Previously, I remembered it as a delicious sake with a sour taste.
This time, both smell and taste?
I am sure I have a poor sense of taste.
If I have a chance, I will try drinking it again.
Alcohol level: 15 degrees Celsius
Rice polishing ratio: Kake rice 60%, Koji rice 40
Rice used: 100% Saitama Prefecture sake Musashi
July 22nd: 8 days after opening the bottle
I paired it with dumplings filled with raayu (Chinese chili oil).
As usual?
It wasn't supposed to have this flavor.
I would like to buy it again!
The aroma is discreet and fresh. The mild mouthfeel is accompanied by a gaseous sensation that stimulates the tongue. The mild sweetness of nigori appears from the bitter acidity, which is somewhat like grapefruit, and gradually fades away.
The bitter acidity in the mellowness of the sake is accented by the bitter acidity, making it a delicious sake.
Saitama Prefecture Sake
I will drink it for the first time.
Sake rice: Saitama Prefecture sake Musashi
Polishing rice: 40% koji rice, 60% kake rice
Alcohol: 15 degrees Celsius
When you first take a sip, you will feel a fresh and shwarm mouthfeel.
Then came the tangy dryness and deep umami.
It is rare to find a heavy, heavy-bodied sake with a heavy mouthfeel. I thought it was a sake that could be enjoyed with any food.
This will be my first time in Nagatoro.
I would like to go to Chichibu to see the Ryusei Festival, and there are several sake breweries there as well 🤔.
The top aroma is sweet with a bit of strong acidity.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the gas and a little bit strong acidity with a refreshing sweetness.
It is a bit astringent, and the taste is very sharp.
Then there is a honey-like aroma with a hint of acidity.
Aladdin and Wakata wrote that it had a distinctive aroma like red chine, but I could not understand it well.
Maybe it was just because I was drunk😅.
I thought it was quite interesting because I like acidity.
It was delicious 🍶✨
Good evening, Matsuchiyo 😃.
In my case it was different from red chin too, so there might be some individual differences in the bottles 🤔.
Ryusei in Yoshida is nice ☺️ I have been there to see it too 🚀.
Good morning Aladdin 🌞.
Sorry Aladdin, you are a natto 😅.
I guess it's an individual difference 🤔.
I also feel that Shikishima has a peculiarity that I don't like.
On rainy days, it is best to stay home and have a drink.
Recently, I opened a bottle of Nagatoro, which some people at Sake-no-wa have been drinking, because we had some at home 😄.
The first sip was a bit strange. Wait, wait 🫸.
Second sip 💦.
The scent, which to me only smells like red tincture (for those of you who don't know me from my generation, when I was little I used to heal scrapes and scratches with a sticky coat of red tincture 😅) wanders through my nose and fades out.
If you ignore the red tincture, pear? Melon? A sweet fruit, if you can call it that. It ends with a crisp finish.
No, but the impact of this aroma is so strong that I can't describe it well😱.
Later on, Aladdin posted about another Nagatoro with a distinctive aroma, and I was convinced that this was indeed the case.
Of course, it was a red cocktail for me, but it seemed to go well with my husband's friend, and we finished it off with a delicious finish 😊.
Good morning, Wakata 😃.
This is it!
Red ting 😄is it iodine scent 🤔?
Like Shikishima, there seems to be many people who don't mind it at all, so there may be various fragrance components that vary from person to person in sensation 🤔.
Hi Aladdin😃Yes, this is it‼️Arabashiri🍶Aladdin's analysis has lightened my mind a lot, thank you😊Individual sensory components, sounds profound✨This is a topic I could write a paper on 🤔.
Hi Waka 🐦.
I saw Aladdin's and thought wow, and Waka's too 😳It's hard to separate the aroma from the taste 💦I'd like to smell it, let alone drink it 😁.
Hello, Wakata 😃.
Nagatoro! I've never had it 🥲I'd like to try it to see how it feels 🤗.
Maybe this is 🤔 a magic drink 🍶 that will help you when you have an abrasion on your heart 🥹Mercury Red Chin 🤣.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃Merchen Akachin Nagatoro, too nice 🤣✨I guess my heart wasn't worn out enough yet to ask for merchen akachin. Nagatoro is a good drink for a broken heart. I'll have to try it.
Second drink at standing drinking CHUIN after a long time.
We had a sake from Chichibu, Saitama Prefecture 🍶.
Nagatorogura Junmai Ginjyo Nama Nama Naru Nakadori.
The appearance is a pale, very faintly cloudy silver-green.
It has a characteristic natto-like aroma 😳, followed by caramel, pear-like aroma and a slight cemedine smell.
Natto is forbidden in sake brewing, so it shouldn't smell like that, but there was some characteristic fermentation aroma 🤔.
I wanted to discuss it with the owner, Mr. Kawada, but the restaurant was busy that day and he seemed busy, so I decided not to.
The palate is smooth and refreshingly sour.
The soft sweetness flows smoothly and the light acidity spreads quickly.
After the mid-palate, the lingering bitter astringency lingers roughly on the tongue as the acidity passes through the nose.
I feel that Nagatoro-gura sake always has some kind of characteristic aroma or taste.
I must try drinking it at home.
With these thoughts in mind, I moved on to the next sake.
Hi Aladdin 😃I totally agree with you about the characteristic aroma: ‼️ I drank another color of Nagatoro the other day, but the surprising aroma stopped me 💦I guess everyone feels something unique about this warehouse 🤔.
Good morning, Wakata 😃.
I knew there was something there! I'm glad I'm not the only one: ☺️
It was something different from Shikishima, something with a distinctive aroma... 🤔.
I'd love to take the time to analyze it over a drink at home, but it's hard to find in Kansai 😌.
I had it at the store a while back and thought it was delicious.
I found Nagatoro at a liquor store 💡 spot seems to be in stock 🤘.
The last one I drank was Jungin Nama, and this time it is a light nigori.
I'm not sure about the French word on the back label, but it probably stands for something white. I won't try to look it up 🤣.
White....is that a word sake brewers often use, maybe snow? Is it the wrong time of year 🤣.
The aroma is cooked rice + a bit milky. It's not that strong so it's ok, but if the aroma is too strong, it might be too strong 🤣?
I like the light stimulation from the chili gas!
The sweetness is like a snack food, and a little bit of graininess comes through from the nose. The acidity is green apple-like? The aftertaste is a bit bitter and astringent. The throat is a bit like Yakult.
It is a niche flavor that is both modern and classical.
It's delicious, but it's a very different taste. ‼️ It would be better if it had a little more quirkiness and a little less clinginess.
I went to a ramen shop for lunch...
It's a ramen restaurant called Mito-ya. ✌️
I put garlic on my rice and put nori on top of the rice which was soaked in the soup.
Hi Manachie. 😊
For Iekei Ramen, Sugitaya Chiba is close by.
I go there while keeping an eye on my blood pressure
I am going there while keeping an eye on my blood pressure level. (I find the headquarter ramen to be too salty for me, but the Sugitaya ramen
I feel it is too salty for me, but Sugitaya is the highest level ὠ,
I feel the level is the highest 😋.
Choroki-san, I chose Portuguese in college, so I don't know. 🇵🇹 there were very few people who chose Portuguese 🤣.
It's possible to have a light smudge as it is 🤨.
Hanapin-san, good evening 🌆I've never been to Sugita-ke, so I'll try it when I go to Chiba 🍜.
My blood pressure hasn't been caught so far, but I'm a drinker so I need to be careful 😭.
Nagatorogura Junmai Ginjyo Nama Nigori light nigori.
Nagatoro was recommended by the store.
Since it was my first time drinking it, I started with the light nigori☻
A bit bitter and peculiar 💦.
Is it related to sake musashi 🤔?
I don't know if it has anything to do with the sake Musashi 🤔.
I'll buy a different Nagatoro next time!
Nagatoro Junmai
Birthday ㊗️ present from my sister-in-law 🎁.
My brother-in-law is from Chichibu 😊.
The first day was a little heavy classical
But it still has a clean aftertaste.
It was a nice complement to the taste of the meal... 😌.
The second day was more rounded on the palate
It became very tasty 😋.
The balance between the light acidity and soft umami is exquisite 👍
The balance between light acidity and soft umami is exquisite👍‼️
It is a very tasty food wine.
I think I could drink it every day and not get tired of it.
I want to drink it again 😋.
Best regards, sister-in-law 🤣.
Hi Rafa papa 🌙
I'm afraid I missed your timing, but happy birthday 🥳㊗️
I've been wondering about Nagatoro every time I see it here and there in Sakewa, but it still looks delicious ☺️🍶
The taste from the aromatic yogurt is also yogurt!
It's also fruity, with mango, peach, and a hint of orange, it's tropical yogurt.
I wonder if it will stick with yogurt lovers: ⁉︎
🥂
Nagatoro Junmai Ginjo was super delicious last year!
This year I enjoyed it slowly in a bottle 😋.
It's still delicious! I think I'll get another bottle 🤔.
Surprisingly fruity aroma, thought to be a classic type
The mouthfeel is mild, and the umami of rice spreads slowly.
It is not a modern taste, but it is a sake that you can enjoy drinking deeply.
It tastes a bit peculiar, but maybe that's because it was left at room temperature when it was sold. ......?
Nagatoro Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu
A bottle that has been on my mind recently.
Hiraccio-san is drinking it,
The local liquor store also highly recommends it!
It has a light acidity and a great umami flavor without any cloying taste.
Easy to drink and perfect with octopus and vinegar!
Hi Harry, good evening and nice to meet you. I too am interested in this wine, having heard about it from Sakenowa, but have been unable to buy it at my local liquor store and am aiming to purchase it online. I am looking forward to buying and drinking it.
