At a dinner party in collaboration with Tsushima Tsuru at Metropolitan Morioka New Wing and Washinoo in Hachimantai.
Next up was Asamurazaki.
A brand I had never heard of or seen before.
It is a sake brewed with ancient rice "Asamurasaki" and is said to be a gorgeous pink color.
Half of the sake produced is exported, and is said to be selling well overseas.
Then, a lacquerware container made by Mr. Yusuke Takahashi was presented to us.
I don't recognize pink among them... (^_^; )
I put it to my mouth and was surprised to see...(P.S.)
What?
What is this mouthfeel?
What is it? It was like that.
No, not the taste of the sake, but the feeling of the lacquerware itself.
It already feels like your lips and the rim of the lacquerware are nicely attached to each other, and it feels so nice, totally different from when you drink from a glass.
The rim feels very delicate and thin, and if you wash it the wrong way, it will be more out of place than a thin champagne glass.
Drinking Asamurasaki in such delicately finished lacquerware.
It is slightly sweet and easy to drink.
It was delicious! (^o^)
