The sake is said to be brewed with local rice and famous water.
The sweetness of the rice can be felt even when served chilled. May be a little heavy in hot weather.
Sake won at Hiya Garden by Daiichi Sake Brewery. This sake was served on the day of the event. It has a fruity aroma and a sweetness that you can tell comes from the rice. I guess you could call it the unique sweetness of Kaika.
We had a late lunch today, so we had a late dinner.
I drank all the sake I had, but I thought I'd like to drink some more.
In such a case, this is the one!
So, this is the first brewery we're having tonight. Kaika by Daiichi Shuzo!
This time, it's NOODLE SAKE - Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter -!
After reading Tochigi Ai Dentist's post, I decided to have a one-cup of Tochigi sake today.
So, let's have it right away!
First, the aroma. It seems to have a refreshing aroma?
When you put it in your mouth, the fresh sweetness to the cleanness of the mouthfeel stands out!
It is very refreshing with a slight spiciness.
You can also taste the umami.
The lingering aftertaste is also slightly bitter and well-balanced, making the sake very easy to drink.
It was a good sake time today too!
Good evening, ma-ki-san ^_^
Some kind of sake that I have to drink ✨
I wonder if there is ramen soup or broth in the sake 🤣.
Please put your own love of ramen on the Tochigi love evangelist 😊.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃Kaika, I'm new to you, but I'm kind of curious about the packaging of your one-cups 😆 It tickles my fancy as a one-cup collector ❤️
Hi ma-ki-😃
Interesting one-cup cup! I've never seen it before 😆I'd like to collect them👍Tochigi has a lot of different kinds of sake ❣️ I hope they release a one-cup supervised by Tochigi love evangelist 🤣.
Good morning, ma-ki-🌞This is another glossy one-cup. ✨️I've been trying to find one-cups because of ma-ki-'s influence, but I can't seem to find a good one 😅.
Thanks for your comment, Wakata!
It was my first time to try Kaika too, but the packaging caught my attention 😁✨.
Oh my, you've sparked my collector's spirit 🎵.
Please add it to your collection if you get a chance 😋.
Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama!
It's fun to see all the different kinds of one-cup drinks 🎵.
There are also a lot of different kinds of sake from Tochigi prefecture ⤴️ I still have a lot of things I want to drink 😋.
Preacher supervision - sounds like fun 😊.
Thanks for the comment Nao888!
It's an interesting looking one-cup 🎵
Nao888 you also said you care about small amounts of alcohol 😁✨.
Let us know if you find a good one 😊.
Hi ma-ki-😃
I'll drink it! I'm going to drink Tochigi sake from ‼️ 😅Congratulations on your first one-cup Kaikka from ㊗️ 🎉!
I think I'll team up with Manta and start up a 🍜+🍶 collaboration project 😆.
Thank you for your comment, Hiro!
It's an interesting pattern that you can recognize as ramen at a glance 🎵.
The one-cup cups have a cute form and look great when lined up in a row ✨.
Yes, it's true. It's a junmai ginjo, after all 😋.
Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments!
You are still in Jin mode 😁✨✨.
The collaboration project between Manta-san and Preacher-sama sounds like fun 🎵!
Tochigi Prefecture is also full of delicious sake 😋.
Hi ma-ki-🐦.
This is cute ❣️ I would buy it if I saw it 😁.
It looks like a collaboration project between a sake brewery in Sano and ramen girls! It really seems to go well with ramen, I'll try it when I find it 🍜🍶...
Thanks for your comment, Pon!
I saw it at the liquor store and got it as soon as I could 😁✨✨.
I see 😲It's such a great collaboration and goes well with ramen too ⤴️
I'll try it with ramen next time 😋.
The last one is Kaikka on the far right!
I kind of chose it on a hunch, but it was very tasty 😊.
I think it might have been the best among the three 😄.
I was very satisfied with Utsunomiya and had a lot of gyoza (dumplings)!
