もよもよGifu's W was delicious when I drank it before, so here it is again. The label is as sparkling as ever, and that alone is promising.
This sake is quite dark and fruity, with a solid sweetness. Sticky sweetness like banana or peach. It is my favorite type. Especially since this sake is unfiltered, unfiltered raw sake, the richness may be more pronounced.
Perhaps, but I feel that this sake would go well with strong-flavored Western food. Like white sauce or fish white meat grilled in butter.
Purchased from: Shimizuya もよもよI received a bottle of W, a sake from Gifu that I had been curious about. The W in the brand name has three meanings: Watanabe Sake Brewery Watanabe, World World, and Laughing Warai. The stylish letter "W" looks great in the name that aspires to the world.
From the looks of it, W is for unfiltered unpasteurized sake or bottled sake. Expectations are high for the fresh taste.
It has a nice aroma, but when you take a sip, the sweetness is like a mixture of peaches and sugar. I don't think the habit is that strong, but the alcohol is 17%, and it feels thick. However, I don't feel any alcoholiness in the taste. Yes, this is my kind of sake.
It is my favorite sake, so much so that if I were asked to name a sake that I have enjoyed recently, I would be the first to mention it. I'd like to try it bottle-aged someday. もよもよI have an impression that there are many labels and kinds of Eikoh-fuji, but I was attracted by the word "super limited" that they ship only once a year, and I bought it.
I heard that it's a precious sake that you can only get if you attend a tasting event. It is shipped in spring, but I happened to be able to get it at the end of September.
The aroma is a little fruity like apples, and the first day I drank it, it had a bitter and fruity sweetness like brown sugar or wasanbon.
After 3~5 days, it has a black honey and grape/lychee like fruitiness.
I've only had the undiluted sake, but the Eikohfuji has a fruit freshness and a mild sweetness that I really like.
Purchased from: Shimizuya もよもよThis is a brand I've been interested in, Eikoh Fushi. I heard that the series of unfiltered raw sake is popular, so I tried Morinokuma-san.
Morinokumasan is a rice developed in Kumamoto, the capital of the forest, and this sake seems to have the purpose of reviving Kumamoto. The label of this sake is gorgeous and attracts the eyes.
It has a sweet aroma, and the taste is extremely sweet! In addition to the brown sugar-like taste, it has a sour taste like a lactic acid bacteria drink. It tastes like Wasanbon, but it has a sour taste. There is no bitterness at all. It will go well with strong flavored dishes.
Since the taste is very rich, we recommend drinking it slightly diluted on the rocks. It was a delicious sake that did not disappoint.
