Iwase純米吟醸(無濾過熟成)
ひるぺこ
This time it is Iwase, a limited brand of Phantom Taki.
This sake is from Kurobe City, Toyama Prefecture.
It is a Junmai Daiginjo-class sake that has been aged for one year without filtration,
This sake is brewed with "Iwase family's fresh water" from the Kurobe River fan spring group, which is one of the 100 best water sources in Japan.
Like the previous Ariiso Akebono and Sanjoraku, this sake was also brewed at a certain shopping center.
It was obtained at a Hokuriku Sake Fair held at a certain shopping center.

I'm a bit broken to bring back 3 bottles from the morning tasting 😅.
The color is a slight yellowish hue.
The aroma is of ripe bananas, raisins, and aromatic wood.
It is served cold.
It has a mild mouthfeel like drinking good water, and the banana-like sweetness is quickly followed by a rice cake-like rice flavor. The overall taste is full-bodied with an astringent flavor.
When served cold, the astringency is a bit strong.
But when brought back to room temperature, it has a good balance between the beauty of the water and the richness of the umami. I was attracted to this feeling in the tasting 😊.
Toyama sake is hard to find in Kansai.
Three varieties with a lot of variety.
I was so happy to be able to get it!
Nemuchi-san for inviting me,
Thank you 😆👍

Good evening, Hirupeko 😃.
When you say "unfiltered", I am tempted to continue with "raw sake", but it is rare to find a sake that claims to be "unfiltered and aged".
With the rush of new sake, a beautiful aged sake seemed fresh 🍶.
The quintessence is the result of morning tasting 😁.

Hi Peco 🐦.
Peco is so quintessential to be able to buy aged sake 👍✨.
Morning tasting & 3 bottles 😆👍👍But aren't mornings the dullest? I think you can often make good purchases 🤔.

Good evening, Aladdin. It's true that you don't hear much about unfiltered aged sake. It seems to be a mellow type of Gen no Taki, but it still had a beautiful taste with the goodness of the water 😊.

Good evening, Pon. Yes, it was a good time for me to meet and talk with the liquor store owner! It was nice to be able to talk with the liquor store owner while tasting at a leisurely pace since it's not common for people to start tasting first thing in the morning😊I wasn't really aware of it, but I found myself choosing the matured type 😅.
