A brief review of the 2nd National Sake Breweries' Sake and Talks @ Kyoto Miyako Messe.
Yamano Sake Brewery in Katano City, Osaka Prefecture.
They brew Katano Sakura and Katano Sakura.
(The brewer, Mr. Masahiro Yamano was there.
This is a drop from Katanozakura.
It won a gold medal at the National New Sake Competition.
I told him, "I'm from Osaka, so I drink Katanozakura relatively often!" He recommended this one.
The aroma is not that memorable, but perhaps it is because it is made from a tobin (a small bottle of sake) and is made by hanging it in a bag, it has a very soft taste.
The taste is mild and conveys the sweetness and umami of the rice, yet it is not sluggish and flows smoothly through the mouth with a good sharpness.
It was a sake in which you could feel the goodness of an aluzoe daiginjo.
Speaking of Katanozakura, I had an image of Kurawanka, a slightly sparkling light nigori junmai sake, but that was simply because of my taste, and I must try this kind of authentic sake as well.
Thank you very much for the sake 🍶.
