Buy the jackets 😊.
I thought I was getting an acid taste, but in no time at all, the sweetness spread over my entire tongue.
While I was enjoying the sweetness, the bitterness bounced back to the tip of my tongue from the back of my tongue, and I also felt a slight pungency.
After a while, when it calmed down, the mild sweetness was interrupted by a flicker of bitterness.
I am not sure, but as I continued drinking, a change occurred that made me think I was drinking a completely different sake, with little acidity and a creamy flavor that flowed onto my tongue, followed gradually by bitterness 🙂.
The expression of the flavor changes from the top, middle and bottom of the sake poured into the sake cup.
It is a mysterious sake 😚.
The season for aki-togi fish has arrived!
This year, the bonito was not good, but the akitogi seem to have been caught in abundance, and good-sized fish are being distributed at reasonable prices.
My family also went to the Yuriage Sanma Festival. On the day of the festival, 2,000 saury were served, but the numbered tickets were sold out before 6:00 a.m., so we could not get a chance to enjoy them.
However, I was able to buy a box of super extra-large akitogi, so I achieved my initial goal.
We were tired from the early morning, so we took the fish to a local tavern and had it grilled with salt and served as sashimi.
I paired it with Sotenden from Kesennuma. The synergistic effect of the two ingredients was delicious.
Don't torture me, sake words without permission.
〜I want to eat the returning bonito, too!
Thank you very much for the food!
Colonel Lal, good evening ❗I'm jealous of your autumn swordfish 😆 I haven't been able to find a good-sized autumn swordfish in the past few years 😭 I'm drooling just looking at your comment while eating Soutenden 🤤.
Utsuchi~'s super~rippa-san Good evening 😁.
I saw some supermarkets with a pop-up saying "this size is the first time in 13 years", so you can imagine how long the poor catch has been 😭.
Meguro's Sanma Festival is an autumn fish from Kesennuma, so we have high expectations 🤘.
While it has the freshness of a nama-shu, the sweetness is quite strong on the palate.
Combined with the umami, the fullness typical of Omachi is well expressed.
The aftertaste, however, is not heavy and light.
The mild acidity also serves as an accent, supporting the overall balance.
However, I think I have seen FLYING BIRD at a certain sacred place, but is it no longer limited to restaurants?

Soutenden Special Junmai Sake
Slightly citrus fruit aroma, gentle sweetness and clean finish.
Kamo eggplant Dutch stew and a chilled bowl of wax gourd go down a treat.
I like this one, too, because it is crisp and dry. I like this kind of sake in summer! The menu at the restaurant is junmai ginjo, but the bottle is junmai sake... I'll match it to the bottle.

Soutenden brought back from Kesennuma the other day.
Among them, FLYING BIRD is brewed for restaurants, but it is available for purchase locally.
The previous blue FLYING BIRD was Tokujun, but the new Beni has been upgraded to Jungin!
Fruity upper aroma with a hint of sake in the back.
The mouthfeel is impressive, with an impressive acidity from the umami. It has a sharp sharpness, which is Soutenden's specialty, while giving a strong sense of the good points of the first sake. This is delicious!
Please don't abuse me.
〜It's not to be underestimated because it dies even in the rain these days.
Thank you very much for the food!
This is surely the first brand I have ever seen.
In a word, it is still Miyagi. I thought it would have a strong sweetness because it is pure Dai, but it has a moderate sweetness and bitterness. It finishes with a spiciness towards the end. It has a sweetness and a sharpness that makes me want to repeat this bottle.
A memorandum of notes and smilies 🙏.
Today I had a drinking party with friends in Yokogawa. First glass of sake at Nondoru.
Light and dry. It goes well with meat and is easy to drink 🤗.
Sake, Sotenden FLYING BIRD Beni, was prepared by the sales manager, a sake lover, at a reception for a business contractor. He recommended that I try it with sushi from the sea, so I started drinking it and ended up emptying the bottle.
