ねむち
The 2nd Yodobashi Umeda National Sake Festival (2)
I recently followed someone on Instagram who was posting a lot of technical information about sake, and I found him at this booth.
This is the booth of Niiyu from Chiba Prefecture.
Niiyu is mostly rice.
In Kansai, I think the steadfast brand is more famous.
Some of the sake were already sold out.
◉u no sake
Yamadanishiki Yamahai Junmai, a type of pure rice with strong acidity and amino acidity. It is made to be as good as eel sauce and burnt eel. The brewery is located on the side of Mt. Narita and there are many eel restaurants on the approach to the mountain.
◉Niyuu Honjozo Dry
A mildly umami taste. The acidity gives it a refreshing aftertaste.
◉Junmai-shu (Junmai-shu)
A very mildly umami sake, with a nice, smooth taste that I like. This wine was supposed to be the winner of the International Wine Challenge, but they mistakenly gave the prize to this one.
◉Niyo Junmai Ginjo
This is another sake that has a very assertive yet beautiful umami and acidity.
◉Junmai Daiginjo
Sweet, fruity and delicious. Similar to Fudo... I was surprised to hear that this sake is a bit unwritten.
He said something like it won't be here next year.
