Product Description
Sake Search Review
Yamamoto General Partnership, which is well-known as the producer of famous brands, “Shirataki” and “Yamamoto”, makes “Two Out Full Base.” This Two Out Full Base is paired with “Junmai Daiginjoshu Gyakuten Sayonara Manrui Home-run.”
The gift boxes are full of character. The color of the box for Two Out Full Base is blue, while the other is red.
Why the colors are chosen, is that Two Out Full Base meaning “bases loaded with two outs” is a highly nervous situation for your team. So, the blue color represents a negative feeling.
In contrast, Sayonara Manrui Home-run meaning “game-ending home run” is full of celebration. The red color indicates an abundance of joy.
Besides the colors, they provide useful information on baseball and a different type of scoreboard. With the board, you can play with your friends.
The brewery’s director, Mr Yamamoto hit on the idea while driving his car.
Many locals who live in Happo town of Akita prefecture enjoy baseball, regardless of their age, and also, Mr Yamamoto’s son plays baseball.
One day, he thought: “When people take a bottle of sake with the box to a baseball team for a party or at their training ground, if a sake box shows something related to a baseball game, it could be interesting and will excite the team.”
The brewery has grown organic rice in their field, and produce sakes, using the water that comes from the same water source as their rice field. The staff polish the rice at the brewery where Beatles’ tracks run.
[Taste]The aroma is mild like cotton. The sweetness dominates my sense.
The sweetness evokes green apples. It is very fruity but refreshing with a dry and clean finish.
It appears that the dry and bubbly texture is created by the second pasteurization followed by bottling.
[Food Pairing]“ Mabo Dofu” (tofu set in a spicy sauce, along with minced meat)
The sake complements Mabo Doufu.
The sweetness of sake brings umami flavor out of the dish and softens Sichuan peppers’ spiciness.
It strengthens the umami flavor which perfectly matches the spiciness coming from the fermented broad bean and chilli paste.
By and large, I felt that the sake takes Mabo Doufu’s deliciousness to another level.
“ Sake no hoiru yaki” (a salmon baked in foil)
Sake no hoiru yaki is a dish with a salmon baked in foil, alongside onions, Shimeji and Enoki Mushrooms with miso and mayonnaise sauce.
When I tried it with Two Out Full Base, the miso’s robust flavor went with the sweetness of the sake.
I enjoyed the gorgeous Autumn flavors with a whiff of the Japanese fragrant mushrooms!
