I was allowed to bring it to a personal farewell party for a senior colleague who has been a great help to me.
I took a shot 😅 and said it was "one of my most favorite sakes.
I asked for half hot sake at a sushi restaurant I wasn't that familiar with 🙇♂️
The other senior member of the group, who was also participating in the event, said he was used to drinking Niigata sake, so this was a sake he had never experienced before. As for the hot sake, they said it was the best heated sake they had ever had... 😉.
All of Etsukaijin's sakes are excellent cold, chilled, or hot (personal preference), and they are also great warmed 💕.
Among them, this Omachi is easy to drink, and again, it is particularly well-balanced 😊.
This was a bottle at a small restaurant that serves Japanese food!
I was allowed to drink a variety of other sake, but this time it was a brand I had never had before, so I decided to post it!
I was surprised at the brands that others have posted as well😳
This time it was served as left to us, and since it was to go with the food, it was warmed up!
The rice flavor of the junmai sake was concentrated by heating it up and it was delicious!
I don't usually drink heated sake, so I can't really evaluate it, but it went well with the food they served!
3.8/5
Hi Satou!
Yesterday, we had our first Etsukaijin for lunch after a long time 🤗I don't drink much Kagawa sake, so I ordered it 😅It was delicious and matched the food 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby
Personally, I don't have a clear image of Kagawa sake, I thought it was only Sanuki Kuraudai 💦 lol.
I don't usually drink this type of sake, so I was just thinking 🧐.
This is the first time I've had Kaijin's Nama Sake!
It is not lightly cloudy and is very clear!
You can taste the crisp mouthfeel and the freshness of the raw sake, while the full body, umami and sweetness of the rice, which is typical of Kaijin, are well 👍️
There is also a slight gassy feeling.
Delicious!
This was my second drink of the day. The other day, I had a very good Etsukaijin junmai sake (Akaban Omachi) warmed up, and this time I had a junmai ginjo (Hachitan-Nishiki) lightly nigori raw, served cold. It was great with cold vegetables! But my memory has drifted. Just a reminder of what I drank.
The owner of the restaurant is from Kagawa, so we selected this brand.
The taste was clean and refreshing, with a complex aftertaste from the strong and complex flavor unique to Omachi.
The Omachist's wife was satisfied with the taste.
My first sake from Kagawa Prefecture.
Tomorrow, I will drink it lukewarm.
Etsukaijin Oseto
Yamahai Junmai Sake Unfiltered Nama
Maruo Honten(Kotohira Town, Kagawa Prefecture)
Takamatsu Tachiyumikotoko.
I had an image of Etsukaijin as heated, junmai, and aged, but this was cold sake, ginjo, and raw. It was surprisingly easy to drink, with a strong bitterness and ginjo aroma.
