出世男純米酒 うねび
まつちよ
We got this one at Kamazen near Kashihara Jingu-mae Station 🍶.
I didn't go there this time, but this sake is from a brewery in Imai-cho, Kashihara City, where the old townscape remains.
The aroma on the nose is somewhat like the sauce of Mitarashi dumplings.
The first sip has a deep sweetness and a full-bodied umami flavor.
The aroma is like that of Mitarashi dumplings.
It is a bit peculiar, but it is a mellow umakuchi, a genre that I personally like.
I only went around famous sake breweries that are available in Tokyo on this trip, but I would have liked to drink more locally consumed brands such as Izuseio.
I didn't have enough time and liver to do that though😅.
The third picture is the head mound of Soga Iruka, who was killed during the Taika Reformation, and behind him is Amagashi Hill.
It is located very close to Asukadera Temple.

Good evening, Matsuchiyo!
Imai-cho is a lovely town, please visit next time you are there! Kawai Sake Brewery offers tasting for a fee 😊.

Good evening, Pon-chan 🍶.
I didn't know about Imai-cho until just before my trip, and if I had known there was even a sake brewery, I would have forced myself to incorporate it somewhere 😅.
Next time I go to Nara, I will definitely go for a tasting 🍶.
