ねむちFukui, Niiri-gun, Fukui Prefecture. Niu Sake Brewery Co.
Asukai: Junmai-genshu, sake made from fresh yeast.
Purchased in Osaka at a store in Fukushima that has a good selection of Sanin sake and sake for heating.
It is a fairly small brewery, and they have a toji who came from elsewhere to sit down and make sake.
We had it cold.
The color is quite yellowish.
The aroma is a little lactic, woody, nutty, and slightly sweet in the back, and is complex and difficult to understand.
On the palate, it has a trolley-like texture.
The taste is a slight brown sugar-like sweetness at first, and slowly coats the tongue with sourness.
The spiciness starts to stimulate the tongue in the middle, and the taste quickly disappears.
At room temperature, a sourness that tastes like a sourness comes out.
It can also be served heated at 45-50℃.
The fragrance and the hint of aroma become chocolate-like, the acidity becomes more assertive, and the tingling sensation on the tongue is a bit amplified.
The tingling sensation on the tongue is slightly amplified.
I think it tastes better when warmed up.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Ingredients: 100% Kuzuryu rice produced in Eiheiji-cho, Fukui Prefecture
Polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 17.5

アラジンGood evening, Nemuchi 😃
I didn't know that Kuzuryu rice is suitable for sake brewing 😳
This sake brewed with Kuzuryu looks good heated 🍶.
I want to be a sake drinker who can also enjoy this kind of sake instead of drinking only modern sake 😌.

ジャイヴHello, Nemuchi-san!
I didn't know there was a sake shop in Kansai that carries Asukai, which bouken-san also wanted to try 😲.
It has a different water source from the main sake breweries in Fukui and has a long history, claiming to be the oldest brewery in Fukui 😁.

boukenHello Nemuchi 😃
Looks like it is suitable for warmed sake as the label suggests 😊.
I found out about Kutouryuu when Sanzen Sakura used it when it was in Gifu 😁I have the impression that not many breweries use it 🤔.

ねむちAladdin, good evening 🌛I don't see much Kuzuryu rice, but like bouken, I had an image of Sanzen Sakura 😊 Recently I've been thinking of trying some classical and heated up types 😆.

ねむちGyve-san, good evening 🌛bouken-san also has great detection skills and found "Asukai" at another store 😆It is a venerable sake brewery in Fukui 😳I bought a packet without prior knowledge but I am glad I did 😋.

ねむちbouken, good evening 🌛I also have an image of Kuzuryu rice as Sanzen Sakura 😊I was attracted by the label I had never seen before and bought it immediately, so I missed the sake degree +8 on the back label 🤣It was exactly what the label said it was 😁.

ささかまOne of the best drinking experiences. Dry! Too good with Fukui snacks...crispy thick fried tofu, I could eat as many cups as I want.

さなDbrand new issue
Some roughness, but crisp and overall dry.
Sweetness is moderate.
Not much at first, but jittery later.
I guess it is a dry food sake.

KazKazLight, crisp, dry ~⤴️✨🌸🍶
Mildly fruity in the mouth 🌸
Tangy on the tongue ✨
Crisp when swallowed ❕.
It's very tasty.

とみーたThe mild melon aroma, freshness and smoothness on the palate, and moderate spiciness and acidity in the latter half, make it a type of wine that you will never get tired of drinking.

YoshiAt a Gifu local cuisine izakaya.
I showed them the menu, which was more than half filled with local sake from Gifu, and asked what sake they recommended.
(Laughs) It is delicious, though.

まつちよI have seen you at Sake-no-wa from time to time, but this is the first time for Asukai-san as well.
The initial aroma is mild, but it smells like ripe fruit.
In the mouth, the sweetness and umami of the rice is combined with a good acidity.
It was slightly dry and delicious.

SIM3393Gohyakumangoku sake from Fukui
Yes. First delicious and refreshing.
Not stoned.
It is tasty, but the umami is not thick.
I wonder if it is.

西岡 俊輔Preferred degree 7/10
It has the crispness of a dry classic, but also has a gorgeous top. A bit of alcoholiness on the top though. Also a little lactonic?
Japanese>English
arincoIt has a fresh apple aroma.
The taste is clean and crisp, with a hint of acidity spreading in the mouth.
It is light and crisp, and goes well with oily food.
