We had it at soba noodles restaurant after the first visit to the shrine. They recommend it at room temperature. It is also good for hot sake. I'm not sure.
I got this from you last year 🎵.
I think it's my first time to drink in Tokyo.
Personally, I don't think I would choose this sake often!
It's a bottle, so it doesn't fit in the fridge, and it's been stored in its packaging at room temperature for almost a year.
If you look at the label, it looks like it should have been stored at room temperature 🎵.
I looked it up and it is a sake brewery in Hachioji. I drank it warmed up this time because they said it would be fine in any temperature range🎵.
The aroma is soft and gentle, like cooked rice.
When I drank it, it was not as dry as I thought it would be, but it had a sweetness to it, not the glamour of today, but easy to drink.
If the sake quality doesn't change too much, you can easily drink it as a heated sake when you want to 😄.
It's delicious for what it is 🎵.
After climbing Mt. Takao for the first time, we had a remembrance party? I met a delicious local sake at The place was Sakaechaya Honten.
It was a gentle and delicious sake that soaked my slightly tired body.
We looked around to buy some as souvenirs, but unfortunately we couldn't find any.
Guess we'll have to go back up there!

About the producer
Hachioji once flourished as an inn town along the Koshu Kaido Road, and was once known as the "Mulberry City" for its silk weaving and sericulture.
In the center of the city, the merchant houses that supported the former post town are now in the city.
The kimono shop, which still remains today and is owned by the family of a very famous female musician, seems to be doing very well.
If you walk a little bit closer to Takao from the draper, you will see it across the Koshu Kaido.
There were two breweries that used the Chichibu water system to brew their sake, but in 2003 Nishioka Shuzo, which changed its name from "Shakai-kan" to "Gassimaru", merged with Kawamura Shuzo of Fukui Prefecture, and they decided to continue brewing in Fukui as Nishioka Kawamura Shuzo, with Ozawa Shuzo Brewery as the sole guardian of their base.
The Ozawa Sake Brewery was founded in 1925.
