We visited Tsushima Tsuru at Metropolitan Morioka New Wing last month.
Sake comparison set at the celebration party.
The second glass was a special junmai sake from Sakura Face in Morioka City.
Sorry.
Sakuraface is often included in all-you-can-drink plans at izakaya (Japanese style pubs), so I had that image in my mind. (^_^;)
In fact, the all-you-can-drink plan is not so tasty, so my preconceived notions might interfere with my taste buds... (@_@)
I changed my mind and took a sip.
Oh, it is indeed a little more aggressive, but tasty in its own way.
I don't think I would actively want to drink it, but I wonder if it would go well with food?
Hello Tomoyuki Kumagai 😃.
I see you often use the Metropolitan Morioka restaurant: ❗️
It's very convenient and close to the station.
I've only been there for lunch on the first floor 😅
Hi, Chichi! I'm so glad you're here 😃
I'm a bit excited about Tsushima Tsuru because they have collaborations with local breweries and offer a wide range of different local sake! 😁
They have another event planned around July, so come on in! 👍
It's been 12 days since I had a coronary on January 9. Since it was a business trip to Morioka, I drank some Iwate sake. I'll try not to drink too much.
Sakura Face Special Junmai Sake
Freshly Pressed Unblended Sake
This morning packed sake Directly from Morioka
Made with domestically produced U.S. rice malt
Polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 18%.
Sake meter degree - Acidity
On Friday, 1/12, I went to a major department store on my way home and bought a bottle of nigori sake.
Unfamiliar brand and brewery
As far as I can tell, Tomoyuki Kumagai is the only one who has reposted this sakura face 🤔 Furthermore, this sake has not been posted yet!
The smell after opening the bottle is weak, but I think it's more like the smell of koji than the smell of rice!
It masks the smell of alcohol very well.
When you put it in your mouth, the delicious spiciness fills your mouth! It is not a strong spiciness! It is a little bit strong and spicy!
But you can also feel the gorgeous umami in the spiciness!
The spiciness may be the only thing that comes through for some drinkers, but that may be due to the high alcohol content💦.
We also tried heating the sake.
Warmed sake and human skin warmed sake have more umami than cold sake.
A minor but good sake 😍.
Delicious!
I usually enjoy it with sashimi, but I drank it with cheese 😍Mimollette, smoked plain, cheddar, gouda, samsoo, they all go well together 😘I think my favorite is mimollette 🤤.
Good evening, kozo🦉.
I've never seen this brand before 😳It's great that you haven't posted anything on Sake no Wa! And it looks great cold or warmed 🙂 I found it at ❣️ 😆.
Pon.
Good evening...
I didn't know about the brewery and the brand name either 😳
I can't stop visiting sake shops in the hope of encountering this kind of sake 🤣I felt the heated sake was delicious due to the season 🤣.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good evening...
I was just about to buy a one-cup dry sake after reading Pon-chan's post, when I came across this sake, so I was happy to find it.
Sake with strong bitterness and umami. However, as with dry sake, it does not leave a lingering aftertaste. It is hard to feel the sake smell because of the bitterness, and it is easier to feel the umami than water, but that too while it is in the mouth.
Whether or not it is easy to recommend to others, it is my favorite!

Sakura Face Special Junmai Sake Unrefined Nigori Sake
When drunk chilled, the slightly heavy sweetness of nigori sake is mixed with a lactic acidity that is unique to nigori sake.
Glamour comes on top with a light touch.
Bitterness of rice is a little harsh at first
Sweetness when played on the tongue
Tastes like finding light in a tunnel
