Another fun episode from the History of #Japan podcast, this one on #nihonshu. One reason this podcast has been going for so long (10+ years) is that Isaac Meyer's love of his subject comes through in every episode.

Tonight's tipple: Ibi Junmai Ginjo 131st Anniversary Bottle
Sugihara Shuzo is in the running for Japan's smallest sake brewery, but the flavor it pours out punches way above its weight.
Gorgeous, complex, big and full . I'll never say no to Ibi.

Nishiki Sekai Junmai Namazake
Takeuchi Shuzojo
I had the chance to taste this one today, and it really drove home how widely sake does vary. I don't think most drinkers would sip this rich, dry, heavy sake and realize it was nama.

Kanki Junmai Daiginjo Nama
Sumikawa Shuzojo
This is a special sake from the Toyobijin brewer made every year from organic Yamadanishiki rice from Fukumoto Takuo, who is also a good friend, and the chance to drink something so deeply local is a genuine joy.
Every year it presents a different face, and this year's is all about big, luxurious, fruity sake with fascinating depth.
