生まれも育ちも静岡県浜松市。 しばらくロカボなウィスキー中心だったところ、30代半ばでその香りや味の幅広さに感動して以来、色々な銘柄を楽しませてもらってます。 香り高く甘味のある酒が好み。それでいて後味が辛口でキリッと締まっていると料理とも合って良いですね。

Aramasa陽乃鳥貴醸酒

shiny.u
It is characterized by a sweet and sour taste that is not confined to the boundaries of sake. They do not use additives (brewing acids, deacids, enzymes, inorganic salts, vitamins, etc.) that are exempt from labeling requirements. It is ranked second in Japan and first in Akita Prefecture on a certain sake evaluation website. It is lucky that we were able to find this sake, as it costs more than 20,000 yen per bottle. When I told them my sake preference at the izakaya "Uomotsu Musashi Kosugi," they introduced me to them. This is a hidden sake that is supposed to be above the premium line such as Tasake and Nabeshima.

Slightly yellowish. Cold: Mild aroma, punchy sweetness and umami. It can be enjoyed on its own, but the dry aftertaste makes it a good mid-meal drink as well. Warmed: The sweetness and dryness become milder, and the taste is richer. 100% Hitogochiki from Nagano Prefecture This is a sake brewer recommended by Arakawa Sake Shop, a popular liquor store in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture, which sells a lot of new sake at the time of year. It is indeed a type of taste that is hard to find.

Room temperature: mild aroma, a little bit of sake's matured taste, which I personally don't like. Hot: Slightly easier to drink. The label recommends this temperature range. It is a rare taste for Hana-no-Mai, but surprisingly, there seems to be a certain number of people who are ardent fans of this brand. It is only available in bottles of 1.5 liters or larger. They say the flavor is such that you can drink it every day and not get tired of it.

Cold: Sweetness spreads at first, then becomes dry. However, the sweetness continues, or perhaps because of the bitterness in the second sip, it is better to put a pinch or a glass of water between sips. The picture of a pretty girl was a little resistant to me.
