Chokki
Shikaiou Makoto Junmai Ginjo
50% 15-16% Yamadanishiki 720ml 1716yen
I bought three bottles at a brewery in Aichi and brought them back to Tokyo to open them. Two of them have already been recorded in the sake book.
The first sip of the bottle.
Ah, it's good. It's fruity and juicy. The polish and aroma are well blended, and the taste is deep.
I was told by the brewer that the yeast used was 18 yeast. It's one of my least favorite yeasts, but I guess it depends on the amount used.
On their website, they say they have a patent for "high-temperature, high-heat brewing. I've heard that Miyoshikiku brews at a high temperature to produce acidity.
I drank it over several days, and as a sake with a juicy taste, it's good with food.
There have been very few posts about Shikaiou on Sake no Wa, but I think it's a great hidden sake that should definitely become famous.
