Iida Sake Brewery Gokurakukai Spring Session🌸
Participated in the tasting of 5 sake breweries. First up was Kagamiyama from Saitama 🍶.
Kagamiyama×Iida Sake Shop collaboration sake😆 Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama ✨Lemon🍋, Citric Acid, Greffle. It was a sour and refreshing sake.
It's a limited edition sake for overseas 🍶I heard they are serving it in Hong Kong. Daiginjo Nama Sake ✨Dense and umami. It also has a strong sweetness. I wonder if this kind of thing is popular in Hong Kong 🤔.
Omachi🌾Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake✨ Well balanced and pleasant to drink. You can also feel the bubbles.
Junmai Super Limited Shiboritate✨ Slightly refreshing, dry, acidic. It's probably the easiest to pair with a meal.

Tasting at the brewery.
Wine yeast brewed 🍷.
It looks rare so let's drink it 🍶.
The color is clear.
Smell is a rich sweet and sour aroma ☺️
Taste is a mixture of sweet and sour. Maybe apricot is close. The sweetness has a slight tartness to it. It's like a candy cane at a fair 😋.
Ginjo aroma is a rich fragrance with a hint of sweetness 😳
Slightly sticky sweetness is a modern sake that is not wine🍷like 🍶.
It's not the sake, but the alcohol content is low at 12 degrees, so even those who are not used to it can easily drink it 🤗.
Tasting at the brewery.
They were out of Junmai Daiginjo, so I couldn't taste it, so I decided to get Junmai Ginjo 😊.
The color is clear.
It does not seem to have any aroma.
Taste has rice flavor🌾, no sweetness. A little ALC feeling.
Little ginjo aroma.
It is a straightforward classic type of sake that is what is called light and dry 🍶.
Limited to 4 liquor stores in Saitama.
Fresh, high quality, and full of acidity, it tastes like white grapes.
It has a fresh, high quality, acidic, white grape-like taste with a refreshing richness from the white malted rice. The quality is as always superb.
Oh, man, I can drink it for the rest of my life.
Slightly but firmly pineapple aroma
Not as light as Huayangyan
but also has a certain weight
The more you drink, the more sweetness you can taste.
Anyway, the bottle is a beautiful blue color.
Lower alcohol content, gentle and soft on the palate.
Smooth and beautifully sweet flavor spreads in the mouth
and then turns into a rich, fresh flavor.
