For the second glass, I chose another Shizuoka sake from the app members-only sake list, which was also a first for me.
It was thicker, sweeter, and more flavorful than the first cup of Kuroryu Ichikurai. The balance of sweet and spicy was just the way I like it. It was a great match with the pickled firefly squid that I ordered because of the name 🎵.
I recently found Isozumo at a fish restaurant I often visit, so I had it!
Seishun seems to be one of the bottles named by the brewer who was inspired by Samuel Ullmann's poem about youth.
The aroma was not clear.
It has a clean mouthfeel, a clear, subtle sweetness, umami, and a crisp acidity that finishes it off nicely. Since it is Isobojimai, we had it with red meat and shellfish sashimi 😆 Delicious!
