The feeling of being drained from the umami taste. Alone, it does not give a refreshing feeling, but when combined with tempura, it gives a refreshing and light feeling.
A single bottle found in the refrigerator of the hotel's store.
The moment you put it in your mouth, it is water. After that, the flavor rises to the surface. A slight sweetness hangs on the back of the tongue and slowly disappears. It is refreshing.
It is said to be brewed with Nachi-no-Taki sacred water. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
There is a Lawson in the Hotel Urashima, where it is sold in a refrigerator. There is also a room temperature version. I bought it from the refrigerator.
It has a soft, sweet taste and a full-bodied flavor. The aftertaste is clean and the flavor remains well, giving it a high sake-like quality.
I was told that this brand is not often sold outside of the prefecture, so I was eager to try it on this trip.
Bokido is the hotel's main hot spring, so it is probably a private brand.
Ordering a kaiseki course at Sangamikan...
The menu listed it as medium spicy, but it was quite spicy!
It is quite a punch, but it goes well with the kaiseki menu here.
I bought it for the first time at an old (supposedly) sake shop that is a member of the Japan Famous Sake Association. It was displayed at room temperature in the storefront, and after returning home, I lightly chilled it in the refrigerator for about two hours before opening the bottle.
It was delicious. The moment I drank it, the umami flavor was in full swing. It is not sweet, but it has a moderate sweetness and a dry mouthfeel.
The label says something about the passage of time and fresh muscats, so it is wine-conscious.
I don't know if I will be able to drink it again, but it was a good sake.
Light and simple. Aroma is moderate, dry and watery. It is easy to drink by itself. It is a little weak with a meal. It is like drinking it while writing a blog and picking up oshinko (Japanese pickles).
The brewing water is from the brewery's own spring, selected as one of the 100 best waters. That's nice!
Bought it at Life.
Fluffy ginjo aroma right away. It's not a ginjo? It's so gorgeous. It is dry and has a delicious umami flavor.
The slightly bitter aftertaste amplifies the clean feeling.
This is delicious!
Pale yellow.
It is light, but has a mellow and light umami taste.
There is no alcohol taste on the nose, and it is a refreshing type of sake that goes down easy.
Yurihonjo City. I want to visit there.
The sake rice is Shirakaba Nishiki.
It has a light, lively taste, high acidity, and prune and apricot-like flavors.
Sake from Omachi. I will drink Shinshu sake widely.
Hatsushibori, or new sake.
It has a slightly mellow aroma, with a slight bitterness that starts to develop halfway through. It is on the heavy side. I paired it with motsu nabe (a hot pot of vegetables), but it was refreshing and drained off the fat.
Rice flavor from the palate. It is soft but has a strong flavor. Ginjo aroma that passes through the nose. It's like pear or something like that.
Junmai Daigin" is modestly written on the bottle.
Slightly cloudy.
It has a sensation of rising from zero on the palate. Although it is said to be dry, it has a sweetness at the beginning.
The acidity is clean. There is no sense of a nose-bleeding sensation, and the taste is light. The aftertaste is also acidic and fades quickly.
Sake from Itoigawa
Fresh acidity and ginjo aroma. Sake flavor is refreshing in the mouth. The sense of umami continues until the end. The rice used for the rice is "Saga no Hana". This is the first time for me to taste sake from Saga, but the description of the rice gives me a sense of Saga.
The description says that it is unfiltered, but the color is almost transparent.
Sake rice Oceto. This is the first time.
The aroma spreads from the refreshing acidity that spreads immediately upon contact with the palate. The acidity is beautiful and delicious! The aftertaste is also good, with the umami of the rice remaining in the mouth!
Sake is so deep!
