The third drink was from a sake on the menu. I had never heard of it before. It's from Gunma," I ordered. It's an orikiji. Fruity. The taste is mellow. The acidity of the aftertaste is moderate. It was delicious. It's almost time to go, so I'm sorry to leave.
100% sake rice called Maikaze is used.
Despite being drunk at 13°C, it tastes robust.
A little sweet.
It will taste sweeter if the temperature goes up.
Then it tasted like pineapple.
No, it's banana!
Delicious!
The moment it enters the mouth, it is a unique sake with a freshness like a grape with a strong acidity that bursts forth with sweetness.
The sweetness and umami come a little later after the freshness.
It is an interesting sake with a beautiful combination of sake-like and fruity flavors.
This is my first sake.
Otone Shuzo.
Jizake Saotomi Koshihikari Junmai Sake: Mochigo no Akkatsu Nigori Sake.
I picked it up at Takahashiyo Sake Shop because it was one of the last bottles available. 1,650 yen.
I carefully opened the bottle following the instructions on the bottle-opening instructions, carefully letting off the gas several times, but being very careful not to let it bubble up too much.
By the time I finally poured it, it had taken 7 minutes.
The sweetness of the rice, the strong crackling gas, the slight sourness, and the bitterness.
On the second day, the sweetness increased dramatically and the bitterness decreased. It was a very tasty sake.
