60% polished rice
Jacket purchase. It was my first time to check out the yeast Giovanni, and I was also curious about the koji, Reimei Hiraizumi.
I wondered if it had a strong alcohol taste and a weak junmai taste. But as it cools down, it gives the impression of a strong sweetness that spreads quickly in the mouth. It may not be good for those who like dry sake. I don't like the alcohol taste or the attack of the alcohol...

Sakura Face Sake Brewery in Morioka City is now a subsidiary of Yoshimura Food Holding.
◉Sakuraface Special Junmai
Sakuraface Special Junmai is made from Ginotome sake rice. It has a soft mouthfeel, but the flavor is rich, dark, sweet and delicious, quite to my liking.
Bouken-san told me he had had it at the Keihan Department Store in Camphor, and I was too drunk to recognize it at the time. I was too drunk to recognize it at the time, but I do remember sending a picture of it at Keihan in Camphor to the group line. I didn't buy or drink it, but I wish I had. It's amazing how much you remember about people.
Iwate sake was quite strong and I think I liked it a lot.

I forgot to take a picture of this sake and the next one I'm going to post, so I borrowed them from Nemuchi-san!
Too much drinking and only empty bottles.
I bought a bottle of summer sake on a business trip to Morioka and emptied it at home with a friend!
It's refreshing and light like water. It goes well with all kinds of food!
This is "Tokusen Junmai Ryo no Shizuku," a summer sake from the Sakura Face Shuzo brewery in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture.
It is a delicious sake with a refreshing and crisp taste as a summer sake, but with lingering rice flavor and aroma typical of junmai sake.
The label with raccoon dogs, foxes, rabbits, and kappa having a party is also cute.
Souvenir from a friend in Yamagata ^ ^.
Oh, well? It's Iwate's sake!

This is a special junmai nama-zakari sake from the Sakuraface Shuzo brewery in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture.
It was a delicious sake with a firm umami flavor, yet easy to drink thanks to its refreshing acidity.
