いーじー
Purchased at a sake shop.
Ishizuchi is a modern, fruity type of sake from Shikoku. It was my first time to drink it.
This time it was a summer sake. The standard green label may be often seen.
Cold sake.
Juicy, sweet ginjo aroma. As described in the brewer's introduction, there is a faint aroma of melon.
Slightly sweet but with a firm sharpness. It gave the impression of being a very modern type of sake, but when I drank it, I was surprised to find that it was more modern and classic.
According to the brewer's introduction, it is recommended to be served with summer vegetables such as tomatoes and eggplants. We enjoyed it with a side dish of Gyukaku's Yamitsuki Shio Okra (salted okra) that we purchased at the supermarket. It seems to go well with summer dishes with strong flavors.
It is suitable for intermediate level sake drinkers.
