Sake from Akita
It is a newly established brand and was created by the brewer, Mr. Satoshi.
It is said to be an easy-drinking sake with low alcohol content and acidity, and that is exactly what it was.
Easy to drink and delicious!
Sake from Akita
Harukasumi also released Rokugo Higashine, but both are made from Misato Nishiki, and the difference between them is the rice paddies.
The sake and acidity levels are almost the same, so I chose this one because of its pink label.
It was a delicious sake with a well-balanced, mellow flavor.
It would have been nice to compare them!
Gorgeous aroma
Slight sense of gas
Juicy sweetness
However, since it is hiyaoroshi, the corners are removed and the impression is mellow.
When paired with food, it does not interfere with the flavor and brings out the best.
Gorgeous aroma and a slight sense of gas.
Umami and sweetness typical of Omachi.
Still, it has a mild impression like hiya oroshi.
So it can be enjoyed with food without the sweetness getting in the way.
I was going to ask for Jikin Asahi, but was told that it was empty.
I was told that they had some Senbon-Nishiki instead, so I was given an unopened bottle of Jikin. Lucky me!
It was fruity and had a slight gassy feeling, but maybe because it was freshly opened, it seemed a bit light.
But when paired with food, its juiciness stands out!
Hello, Shou-san!
Even without Jikin-sama's Asahi, you opened Senbon Nishiki - what a great lineup you have here 😍!
I do have the impression that Senbon Nishiki is one of Jikin's most refreshing ✨.
Jikin-sama is a really good sake 😋.
Hi, Shou-san. I have never used Standing Bar Matsuzaki as a corner bar, but it has a nice lineup! The Senbon-Nishiki has a strawberry-like flavor with a nice aftertaste that cuts right through at the end!
ma-ki-San I was happy to witness the opening ceremony of Jikin-sama for the first time 😆.
It's so profound how different rice can give different impressions 😆.
