It's Sake Day 🍶.
Shirafuji Sake Brewery evacuated the Honjozo and Junmai-shu (Neine) that was topped up at the end of the year to the only thermal tank that was still in operation, while it was damaged by the Noto Peninsula earthquake.
The sake was then shipped out and bottled by Yoshida Sake Brewery.
First, it was served cold.
The aroma is gently banana and melon, with a freshness like green bamboo.
It has a deep sweetness like caramel, a nuance of cypress, and a rice aroma like freshly pounded rice cake.
From the dark rice sweetness, along with the light stimulation of alcohol, a moderately gentle acidity spreads with a sense of plump rice flavor, fades away and finishes with a sharp finish.
Ah, this is the Shirakiku of Okunoto: ☺️
It is soft and gentle with a strong flavor.
.
Warmed up 🍶.
The caramel-like sweetness is enhanced and the rice aroma has the aroma of freshly cooked rice.
A sense of fluffiness with fullness in the sweetness.
The taste is rich but not angular, with a soft, thick sweetness and umami that gently spreads, and the acidity, including a slight spike, rises from the back of the throat to the nose.
Ahhh, this is also Okunoto's Shirakiku. ☺️
The sweetness and umami that is brought out by heating up the sake is very intoxicating.
We hope that Okunoto Shirakiku will be brewed again in Wajima as soon as possible.

Good evening, Aladdin 🌘.
I hope it's a day when the drinkers and those who serve them can drink as pleasantly as today.
By the way, that's a cool looking sake bottle 😎.
It will make for better heated sake 😄.

Good evening, Maru 😃.
We only have this Kuroryu x Nosaku tin tokuri "Ryu" so this is the one we always use to warm up our sake 🐉🍶.
I put it in hot water off the heat and let it slowly warm up to a little over 45 degrees Celsius, then drink it warmed and cooled 🍶🍶☺️
