It's like a banana! But it's still sake. You can also taste the umami of rice. It also has the gentleness and mellowness of hiyaoroshi sake. Good as a food sake.
The aroma is moderate while the flavor is good.
In a good sense, there is no lingering aftertaste.
A perfect food sake that you will never get tired of drinking.
It is a perfect match for flatfish.
At a sushi restaurant near the brewery.
We received this as a souvenir from Kumamoto.
This sake is from the Kumamoto Sake Brewing Research Institute, which produced Kumamoto yeast.
It has a beautiful aroma and soft acidity, typical of No. 9.
It has no outstanding characteristics, but on the other hand, you will never get tired of drinking it.
It can be drunk in large gulps when chilled to a crisp.
The aroma is high, but the taste and aftertaste are clean.
It is a little insufficient for drinking by itself.
It would be good with a meal, but I think it would be outclassed by horse-meat.
After the subtle aroma of rice, the sourness lingers on.
When paired with grilled bamboo shoots, the sweetness of the bamboo shoots and the savory aroma of the soy sauce are enhanced, and the sake is sweeter than when served alone. It is a wonder.
Compare with Bodhi Hashiroshi.
Slight amazake aroma that passes through the nose. Good sharpness.
Compared to Bodai Hashiro, it is lighter in acidity and umami.
Is this the difference in history?
Recommended as a local sake from Kochi that you won't get tired of drinking. The tiger on the label doesn't seem to have the same impact or glamour as the first sip, and it is true that it is a little sad...
But maybe this kind of sake can be drunk many times over and not get boring.
