Since I drank up the Shinkai Sanjo so quickly,
I had another bottle of Shiga sake.
This is a light nigori (nigori is a little bit thicker than the original) sake from Omi Tohei Sake Brewery in Higashiomi City.
This sake is made by Masumoto Sake Brewery in Higashiomi City.
You may not find this sake outside of Shiga.
By the way, although not in Higashiomi, I stopped by my favorite museum, Lake Biwa Museum, so I'll introduce some of my lake friends with a few photos 💕.
At the center is the red cheeked bite with a trademark.
It is served cold.
The color is a gentle light nigori.
The top aroma is of blue melon and white peach with a gentle fragrance.
The overall finish is dry with a strong alcohol attack,
The sweet and sour aroma of blue melon and white peach mingles with the richness of milky rice, and the taste sublimates into a rich sweet and sour umami like dried fruit in the mouth.
When heated, the sharp alcohol taste settles down, and the balance between the mild and mellow rice flavor and the enhanced bitterness and the thickened mouthfeel is indescribable.
This feeling is 👍 in the middle.
I imagine it is like a softer version of sakuten.
I must drink Furozumi too!
Hi Hirupeko 😃 We are kind of attracted to Shiga sake 🍶.
We are somewhat attracted to Shiga sake 🍶🥹I was able to drink "Soma no Tengu" for the first time this year and it was delicious 😙.
Hi Jay & Nobby. Welcome to the world of Shiga sake 🤗Tochigi sake is good, but Shiga sake is also full of delicious sake. Please try all kinds of sake 💕.
Delicious!
The umami, sourness, and sweetness come with a bang, and surprisingly, everyone leaves after the first round, leaving only a slight spiciness in the aftertaste.
It tastes like a model of umami-guchi.
The acidity is strong for a Shiga sake.
I don't think it goes well with sashimi, but I think it can be served by itself or with a wide range of simmered and grilled dishes.
I just don't know where to go to drink it 😂.
