It is said to be brewed with strawberry yeast, but I don't really taste or taste it that much.
Nevertheless, the interesting thing is that when you drink it, you are pulled in by its words and label.

I get a thin taste of strawberry flavor, but the rest of the flavor is artificial. To be honest, this is not good.
It's a KURAND original, but I don't think I'll buy this kind of thing again.
Opened October 25, 2024
Purchased at Kinugawa Onsen souvenir shop
At first, fluffy, gentle aroma of fermentation, like ripe fruit, flabby ^ ^.
The sweetness of the rice and the slight sourness of the fermentation...
At the end, a slight bitterness accents the taste! I can't get enough of it ^ ^ ^
It's pretty good 😋.

Tochikane love again 🤗💕.
Tochikane is a brewery that we were allowed to sample a lot at the previous traveling SAKE.
◉Tochiakane strawberry yeast brewed RED
It was slightly sweet and easy to drink, but I thought it was a bit sharp and strong, so I looked at the label on the back and saw that it was 18% alcohol by volume.
◉Tochi Akane Abelia yeast brewed
The sweetness and acidity are impressive. The sweetness and acidity are impressive.

The acidity is very clean and sweet, with a rather refreshing aftertaste.
◉Kuramoto-brewed amazake
The first taste is smooth, creamy and refreshing, but the sweetness spreads quickly afterwards.

Tochikane, which I first learned about at last year's traveling SAKE
I drank
Tochikane strawberry yeast brewed RED
I have tasted Tochikane's strawberry yeast brewed sake in the past, but this one has a light red color.
I didn't check if they use peach yeast or red rice, so I'm not sure 😅It's a very strong drink with a sharp taste that makes you feel like you're drinking it hard!
The brewer said he recommends drinking it on the rocks.
Tochikane Daiginjo with Abelia yeast
I drank this one when I was at Hanshin Department Store, but it has a more relaxed atmosphere than the original.
Goyotei Junmai Ginjo
It was delicious, with a clean yet mellow flavor.
Kuramoto-brewed amazake
Easy to drink, but not very impressive. I felt it was just ordinary amazake.
I was also interested in Sansho and coffee shochu, but there is no end to it.
At a sake fair.
I was expecting a huge amount of strawberries, but it was surprisingly not strawberry!
It's not a fruit sake, but a sake, and it's delicious!
Event.
I stopped by the "Toast Festa 2024 with Toast with Tochigi Local Sake" held at Orion Hall in Utsunomiya. It was already very crowded when I arrived at 16:00 on Saturday 😆.
I started with a sake I had never had before 😁.
The color is pale yellow 🟡.
Smell is slightly sweet.
The taste is strawberry🍓feeling and clean sweet like banana🍌.
The sweetness slowly takes effect in the aftertaste.
The sweetness is unique and interesting 🍶.
Hi Hiro, good evening😄.
I see you were at the Toast Festa: ❣️
I was having a drink with members of the Tochigi Prefectural Citizens' Association too 😆.
We were all talking about it! I was wondering if any of you are doing sakewa! You are here 😆♪
Hi Tsubu-chan, ☀️
I knew about it from a post on sakéwa and dropped by myself, so I knew there would be someone there 😄.
Great sake event in a well-organized venue and great sake friends ❗️
Tochigi is a great place, I envy you😊.
Nanoha, good evening 🌙
That was a no-brainer 😄
I knew the venue with a roof would be comfortable😊.
The atmosphere was great, so you can drink without any worries 🤗
I hope to see you again 😆.
Monthly Tochigi love 🥰 ongoing
Since I bought it at the traveling SAKE shop in the Hankyu Department Store last year.
This time at Hanshin Department Store.
The last time I bought it, it was hi-ire, but this time it was a nama sake. I think the hi-ire sake has a stronger strawberry flavor, but I think I can taste more sweetness in the nama sake.
I hope they will come to Kansai again because they have a variety of flower yeast sake.
Next time I want to buy Daiginjo Oshiroibana or Abelia that impressed me so much when I tasted it!
After 3 days from opening, it seems to have more strawberry taste.
After a few more days, it seems to have a stronger pungency...
Good morning, bouken 😃.
Love Tochigi monthly 🥰It's wonderful 🥹.
We haven't been able to drink Tochikane yet! I will definitely drink this one by the end of this term 🤗I think I'll go to the brewery!

Tochigi Ai🥰 at the tasting
I didn't bring any draft sake to last year's traveling SAKE, but this time I brought 4 different types of draft sake 😳.
The ones we drank were
Junmai Ginjo Ichigo Yeast Shiboritate Nama Nama Sake
Made with Nasuhikari. I bought a hi-ire version of this last year, but I have the impression that the hi-ire version had a stronger sweetness.
Daiginjo-nama sake brewed with oshiroibana yeast
The rice is Gohyakumangoku. It is very gorgeous, sweet and juicy, delicious and my favorite, but I was hesitant to try it.
Daiginjo-nama-genshu brewed with abelia yeast
The rice is Yumesasara. It was also my favorite, but I gave it up because it was too expensive 😢.
Junmai Ginjyo Yumesasara Kozake 3 years old raw
It was aged at low temperature, but it was quite matured....
The 8 year old Ichinokura that we had at Icoma Sake Shop was more beautifully aged and tasted better.
I found it a little spicy, but I bought the most reasonably priced raw sake with the 🍓 yeast.
Hi bouken 😃
Senkou and Hakuso sake brewery were on teletext a while ago, and the prefectural residents' group line was a lot of fun 😁 but I haven't had Tochikane yet 😅I have to drink it soon 😆 Thank you for always loving Tochigi 🥰....
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😃.
Maybe a local bus 🚌 trip?
I'm sure I watch a lot of Teletext but I missed it 😭
Tochikane, they have a lot of flower yeast sake, my personal favorite 😋.
Good evening, Shinjo-san 😃
I see you also watched the broadcast 📺.
It was a mystery to me that the Ichinokura that had been aged for 8 years at the liquor store was less matured and tasted more beautiful than this one that had been aged for 3 years at the brewery 🤔.
