Good evening! (^O^)
Banquet series? The last of the series is Yoemon.
Actually, there is no kanji character yoyo in yuhen.
So, although it is a synthesized coined word, I think it is a very good name.
When I first drank it at a restaurant called "Badalone" in Hanamaki, I was surprised that Iwate has sour sake.
It is said that it was not recognized in Iwate, but was recognized outside the prefecture and evaluated as "reimported".
According to Mr. Murai, the owner of Kibune, it was originally a family-run business, but there were people who got sick or injured, and it became a serious problem!
He had been bottling by hand, but bought a small bottling machine.
Then, the number of bottles drastically increased from 300 to 1,500 per day.
Not only that, but it seems that the fermentation process had been advanced during the hand-pumping process, causing that sourness to appear, and when the bottling process was changed to machine bottling, the taste became clear and clean.
The machine-packing process changed the taste to clear and clean, and suddenly there were more repeat customers, mainly young people, and for the first time the stock in the refrigerator ran out.
This time, I chose a brand that had been aged in the brewery, hoping for a taste of the old days.
It has a light yellowish hue.
It has a slightly thicker texture, as is typical of old sake, but it is easy to drink and has no peculiarities at all.
The acidity, typical of Toruyoemon, is not so noticeable.
It was delicious!
Good evening, Tomoyuki Kumagai.
Yoemon is my image of raw, ripe, ramen incense.
I have been to Padalone quite a while ago, but I am surprised that it seems to be a very popular restaurant now 😲.
Good evening, Kab! (^O^)
I was invited by my eldest son and his wife to go there before Corona, and it was the most enjoyable restaurant with really heartwarming hospitality and delicious food & drinks.
I want to go there again! (lol).
Good morning, Eirin-san! (≧▽≦)
It is an old sake that tastes good when it is cold, but it may change dramatically when the temperature is raised.
I will try it after today.
Please try it! (Translated by.

Today it is Toru Yoemon. It is a sake from Iwate.
I was curious about this sake brewery because I read about it in dancyu.
I went to have dinner at a restaurant and found Toru Yoemon there.
I had no idea that I would find Junmai Namaisake!
I had to try it!
The aroma is like whiskey.
The color is a light amber.
I heard that it actually had a little more fizz, but it had been a while since the bottle was opened, so I couldn't really taste it.
It was served cold, and the taste was sweet like raisins and brown sugar, with a sharp acidity. It has a bitter aftertaste with a freshness that makes it very drinkable, yet refreshing.
In my mind, this sake has the taste of old Awamori sake!
It is a unique taste that I have never had with sake before, but it reminded me of a delicious old Awamori Zuisen that I drank a long time ago.
This is the first time to visit this brewery. It is Toruyoemon Junmai Unfiltered Nama-shu. It has a delicious acidity. It is a delicious sake with a fresh, crisp taste and good acidity 😋🍶🎶.
Good evening, Oyaji! (^○^)
This brewery was said to be a heretic in Iwate Prefecture, which is known for its sweet sake.
The sake brewery's acidic sake was not accepted, but on the contrary, it became popular outside the prefecture and was "reimported" into Iwate (lol).
The people of Iwate Prefecture are so conservative that they only approved of sweet sake.
Don't make sour sake! Some people even shouted at them, "Don't make sour sake!
I can only laugh...(^_^;)
The taste reminds me of my old relative's house with the waterwheel and thatched roof.
The taste of the old days.
A nostalgic dry taste that has me playing around the hearth while the adults are drinking sake.
What is it?
Is it because of Rikuu No. 132 or Association No. 7?
Is it because of the synergistic effect of the two together?
As I savor the crisp, dry sake that seems to go well with any dish, I think of my grandfather and grandmother who took good care of me.
Well, I know it is not like that.
First stocking in the New Year. Although it is described as "super dry," it goes down the throat refreshingly clear in the mouth. The aroma is not too assertive, which I like.

I become a fan!
