Mellow! It's fruity and heavy on the palate. The throat is also slightly assertive. After the belly drop, it's not persistent, but it burns for quite a long time, and it's nice... â
Probably the best taste like this for me 😋🍶.
I am traveling again around the border between Sanyo and San'in regions.
One of the towns that will be my base on this kind of trip is Niimi. Last time I had lunch at the diner in front of the station, but it was closed this time. I couldn't find any other reasonable restaurants and didn't have much time, so I bought some locally brewed sake at a supermarket and drank it.
The fresh sweetness of the rice filled my mouth, but it had a sharp throat and a sharp drop in the stomach. Unlike other types of sake, I prefer sake with a shorter production date (this one was made in May 2013). Old sake is too sticky and stubborn for me.
First time in Tottori. An acquaintance recommended it to me and I bought it at a nearby department store....
As it turns out, it was my least favorite type 😭.
It was thick like Shaoxing wine, yet not too sweet, no sharpness. The smell is like shiitake mushrooms. More like "that smell" I've smelled many times, mainly in India. You know, the smell of underground wells and cave temples....
This brewery seems to make a sake that is suitable for heating up, and perhaps it was my fault for drinking such a thing at room temperature. I am sure it would taste wonderful if it were heated up. But we don't have a microwave oven.
I guess I didn't have much luck with this brand. I feel bad for the acquaintance who recommended it to me.
The palate is sweet like vanilla syrup. It goes down your throat with the same thickness as it is. But it is delicious because it does not have the clinginess of Shaoxing wine.
I was attracted to the label because of its eye-catching appearance!
It's water. It goes in easily and has a refreshing aftertaste. It's dangerous to drink it carelessly. I'm glad I chose to drink it in one cup.
