National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2㊹
Chiba ①
Kubota Sake Brewery in Noda City
Noda is associated with Kikkoman
Katsushika = Katsushika?
The brewery's staff was there.
According to online information, the brewery's toji is in his early 30s, so I think he was probably the one who came.
He said that the sake is not sold outside of the prefecture and is not well distributed even within Chiba Prefecture.
Not only sake, but mirin (sweet sake with sweet sake flavor) is also famous.
Polishing ratio 60%, domestic rice, 15.5 degrees, Sake degree +3, 1210 yen
It is a classic sake, but has a moderate sweetness. It's the type of sake that should be drunk at room temperature or warmed up. As other reviewers wrote, it tastes like mirin (sweet cooking rice wine) for some reason.
It's a little peculiar, but it's delicious!
We were talking about how our brewery is located far away from the other breweries, and when we looked at the map of sake breweries posted around us, it was clear that we are in the same area as the other breweries, and that we are not in the same place as the others.
Takara Shuzo Matsudo Factory
Godo Shusei Tokyo Factory
Nagareyama Kikkoman
Nikka Whiskey Kashiwa Factory
was on the list.
Nagareyama Kikkoman manufactures Hokusai, a sake for cooking, and Nikka Whiskey Kashiwa factory manufactures Ichibanfuda, a shochu liqueur.

Hi bouken 😃.
Noda is J&N's hometown 🥹, but I've never had a drink from Noda 😅.
I moved to Noda when I was in elementary school and I remember being surprised by the smell of soy sauce wafting in the air at first 😆.

Hello Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀.
What a surprise that you are from Noda😊.
I didn't know there was a sake brewery in Noda😅.
There used to be a Meiji margarine factory in my neighborhood and it had a unique smell 😁.
