Good evening, KazKaz 😃.
I drank Igarashi at an event in Saitama and was surprised to find that it was sweet and delicious despite its hardcore name😳I have since certified it as a hidden good sake😄.
Although thought to be refreshing, this is quite peculiar and surprising. It has a slightly hiney feel to it. It has umami and acidity. Is it because it is a pure sake? Rice polishing ratio 65%, alcohol content 17%.
I had a dinner at Kazu, a country house about 5 minutes walk from Kamifukuoka station in Fujimino-shi, Saitama, which I saw in Rui Yoshida's bar wanderings. I am glad that I can walk there from my house!
The first drink was Igarashi from Igarashi Sake Brewery in Hanno City, my hometown in Saitama Prefecture. Fruity and beautiful sake. I heard that Matsuzaki has started to carry it, so I want to buy some next time.
An authentic and beautiful sake.
Light sweetness and acidity, well-balanced without any cloying taste, high level of satisfaction.
Goes well with food.
Igarashi, the pride of Saitama: ‼️
The mouthfeel is from a piquant freshness,
The deep and voluminous umami of the sake's traditional sake yeast yeast is a nice touch 🤤.
The moment you put it in your mouth, the taste is very satisfying,
The taste is very satisfying at the moment you put it in your mouth, but the aftertaste is refreshing 🧐.
The pleasant bitterness that lingers afterwards is a wonderful design. ‼️
This is one you won't be able to stop drinking: ‼️ delicious 😋😋😋😋.
This summer sake was purchased at Echigoya in Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture!
It tasted sweet yet refreshing, just like summer sake, and I couldn't stop drinking more. ✨️
Saitama Prefecture, a neighbor of Tokyo, ranks 4th in national sake shipments by prefecture
We have many favorite and delicious sake such as Hanahayo, Sairai, Nagatorogura, Kagamiyama, etc. It is very helpful because they are tasty and easy to buy!
My favorite liquor store now carries Igarashi, which has broadened my range of sake!
This sake is made from sake musashi, a rice suitable for sake brewing in Saitama Prefecture, and is unfiltered and unpasteurized, making it even fresher, fresher and tastier!
It is fresh, refreshing, and delicious, and you can drink more and more of it even in the hot summer!
