Kirinzan超辛口(普通酒)
くるまや
Sake from Aga-machi, a mountain town in the Shimoetsu region of Niigata Prefecture. This "Super Dry" is a spicier version of the brewery's regular "Traditional Dry" sake, and is sold only through special dealers. The mouthfeel is tangy and refreshingly spicy, while the sweetness of the koji (malted rice) is also clearly felt. This balance of sweet and spicy is exquisite👍️.
Today, I went to the mountains of Aga Town to pick butterbur sprouts by myself. While they were still fresh, I made fuki-miso (bean paste) with them. Tonight I had it as a snack. I picked my own wild vegetables and local sake...how could they not go well together?
