Tatenogawa Junmai Daiginjo Genryu Cold Wholesale. Well, I'm glad I could drink it. I thought autumn would end without being able to drink it this year.
It has a strong umami and a roundness of flavor that is typical of hiyaoroshi. And yet it has a cool and sweet taste that goes down the back of the throat smoothly, as one would expect from Tatenogawa. I can't get enough of this depth of flavor.
Today, we are going to visit FUKU NO TORI Kojimachi branch, which we have been wanting to come for a long time but couldn't, to have some sake.
It's been a while since I've had one from Toyo Bijin. It is a limited edition Junmai Ginjo Aizan. It's the Toyo Bijin of Aizan!
I can't get enough of its sweet aroma like muscat. The word "sweet and delicious" fits it well. This is why Toyo Bijin is my favorite sake from Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Today, I went to the FUKU NO TORI Kojimachi store near my workplace.
I started with Mine-no-Hakubai Dai Dry Taste. I have had it before, but it is light with a consistent umami flavor. It has no heaviness, so it is easy to drink.
This is the one that I ended up having the third glass of.
Bon Junmai 55 Special Limited Junmai Sake. It is a dry, crisp sake with a strong umami flavor. It is a sake that can be enjoyed on its own.
It is the type of sake that can be enjoyed only when there are no more snacks.
Kudokibe Bakuren Ginjo Super Dry. It's been a while since I chose this from the grand menu, but things have changed a bit. There is a good sake here as well.
It is dry but has a very nice sharpness. I can't stop drinking it.
After work today, I went to FUKUNOTORI Kojimachi store.
We started with Koshino Katora Junmai Genshu. It is a pure sake, but it is refreshing and has a nice sharpness because it is well chilled.
I had less than half a bottle left, so I took the whole bottle.
This sake was drunk at a company drinking party.
I often drink Eiko-Fuji, but it still has a strong umami flavor. It is full-bodied, yet goes in easily.
A drink at my company's favorite restaurant, FUKU NO TORI. This kind of freedom is one of the strengths of a manager.
It is a dry Honjozo sake, but it is soft on the palate. It was easy to drink. It is just right for everyday drinking.
