Good morning! (^○^)
This is the last sake of the collaboration event between Metropolitan Morioka New Wing's Japanese restaurant "Tsushima Tsuru" and Washio (Hachimantai City), a long-established sake brewery established in 1829.
The final sake was Yui no Kaori, Junmai Ginjo.
Comment from Fukuraiya Sake Brewery in Senboku, Morioka City.
We aimed for such a sake. This sake is brewed with "Yunokou," a newly developed rice suitable for sake brewing in Iwate Prefecture, under the concept of "This is Iwate's top quality sake.
Compared to Yamada-Nishiki, sake made with Yunokou has a "Yamato Nadeshiko" flavor and aroma that spreads slowly and quietly.
Washio's "Yunokou" has a gentle aroma, a refined and light mouthfeel, and a clean taste like light snow.
The name "Yui no Aroma" is derived from our wish to cherish the "Yui" of relationships with various people.
We hope you will use "Yui no Kou" on occasions that connect people with each other.
The name of the product is "Yui no Kou" (meaning "the fragrance of unity").
It is more mature than sen (sen), but has a very gorgeous aroma and a soft sweet and savory taste. The taste was as good as tempura.
No, this was truly a wonderful event where I could truly enjoy sake and Japanese cuisine.
Thanks to my wife for finding me!

Hello, Tomoyuki Kumagai.
Washinoo is sold really well in Iwate.
It is a local favorite sake (although the higher specs are expensive and hard to get hold of...).

Hi Kab! (≧▽≦)
This is the brewery that the current Emperor of Japan said was delicious when he stayed in Hachimantai when he was the Crown Prince.
It is true that the top-ranked sake is more expensive because of the time and effort required to make it.
