Sake #2 purchased at Tsudanuma Seven: I finally bought the Jyuseki I had been interested in for a while, but put off drinking it because it was fire-aged, but I'm kind of grateful that it doesn't overwhelm the fridge 😌.
I am glad that it is fire-roasted, but the slight fruity taste is not so tiring to drink and is suitable for drinking at a leisurely pace...whether that is a good thing or not. It was delicious and I'd like to pick up Jyuseki again.
Hello, freelancer first generation man 😃.
Jyuseki! We had a summer sake celebration last year 🤗You're right, fire-brewing is a great help when the fridge is tight👍Lazy drinking at GW sounds good too😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby ^^!
I'm sure you can afford a dedicated fridge if you're fierce enough to own one, but we don't have anything like that 😖I'd love more holidays where I can drink myself lazy 😱.
I feel like drinking it when I take the bullet train from Kyoto. I liked Jyuseki so much I may give it to you again at a later date.
Fruity aroma, gentle and sweet soft water typical of Fushimi, sweetness, richness and a slight sharpness. I like it.
All Kyoto-produced Ingredients
Smooth and graceful Junmai Ginjo
Matsuyama Shuzo, a brewery located on the banks of the Hori River in Fushimi, Kyoto Prefecture, has a 100-year history of brewing sake, and the "Jyuseki" is the new story of the rebirth of this 100-year-old brewery.
This is the first Junmai Ginjo-shu under the Jyuseki brand. The rice used for this sake is "Shuku," a sake rice born and raised in Kyoto. It is also brewed with all Kyoto ingredients, including bean sprouts from Kyoto's Hishiroku bean sprouts, Kyoto yeast developed in Kyoto Prefecture, and water from Fushimi, known as a famous water source.
The simple dark blue label features a design of a ten-stone boat, which is the origin of the brand name. The aroma is gentle, with a soft green apple and pear-like sweetness. The mouthfeel is smooth. The light sweetness and umami combine with the bitter complexity of the rice to form depth. The acidity seeps out from there and mixes beautifully to form a single mass. When swallowed, the light, refreshing sweetness of apple lingers in the mouth.
Rice polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 16%.
Rice: Shuku (Kyoto Prefecture)
This is a local sake that I had wanted to try. The aroma is gorgeous and fruity, and the water is slightly viscous and thick. When you drink it, the fruity and full sweetness envelops you, and the aftertaste is mild. It was interesting to compare the three types of wine in this way and see how different they are.
Thank you again for the delicious meal tonight!
I retired from my position at the end of March, and my regular drinking buddies held a party to celebrate my retirement. This time, we brought our own sake to an all-you-can-drink restaurant, which was a bit of a luxury, or rather, a consolation party, and this was a bottle from Fushimi, a major sake brewery in Kyoto. The sake rice "Celebration" from Kyoto, yeast, and Kyo-no-Koto. The yeast is from Kyoto and the water is from Fushimi.
Mild apple aroma. It is gentle. Smooth, with a hint of sweetness. A refreshing aftertaste. It is a sake that makes the most of food. Thanks to my friends. There are two more bottles.
Good evening, WOM!
Thank you very much for your retirement 🍀.
I see that you have built a good relationship with your fellow sake drinkers 🍶.
I haven't tried Towestone yet, but I'm a big fan of sakes that make the most of the food, so I'd love to try some 😊.
Hi WOM 😃.
Thank you for your position retirement 😌I'm already at the time too 😅I'd like to ask you about your preparedness.
The photo with the blue labels as good as the blue sky 😊does it show a clear mind 🤗?
Thank you, ma-ki-. You are a good drinking buddy to have. Now, Jyuseki. I think it is an honorable student in the category of food sake, where there is a lot of competition.
Thank you, Jay & Nobby. Every day I feel like a million stones turned into ten stones in a series of perplexing situations. Humbly, however, be modest in pointing out the mistakes. The mistakes of my former self are coming down upon me.
The flavor of rice can be felt throughout.
The core flavor is thick, with a hint of sweetness that adds a nice accent. The sharpness is also good.
This is a strange sake that is both dark and light at the same time.
