National Sake Fair 2025⑰
Ibaraki Prefecture ⑧
Sasame Sohei Shoten in Kasama City
With all due respect, I had no idea about this 💦.
Polishing ratio 60% Miyamanishiki, Sake degree +3, 15.5
Slightly spicy, classic type. Slightly complex flavor.
When you put it in your mouth, it is as if the acidity, dryness, slight sweetness, etc. are switching on your tongue.
The taste is complex, yet delicious.
As you drink it several times to check the taste, you will get drunk.
I was struck by the overwhelming presence of hiyaoroshi when I compared hiyaoroshi at a local sake bar in front of Mito Station and bought it!
It may not be strictly speaking hiyaoroshi because it is a draft sake, but I don't care.
Aromas of butter and milk caramel in a grassy, mellow taste.
Strong but mild and mildly smooth taste.
It has the flavor of a well matured nama-shu.
Good for drinking at a leisurely pace
It may be that I am from Ibaraki, but it seems Ibaraki-esque to me.
Perhaps it is the proximity to my hometown and the fact that I drank when I was young.
Sweet.
Has a sweet sake feel
Slightly effervescent and tangy
A little heavy to be served with rice because of the rice malt
I think it's good to drink it as a snack.
Delicious!
