I came to Kamakura to visit a grave. After struggling to weed the graves, we visited MOKICHI, which is run by the Kumazawa Sake Brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture.
We compared three kinds of sake. The price was 1,300 yen for a rather large amount of sake!
The doburoku has a slightly sour taste and is not too sweet.
My daughter, who likes sweet, sweet sake-like doburoku, said it was a little different, but she gulped it down.
Hi mariage 😃
Thank you for weeding the graves 😌 your ancestors must be very happy 😊.
And the glass sure looks like it holds a lot! I like the idea of "gokkun gokkun" with it!
The Margherita 🍕 also looks delicious 😋!
Hi Jay & Nobby 😆 This place had a nice high ceiling. I ate a sandwich at a different restaurant before going here, so I could only eat half a pizza 😅but still...I prefer beer 🍺 with my pizza.
I found this at MOKICHI, which is run by the Kumazawa Sake Brewery.
Senbou Tensei...a little bitter for me, so I can't drink it.
Ginmochi Tensei...a little tatami? It tastes a bit like whiskey. It might be difficult for me if I don't know how to drink it.
Kappa no Doburoku...rice and yogurt flavored, the easiest to drink
Comparison of 3 drinks!
The pizza was delicious!
Yamada-Nishiki 50% polished rice. Dry but rich with a strong sweetness of rice. Although I live in Kanagawa Prefecture, I had a feeling that I don't like sake from the prefecture... but I think I like Tensei!
Tensei no Ginmochi was drunk at the Odawara Kamaboko Dori Vitalization Council's "Autumn Sake Ajiwai Tour - Junmai Sake from 13 Sake Breweries". It is a solid junmai sake. It goes well with salted fish as a snack.
And the salted fish is superb. The hospitality of the restaurant is also of the highest quality.
Mellow, dry, mellow sake
Beautiful light green cloudy sake
Relatively light on the tongue.
At first, a greenish fruity aroma like green apples and melons wafts through the nose.
The light sweetness is well balanced with a refreshing acidity.
100% Gohyakumangoku, 60% polished rice
Sake degree +3.5, Acidity 1.9, Amino acidity 1.8
Although it is rich and dry in terms of specifications, it has a sweet taste due to the amino acidity.
The fruity aroma of green apples comes through to the nose, as it is made with Association Yeast No. 701, and the sweetness and acidity are immediately perfectly balanced and delicious~!
The autumn ogara-mi of Tensei has a rather sharp aftertaste. The lees swells in the mouth and gives a delicious flavor.
