At a sushi restaurant in Sannomiya, I met up with some people I have not seen for a long time.
Among the various sakes we had, this one was a personal hit. It is very easy to drink and beautiful.
It's not often seen in Tokyo, but if I find it, I'll buy it immediately.
At the usual liquor store I use when I go back home
Unfamiliar labels from unfamiliar breweries...
The description on the pop-up said it looked close to my taste, so I chose to try it 🎶.
It's a sake from an unfamiliar brewery, isn't it? I asked the staff at the cash register...
Nakashimaya's sake is not included in the standard selection, but it's a Concept Worker's Selection, so it came in that slot!
↑There are many ways to get it in, aren't there? 🤔
This is a small brewery, and since last year or so, a young toji? (President?) has been trying to make new sake since last year. (President?) has been trying to make new sake since last year, and this sake seems to be the result of it!
That's what I heard.
I'm a bit fuzzy on the information, but I'd like to record what I heard anyway 🤣.
And the taste
Grapefruit-like flavor like Kouei Chrysanthemum ~ ❣️❣️
This is delicious🎶🎶
Nice balance of sweet, sour and bitter 🎶⤴️⤴️
The next day, however, the grapefruitiness is gone and it becomes very sweet and fruity 😍😍.
Yum⤴️⤴️👏👏👏

Drinking out🎶.
At Udon Endo! I recommend this one 🍶.
A little less sweet and a little less aromatic?
It tastes like Niimasa or Senkou with a sour taste 😊.
I didn't know there was a brand of sake that tastes so good 😊.
Nice fresh muscat-like aroma: ❗️
The mouthfeel is sizzling, tangy, and juicy 🤤.
Yet sharp acidity and sharpness,
The taste is clean and refreshing even after the mid-palate is impressive 😊.
Thanks to the mellowness of the ori (rice powder), you can feel the richness of the umami and it's nice to drink. ‼️
Delicious 😋😋😋
Bottom of the bottle.
Mellow fruity aroma.
Syrupy terorin texture.
The honey-like sweetness gives way to a full rice flavor.
There is also an acidity, so you don't feel any unnecessary fullness.
The taste is harmonious, as if blending in.
Rich, yet smooth, light and delicious.
Rice delicious, elegant sister.
Taste level ☆ 3.5/5
