It smells a bit like fire-roasted sake and is a bit rough for a nama-shu, but I still like the lively quality of the sake. It lacks a little transparency, but it is delicious enough.
Paired with Chutoro Salt Seared, Kohada, Isagi, and Saikyo Yaki.
Sake that is somewhat dense but not fire-roasted, smooth and delicious without the smell of fire-roasting.
I heated it up and made it into a fugu-hire-shu, so I think the taste has changed a lot from the original, but I still prefer junmai with a pure yeast yeast yeast yeast for hot sake.
It has the taste of hi-ire sake itself. There are many junmai ginjos that I like even if they are fire-aged, but this is a somewhat old-fashioned or traditional style of sake. I prefer this kind of sake with grilled fish rather than sashimi.
Recently, I have not been able to drink anything other than nama-zake, but I confirmed that I can enjoy hiyaoroshi (freshly brewed) without feeling it has been fire-roasted. I had the impression that Eiko-Fuji was a bit sweet, but it was dense and sweet, but just right.
The once-hot sake I bought to go with the mackerel sushi had a slight aroma of being cooked, but the level was high, dry and somewhat light, but the rice flavor was properly expressed and delicious.
I've only been interested in nama-shu lately, but this is delicious. It is fruity like a junmai daiginjo, with little riceiness, and even though the alcohol is low at 13%, it is very drinkable without feeling like it. It is soft and smooth.
A souvenir from Niigata. The sake was a draft sake, but for a Niigata sake, it was dense and heavy. It is strong, but still easy to drink without the characteristic aroma of hi-ire.
While the sake has a slightly sweet taste, it still smells like it has been fire-aged.
I like it if it is this perfect, but it is hard to buy it when you know that you can drink it cheaply and deliciously if it is not fire-aged.
It is a wonderful sake.
The taste has a unique impression of wine made with wild yeast because no yeast is used, and the taste has a strong lactic acidity only from the sake brewing process. It has a slightly matured feel and is in a good condition just before it turns sour.
I heard that this brewery is really great, so I bought a bottle. It is a well-balanced bottle that is smooth without being cloying, not too polished, and has a decent umami.
It has a fruity aroma and a sweet taste, but its dryness leaves a good balance on the palate.
The alcohol content is low at 14 degrees, so it is easy to drink.
These days I only drink sake that has not been fire-aged, but since the store is often not open on Sundays, I have a fire-aged junmai ginjo.
It is not about the sake brewer, but the fire-aged sake gives me a strong feeling in my stomach.
It seems to be too dry and suitable for hot sake, but I still prefer the raw sake.
Frozen Nama Sake. This technique does not really require heating, yet the sake can be enjoyed as it cools down from hibernation as it is.
Sake that is smooth and fresh.
It has a slightly old bran-like aroma as if it were fire-roasted for an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake, and has a fresh but traditional sake-like flavor.
