Iwakuni, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Murashige Brewery Co. Eight knot Light Yellow 2024 Bought when I went to Takashima after the storm passed with Mr. Bouken. It is a brewery that revived the Kyokai No. 8 yeast, and it is made with 80% polished rice. It is a test brew, so there is no front label. It is a test brew, so there is no front label. Mr. Bouken had informed us in advance that we needed to be careful when opening the bottle, but surprisingly, we were able to open the bottle with only a gas sound. The top aroma is a mixture of pineapple and a slightly pickle-like aroma. The color is quite yellowish and cloudy, and the mouthfeel has a slightly chuggy feeling. The moment you put it in your mouth, the hinted aroma has quite an impact. The aroma is a combination of grapefruit and lactobacillus, and pickle-like aroma. The taste is a combination of the lactobacillus and pickle-like aromas, and a sticky mass of sourness that lingers on the back of the tongue. It is sour and sweet, but complex in many ways, giving the impression of a pickle in the middle of fermentation. I thought it was sweet and sour and delicious when I tasted it, but... No, it's a pretty weird sake 🤣. I like it though 😋. Ingredients:Rice(domestic),Rice Koji(domestic) Rice polishing ratio:80 Alcohol content: 13%.

Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi. I'm relieved I'm not the only one who felt the pickle sensation 🤣. The brewery here seems to have a unique taste in the brewing water as well 🙄. A strange taste from the water 🤣.

Nemuchi and key shop -> purchased at Takashimaya after going to Sukumasa The person who came was Mr. Murashige, president of Murashige Sake Brewery😊. According to the internet, he is 36 years old. He was younger than me 😳. Not that it matters, but are Murashige Brewery and Anna Murashige related? She's from Yamaguchi 🤔. Sake brewed with Kyokai #8 yeast, which is not used very often. It's a test brew so it only has a label on the back. I was holding it down with my hand so it was fine, but when I opened the bottle the cork blew out 🤣great gas pressure even though it's fire-brewed😳. It's a very complex and interesting sake with a firm sweetness. Low alcohol content and easy to drink 😋. It has a lactobacillus drink and pickle feel to it and it's pretty kinky, so I guess I should have made this my offline drink 🤣. After a few days, the pickle feeling gets stronger and harder to drink💦. There's a sake brewery in front of Shin-Iwakuni station on the Shinkansen line that's super close to the station so everyone should go 🚅.

Hello bouken 🐦. There are many things about this sake that interest me 😆 It's rare to find a brewery near a train station and I'm related to Anna Murashige! I jumped on it 🤣. I'm sure the cork will fly out, it has a pickled feeling, is it a certified perverted sake? 🤣

Hi Pon-chan 😃 I looked at the map and it's really in front of the station, it's a level of surprise 🤣I'm from Yamaguchi and you said your father's family was rich, so maybe you're related to him by a distant relative or something? I thought 🤔 Personally, I think it's a perverted sake 🙄.
