Kyoto Takashimaya Sake Festival (3)
It has been a long time since I last had a glass of Shuho before starting Sake-no-wa.
The booth of Shuho Sake Brewery of Shuho, Yamagata Prefecture.
◉Shuho Junmai Sake Tsuyahime
This sake has a strong umami taste with a slight astringency.
I decided to buy a bottle because it was made from rice rice called Tsuyahime, which is rare, but they were sold out of the four-pack bottles. The price of rice has gone up, so they will not be making it next season.
◉Shuho Junmai Ginjo Yamahai Kame-no-o
The taste is somewhat unique. It has a refreshing taste even though it is a yamahai. It also has a strong umami flavor.
◉Shuho Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki 47
The king of the bunch, with plenty of umami. The taste is also very good.
◉Shuho Junmai Daiginjo Omachi
Sweet and fruity, with a wild omachi flavor that is typical of omachi.
◉Shuho Junmai Daiginjo Yuki Megami
35% polished. Clear, sweet and refreshingly sweet. I was very hesitant to buy it, but my budget held me back this time.
Snow Goddess is a rice made for Daiginjo-type rice, so it is basically polished down to 50% or less.
◉Shuho Junmai Daiginjo Yamadaho 45
A clear sweetness that spreads slowly and has a strong, punchy umami.
All of the sakes were very complete and delicious.
