Hiroshima Trip - 5th Cup
It has been a long time since I have had nigori sake. It is a thick nigori with a thickening sensation. The sweetness of the rice is strong.
Fourth cup on a trip to Hiroshima
The first sip had a bit of a tangy feeling on the nose, but as the sip progressed, a mellowness spread to the palate and a sweetness was felt. It has a sharpness that makes it refreshing to drink.
Since it was New Year's Day, I drank Otters. It was the first time for me to drink it, but it was indeed a very tasty daiginjo.
I'm going to get addicted to otters.
The second cup was served at the Jozankei Onsen inn on a trip to Hokkaido.
It seemed watery and thin, but when I sipped the dish, the bitterness emerged and the flavor spread.
At the inn of Jozankei Onsen (hot spring) on a trip to Hokkaido. The proprietress recommended this sake and we drank it. The brewery is located at the northernmost tip of Hokkaido. It is sweet but refreshing and easy to drink.
At a Genghis Khan restaurant in Asahikawa, Hokkaido.
I wondered if sake would go well with jingisukan, but it was fine and delicious. It has a freshness that only freshly stored sake can have, and the crisp yet mellow aroma in the mouth is indescribably delicious.
