Torai Tokubetsu Junmai Yamahai Shiborai
Rating 4.4
The new brewery uses local rice, water, rice malt, and "Shirakami yeast" and "lactic acid bacteria" collected from the World Natural Heritage Site "Shirakami Sanchi" in the new brewery. The new brewery will challenge the production of "Aomori Terroir Sake," which is completely made in Aomori, using the Aomori Yamahai method, which is a unique method that focuses on even the bacteria. Aged for six months in ice temperature, it has a profound, rich, and mellow flavor and acidity that goes well with warmed sake.
The aging process gives it a smooth, mellow contour. The sweetness is in the style of sugar candy.
Aomori Sake Series 1
Juicy sweetness like green apple and refreshing acidity✨
Made with 100% "Hana-Sayaka" sake rice produced in Aomori Prefecture. It is a brand name of a sake brewery in Hirosaki City.
- I bought it because I liked the salamander on the back of the label: ❗️ It is delicious with just the right amount of sweetness and a refreshing taste: ‼️
The last sightseeing tour of the day was a visit to "Neputa Village" to see the Hirosaki Neputa and Tsugaru shamisen!
The "jonkarabushi" performed by the shamisen player with his skillful hand movements, and the powerful and powerful ondo of the neputa drummers and their expert baton handling, combined with the traditional artistry of neputa, made for a heart-stopping experience...!
Combined with the traditional artistry of neputa, it was a heart-stopping moment...!
And lastly, "Morai" on the right side.
The aroma is mild and fruity, with melon and pear flavors.
The mouthfeel is light with a pungent, chili pepper flavor, but it is full of umami, with a rich, juicy sweetness and the full flavor of rice.
It also has a refreshing and outstanding sharpness. This was my first time drinking this brand, but it was no less delicious than "Tasake" or "Toyobai" ✨.
We finished with apple and scallop gratin!
It all happened so fast, but each one was a memorable trip to Tohoku 🤗.
3.9 ★★★☆☆☆
Hmmm....oh no! Sweet on the palate! But the alcohol taste is too strong and the sweetness is too much. It's good for a small sip, but if it's bad, it's like paint thinner.
