Ponshukan Nagaoka Ekimae drinking grui 9 cups.
Next up is Yahiko, ranked 8th last month.
I drank a glass of Yahiko, wondering if it was popular in the regular sake genre. I wondered why it was so popular in the "normal sake" category, and had another glass.
It was so refreshingly dry and tasty that I thought it might be a normal sake scam.
If this is a normal sake, I have high expectations for junmai sake as well.
Sake tasting at Niigata station.
Next stop is Yahiko.
Soft and moderately umami and spicy.
The mildness is unique.
I didn't buy it this time, but I was so impressed with its mildness that I want to buy it next time I see it.
The photo is the torii gate of Yahiko Shrine ⛩️ and Mt. Yahiko ⛰️ that we passed on the way to Teradomari from Niigata City the next day.
I asked my daughter, who was in the passenger seat, to take my picture.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😃.
Our trip to Niigata was a wonderful experience with food, sake 🍶 and scenery 🚗.
The sudden appearance of the Otorii gate ⛩️ was very impressive 😊.
Sake of the Day
Yahiko Sake Brewery Yahiko Izumi Style "God's Water" Brewing
Recommended by the brewery😊.
Alcohol content is 11, but the sake degree is +4
It seems dry, but it is mild and smooth on the palate and down the throat. ☺️
I can't describe it well, but it's like "What is this delicious water! 😆.
The sake shop told me to try it with sashimi, so I got some sashimi as well!
I recommend this handsome man.
The aroma is subdued, yet gorgeous.
The sweetness of the rice spreads from the first sip, followed immediately by astringency and a soft pungency. The aftertaste is light and leaves a refreshing sweetness.
Alcohol 16%.
Sake level is low.
Acidity low
Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️
My first brand. I guess it makes you wonder if this is what they call "light and dry"? I don't know much about it, but I thought it would go well with a meal.
