While running errands, I went to standing drinking CHUIN.
The sake on tap that day was... a rare sansho.
Sourced from the Hana-no-Kou Sake Brewery in Kumamoto Prefecture: ☺️
They purchased it from a liquor store in Hokkaido, and we were given a San-Do Yamada-Nishiki Ni-No-Sakai, which traveled from Kumamoto to Hokkaido to Osaka and back in Japan.
Sansho is a "nozomi" that expresses the degree of terroir and other characteristics of a region.
The two most standard types of Ninonoso are "using water from the Kikuchi River basin" and "using a traditional sake brewer's yeast yeast.
The flavor of sansho also differs depending on the lot.
This is a lot from June.
By the way, this is the first time to drink San-do at a restaurant 😁.
Misty nigori.
There is quite a bit of tailings involved.
From the dairy-like soft yogurt whey aroma to the fresh sweet aroma of grapefruit and pear, there is also rice aroma.
The gasiness is rich and smooth in texture, flowing smoothly after trotting in.
The acidity is lighter than the sweetness.
From the mid-palate, it finishes with a hint of bitter astringency and dryness.
The lingering finish is moderate.
Much drier than the conventional impression.
It seems as if a little more tailings are used to balance the sweetness and flavor.
It is nice as an orikara mist, though.
I also wanted to drink the Ninoh brew at home again.

Hi Aladdin, nice to meet you.
I've been to the store twice and both times there was a line for it, so if you are ever in Kawachi, I'd be happy to help. I have been there twice and found them in line both times, so if you are ever in Kawachi, you might want to check them out.

Nf bapak nice to meet you😃.
Thank you 😊
I love San-Do and I always buy it at Sukumasa and drink it at home, on the contrary, this was my first time to drink it at the store 😅.
I look forward to working with you in the future 😄

Good evening, adako 😃.
I don't have enough knowledge and experience to call myself a Sundo fanatic yet, but I hope to be one someday 😁.
It's not easy because there are only a few stores that carry sundries and some stores sell out immediately 😌.

Hi Kozo 😃
The June lot I drank this time seemed to have more tailings involved than the usual Ni No Brewery ☺️
I think you have to go to a store outside of Kyushu to find Sandon because the number of stores that carry it is very limited 😌.
