First commercial old wine I ever bought
Aged 24 years
Is it different from the carefully selected old sake I drink once a year at a local sake event?
....I can't tell without comparing the two.
It's not as good as the old sake we drink at our neighborhood sake events every year.............
It has a unique smoky aroma that is the opposite of freshness.
It has a unique smoky aroma that is the opposite of fresh, and it's very addictive!
I'm looking forward to the event 😊.
April 12 Petit Kumamoto Off-line meeting
Second glass: Fudo no Omachi Junmai Ginjo
I asked for it because of the Omachi connection 😁.
This one was sweeter and darker than Jikin, but I think it had a sharp ⚔️
Purchased at Ricer Jack Haradaya in Ichikawa Station. Although I live in Chiba, I had never heard of Chiba sake, so here it is. We had it with bamboo shoots, a spring gift from our neighbor, as a side dish.
The aroma was fresh, and the rice flavor came first with a nice crispness! The aroma is refreshing and the rice flavor comes first with a crispness, and then the complex fermentation flavor spreads later as the aroma passes through the nose. I am a sake beginner🔰 with little experience, so I don't have the same vocabulary as you, and I can't describe it well, but it has a deeper taste than the fruity ones. I like this one too.
The last one is a drinking comparison of "ogara-mi" and "ogara-no-kara".
Fruity and easy to drink
This pink label looks good in spring 🩷.
a lot of information about the brewery
Rice used: Dewa Tsanzan from Yamagata Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio 55
Alcohol: 16%.
A good harmony of sourness and richness
It is carefully brewed to take advantage of the acidity and umami produced by the Yamahai Sake Mother.
The rich and rounded flavor goes well with Japanese cuisine as well as grilled meat and Chinese food.
Warming it up will deepen its flavor.
Junmai Ginjo made with 55% polished rice "Sake Komachi", Akita Prefecture's preferred rice for sake brewing.
When you drink it, you get the impression that it is quite sweet.
After the speed, the umami of the rice follows.
The aftertaste is not long and fades away with some bitterness.
It does not have much freshness like a nama-shu.
It is called Urafudo because the letters on the label are reversed from the regular Fudo.
Easy to drink, fruity, and reasonably priced.
The appearance after pouring was also beautiful with a shimmering blur-like appearance (a mystery).

It is exactly "Strawberry 🍓". It has a good balance of sweetness and sourness, so it has a good sharpness!
Strawberry yogurt 😋 is delicious ❗️
