Drinking R5BY at home.
When served cold, it has a clear and mellow flavor, with little raw or Yamahai sensation.
When heated, it has a mild flavor and the acidity of the Yamahai is apparent. 55°C is my favorite temperature for the balance of sweetness and sharpness.
I guess so... 🙃 I thought the image of sake from Hyogo Prefecture was all light and dry! I was expecting it to be very light and dry, but it's gentler than I expected. Is it because it's a draft sake? Is it because it's made in the mountains? Is Hyogo Prefecture a mountain town or a village? A village? (←Heppoko is actually from Osaka) ☺️☺️. At the time, I was passing through without even knowing it was a delicious sake rice. LOL!
At our favorite pub ❗
Meat dishes were served and I wanted a spicy sake, so I ordered Okuharima❗❗
I ordered Okuharima, thinking it would be so spicy that it would cut me in half, but it was spicy but not that spicy ❗
Oh, I see! It is "mellow dry", and the mellowness is well expressed. ‼️
This is good as well 😋 It is a great embodiment of what the label says 😉.
At Himeji station on the way back from the Shirasagi Sake Festival. The number of sake I drank is 239, so I guess there's more variety than that.
All sake from Hyogo Prefecture: ‼️
I couldn't take as many photos as I wanted at the Shirasagi Sake Fest, so the 4th one is the list of the day's sake 😅.
Dry taste. The umami of the rice is clean and firm. Rich acidity. A good sake that you will never get tired of drinking. Yume Nishiki. With fugu (blowfish) and
