Chokki
Sasanokawa 35-year old sake, Junmai
60% 17%, 500ml, 5000 yen
We went to a brewery in Koriyama, Fukushima Prefecture. It was a beautifully renovated and stylish space.
There was a sign that said "Milan Sake Challenge", a double gold medal winner, which I don't know what it means.
The sake was a dark color, almost black. It is rare to see such a color.
It does not have the strong smell of old wine and does not have a bad smell. It is a very thick and thick sake, almost like Shaoxing sake. It has a very deep taste and is quite delicious.
I would like to have a cup of sake while listening to Akari Machi's "My Birthplace is Koriyama".
When I thought about what I was doing 35 years ago, all I could think of was ping pong dash.
