Last weekend I was out of sake to go with oden, so I went to the local supermarket and bought a 300㎖ bottle for the sake. It has a sweet and refreshing taste. It's good at hiya, but it tastes even better when it's warmed up to human skin temperature to increase the sweetness. However, I thought it would be too clean to pair with oden. I chose this sake because I wanted to keep it light, but.... If I wanted to warm it up, I could have used a more robust Junmaishu or even Honjozo. I'm still learning💦.

On a trip to Shiga, I visited Hirai Shoten. The quaint appearance of the store and the display of products were a sight to behold. Today's bottle was the "Sake Brewer's 3003000 Year Old" (pictured left). The aroma is melon, apple, and pineapple, and the first sip is a punch. It has a mellow sweetness, but the acidity and bitterness make it crisp and refreshing. Delicious. Well, Shiga Prefecture was fun! I'm also looking forward to Kosetsu (I heard it's read as Fouche) on the right side of the photo 😄.

Sake from a brewery founded in 1658. It is said to be brewed with brewer's yeast. The caricature-like frogs are adorable. The aroma has a clean core. It has a clean core aroma, a firm sweetness, and a full-bodied, delicious acidity that is unique to sake brewing. It is delicious both as a lingering drink and with food.

Give an illustration of the 330 hands that make sake. Jacket value ... 5/10 A black bottle with a black jacket, and this font looks like an athletic club room. Ki ... 10/20 The smell is like barley shochu, but the more I sniff it, the more I feel the Alc. It makes you think "Oh, it's sweet" at first, and then it disappears. Sei... 11/20 The texture is good, but the taste is lacking. Turning... 10/20 The taste on the tongue is still thin, but the minerality is good enough. Yui ... 12/20 It has an exquisite aftertaste of 33% burnt and 67% pungent, smooth, and smooth. Cost performance ... 6/10 Costa ... 6/10. 1,660Yen (I think...). I am not a fan of SAKE that claims to be dry, but it's not that it's not good. 54 points

The straight minerality that pulls you in from the starting point is commendable. But what I want is umami and flavor, and I guess there is a world out there that I, a know-it-all, don't understand!

10/25 Purchased at a brewery in downtown Otsu Asajio This time, the special junmai sake rice is Ginfukiyuki, which is sometimes seen in Shiga Prefecture. Fruity aroma with a hint of acidity 🍋. The mouthfeel is refreshing with a cool acidity. But it has a cool, refreshing acidity. Aromatic rice flavor and slight bitterness give it a robust taste. It has a robust taste. It was an easy-to-drink food sake with no peculiarities!

Hello, kuruma-fu🐦! I see you visited Hirai Shoten! It's very rare to find a sake brewery in an arcade 😁.

Hi Pon! The Inada Sake Brewery in Tenri City was also located in an arcade, but maybe some of the older breweries are like this. I am very interested in the appearance, which would be traditional: ✨️

4. asakaya raw frog. The mouthfeel is firm with the acidity typical of the sake yeast and the umami of Yamada Nishiki, but the dry taste leaves no aftertaste. Yamada-Nishiki, 60%, special junmai, sake brewing, about 2,000 yen, Otsuka Sake Brewery in Honmachi.

It's soooo good. ...... I bought this sake just because I liked the bottle and the label, but I was surprised how much I liked it. I love this kind of sake that has a deep umami of rice and a strong acidity. Not only that, but it also had some flavors that I had never tasted before, which deepened my interest in sake. I would like to try other sake from Hirai Shoten.
