My favorite sagas are the humble sakes. Toichi, Tenzan, and Matsuuraichi.
This junmai sake is really an orthodox, traditional sake with no characteristics.
The world is in the mood for GW.
I had a cup of sake with sweet mackerel miso and a cup of hot water.
The fact that they can go right to the middle of the traditional sake is a sign that they have absolute confidence in their sake.
Delicious.
A clear and gorgeous ginjo aroma reminiscent of pineapple.
The smooth mouthfeel is followed by a hint of gas that stimulates the tongue, and then the juicy rice flavor and sweetness spreads, and the taste finishes slightly dry with a touch of bitterness.
I have a feeling that the flavor will become rounder as the bottle is opened.
Purchased with Takizawa
I knew I'd be interested in Matsuura Ichi, which I don't see anywhere else when I come here.
The description doesn't say, but it seems to be an unfiltered raw sake.
It has a juicy sweetness with a hint of pear and apple.
It's dry and a bit alcoholic in the latter half.
Matsuura Ichi is really good!
After 3 days, it seems to be less alcoholic and more sweet.
bouken-san Good evening 🌇Matsuura Ichi is another Saga sake that I've been paying attention to, as well as Miyanomatsu. It has a modern and classic feel, and I like it 🍶.
Hello, Mr. Gura.
I buy both Miyanomatsu and Matsuura Ichi whenever I see them because there are only a few stores that carry them 😁.
The taste is even better now that the bottle has been open for a while 😋.
Hi Nemuchi!
I like the fact that you didn't make the labels too fancy 👍You bought them locally 😁Saga has a lot of good sake so I'm sure you'll have a hard time choosing the right one 😵.
Umakuchi Junmai Sake and Junmai Harashu 65
The umakuchi sake has a strong flavor, and the junmai sake is light and fluffy.
I like the label design. I want it on a T-shirt. The bottle looks like it would fit in a room like Brooklyn.
Saga/Takeo Onsen Collective Buy 6
This is the last bottle of the 6 bottles of Saga sake I bought. This is "Matsuura Ichi Special Junmai" that Taguri Sake Brewery specially orders from the brewery.
The label is retro, but the balance is gentle and not too sweet. The image is that of a less sweet Nabeshima, but slightly more sake-like and rounded.
It is good heated from room temperature in winter... Tonight's "tai shabu" will go well with it.
I have never had much luck with Saga sake, but it's good! Everything was delicious. Thanks for the food 😋.
