Fine wine, we were allowed to taste it.
They applied the production method of Madeira wine, a fortified wine from Portugal.
By adding alcohol during fermentation, the fermentation is stopped and the sugar is left behind, resulting in a strong sweet taste. The wine is then heated and aged by the heat of the hot spring.
It is amber in color and has a sour and sweet taste like dried fruit. Surprisingly, it is not too frizzy. It seems to go well with cheese and other strong flavors!
Ichinokura is a major brewery in Osaki, Miyagi Prefecture. The non-examined honjozo is a standard product suitable for evening drinking. It is said to have originated when sake was graded for taxation purposes and they dared to propose an unexamined product.
At an oyster-filled izakaya in Sendai, this is a cup of hot, non-inspected honjozo with seared, smoked oysters thrown in. The broth from the oysters makes it taste like a sumashi soup. Such a way to drink it ✨.

Tonight I have a souvenir drink from a colleague from my Northeastern days - ⤴️🍶
Mellow, crisp, fruity🌸🍶✨️
Sweet, delicious 🐴, spicy and oicy❗️
It's very tasty.
It is a gift. Thank you very much.
It is described as dry.
Indeed, it has a refreshing taste.
Compared to other sakes, is the aroma a little weak? Is it weak or is that its character?
Thank you for the sake.
