Impressions
I had been drinking only junmai (pure rice) and had never even seen a sake with brewer's alcohol added.
Until I met Sogen.
It was the moment when I realized that "being slapped in the face" is exactly what it means.
How should I put it?
It is not well-known, reasonably priced, and is like table wine in the wine world.
In the world of "Tenryu Happe," however, Sogen is like that "cleaning monk.
As the saying goes, "Never forget, and you will always hear a sound. The world of sake is still shrouded in mystery, and Sogen is the very echo born of that mystery.
It had been a long time since I saw Sogen.
I was happy to see that there was no more Sogen left in Ishikawa prefecture last spring, and I had been looking forward to its revival.
It is a sharp and deliciously spicy Junmai!
It tastes good at room temperature.
After a few days, it is also good warmed up.
After a week, it tastes much better warmed up!
It is good at room temperature.
Once I use the grill, I use it for a while because it is a pain to wash it.
So, dried sardines overnight. It goes well with fatty cold amberjack, and of course, the combination with cheap blue fish is also very destructive.
Sogen.
Despite its profound flavor and bitterness
This drinkability is probably due to its gentle sweetness.
Enjoy it with hard sardines that have been overcooked. Enjoy the sake.
Previously, we had Kami-Sen, a sake for dinner!
The brewer came to Kyoto Daimaru
I had a chance to taste it!
I asked him about the symbol of the brewery, the Tunnel warehouse.
I asked him about the Tunnel warehouse, the symbol of the brewery, but he told me that there was no way to restore it.
but I was told that there was no way to restore the Tunnel warehouse.
I am very sorry to hear that.
Still, sake brewed with a forward-looking spirit
Still, sake brewed with a forward-looking spirit will soak into your body
Sogen's character and the clean aftertaste that goes along with everyday life
It has an excellent, refreshing aftertaste.
Take your time and savor it in a bottle.
