The 7th Sake Tasting Party Report (3)-3
I was so engrossed in the sake and conversation that I did not take proper photos of the sake.
The third sake from Minami Sake Brewery.
I asked Mr. Minami what to drink next after having the jun-daigin, and he recommended a special junmai.
So here we are,
I started with the Minami Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake.
The note reads, "The full-bodied flavor of the rice, plus the sweetness of the rice, with a good acidity. The sweetness of the rice and the moderate acidity give it a sharp finish. It is a perfect mid-meal sake to be drunk slowly.
There are two special junmai sake with different yeasts, and this one is the unbranded, normal, classic type.
This one is the normal, classic type, while the next one, "Batsurae," is a bit more modern and gorgeous.
The sake rice is Matsuyama-Mitsui, which is also a common rice used for rice. It is said to be suited for a light sake quality.
The sake is unfiltered and fresh, but the robust rice flavor of the special junmai rice is impressive.
