とくさん
In order to send New Year's sake to relatives who have been good to me, I stared at the refrigerator at the Haruyama Sake Shop. I decided to send two bottles, one of which was a 39-year-old Kankiku, which has a straightforward and modern meaning of gratitude.
The other one is a different type, and I lost my way and decided to use this black cow for the Chinese zodiac. It's more of a classic type, BY30, matured Omachi, so I expected it to go well with nabemono.
I had never tasted Kurogyu before, so I bought a bottle and tasted it myself. Thanks to the aging process, the taste is not violent and the aroma is acceptable. The Omachi has a round taste with a strong presence and a good balance of power. I'm thinking of spending the New Year's Eve with this and Motsu-ni.
I hope we can drink good sake again in the New Year. Please be careful not to drink too much, and we wish you good health.
