The series I got from my parents' house ④.
Tsururei Standard
Soft mouthfeel
From a clean first impression, the umami with body spreads and finishes sharply.
The best part of Tsururei is its "light and delicious taste.
Sake quality that goes well with any kind of food
Ponzu (vinegared soft-shelled albacore) as a snack
This month is the month of my own Nara Sake Fair, and since last week, it has been "Asano Sake Shop -> Niigata wo Kome"! My own Niigata Sake Fair is also being held at the same time (lol).
Tsururei is delicious!
I thought Koshitanrei was an expression of taste, but it was the name of the rice....
It is fruity. It was definitely delicious!
The mouthfeel is very gentle and the umami gradually expands.
The clear sweetness lasts for a long time and finishes gently.

Tart and smooth on the tongue.
Is it so-so sweet and firmer?
It is not smooth, but it leaves a kind of a tangy taste!
3.5 stars
At "Sake and Otsumami CHUIN Shinmachi", a standing drinking establishment in Shinmachi, Nishi-ku, Osaka City.
The owner, Mr. Kawada, was discharged from the hospital and reopened for business after a long time!
I hadn't been able to visit him at all recently, but I visited to see him to celebrate his discharge from the hospital.
After greeting him for the first time in a while, we had a quick drink (1).
We started with "Tsururei Omachi Special Junmai" from Aoki Shuzo (Minamiuonuma City, Niigata Prefecture).
It is a special junmai sake with 55% polished rice and 17% alcohol by volume.
It has been stored in a snow cellar for about five months!
The appearance is clear crystal, almost transparent.
The aroma is sweet and clean with isoamyl acetate.
Ripe and sweet banana, melon, and a hint of acidity like ripe apricots.
Slightly refreshing with a hint of chervil.
Slightly rice aroma with a hint of white dumplings.
In the mouth, it is smooth and silky.
A refreshing sweetness and a gentle yet crisp acidity.
Strong attack with 17% alcohol by volume.
The lingering aftertaste leaves a tingling sensation on the tongue.
While the robust flavor is very mellow, the sense of rice is beautiful and delicious. ☺️
I want to become an expert who can select such sakes in a natural way 🍶.
Good evening, Aladdin-san 🌛.
I was worried when I saw on Insta that Mr. Kawada had another surgery, but I am relieved to see him back in the store 🥰.
I've seen "Yukio" quite often, but "Tsururei" is hard to find: ✨️
Good evening, Mr. Jive 😃.
I know Mr. Kawada is going through a lot, but you seemed to be in good health!
It was a short time, but it was intoxicating to talk with you over drinks after a long time ☺️🍶.
I certainly don't see much Tsururei at liquor stores either 🤔.
