Japanease Sake Subscription Service September at my parents' house.
This is the second brand.
The white one on the left is Celebration, polished up to 40%.
The peach-colored one on the right is Yamadanishiki polished to 35%.
The Celebration is a refreshing but tasty sake with a rich flavor.
The Yamada-Nishiki one is more flavorful and has a very good balance of sourness and bitterness, which I prefer.
Thanks again for the food this month 😆.
I was attracted by the cute bottle and bought it at Cardi's.
It has a light, dry, slightly cloudy taste. The alcohol content is 14% and it comes in a drinkable size of 200ml.
Autumn sake by Kyoto Fushimi Shotoku Shuzo: Hiyakioroshi (cold sake).
Polishing ratio 60%. 17% alcohol by volume.
It is a vintage of 2023 as it was purchased previously and laid down for two years.
Slightly dry. It has a rounded and full flavor with no thorns, as is typical of autumn sake. It was served cold, but it might have more aroma if it were served at room temperature.
A gift from my wife in Kyoto.
The fact that it is a special junmai is wonderful.
It is the type that goes well with meals and doesn't interfere with them at all.
I guess it is dry without being boring to drink.
This is the sake we drank tonight. Sake from Fushimi often has a strong flavor, but this sake has a very gentle taste.
It has a very gentle taste, but that does not mean that it is light in flavor.
As one would expect from a prestigious sake brewer, this is a sake that can be enjoyed without getting bored! You can enjoy this sake without getting tired of it!
Sake purchased in Fushimi. The label says "the spring", so I saved it for a visit to a relative's house later in the GW season.
It has a robust flavor with a hint of sweetness. Perfect with spring vegetables.
I would like to try other seasonal sakes as well!
On my way home from work, I went to a sake festa.
Purchased a set of refreshing summer-inspired sakes to compare.
Everything was delicious, but I especially liked the shortcake.
The yakitori from Torisei and sushi from Daiki Suisan were excellent, and the space full of stores was stylish and comfortable.
