This is the first nigori of the season.
The arrival information came in almost at the same time as the winter arrival in Omine, so I bought this one after much hesitation (because there was no room in the fridge 🥲).
Mikotsuru's Active Nigori Nama Sake
The bottle was opened without any problems, although it said to be opened with caution!
First, the supernatant, not so sweet and characterized by umami and bitterness.
The bubbles are fine and nice 🥰.
The rice is fresh and juicy, with a nice rice flavor added.
Fresh and juicy with the addition of a nice rice flavor.
The light bitterness at the end resets the palate so the next cup goes on!
It's a weekday and they ran out in two days😅.
Purchased at a supermarket in Shinshu.
Gaseous feeling from the time the bottle was opened.
Good stimulation when drinking.
It has a moderate sweetness and a good taste of rice.
It is a good choice for both drinking and eating.
The sake rice is Yamae Nishiki, and the aroma is sweet like vanilla, and when you drink it, it has a fresh and slightly pineapple-like flavor, with a fruity, gentle sweetness and umami that spreads out and lingers pleasantly.
Yamae Nishiki. A long-awaited encounter. It is too good this year. But the taste is different. Of course it tastes good. Something is different. Is there more nourishment? Still a little hard. Let's go slowly. It has a tangy feeling, like a raw sake, even though it's fire-brewed. I want to enjoy it alone at night.
Continuing from yesterday, today's sake is Mikotsuru's Suwa Miyamanishiki.
The specs are almost the same, the only difference is the sake rice 😀.
The taste... the same Mikotsuru nuance at the end finish, but the starting point was completely different 😀.
Yesterday's Kinmon-nishiki started out with a robust flavor and Mikotsuru came out at the end, but this Suwa Miyamanishiki had Mikotsuru's nuance from the beginning to the end 😀.
Kaorin said she prefers Suwa Miyamanishiki because she likes sweet flavor, but I think I prefer Kinmon Nishiki because I can enjoy the change in flavor😇.
I think this area is the result of difference in taste 😀.
Hi Yasubeyesan 🐦.
I just rearranged Yasubeyesan's mikos because you drink a lot of different rice...they all look delicious 😻I think it's Suwa Miyamanishiki because I have similar tastes to Kaorin 🤔I want to drink all of them 🤣.
Good morning, Pon-chan 😀
If you have a chance, please try to compare all the sake rice 😀.
Miko-chan is a delicious sake that keeps the same basic Miko-chan while keeping a different face on each one 😇.
Following the previous comparison between Yamane-nishiki and Hitogokochi by Gokotsuru, this time we will compare Kinmon-nishiki and Miyama-nishiki 😀 Today we will open a bottle of Kinmon-nishiki 😇 Today we will open a bottle of Miyama-nishiki 😇
Today we opened the bottle of Kinmon-nishiki.
The aroma is the same as usual Gokozuru, but the taste at the moment of drinking is a little stronger and clearer than the previous Yamae Nishiki and Hitogochi 😀.
However, the last remaining taste is back to the usual Gokotsuru's nuance 😇.
It's amazing that the taste on the palate is so different just by using different sake rice, even though it's the same Gokotsuru's junmai ginjo unfiltered raw sake 😀.
Gokotsuru is now a sake I want to follow for a while 😇.
