Walking through the streets of Ine cooled me down a bit, so I warmed up some local sake. It has a strong flavor that lingers on the palate. It also warmed me up, which is a function of the situation.
I have been drinking it at a store in Toyooka, and according to the owner, the Kozumitsuru mentioned in the previous post and this Takezumi (Taji rice) are the core of Tajima's locally brewed sake. I think it is a sake that retains the strength of the rice and is rooted in the region.
Oh, it's delicious. The aroma is not a standout type, but it has a nice aroma in the mouth. It seems that it is often described as well-balanced, and it really is. I could drink it all the time.
One glass cold. It won the gold medal in the heated sake contest, so I had another glass heated. I was surprised to find that when heated, the sharpness disappeared and the fruity flavor came forward.
It was a complete mistake to let it sit for so long after receiving it, and the aroma was lost. The concept was that it was made from Miyawaka City's prized rice, and you could feel the strength of the rice. I should have opened the bottle earlier.
Kinzen Aimusume Handmade Sake
This sake is produced by the Aimusume Sake Brewing Company in Unzen City, Nagasaki Prefecture. The sweetness is followed by a weak acidity.
A grainy texture that makes you want to chew on it (lol). The sweetness and acidity are well pronounced, and there is a feeling of carbonation. It is interesting that even after opening the bottle, there is the impression that the sake is still being made.
