I drank two bottles of sake, which I had never drunk before, at an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) I went to for the first time with the director, but I forgot. Somehow mind. What prefecture did I go to? I can't remember any information.
Tomorrow I have to go to work on foot, so I'm going home to drink again.
Mrs. Kikuchi bought a bottle of sake. I'll have some.
It has just the right balance of sweetness and sake-like flavor. It's delicious.
Elimination of drunk driving! Drunk driving. If you drink, you can't ride. If you drink, don't ride.
I went to Murata, the wine and sake shop I always go to, because they were having a tasting and sale at their warehouse 😁.
Well, the lees is accumulating there!
Shake the bottle a little to make it cloudy and open the bottle!
The sound of the bottle is always a pleasant one!
Recently, there are four-pack bottles with crowns, so I enjoy this sound (I wonder if the brewer understands this?).
Sake temperature: 9 degrees Celsius.
The aroma is milky, with a hint of cream-like ginjo aroma.
The mouthfeel is sweet but not sticky and soft.
And there is a chirichiri-ness to it.
I only tasted about half of the sake, so all I could think was "delicious ❗️", but I was right to buy it!
I have another bottle to enjoy!
The warehouse was sold at a liquor store.
Bodai Hashiro, all Omachi rice, this one is only available at this time of the year ✨.
Gozenshu, which had a classic image...is quite modern
Delaware-like grape aroma and sweetness comes through after a refreshing sip.
I think I'll visit the brewery again ✨
Drinking iron from Okayama
Taking advantage of paid holidays...
Since it was described as nigori, I thought it would have a mild taste, but it was refreshing!
I could feel the spirit of the brewer.
I drank it in no time!
We also visited Tsuyama Castle.
The 5th Shinmame Festival, the 5th Kami Ongaku Mie Shinshu Matsuri㊱.
Slide sideways to the Gozenshu booth. The brewer was there. They have been all Omachi brewery for a few years now.
After listening to the explanation, I decided to compare a freshly squeezed Bodaihashi with a one year aged Bodaihashi.
Gozenshu Bodai-Hashiroshi Nigori Unmatured Sake
Freshly pressed a week ago. It has a fresh mouthfeel with a juicy acidity. Sour and milky at the same time. Alcoholic and bitter.
Gozenshu 1859 Bodai Hashiroshi Yumachi, fire-brewed
This one has been aged for a little over a year. The wild and powerful flavor of the Omachi has been rounded out with a supple and strong flavor that is well balanced with the acidity. It has a deep flavor that can also be served warmed. Oh, this is also delicious. Forgot to take a picture...
The pop-up says there are only two kinds of sake, but they brought another bottle.
The third souvenir from the Okayama Marathon
I immediately bought a bottle of Bodai-Hashiroshi Gozenshu, which I had wanted to try, because it is a heated sake!
It was getting quite cold, so I had it lukewarm.
The color is a slight champagne gold.
It has a hint of acidity when served cold, but when heated, it is a nice, fluffy sake!
Good as a food sake!
Great sake!
