I came to Nagasaki on a business trip, so I had a stable of Tobiran Classics. Along with Nagasaki's local fish and oden, which is boiled in whale and fish broth.
Hitogochi is used. Summer Ginjo.
It has a strong alcohol taste. The aroma is gorgeous. It has a summer sake feel to it. However, many people may not be comfortable with the alcohol taste.
Ihyakumangoku, Kyokai 901 yeast.
I was prepared for it when the store owner told me there was no sweetness at all, but it is actually a very excellent sake with low alcohol and lingering umami. Super interesting. You have to go to a local store to drink this kind of sake.
Unlike most unfiltered raw sake, this sake is not spectacular, but it has a hint of something more. I thought it was of a high level that it was not just a light sake.
I wondered what would happen if Tosatsuru, a mainstream dry rice brewer, brewed Akebono and Matsuyama Mitsui, two rice varieties that produce a relatively umami flavor.
It may be surprisingly well-balanced. The astringency is a little strong. It may not be suitable for those who like modern sake.
A chaotic combination of Miyamanishiki, Yamae Nishiki, and Yamada Nishiki. Moreover, it is Yamahai. It has a strong lactic acid flavor and a fruity aroma. It is not suitable for light white sashimi, but would go well with yakitori and other dishes.
