It's been a long time since I've had one square! Akabu Steady Taste. I got my own sake brewery as a birthday present. It can hold 5 bottles of sake. I'm going to enjoy my ponzake LIFE even more from now on.
We decided on Viridian for our second bottle of 2023. It is a gorgeous sake with a slight effervescence, a wood vat aroma, and a fruity aroma like pears or apples. I felt as if I was drinking champagne or white wine. It is the kind of sake that can be enjoyed with a low alcohol content. Shinsei deserves to be number one after all!
After the countdown to the new year, I opened a bottle of my daughter's gift from Kanazawa, a wine with gold leaf, and toasted to the new year. It was easy to drink, and the gold leaves dancing in the wine glass were gorgeous and made me feel like it was going to be a good year. To everyone at Sake-no-Wa, thank you for your continued support this year.
I decided to make the sake for the 2022 closing. I bought it because it was sold in a stylish bag. It was a very rich sake suitable for the last year. It was very tasty.
The second bottle in the set of three to compare was Ten-Taka. It was a dry sake with a strong flavor and a hint of sourness. It is recommended as a food sake.
Souvenir from my son's trip to Nasu, Ohtawara City, a set of 3 bottles for drinking comparison, starting with Ohna. It is an easy to drink sake with a rich sweet taste.
We drank it chilled for a bit and then had it heated. As the bottle indicated that it was heated, it tasted much better when it was heated. The aroma, umami, and crispness were irresistible.
