ひるぺこ
Today it is Toru Yoemon. It is a sake from Iwate. I was curious about this sake brewery because I read about it in dancyu. I went to have dinner at a restaurant and found Toru Yoemon there. I had no idea that I would find Junmai Namaisake! I had to try it! The aroma is like whiskey. The color is a light amber. I heard that it actually had a little more fizz, but it had been a while since the bottle was opened, so I couldn't really taste it. It was served cold, and the taste was sweet like raisins and brown sugar, with a sharp acidity. It has a bitter aftertaste with a freshness that makes it very drinkable, yet refreshing. In my mind, this sake has the taste of old Awamori sake! It is a unique taste that I have never had with sake before, but it reminded me of a delicious old Awamori Zuisen that I drank a long time ago.
