酒楽座 いのうえ

のりたま
The acidity typical of Yamahai comes first, and then the umami spreads from there. This sake is said to have the same 17% alcohol content as the first glass of Kenshin Hiyaoroshi, but you do not feel that much alcohol. It has a freshness to it, but when drunk with pickles, the spiciness is stronger, making it a strange and tasty sake. I drank it cold this time, but the description says that heating it up is also good, and I thought so. Next time I have the chance to drink it, I'd like to try it heated.

The drink has a delicious mouthfeel, with a high alcohol content of 17% and an alcohol-derived aftertaste. The aftertaste is dry and refreshing. The sake is delicious on its own, but it is best drunk with food or with a side dish.

Manufactured in 2018 and shipped in 2020. It's a little ripe, but deliciously juicy. I think it's a bit similar to Okura's Naokumi, which uses the same Asahi rice.

I heard it's closed because the son who was the toji quit and moved to another brewery.

If you drink it chilled, it's less ripe.

Okura's Asahi was sweet and gassy, but this one is spicy.
