SAMURAIZ
Today, I brought back "Hououmida" from my business trip.
We are about to have "ehomaki" for Setsubun, but today's table is full of thick sardines, grilled with sake kasu (sake lees), and furofuki daikon (Japanese radish), so we will savor the sake slowly.
The bottle is opened with a pleasant pop. In the mouth, as the label says, it has a muscat flavor, with green apple and berries spreading juicily on the palate. The reproducibility of the flavor is just as the label says, and it is "amazing.
The bitterness is almost imperceptible due to the skillful blending, and it is delicious on its own as well. It goes well with the saltiness of dried sardines. If only I could buy this in my neighborhood....
