Tobi Special Junmai Tamba Unfiltered Unpasteurized Sake
Melon-like sweetness and sweet aroma of rice.
It is a lightly nigori sake.
It has a thick sweetness and flavor that spreads in the mouth.
When the temperature is between snow chilled and flower chilled, you can feel a hint of gas.
After that, gentle acidity and bitterness come in with the sweetness and softly finish the whole impression.
The bitterness also has a unique lees flavor.
This is the first time I've had the chance to taste it.
The name of the brand, "Ibi", comes from the name of the place "Ibi" and the aspiration to "shoot beautiful sake".
The Sugihara Sake Brewery was founded in 1892 and has a 100-year history.
Currently, there are only two employees: Shoji Sugihara, the president, and Keiki Sugihara, the fifth generation sake brewer, making it the smallest sake brewery in Japan.
Mr. Keiki started brewing sake as a company employee in order to take over the family business.
He is said to have studied together with the brewers of "Jikon," a local sake from Mie Prefecture that has been praised as a great sake.
