Shikishima玉栄 特別純米 無濾過生原酒
みあ
Immediately after opening the bottle, when it is well chilled, it has a delicious sweet aroma and a fluffy taste. Bitter taste from the first. The acidity is moderate.
It becomes sharp when it is cold (at room temperature). The sweetness of bananas → the alcohol taste.
In a word, I like it!
Sake Rice Story 🍶.
As the label on the back says, Tamaei originated in Aichi Prefecture.
The reason why it is now mainly grown in the San-in region, despite its origin, is not only because of the climate, but also because of the certification required to produce it in the first place (technically, to be able to call oneself a producer)...in terms of seed preservation and so on. And so on and so forth.
We had a good time drinking sake at the corner bar, and the brewer, who had become a familiar face to us (?), told us some interesting stories. It was fun to hear the brewer talk about everything from rice to sake brewing, from the brewery to other breweries, and even a nice sake shop!
