Tompei's original sake that I got as a souvenir.
Produced by Ichinokura
I did a quick search on how Tohoku University was involved, and found that they were involved in everything from breeding the sake rice to selling it.
I don't know much about sake brewing, but I'm sure they went through a lot of trouble.
Delicious!
Tomorrow is a day off, so I will have a relaxing evening drink with my wife.
The aftertaste is refreshing and easy to drink!
I found a Junmai Daiginjo in my sake bag.
Does it have a strong acidity?
I was surprised at the first sip because it didn't seem like sake, but I kept thinking that it was because it was aged in red wine barrels, and as I drank it, it became more familiar to my palate.
The label is stylish!
I haven't had sake in ages!
I wonder if this kind of taste is called [sour]?
The label says it's "round", but I think it tastes sharp!
Maybe we have different senses of "sharp" 😅.
I don't drink a lot of shakes because they're so sweet.
The Ottersai shake has a strong sake flavor from the liquid that settles at the bottom, and when you mix it with the shake, it neutralizes the sweetness and is delicious✨.
I was confused when I went to buy it at moss thinking it was a warm sweet sake and it was a shake lol
This is one of the bottles that came in the sake grab bag!
There are so many kinds of sake that it always takes me a long time to choose one, but with the Fukubukuro, I don't have to choose, and I can enjoy the excitement of not knowing what's inside and drinking sake that I wouldn't choose myself!
I found the aftertaste to be bittersweet!
Is it because it's a Junmai Ginjo that it has a strong rice flavor?
I've read a book before about the different types of alcohol and I can't remember 🙍
Easy to drink and delicious.
The liquor store I purchased it from recommended room temperature, so I didn't chill it.
I think it's easier to taste at room temperature!
I've also heard that the flavor changes over time, so I'll give it a little bit of time.
