Sake Go Around Kobe in Competition (1st house)
Yasuragi (former 2nd class sake), Yutori (former 1st class sake)
According to the president, Yasuragi is more popular among the locals and is a fantastic sake.
The entrée was curry with minced pork cutlet (🍛).
Purchased during a visit to Tanba Sasayama in Hyogo Prefecture in late fall of last year.
Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku are used for the sake rice.
The sake is made by the Tamba Toji.
The initial aroma is faintly of rice. It has nothing to do with fruity aroma.
In the mouth, you can enjoy the robust flavor of rice accompanied by a slightly strong alcohol taste.
The aftertaste is rather long.
Perhaps due to the soft water of Tamba, it has a mild dry taste.
As the name "country sake" implies, it has an honest flavor that is only as good as the rice used to make it.
Thank you for the sake.
Sake that made me listen to Beethoven's Countryside, apparently.
Mellowly sweet and umami, swelling in the mid-palate, and harmonizing well through the finish.
