“美丈夫” What is the etymology of the word “beautiful”?

“美丈夫” The birth of Biyoufu and the origin of its name.

The new, highly anticipated brand was named “Bijoufu,” meaning “a fine man with beautiful appearance,” in reference to Ryoma Sakamoto, an aspiring samurai from Tosa (present-day Kochi Prefecture) at the end of the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Meaning of the word.

Bijofu is a dry sake with a graceful and refreshing taste. The sake’s name means “handsome man” or “handsome man” in Japanese dialect.

This sake has won a trophy at the International Wine! I have high expectations for you.

It is described as a sake full of flavor, with a gorgeous apple-like aroma, sweetness, and acidity. Is it similar to wine?

Comment: A
CEL-24 is the name of the yeast.
It came up when we were talking about the pull and sharpness of white wine and sake.It has a crisp sweetness and a beautiful pull. Perfect for a mealtime sake.

Comment: B
It has a pineapple smell and sweetness typical of CEL-24.
It is more smooth than the sweetness of Kameizumi and Kaygetsu, and the bitterness is cut off by a nice sourness. Delicious!

It has a peculiar taste. First-time sake drinkers may have some resistance to it. It has a strong sweet and sour taste. Even after drinking it down, it still has a strong alcohol taste. When chilled, it tastes more like wine. The taste is different depending on one’s taste preferences. It does not go well with seasonings, regardless of how strong or weak the flavor is. It is best as an aperitif on its own.

Today I paired it with roast beef salad.

This time it was not good. It doesn’t go well with the seasonings…
