From Yokohama to Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, over the Mikuni Pass in Tokyo, Saitama, and Gunma 🚗.
Even though it was as hot as 40 degrees in some places that day, it was 23 degrees from Mikuni Pass to Naeba, very cool and comfortable 🎐.
The first drink we had at a izakaya in Nagaoka was Murayu.
The alcohol content is 15 degrees Celsius.
The aroma is moderate and the taste is sweet and sour with a nice crispness.
The lady at the store was very knowledgeable about it and said that the alcohol content was undisclosed, and that the harmony was mild and refreshing among the Murasuke, while the other Murasuke were sweeter. Hmmm, I would like to try it 🤔.
But I can't pick it up on this trip because it's sold out or something 😢 I'd like to revisit it someday
Good morning, soumacho!
Thanks for the long drive to Nagaoka 🚗.
I have an impression that Murayusuke is also a sweet sake that I would like to try 🤤.
It's great to enjoy a glass of local sake with delicious snacks while traveling, isn't it 😋.
Hi ma-ki-😃.
It's fun to drive on a road I don't know well 🚗.
I still can't stop tasting the local sake and snacks afterwards 😊.
I regret that I didn't get to meet other village yusus this time 😅.
Recommended for summer heating, served cold.
Slightly vanilla-like aroma.
The aroma is sweet and custard-like.
The taste is light, gentle and juicy.
The aroma is rich, but the texture is smooth,
The alcohol content of 13 degrees Celsius makes it easy to drink.
The sweetness seems to blossom when it is heated up, so I would like to try that as well.
Preference 4/5
Since the participants are from all over the country, some of them are Japanophiles. ‼️ A guest from Niigata Prefecture asked us to have a sake drink, and we visited his room ❗Murayu was waiting for us!
I'm so happy to see you!
We went to Kokura on Sunday of that week! It was amazing to feel the monorail crashing into the station ‼️
I had to try the yakiudon, which is the origin of yakiudon!
It was also delicious, with a crispy outside and chewy inside 😋.
In the evening, we went to "Hakata Ramen shin-shin" to try their tonkotsu ramen! Yum~😋!
It has been a long time since I have seen Murayu.
I got the impression that it has a clearer outline than the Japanese style.
It has a sugary sweetness rather than a fruity taste.
However, it is not an unpleasant sweetness, but rather a sweetness with the flavor of rice.
To be honest, I prefer other brands. I prefer other brands,
9.6
The top aroma is a strange yogurt-like aroma with a strong milkiness.
The texture is slightly thickened.
In the mouth, a rich sweetness spreads, followed by a slight bitterness and sourness. The flavor is like sweet yogurt and orange peel. In the end, sweetness, acidity, and a pleasant sake alcohol taste remain.
To sum it up simply, it is a yoghurt sake. It is a rich but refreshing yogurt sake. It is an interesting sake with a very different taste.
Reminiscence of a one-day drinking trip to Kanazawa [Daigo] Part 4
Next, I found this one that I hadn't had since I drank it a long time ago, so I ordered it 🍶.
Murayu Unfiltered Hon Nama Seishu
The aroma of rice has a slight impact, and the mouthfeel is juicy, sweet and umami, followed by a sharp and clean finish.
I haven't had this sake in more than 10 years. In a way, this is one of the sake that made me change my mind from Fukui sake to sake from outside of Fukui Prefecture.
At the time, I wasn't aware that it was as rare as it is now 😓.
As usual, it was hot again today😅.
I was sweating because I had to work outside today 😓I usually drink black unsweetened and don't really drink sweet drinks, but today was indeed Aquarius ✨.
So when I got home, I couldn't decide between a strong carbonated drink or a sweet drink, but I was tired, so I went with the sweet drink, Yu Hatsumura! Now, I'll have some!
The aroma is faintly sweet. It has a soft, soft mouthfeel, with a clear, dense sweetness, and a mild acidity that slowly rushes in.
I thought it was a delicious Murayu. I would like to drink other kinds👍.
Good evening, ichiro18 🌆.
Murayu, I've heard it's a modern sake with a strong gassy taste, is this one a bit more relaxed 🤔.
I'd love to try it sometime as I rarely see it here ✨
Good evening, ichiro18 😄Thanks for working hard in the hot weather today ❣️ I have an office job so I think it must be really hard to work outside 💦Murasuke, I've only had the green label, but it's soooo good and I love it💕.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
Thank you 😊
I rarely work outside, but this heat is a bit 😓.
Murayu's green, it's delicious😍 really easy to drink and doesn't leave a sweet taste👍.
Good evening, ichiro18!
Thank you so much for working outside in the hot weather🍀.
I haven't had Murayu yet, but it's a dense sweet sake that's not just sweet 🤤.
I would love to take you out if I could meet you 🤗.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃.
Thank you 😊.
It's delicious to drink after sweating ✨Murayu is also a sake that I haven't seen before and I popped it on the internet 😁It has a delicious sweet taste so I hope you can find it too 👍.
Hi ichiro18 😃.
It's hard to work outside in this heat ☀️ 😵.
First of all, hydrate yourself with Aquarius 😮💨 so you can sweeten your drink at night! I drank Murayusan about 3 years ago 😋I remember its sweetness like brown sugar🤗.
Hi Jay & Nobby😃.
Thank you 😊
It was sweet enough to replenish the sweetness of the night, and as you said, yes the brown sugar🤩-like sweetness was a welcome relief after a long day 🍶.
