At Calendar, a standing bar at JR Otsu station.
Actually, we ran out of one sake to compare and were short of 45ml 😌.
The owner offered me a free sake to make up for it! I took their word for it and got an additional 1🍶.
The sake of choice here is Buroisen Yamahai Special Junmai Harazake aged for 3 years.
It was the manager's recommendation! You know what I mean 😁.
The aroma of the sake is very calm and matured.
Shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms, pre-shaved Parmigiano Reggiano, fermented butter.
Slight clove, cypress and dried herbs too.
Aroma of rice.
Smooth texture.
Nice spread of rounded acidity with soft sweetness and firm fullness.
It has a unique sense of sourness and umami combined.
It gradually seeps into the mouth while softly expanding, and finishes beautifully.
The finish is sharp with a firm aftertaste.
The sweetness, acidity, and umami rounded out by aging are very intoxicating.
The aroma is for picky drinkers, but the taste is superb.
I would like to warm it up.
The staff is very nice, and the sake seems to change with the seasons!
Thanks for the food 🍶.
