The taste is very drinkable, and the pleasant acidity supports it and makes you drink more and more.
The depth of this sake can be felt because it is a Yamahai sake.
This sake also does not make you feel its alcohol content.
Last weekend was the annual festival at a local shrine.
This year, too, I participated in the lion dance procession as a member of the shrine's Ujiko (shrine parishioners).
During the parade, which goes from house to house, we look forward to the sacred sake from the local people's "Resting Gaiin".
What kind of sake did you encounter this year?
First up was Ishikawa's Jokigen.
It was 20 minutes into the tour, so there was no need to rest, but we were grateful for the sake.
What I wonder about every year at this house is an old jar of Manazuru. When was it made? Phone number 5.
Thank you very much for your hospitality!
The lion dance series will take a break from the sake language.
A bottle of Tsunekigen's regular sake was purchased for 1980 yen. Polishing ratio 65%. It is not labeled "Honjozo," so it must have slightly more alcohol.
The taste is very beautiful.
Even though it has a lot of alcohol, the flavor of rice, graininess, and the aroma of rice malt can be clearly felt.
It is perfect for daily evening drinks.
This is why I can't stop my journey to find a good "normal sake"!
1980 yen, unbelievable!
