Icoma Sake Shop Tasting Event (4)
Honshu Ichi, which I had never had and wanted to drink.
Honshu Ichi Shiboritate Junmai Ginjo Tankoba Kumi
The rice used was Senbon-Nishiki, and the sake was directly drawn from the tank, so I was expecting a deep sweetness.
I guess the label in the photo is from a sample at a liquor store. I also took a picture of the real label.
When I told him I was drinking Honshu Ichi and went to buy Kaiju Ichi, which has a similar name, he didn't expect to hear the shocking rumor💦.
Nemuchi-san wanted to go to the Ikoma tasting, so we decided to go together since we hadn't seen each other recently😁.
We went to the tasting of Yizishin on that day, but it started at 14:30, so we tasted some other sake.
I have already drank many of them, so I will introduce the ones I haven't posted and the ones I haven't tasted yet.
I'm sure Nemuchi will post the others 😌.
Honshu Ichi no Tankoba Kumi. Rice is Senbon Nishiki.
I thought it was a refreshingly sweet and umami type!
Personally, I prefer the orikarami type of Honshu Ichi.
The last time I drank Tenka Nishiki special honjozo, it seemed sweet when it was cold, but this time I drank it at room temperature and it was dry and dry as advertised 😋.
If I were to buy it, I would buy the orikarami 🤔.
I was surprised to see that the Ariiso Akebono I posted the other day had lost its sharpness and became more gentle tasting. It's the type that tastes better after a few days than freshly opened.
Good morning, bouken 😃.
Those are some eye-opening and colorful bottles 😳.
The bottles lined up look like a Kansai two-top that hasn't been to a tasting in a long time 😁.
At the usual restaurant
The second cup was this one, Autumn Agari.
It wasn't freshly cut, so it was very dry and calm.
It was very dry. ☺️
The side dish was mushrooms and cream cheese!
