We were served a local sake from Hamamatsu.
It is made by the local Hamamatsu sake brewery and is famous for being the only female toji in the prefecture.
The castle is Hamamatsu Castle.
This one is made from the first original rice for sake brewing in Shizuoka Prefecture, "Honorifuji".
It is a mutant of Yamada-Nishiki, but it is difficult to say whether it is Yamada-Nishiki-like.
I had heard that it produces a full flavor and taste, but this sake is a bit pale and dry.
Since I had drunk a low-alcohol sake just before, I could feel more sake-like characteristics.

The top of the line. Full-bodied, tasty and heavily mellow. Sweetness and spiciness in the aftertaste. The sweetness comes back again when you roll it on your tongue. Because it is a very rich sake, it is better to be served with simmered dishes than sashimi.
Polished rice 70%.
When I was on a business trip, I bought this sake because I didn't know how to make it and it looked interesting. It is yellow in color.
It has a strong 🍋 aroma. You can feel the fluffy aroma.
It has a round attack. The aftertaste is long and changes to an alcohol feeling. It's quite interesting. It has an elusive taste.
Even if you keep rolling it around in your mouth, the taste keeps changing. At the end, you can feel the sourness. I think it's a good sake😋.
It's been rainy and cool lately...but when it's hot I buy fizzy stuff.
but not all of them are refreshing sudsy 😬.
This is a noble sake type fizzy nigori that uses sake in the brewing process.
I'd be careful opening the bottle, but it doesn't blow up and it's not as gassy as it sounds.
Aroma like caramel. Mellow banana, pineapple, a little cucumber and sweet honey.
Sweet!!!!!! 😱(Speedwagon style)
I've never had a kijoshu before, but
But is it really this sweet?
Is it sweet like this?
I like the type of sake for eating, so...
Unfortunately, it's not going anywhere at all 😰
I thought I'd like to buy some more sake from Hamamatsu.
so I dropped by Aeon and bought some.
It's the only brewery in Shizuoka with a female toji.
This is the only brewery in Shizuoka with a female toji.
The sake is made from Shizuoka Honefuji.
It's a summer only sake. The color is quite yellow.
The aroma is not strong. If anything, it has a nutty aroma.
It is sweet but crisp.
I think the alcohol punch is stronger than the sweetness.
We visited a hot spring in Izu and had it with a meal.
When I put it cold in my mouth, I thought it was a bit hard. However, when I paired it with fish and other dishes, it was surprisingly refreshing and enhanced the flavor. As it gradually approaches room temperature, it becomes even more mellow and easy to drink. I went back to my room and went into the onsen, thinking that this would be a great sake to heat up, and when it was lukewarm, it had a sweet, fragrant, nutty aroma, and the flavor rose quickly. It was tasty and comfortable.
The first bite is easy to get into. I thought it didn't have any impact, but by the second sip, I could feel the sweetness in my mouth.
It would be delicious chilled.
Let's work hard for our working life from tomorrow🤘🤘🤘
And when I drink some more, I feel it even more!
This sake is so sweet!
It's like a dessert sake!
