking!

Rokka Sake Brewery was in the alcohol section of a department store, and when I tasted it, I liked it so much that I decided to buy it.
After returning home, I tried it again and found it to be delicious!
The aroma, sweetness, umami, and acidity are all robust, and even though it is a raw sake, the mouthfeel is not so heavy because it is about 16 degrees, so I really like the way it spreads gorgeously in my mouth!
It is delicious!

Everyone brings their own drinks and drinks together.
I thought there was no front label, but the back of the back label had a picture on it. I don't know what they are talking about, but you can guess from the second one. They call it a trick label.
First impression is sweet!
But it's a refreshing and gentle sweetness, so you can enjoy the drink without getting bored.
I think I liked it because it was a instant kill.
It was a good choice.

Good morning, Nochi-san. This is the one I've been wondering about: ☺️ the back of the label on the back? The kind that you can see well only when you drink it all?

It's good ice-temperature raw sake, isn't it?

Hello Manachy 😃 Would it help if I told you that the back label is printed on both sides and there is no front label? All of the tries are not bad, so please try them.

Rigel-san: It's very good ice-cold stored, isn't it? Kinshi Masamune is also good and I try to drink it whenever I see it these days.

I had never had a dry sake before, so I bought one to try. Since I was at the level of wondering what a dry sake was, I chose a super dry sake for clarity.
I guess you can taste the sake right after drinking it and the stimulation that comes right after that is called "dry". I liked the way it tasted and snapped me out of it. It was delicious, but I personally preferred the Toyo Cup and Hatsusen that I drank before.
I paired it with cheese, salted squid, kanikama, and natto (fermented soybeans), but the kanikama was the best fit.

It is said that it is a limited label of once-fired sake by To Kai.
The sake brewed with Hanafuki🌾🍶.
The first aroma is refreshing with a hint of acidity.
When you take a sip, you can taste the refreshing acidity and sweetness.
It also has a nice sharpness, just like Aomori's sake.
I like it a lot because it is once-fired but still has a freshness 😘.
This year, I would like to recommend Toirai as well 😌.
