We will also have Junmai Daiginjo, a collaboration product of Tachibanakura Shuzo✕Tsuruya.
It's a cosy 500ml Junmai Daiginjo made from 100% Miyamanishiki.
Of course it tastes great!
You can taste the deliciousness of the rice and the clean water of Saku's Daiginjo.
Rice polishing ratio: 49% (100% Miyamanishiki)
Alcohol content: 15 degrees
Junmai-shu (pure rice wine) sold in collaboration with Tsuruya, a major supermarket in Nagano Prefecture.
Kikuhide's low-alcohol junmai-shu is easy to drink, with a 13% milling rate and 59% junmai-shu, but it's so cheap that you can buy it for 500ml for around 500 yen!
In the mouth, it has a sweet rice flavor that is typical of Junmai-shu, and it is a bottle that cuts cleanly.
I'll tell you a little story about last night.
We had dinner at the office on time.
We didn't even go to the self-imposed restrictions that my boss has been into lately (not that it's a bad place, but in this day and age, it's self-imposed), and as usual, we came home without drinking enough.
When I was wondering what to do, I found a bottle of No.4 and a piece of cultured sea bream which I didn't drink yesterday.
Oh, it's such a waste not to eat it.
So I drained the water and salted it as usual, and prepared for a drink.
We also had some Gouda cheese, so we were in a good mood and relieved our stress.
Kikuhide. A sake from Nagano prefecture. I think it's called Junmai-shu (I forgot to take a picture of the label on the bottom of the bottle).
This time we'll drink it cold.
It has a refreshing aroma with a hint of green apple.
The sweetness of the rice is clear and crisp. There is no bitterness or astringency.
It has a good amount of umami. There is a slight sourness...or is it the aroma?
In a good sense, it is a sake that is not like Nagano...is it?
It is like a refined version of the sweet rice sake of Tohoku.
It's perfect with sea bream! Cheese is one more thing I feel is a waste.
It's not to everyone's taste, but it's a delicious sake.
If you can drink amazake but don't like sake, this might be good for you.
Nihon Meimon Shakai Junmai Shakai Hanabukai 2nd bottle in June
It is a low-alcohol sake that has a high rate of appearance recently.
It is made of "Hitogokoro" rice from Nagano prefecture.
Tamayo, the grandchild of Kutouryu, is a bloodline.
The mouthfeel is a little rich and delicious, but the finish is refreshing and refreshing, just like a summer sake.
It is easy to drink and well-balanced.
