Sanwa Shuzo's Karashima: Limited to Kyukunokura
This sake is made from Hinohikari rice produced in Oita Prefecture, polished to 65% flat rice. It has a good sweetness and umami flavor, and is refreshing on the palate. It is a promising sake.
Fried horse mackerel as a side dish
I took a break from work and took a ferry to Beppu: 🛳️
My wife, who is in charge of trip planning, was so excited. She must have looked really tired😅.
I washed my mind at a luxurious inn.
The only thing I knew about Oita Prefecture was Chiebijin, but there was also this Waka Botan, Nishi no Seki, Kaorucho, etc.
The waitress told us that this Waka Botan was very strong. She said that people who don't drink much sake are surprised by it.
Really? Well, I am a beginner, so I was surprised.
It is true that it has a strong acidity like white wine, but it is sweet and very tasty.
There was also a green label of Chuebijin's rarely seen edible rice "Shunyo", which was also delicious.
It is also delicious.
Juicy sake, like muscat or melon.
Oita Prefecture is amazing!
Waka Botan, is it a rare sake? I looked it up on Sake-no-wa and found that Nemuchi-san is drinking it!
As expected of the first 🫶 I have nothing but respect 🤭.
Good evening, Mr. Maru🌛.
Is this the new ship [Sunflower] from Osaka Port?
I'd like to take it once 🥰.
Oita sake is rare, but I went to Nikomaru Shuppan with bouken the other day and got "Hanashimi" ✨.
Good evening, Maru 😀
It sounds like your trip on a nice boat with great sake was a great trip for you to relax from your daily fatigue😇.
After living in Kyushu for so many years, I was disappointed to find out that there are so many good sake brands in Kyushu because of all the shochu 😅.
Maru, good evening 🌛You had a wonderful trip where you met some weirdo liquors thanks to your wife's thoughtfulness 😆 I had Waka Botan a while ago and it was delicious 😋I just happened to buy it and it was 🫶spec 🤣.
Good evening, Maru-san!
I love your trip to Beppu for taking care of a tired Maru-san ✨.
I don't know much about Oita sake, so I'll refer to this 😋.
The food looks delicious too 🤤.
Hi Maru 🐦.
Beppu on ⛴️! I'm glad you're getting there in your sleep😊and the food and sake on ♨️! It's nice that they have local sake in that area 👍I'll take a lesson from Maru-san, who can drink a perverted sake easily 😆.
Hi Gyve 😊
We took the prestigious Taiyo Ferry on the way there and the new Sunflower on the way back: 🛳️
The Sunflower was absolutely gorgeous👍!
I didn't know there was such an Oita sake as "Hanashimi" 😳.
Oita sake is surprisingly deep 🧐.
Hi Maru, ☀️
Wow ‼️ delicious food, local sake and hot springs...what a wonderful trip 🥰Mrs.✨Beppu has a very emotional atmosphere with its steamy atmosphere in the whole city ♨️ I'm glad you enjoyed the rare 🫶 and refreshed yourself 😆.
Good evening, Yasube-san 🌘.
Beppu Onsen ♨️ was very healing ☺️
As you said, Kyushu is known for its shochu, but the sake is also very good!
How about a Kyushu sake tour with Kaorin? I'm sure you'll have a great time 😏.
Good evening, Nemuchi 🌘.
Yes, I finally got my perverted drink 😅I thought I was about to be excommunicated by the chairman, which is a relief 🤣.
I think Waka Peony is going to be rather popular.
Good evening, ma-ki-chan🌘"This year, I'm going to attack the east! My wife is a manly wife who cares about my tiredness and will not hesitate to take me to a luxury hotel 👍Oita sake is quite high quality! You should try it!
Hi Pon, Good evening 🌘Ferry 🛳️ is awesome. I really get there while I'm sleeping. It's so easy, I don't even feel like I've been to Kyushu 🤣.
This Waka Botan Yoihana is like an introduction to kinky sake, so it was perfect for me as an apprentice 🤣.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌘.
The ferry 🛳️ trip is going to be addictive 🥰.
My fatigue was wiped away by my kind wife👹, hot springs♨️ and delicious food🍽️ and kinky drinks🍶. ☺️
Kyushu is the best! I want to go back😊
Good evening, Kotaro-san 🌘.
Beppu is amazing, the steam 💨 was really rising and I thought it was a hot spring town.
I also enjoyed the hell tour👍.
I also soaked my body with perverted sake 🥰.
Oita Pref. Usa City. Sanwa Sake Brewery Co.
Waka Botan Yoihana.
Sake from the brewery that produces the famous shochu "Iichiko".
It is served cold.
When I poured it into a glass, I found countless tiny microbubbles adhering to the glass.
The color is clear, and the yellowish tint is surprisingly obvious.
The top aroma is sour and sweet, like pineapple.
The mouthfeel is a bit heavy and thick.
The nose is clear, rich, sweet, and juicy with a slight sourness that gradually rises to the surface. The acidity lingers on the tongue. The aftertaste is also long.
The taste is modern and white wine-like, with a very rich sweetness and an acidity that balances the sweetness so as not to leave any sweetness behind.
According to the QR code, it is made with white malted rice, Kyokai 1801 yeast, Hinohikari sake rice, -20.7 sake degree, 2.2 amino acidity, and 5.5 acidity.
These are quite unique values.
It is similar to the Aizan, a mizu-hashiro sake made by Amezure, which I drank a while ago.
I think it would be good if they put more effort into sake sales.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic)
Alcohol content: 15%.

The aroma is gorgeous and fruity❤.
It's just like it says, apple 🍎.
Flat taste impression
So you can keep drinking it even though it is fruity.
Holly goes well with dried figs and cream cheese.
