We had #Okuharima Yamahai Junmai Stronger from #Shimomura Shuzoten in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture.
It tastes like custard cream on the palate and is immediately enveloped by a fruity lactic acidity that is typical of the Yamahai style. It is very tasty, but as the title "strong" suggests, the alcohol content is 20 degrees. It is very intoxicating.
Another version of Okuharima, an interesting sake that is R4BY and is a raw sake. It seems that it is no longer produced and may be valuable.
The aroma is slightly apple-like. The crisp and refreshing acidity spreads out, accented by an astringent taste with a matured umami flavor.
It is easy to match with food. Today's dish is saury.
For some reason, I opened this bottle just before the new moon.
Okuharima Yamahai, which I buy every year.
It is slightly colored.
Lactic acidity and a little malted rice. It has a pineapple flavor with a hint of banana and a little bit of maturity. Already good.
The taste is voluminous, with a subtle but core sweetness. The acidity in the back is also pleasant, and it penetrates into the body at room temperature.
Warm it up.
The depth of earthiness deepens and it is truly delicious.
I'm really grateful that they always serve this. Delicious.
