It's another day for sake. I still have some work to do, but I'm spending a peaceful afternoon.
Kangiku Meikyu brews a series of "super" limited unfiltered unpasteurized sake several times a year, and it is available only at retailers. I opened it on such an ordinary day.
The "Ushu Homare" rice for sake brewing is an extremely rare sake rice bred by Tatsugoro Takagi, the 14th generation of the Takagi Sake Brewery, which produces Yamagata Prefecture's sake "Jyushiyo".
Kangiku Meikozo's wish came true and they have been brewing it since 2022. They must have been very happy.
It has a nice sweetness and gasiness with a hint of bitterness that makes you feel like an orange. It is clear and fresh, so you can enjoy it lightly at lunchtime. It also has a strong umami flavor.
When you open the bottle, be careful not to make a big splash when you open the bottle. Opening the bottle is scary.
