[The 2nd Annual Bishu Competition Grand Tasting ⑬
Only 3 more reviews to go for the sake tasting 😁.
Next up, here's a taste of the sake 🍶.
Tokachi Junmai Ginjo
The aroma of plump rice, the clear mouthfeel with a hint of sweetness, a gentle finish, and a gentle aftertaste.
Even after drinking many cups of sake, the taste was so pure and clean that it could only come from the rich natural environment of Hokkaido 😁.
Good evening, Mr. Noodle King 🌛.
I've been putting off buying "Tokachi" because there is a local liquor store that sells it, but it's delicious 😁.
It has a different, clear flavor than Shinshu sake, which goes well with the vastness of Hokkaido ✨.
Good evening, nonnon. I had a chance to drink a little bit of Kamikawa Taisetsu Yamahai the other day and wanted to drink it at home 🎯 It's an elegant Yamahai and delicious. I'm jealous 💕.
Souvenir of Hokkaido from my mother. (A pre-requested laugh. (A request made in advance, as it was recommended by my colleague Sakeoji.)
720ml, 2,860 yen including tax.
Polishing ratio 55%.
A good price. He bought it at the Sake Museum.
It has a mild sweet taste! And not only sweet, but also umami! And it is very easy to drink, without the aftertaste of alcohol that is typical of sake!
This is sake from the northern lands.
As one would expect, it is moderately priced, but if I ever go to Hokkaido, I will definitely repeat my visit.
I hope you will too.
This junmai sake is the foundation of the flavor that supports the Hekiunkura "Tokachi" brand. Although it is 70% polished rice, it is a "drinkable sake" in the Tokachi style, with a rich flavor and sharpness that can be enjoyed to the fullest without any cloying taste.
Ingredients: rice (Hokkaido rice), rice koji (Hokkaido rice)
Rice polishing ratio: 70%.
Alcohol content: 15
1760 yen
Message from the master brewer
The brewing water used at the Hekiun Brewery is a medium-hard water with a considerable mineral content. Compared to the soft and delicate flavor of "Midorigaoka Kura," this Junmai is a "goku goku" (heavy drinking) sake for drinkers.
