Solo activity at a rather reputable izakaya K in Niigata City 🕺. I chose from the seasonal recommendations (all Niigata sake). The sake seems to be well chilled in the fridge, but the sake bottle was probably at room temperature, a delicate temperature... 😔 There is not much standing aroma, but a slight bran-like aroma. When you take a sip, the fruity flavor spreads at once. It is very fresh and has a sweet taste like koji or honey for a super-harsh sake, but then it quickly turns sharp and there is a long bitter aftertaste. It is quite dry. It will zing for a while 🫨. The character of this sake is quite different from that of ordinary Niigata sake. It has the solid structure that only Tsururei can have, but the refreshing green flavor is only possible with Miyamanishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture. But I also feel the character of Niigata sake, which is clearly different from Nagano sake 🤔. It's a good sake 😊. Well...after this, I'd like a glass of Tsuru no Tomo, lukewarm 🍶. Ding! What came out after a while of... More than heated up to the brim? Moreover, there were signs that the sake bottle had been chilled. The flavor has gone and the alcohol has also gone 😣. I don't deny the chin at all. If appropriate. I left the restaurant with a bitter complaint at the checkout 🚶. The local booze is crying out for you, and

Jurian, good evening 😄. Sorry to hear about the heated sake 😅. I wonder if there was a manual or something? Like how many watts and seconds for lukewarm 🤔

Jurian, good evening😊. The temperature of the alcohol is important. Tsururei's super dry sake is a good sake and I have the impression that it is good chilled to a nice kinchu. It is a pity that it is too hot when served lukewarm.

Good evening, T.KISO 🌙 You can see that it is obviously different from your order. Still, one word of advice would have been nice... And I was alone in the restaurant until I left. Maybe something had changed 😣.

Hiraccio, good evening 🌙. Too much heat is not the same level as it sometimes is 💧. It's like you've gone near boiling and forced it to cool down... It's a shame and saddens me to think that this is the way it is for travelers 😢.
