The last of July ends with a dry sake
My favorite Chiyomusubi Konaki Junmai, this time a dry Yamadanishiki. I guess it is the opposite of Kawanakajima Genmai.
When opened, it is fresh and piquant, slightly effervescent, with a moderate bouquet.
Tokujun Yamada is a clean and refreshing version of Genshu Mai. It is best served at room temperature in a glass of wine.
The balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity is excellent. It finishes with a slight bitterness characteristic of Genmai, and has a clear aftertaste.
As the day goes by, the impression is that the rich umami gradually increases. The gradation of flavors can be enjoyed and is recommended for women.
Happy Taro Brewery is the only one of the Craft Sake Breweries that specializes in doburoku. It is also active as a miso and koji maker, and its unique koji making process, a hybrid of sake and koji, is a draw.
Shiga Prefecture, where the Happy Taro Brewery is located, is a region with a unique fermentation culture centered around Lake Biwa. Focusing on the fermentation of narezushi, a representative of Shiga's fermentation culture, we took on the challenge of making doburoku, a doburoku that utilizes lactic acid bacteria derived from narezushi.
The first step is to make a lactobacillus-derived sake. After the lactobacillus is first infused, yeast No. 601 and No. 701 are added, just as in the case of a sake mother.
The strong koji molding process in the Happy Taro Brewery style brings out the flavor of "Omachi" rice from Nemoto Organic Farm in Minamisoma, while IDAHO7, SIMCOE, and CHINOOK are blended and dry-hopped.
The fermentation of microorganisms brings out a nostalgic and seductive aroma, with flavors of peach and apricot. The taste is finished with a unique, bouncy acidity produced by lactic acid bacteria and the umami of rice. It also features the smooth mouthfeel of doburoku and a slight bubbly sensation derived from fermentation.

Tazake Junmai Ginjo Kojo-no-Nishiki
Kojo-no-no-nishiki" comes from the rice used for this sake, Kojo-no-no-nishiki.
Kojo-no-no-nishiki was developed by Aomori Prefecture in 1968 by crossing the sake rice "Gohyakumangoku" with the Aomori rice "Aosei-50".
It is delicious even though it has been left to mature for a year.

Ashiri" is an Ainu word meaning "new. The mild lychee-like aroma is pleasant, and a refreshing acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits runs through the mouth. The lingering slight bitterness is well balanced, making it a summer sake that is light and easy to drink.
Junmai Ginjo made from "Sake Komachi" produced in Akita Prefecture. It has an elegant aroma, peachy sweetness and flavor, and a very cohesive, rich, sweet taste.
This sparkling sake was created in the image of white wine under the theme of "a sake that makes an ordinary day a special day. It is characterized by a higher acidity than regular sake and a subtle sweetness.
The name "Taiyo-iro" (sun color) refers to the color of the sake itself. The color is reminiscent of the fresh color of the sun.
<Sake quality type and recommended drinking style
Sparkling sake with a refreshing acidity. Please drink it chilled.
Fresh citrus aroma, reminiscent of lime. In the mouth, beautiful acidity with presence and sparkle. It is as if the fruit is being bitten into and overflowing with juicy acidity! The acidity is juicy, as if it were overflowing from a bite of fruit. The second half is light, crisp, light, pale, and pleasantly acidic. The aromas and flavors are clear and fresh, along with the various acids, and are just what is needed to bring out the summer season. This year's "adult lemon squash" is alive and well!
It is a waste of time, so we let it sit for half a year even though it is a draft sake. It has acidity, effervescence, and flavor, and is an energy drink for adults!
