The other day I received a bottle of Chiba Kujukuri local sake🍶.
The fresh and fluffy aroma heightens my expectations!
The recommendation is to drink it hot or lukewarm, but since it was hot, I opted for cold sake (lol).
The taste is refreshing, just like the aroma, and the slightly dry taste of the middle part of the sake spreads all the way through without losing its sharpness.
We enjoyed it with snacks as a mealtime sake.
Since it was only served on a weekday, I was planning to keep it for the next day, but it went down so smoothly that I ended up drinking it all up.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby.
Yes, it's true! I'm glad to have an unknown taste from an encounter with an unfamiliar sake, and local sake is a high point ✨.

Delicious. Sweet aroma of grape type + yogurt. Numb but soft on the tongue. The flavor is strong, yet not cloying.
Purchased at Mikiya, a direct sales store near Umeichirin Sake Brewery.
They sell Ume-Ichirin sake, sake cups, and other goods, but they also sell boxed lunches and other items, just like a convenience store. I bought this one, which had a pop-up sign saying it was the most popular.
I found out about this place at a bar in Matsumoto the other day, and since it is a sake brewery in Kujukuri, I went there since it was the GW season and Kangiku was close by. The back of Cheeba-kun's head.
Umeichirin Sake Brewery is doing quite well for a local sake and is expanding nationwide. I heard from another nearby sake brewery (Moriya Sake Brewery) that they are expanding their business nationwide.

Is this new to you too?
I think it's about the same as how to put on a top-heat to hot-ish?
No peculiarities, just a nice, clean warmed sake.
This is delicious.
It's a little lackluster, so it's suitable for a clear warmed sake.
I thought it would be better for a clear warmed sake, but as the temperature drops, it starts to have a slightly tangy, dry feel to it.
