Purchased at Hankyu Department Store's Traveling SAKE.
The rice is Nasuhikari grown by the company, and the sake is freshly brewed.
It seems to have a strawberry flavor. It is not so sweet, but dry and has a nice sharpness, so it is good as a food sake.
If Amabuki's strawberry yeast is like thick strawberry, Tochikane is like dried strawberry.
If it is fire-brewed once, I would like it to be a little fresher.

Tochikane Daiginjo. Tochikane Daiginjo is made from Aizan and uses Abelia yeast. It is rare to use flower yeast in Aizan, isn't it?

Tochigo-Akane
Hana-Kobo
Aiyama🎵
Is it because of the use of floral yeast that it has a unique atmosphere while also being Aiyama-like?
I didn't take a picture of it, but I also drank a sweet potato shochu made with strawberry yeast. It had a strong sweetpotato taste and I wanted to drink it with soda.

This is the first time I learned about this brewery at this event.
It seems that Tochigi produces more shochu than sake.
It was delicious, with a unique and robust sweetness, but I was attracted by the strawberry yeast 😅.
Tochigi Prefecture: The booth of "Tochi-Akane, Tochi-Akane" by Hakuso Shuzo Co.
It looks like a small brewery, but it is the only brewery in Tochigi Prefecture that produces all types of shochu: potato shochu, barley shochu, and buckwheat shochu.
Tochikane Junmai Ginjo with strawberry yeast
Tochikane Junmai Ginjo Yumesasara
Tochikane Junmai Ginjo Strawberry Yeast Brewing" seemed to have a little strawberry flavor.
This time, I thought that I personally like Yumesasara a lot.
It was my first time to drink shochu at the tasting, and I didn't even keep track of which brand it was, but this one was really good.
I heard that sake production is low and shochu production is higher.
bouken, good evening 🌛Yes I was right ❗I also drank shochu because of strawberry yeast 😊I bought strawberry yeast rather than dream sasara to master my love for flower yeast 🤣.
