Report on the 7th Sake Tasting Party (3)-1
The third brewery in the report is Minami Sake Brewery.
Minami Shuzo Brewery brews pure, soft, and powerful sake using water from the clear Yasuda River in Yasuda-cho, Aki-gun, Kochi Prefecture.
The brewery's owner, Mr. Chihide Minami, was here.
Among the participating breweries this time, Minami is relatively seen in high-end supermarkets and other places, and its distribution is more common along with that of Harushika.
However, I personally did not have much information about Minami, and I only had a vague image of it as "a refreshingly dry food sake since it is from Kochi.
I tasted four sakes from the Minami Sake Brewery.
Mr. Minami had a soft demeanor and gave us many interesting explanations.
The first sake was Minami Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu Dewa Sanzu.
The note said, "Sake-like aroma. It has a strong acidity and flavor. Umami in a dry taste.
At first I thought, "Dewa Sanzan in Kochi Prefecture? and it was the first sake I tasted in Minami.
The reason why Minami was brewed from Yamagata rice is, after all, due to the shortage of sake rice caused by last season's high temperature disorder of rice.
The brewery had a connection with the farmers of Dewa Sanzu.
He said, "I think we are the only one in Shikoku that produces Dewa Tsannin. He said.
Looking back, I think Dewa Tsannin was brewed in a very southern style.
