Junmai Summer Sake ☀️
Refreshing and light drinking
Umami and richness of rice
The aftertaste is clean, light, and dry ⭕️
Urakasumi, a sake from Miyagi😄
Urakasumi Tokubetsu Junmai Shu Nama Ippon
Urakasumi's well-known special junmai sake.
The moment it enters the mouth, the impactful sweetness and full umami rush in, followed by a slightly strong bitterness, sourness, and a hint of acidity.
It has a classical taste that is distinctly different from the sweet and fruity flavors that are so popular nowadays.
It may sound contradictory, but it is sure to satisfy those who like dry sake as well as those who like it clean and mellow.
It was awarded the gold medal in the premium lukewarm category of the Heated Sake Contest 2024. It certainly looks good when heated, and the full flavor of the rice comes out.
The recommended temperature range on the label is wide, but my personal recommendation is room temperature.
It is extremely cost-effective and makes me really want to cherish this kind of sake.
There are not many cases where Sasanishiki, which is famous as edible rice, is used as sake rice, but drinking this sake will convince you that it is good for both. It is very tasty.
Nightcap.
It is naturally delicious.
Not too sweet but with a hint of sourness.
It is easy to drink with a clear and handsome taste.
It goes well with meals.
Junmai Ginjo Urakasumi No.12 Saura
Refreshing aroma, pleasant acidity, and a sharp aftertaste.
It is also surprisingly good with garlic-oil-roasted swordfish and watermelon.
Sake also goes well with it.
A Miyagi antenna store opened in Yurakucho's Kotsu Kaikan, so I took a peek and bought a bottle of Urakasumi. It was a refreshing taste. With kamaboko.
At chuin-san the other day
Sake we received while visiting the owner, Mr. Kawada.
Next is "DATE SEVEN SEASON2 episode4 Urakasumi style - Sea of Tradition -".
This sake is released every year as a joint project of seven Miyagi breweries.
This year, Urakasumi (Saura) and Hakurakusei (Shinzawa Brewery) are the leaders!
Let's start with Urakasumi style 🍶.
The appearance is pale and crystalline with a very slight yellow tinge.
The aroma is mildly sweet.
Aromas of ripe melon and banana.
The rice aroma is about the same as that of Kamishinko.
The texture is light and smooth.
Very slight gasiness on the tongue.
Light and reserved sweetness, with a firm acidity.
It spreads in the mouth with a dry sensation, and while accompanied by a light stimulation, the sensation passes refreshingly from the back of the throat to the nose.
The sharpness is good.
The lingering finish is moderate with a hint of complexity.
It is a dry, dry, umami-guchi sake with a dry feel typical of Miyagi sake.
Hi Aladdin 😃I see you drank Dateseven, I'm jealous 😆I was more interested in Hakurakusei, but from your post, I'm also interested in Urakasumi💦but I can't seem to find it 😓.
Good evening, Wakata 😃.
This is the first time I could drink Dateseven ☺️
I've seen it quite a bit in Tokyo, so maybe it's mostly distributed in Kanto 🤔In Osaka, Sake no Yamamoto was carrying it 😄.
It's a Miyagi sake and I hope Wakata-san will try it!
Some fizzy sensation in the mouth
The sweetness of the rice that gradually warms up and gives off a soft aroma afterwards.
The beautiful label gives a cool impression and the sake is easy to drink.
