Received two bottles of Tosa Shiragiku's top-selling wine with the Furusato tax payment.
Unusually for a Kochi sake, it is a mellow sake with a strong umami flavor and a pleasantly sweet taste, just as the label says. It reminded me somewhat of sake from Ishikawa.
The Tosa sake with a light dry taste is good, but the sake with a strong flavor that makes you want to drink it goes well with fish.
Today, it is served cold. I would like to try it at room temperature or heated.
Shiragiku is a quintessential Shiragiku, and this one is delicious!
On Saturday, I attended a big banquet called the "Sake Club", hosted by the Sake Club ✨.
In addition to the registration fee, each participant was required to bring a bottle of one of the following: ginjo, daiginjo, junmai ginjo, or junmai daiginjo 😊.
The number of participants, according to the organizer, was 330 people 😳Naturally, there were more than 330 bottles of sake brought in, so about 10% of the sake was covered 😶.
Anyway, I drank all the sake at the table I was assigned to 😅I could only take pictures of the table 😅.
First of all, Shiragiku-san: ☝️
This sake is a summer sake, not light and dry, but light and umami, smooth and easy to drink, and it goes down easy 😊.
It's delicious ✨✨✨.
Good evening, Kano!
What an awesome party 😲.
I bet you drank a lot 😁✨✨.
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of sakes will be served 🎵

ma-ki-, good evening😊It's quite an interesting party, you can drink a lot of different kinds of alcohol ✨That means there were 330 bottles of four-packs of alcohol 😊Don't you think that's a lot to drink?
Jay & Nobby, good evening ✨Every year we have about 300 participants ☝️ organizers tell us to do our best to drink all kinds of drinks, but we have never achieved it ✨It's impossible... 😅I'd love to drink 😊.
Sweet and mild aroma 😌
Rice flavor and a hint of acidity 👍️
Light and refreshing taste 😋.
Light bitterness at the end 🎵.
The finish is also crisp and "cutting"⚔️
Sake that the liquor store owner brought out from the refrigerator in the back.
I didn't look carefully, so I drank it in the last gulp or so.
What is it? Nigori? I didn't know it was nigori and drank almost all of it 🤣🤣🤣
I've been busy with a lot of things today, so we're going out for dinner ✨.
We came to our favorite sushi restaurant 😄
I ordered some sashimi and nigiri, and when I tried to order sake... the owner told me that this was the only sake left 😅.
Well, it's a good thing I ordered this sake because it's delicious too 😄.
But it's a good thing that it's the sake of the season, right?
It has a freshness like a fresh sake, a fruity taste, and a dry and crisp taste... this is delicious 😆.
After all that, we had a nice, leisurely meal and I was happy 😁.
Hi Kano!
Sushi and Sake is my favorite pairing 🍣🍶 and I was talking with my wife about how much I wanted to eat sushi, so I was jealous 🤤.
Too bad we couldn't choose the sake, but it's nice to have a familiar place where we can relax 😊.
Clear in color.
Smell of isoamyl acetate. Banana. Some etherealness. Pineapple-like.
Soft sweetness and a hint of acidity. Dry but with volume. It's nice and chunky!
Warm it up.
It becomes a more relaxed sake. It's just like a chunky sake. It's a genmai sake that warms you from the bottom of your heart. It makes you feel like you can be kinder to others. It will make you a better person than you are now. It is such a sake.
Kochi sake has a deep pocket.
