New Year's party with Mr. R and his housekeeper.
I drink when recommended. Without knowing the awesomeness or my limits.
It was solid and tasty hot sake.
Today I was able to heat sake without spilling it.
What is Hekiunzo?
Good evening, Nochi-san 😃.
Hekiun Brewery is the second brewery in Hokkaido founded by Kamikawa Taisetsu Brewery at Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine ❗and thus the name of the region "Tokachi" is written 😉 There is also Midorigaoka Brewery in Kamikawa town and Goryonokura in Hakodate😊.
Good morning, Noodle Sake King. I see that you are referring to the famous University Collaboration Brewery. It would have been easier to understand if you had said so. It's more of a lab than a brewery, isn't it?
Purchased at a kiosk at Obihiro Station.
It is a sake made from Hidaka's Comet rice, a brand I have never seen before even though I visit Obihiro regularly.
It is easy to drink with a refreshing sweetness and a nice sharpness.
This time it is Tokachi with Cheese.
Tokachi with Cheese is a brand name brewed at the Hekiun Brewery of the Kamikawa Daisetsu Brewery in Tokachi.
The sake with Cheese is a 2-year-old Yamahai brewed sake, and is available in three colors: green, blue, and yellow.
Lightly chilled.
The color is a gentle yellow.
The nose has fresh grapes, yogurt, and walnuts.
The mild mouthfeel is followed by a fruity grape and yellow peach-like flavor with a milky, milky lactic acidity and a delicious taste like freshly pounded rice cakes.
The lingering lactic acidity can be enjoyed while the aftertaste is refreshing due to a subdued bitterness.
The overall impression is one of freshness,
It is hard to believe that the rice is 80% polished.
Very elegant Yamahai 😊.
We had it for Christmas.
Paired it with a pizza 🍕 that we took out from a nearby Italian restaurant.
The first sip felt a little stronger than the sake, but after the second sip, the balance of both flavors blended well in the mouth and it was delicious 😋.
As I write this,
The pizza is gone in seconds 😭
What a wonderful Christmas Eve 🎄✨
Peco, MerryXmas🎅🎄🎄
I've never seen this sake before 😳That looks delicious Yamahai. ❣️with Cheese makes me want to pair it with cheese, doesn't it? Nice choice for a warm cheese pizza 🍕 in today's cold weather👍!
Merry Christmas, Pon 🎄✨I've been paying attention to Kamikawa Taisetsu as I've had many opportunities to drink it outside these days 🧐It would be interesting to have a mountain waste to go with the unique cheeses of Hokkaido 😊.
Merry Christmas 🎄✨Kanon, Merry Christmas 🎄✨We had a sugar party with alcohol terror and pizza terror 😆That pizza was delicious, I wish I could have had a little more 😭
I would say that it is a sake to be served with yakiton (grilled pork and vegetables), but I like the fact that it is refreshing and yet does not interfere with a little bit of the umami. I personally like the fact that it is not too bitter and refreshing.
