We had a little sashimi left over from our lunch (sashimi platter) at Miyagawa Kappo, so we had another kind of sashimi.
Lunchtime drinking is the best 😋🥰.
The owner served us oysters in soy sauce.
It's a delicious, slightly dry sake with a mellow flavor and a pleasant stimulation on the tongue from the raw sake.

I bought it thinking it was a pinkish liquor. In fact, it was a clear yellowish liquor.
It has a thick and mild mouthfeel. The aroma is subdued. Mild sweetness, acidity, and rice flavor. With an alcohol content of 13%, it is easy to drink.
Lightly sparkling. It has a strong effervescence. It has a delicious rice flavor and a sweet sake-like aroma. The sweetness and acidity are moderate. The taste is more robust than expected.

My mother's family lives in Tsujido, Fujisawa City in Kanagawa Prefecture, so I have been going there often since I was a child.
This gift made me realize that sake is good in Kanagawa, too.
I will study it from now on.
Izumihashi Sake Brewery in Ebina, Kanagawa, Japan, which uses 100% Yamadanishiki and starts with rice cultivation. Summer Yago 13!
It is refreshing and has a soft sweetness that comes afterwards. I want to drink it more and more on hot days....
The label is cute too!
6/10
Izumihashi's summer sake.
Yago because it is summer sake.
13 because Yago molts 13 times.
Then, what is MOMO?
It is said to mean peach color, because the noge of the rice used, Jinriki, is peach-colored. What is noge? The questions are endless.
It is a low-alcohol sake made from the same sake yeast, so it is easy to drink because of its acidity.
It is a light sake, but it also has umami.

Lingering nutty and chocolate-like flavors
Impression: Rich umami type
The aroma is moderate, but nutty and apricot-like. There is also a slightly refreshing aroma.
The taste is gentle, with a good amount of sugar and lactic acidity. The high alcohol content and the koji-like taste of the raw sake make it a little sweeter in total.
Although it was not felt on the attack, the nuttiness derived from the sake's raw yeast gradually emerges as a lingering taste.
Repeat Score 1.5
