I bought this cup of sake when I bought Shinshu the other day. The concept seems to be to serve it with ramen, but I bought some fried chicken because Daiichi Shuzo told me that it also goes well with oily food like Machichuuka.
I heard it has acidity, and it certainly does, but it's spicy. The spicier the better. But it is delicious!
The fat from the fried food flows off nicely.
This is good, I'll buy it again.
"Sanomaru Cup"
Thin and clean texture. Flavor is forward and crisp, with notes of raspberry, cucumber, bubblegum, and almond paste. Finish is fast and clean.
Nihon Meimon Sake Hanpukai
Served at room temperature as recommended by the brewer (about 22)
The aroma is faintly grapey.
The grape aroma opens up on the palate.
It has a moderate acidity, is not sticky, and has a lingering sweetness and grape aroma in the mouth.
I drank it last night, chilling it in the fridge. So I looked at the flyer and found that the recommendation was room temperature. ❗️

We had a little time before the event started, so we went to Sushi Katei to warm up,
I went to Sushi Katei for warming up.
We compared the sake of Kaika, which was the first time it had opened at the store.
Spring-colored nigori sake.
A lovely color - very spring-like.
It tastes like sweet and sour cherries.
Delicious.
This Sake is clean and has a little dryness. Hints of wood flavor makes this very enjoyable with food. This brewery has been in existence for over 350 years! Another good Sake from Tochigi!
Good morning Saru808🐒😊Kaika Junmai sake is my favorite local sake 🤗It's great as a food sake 👍I can buy it anytime at the supermarket so I always have it on hand 😊.
Declaration of Flowering
Spring Sake. Opened now.
It's a long time since I've had a hit.
Fruity, acidity, deep flavor.
I couldn't help but think "Ginjo⁉".
The naming...
It's a bit clichéd, but...
But I like the combination of the words.
I went to the brewery in early spring

To everyone at Sake-no-Wa

I have been busy with work since the end of the year.
Still far from New Year's break 😵😵.
I have to work 3 more days before I can have a vacation 😵💫💦.
I decided to open a bottle of something for now.
After all, this is Tochigi Ai💞.
Almost all local sake
I decided to have a bottle of Kaika's active nigori sake❣️.
When Danna stopped by Yamaya at the end of the day, the salesman from Daiichi Sake Brewery was selling the sake in the store.
A sales person from Daiichi Sake Brewery was selling it in the store.
I asked him, "Do you have any nigori sake?"
I asked him.
He said, "Yes, we have it at the brewery.
So I got his business card and went straight to the brewery 🚙💨.
There was this active nigori and a low-alcoholic light pink nigori.
Now it's time to open the bottle ✨🥂✨.
The bottle opened without a hitch, probably due to the fact that it was chilled to a crisp.
We started with the supernatant.
After the sweet taste, the sourness rushes in at once and the bitterness refreshes ❣️.
The bitterness refreshes the palate.
After mixing the cage (it took me a long time to do it manually)
Aroma of lactic acidity
Tingling and sizzling in the dark sweet acidity🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧.
Bitter and refreshing❣️.
Went well with hot pot😋♪
By the way, if you drink it with calpis soda, it's amazing 🤣.
Tsubu-chan Happy New Year 🎍.
I wish you a happy new year as well 🐰
I follow Kaika's instagram and I was jealous of your business trip to Yamaya 😁Kaika and nigori is definitely the one 😋.
Happy New Year 🎍🎍Good job - I guess it will be a little while before I get into the New Year mood 🥺Nice start to the year with a local drink👍✨Looks very delicious❣️Good luck in the new year 😊.
Tsubu.
Happy New Year 🎍🐇🎍.
I feel your Tochigi love 🫶 with Tochigi sake as the first drink of the new year 🤗.
I wonder if it's not a punchline that it tastes like Senkou's snowman☃️ if you mix it with calpis soda 🤭.
Tsubu-chan Happy New Year 🎍 and all the best for the new year 🤗.

100% Hitogochi grown by brewers in their own rice paddies.
Sake brewed with 80% low-polishing rice.
Aroma of acidity.
The tangy sourness and bitterness that comes with a thump.
A strong alcohol taste that lingers on the tongue.
Heat lingers in the back of the throat.
When heated, it has a deep flavor, yet it feels smooth.
Lactic sweetness and umami.
Very easy to drink.
Personally, I prefer it warmed up.
Production date: May 2021
Date of closure: October 30, 2021
