I used to love "Natsuko's Sake," a TV drama based on the manga on which this sake was modeled, and I had always thought the job of toji (chief brewer) was a good one.
The sake was moderately heated and soaked into my cold body. It was mellow and easy to drink. I would like to try it cold next time.
Tokushima Yamadanishiki, Hiroshima Hachitanishiki 60%, Kurauchi yeast 15°, +6
The taste is light and refreshing. It is light and refreshing, but has a complex aftertaste with a full-bodied flavor that is typical of a sake brewed with sake yeast.
It's been a long time since I've had Rumiko's sake.
I've never seen nigori before, so I asked for it.
I have a strong image of dryness,
but the well-balanced carbonation makes it easy to drink.
Rumiko's Sake" was created after his wife was so impressed by the manga "Natsuko's Sake" that she wrote a letter to the manga artist Akira Oze.
75% Hachitan-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture is used.
Almost no aroma, sharp, dry and umami, with a bitter finish and a nice sharpness.
Versatile enough to be served with any meal!
Good evening, first series drop 🍶.
Rumiko's Sake Junmai Sake Kubinokami 2024BY✨
Brewed by the wife of Natsuko's sake (Rumiko) 💁.
I haven't read Natsuko's sake properly, and I'll read it next time. It's paired with Spanish mackerel marinated in saikyo miso for dinner: ☺️
The aroma is mild, almost scentless. The taste is a clear, transparent sake with moderate acidity and a soft sweetness of rice. It is a perfect match for a meal with its crisp and dry aftertaste while maintaining a smooth harmony when paired with Spanish mackerel in a position where it does not disturb the meal.
