MY souvenirs from my trip to Tottori. Visit a local liquor store and examine the local sake. There are many sake breweries in Tottori that I like, so I was torn.
In the end, I think I'll end up with Hiokizakura.
R5BY in warm water. The color is slightly yellow.
It has a firm texture, and perhaps because it was poured directly from the Chirori, it has a slightly strong sense of sharpness. There is a sense of maturity in the aftertaste.
Slightly colored liquor.
The aroma is complex, with a hint of juku.
There is a spice aroma like cumin, but is this something wrong with my nose?
At room temperature, it has a strong character. It has a strong acidity and a strong texture. However, the earthiness and umami power that can be felt at the back of the bottle is so strong that it makes you want to warm it up as soon as possible.
I warmed it up.
It's wonderful. The flavor is indescribably rich. Not too sweet, but you can really enjoy the nastiness and umami.
This is really good. You definitely need to warm it up, and not many people enjoy it warmed up, but it's good.
All-American Sake with a Reason
Partially made with out-of-grade rice (28%).
It is a bargain for the price.
The sake is made in Tottori Prefecture, which is known for its masculine sake quality, and it was a great answer to our selfish request for a reasonably priced sake that can be drunk cold.
