I found Nichinichi✨ at a liquor store I stopped by while I was in Osaka last week for a concert.
I've been wanting to try it for a while, so I got my wish! I've been wanting to try it for a long time and now I've got my wish 😄.
I wasn't sure which one to buy, the one made with Yamadanishiki from a specific area or the one made with Yamadanishiki from the same area,
The price was reasonable, so I decided to start with the standard one (with an excuse).
It has a nice bubbly taste and is slightly effervescent! The fine bubbles floating in the glass are a sign of good taste, aren't they?
The aroma is also clear and the mouthfeel is sharp.
The fine bubbles did not interfere with the taste, but rather seemed to eliminate the slight bitterness that might have lingered on the palate, along with the acidity 😊.
It was an urban sake that was easy to drink with low alcohol content and very sharply put together 😋.
Mild whey, muscat, high alcohol, rum, and new wood aromas.
Slightly effervescent mouthfeel.
Freshness, subtle sweetness. Flavor and light acidity spread by the effervescence. Discreet umami and a hint of bitterness. Extremely delicate finish.
Pair with Goro no Yudofu, grilled and soaked eggplant and fresh onion, kinpira, zuwai crab, shrimp cocktail, yamaudo tempura, and sauteed scallops.
Fourth Brewing Period Lot 3
It seems that it still needs more time.
Opened a bottle that had been laid up since last fall.
Of course it is nice and tight and beautiful. I think the flavor has deepened a little after it was laid down, but I am not sure about my memory of the taste.
Sake rice→100% Kame-no-o from Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture
Alcohol content: 11
I drink mostly fluffy drinks, but I was curious to try it and was surprised at how good it tasted.
It has a refreshing taste, but it is different from dry sake.
It has broadened my taste in sake.
I will take this one that I purchased on my summer history trip 😋.
It feels much fresher since it is after drinking San Kwan. I think it has more sweetness and acidity than Yamadanishiki. It is just a little 😓.
There was a nice popping sound when the bottle was opened. It still has a schwarziness after 6 months 😋.
I still like this kind of sweet sake with a moderate alu feel.
And this Kame-no-o is from Sakura City, but it seems to be the one used for Senkou 👀.
The accompaniments were roast beef and roast pork from Kazuya, a butcher store in Shimizu. The roast beef here is ridiculously delicious 😭.
