It's been a while since I've had a chance to drink some sake from outside of the prefecture... so today I'm going to try some sake from within the prefecture 🍶. I've been curious about this one for a while, but I haven't had a chance to drink it yet 😅. This is "Shirakoh" brewed by Morikawa Shuzo located near the port town of Yasura-cho, Kure City 💁. To be honest... I have never been a fan of sake brewed with soft water brewing method (especially from breweries around Saijo) because of its sweetness and sticky aftertaste in general, coupled with my preconceived notions about it, with a few exceptions 😓. So I decided to buy it to break through my preconceived notions. ‼️🤣 Well, I'm sorry for the long preamble, but here we go! The aroma isn't that strong and doesn't change much when poured into a glass 🤔. I couldn't see the 🫧shuwa feeling of the sake... but anyway, I took a sip: 🙂‍↕️ Oh! This is an apple juice 🧃🙆 with a pretty good balance of sweetness and sourness, as well as a nice sharpness and aftertaste. Rather... with this balance, it's a good level to have in souvenir stores ❗️ I'd rather have it 😭 Nice balance for aperitifs and after-dinner drinks 👌 2nd day🗒️ Stable balance of sweetness and sourness...maybe a little more alcohol in the aftertaste 😅. But in general, easy to drink and delicious‼️
