Purchased directly from the brewery! First drink the top clear, the rice flavor and bitterness is very strong, shake it and drink it again, the flavor and bitterness is even stronger, I like it very much!
Junmai Ginjo, Kojun. It has a very strong umami flavor, but it is also a little too strong and tart for my liking. If you want to drink it, a single gou is enough.
It is clear with a dark yellowish hue, with aromas of soy sauce, cooked rice, honeysuckle, and Japanese pear. The attack is rather strong, with mild acidity, a mild sweetness, and a rather long finish.
Low-polished sake with a low milling rate 🍶.
A bottle with more than enough amino acid flavor ✨.
This is a bottle of the master brewer, Mr. Ishikawa's best 💕.
It tastes more like a ginjo than an aroma ginjo.
It has 19% alcohol by volume, but you won't feel it ✨😋.
The master brewer, Mr. Ishikawa, gave his best 🍶.
Oarai is filled with "Girls und Panzer" all over the place!
It's nice to have a character loved by the town!
Tsuki no I-san in Oarai has 4 kinds of this Girls und Panzer labels!
Like the Junmai and Honjozo, Tsuki no I has a slightly bitter taste!
However, this peculiarity is what makes Tsuki no I so delicious!
Although this dry sake has some peculiarities, it has a nice aroma that eventually escapes through the nose, and the aftertaste is clean and delicious!
Umami and dry sake
Purchased in advance when I heard it was going to be featured on NHK👍.
Opened the bottle before watching the program.
It looks dark yellow with a hint of brown.
The aroma is just like that of a pure rice sake. No ginjo aroma.
In the mouth, it has a full-bodied flavor with some bitterness and sharpness. The sweetness is on the dry side.
Classic food sake. 😋😋😋😋
Probably matured to some extent before shipping.
It tastes best when slightly heated 😋.
Watch the show, they brew it while singing....
Tatsuya Ishikawa, the toji, is a non-firing injection master.
The more I learned about the story, the more delicious it became 😆.
3,400 yen without tax
Today is a petit drinking iron.
I am energized for work starting tomorrow.
The sake is from Ibaraki, but we are drinking it in Fukushima!
Girls und Panzer was a set of 3 bottles, so this is the second one!
It's cold, so it's cold sake without refrigeration.
The refreshing taste of the honjozo sake makes it easy to drink in the morning, even if you don't have anything to eat!
Also, I feel the bitterness that is unique to Tsuki no I, which I also felt in the Junmai Ginjo.
The bitterness has a nice aftertaste.
Does it go well with the castle?
It has been a while since I checked in
We have been refraining from drinking alcohol for the sake of losing weight.
Therefore, it has been a long time since we have had a Sake and Tetsudo.
This kind of local collaboration products are good, aren't they?
The brewery seems to be rooted in the local area.
The taste is a little bitter and peculiar.
The taste is a little bitter and peculiar, but the combination of this peculiarity and the ingredients, such as the red bean paste, is just the right saltiness.
300ml of sake and one ekiben... We had a good time drinking and eating...
We had a good time.
Good evening, Nobu Nobu-san. I like...Ibaraki marriage...I envy you...as a food sake 🍶, Tsuki no ini is good...but is the limited express Hitachimas like this now...cool!
Good evening, brother.
I looked up the anime "Galpan" and found that it is set in Oarai and the local community is also supporting it.
The collaboration with Tsuki no I and the local food was the best luxury for me.
I highly recommend it!
Hello Nobu Nobu!
I see you are enjoying your long time drinking 😊The cute label of the sake is interesting because of the gap between the anglerfish and the sake 👍🎶.
Good evening, Mr. Pon-chan.
It's been a long time since I've been to Mito, and since anglerfish is very familiar to Mito residents, I felt there was no gap between the two.
Or rather, it was a gap 😅.
Tsuki no I's new sake that sets itself apart from others
Hitanishiki 65% polished rice, 20 degrees alcohol by volume, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake.
Aroma of koji and alcohol
The moment you drink it, your tongue complains of amino acids.
Super dry with a bitter taste and a sharp edge.
This clean and sharp taste is graceful!
It becomes mellow when it is heated up with added water.
The sense of graininess increases and it is delicious!
It is also good with yokan (bean jelly).
It is also good with lemon and soda.
The bitterness is pleasant.
I heard that Mr. Ishikawa drinks it hot as it is...
No, thanks.
Travel Record (Ibaraki Oarai-cho, Ibaraki)
Sweetness: 2
Umami: 3
Astringency: 1
Acidity: 1
Bitterness: 4
Fullness, body: 2
Flavor: mint, young leaves
Despite the nose-irritating brewer's alcohol aroma, the first touch is a delicious rice flavor.
The hint of mint in the nose is reminiscent of mint, with a sharpness that is typical of honjozo sake!
I really wanted to try authentic dobu-jiru, so I went to Oarai Town in Ibaraki Prefecture.
I drank a cold sake from the Tsukii Sake Brewery near the restaurant and found it to be a perfect match 😆.
It is fun to drink a wide variety of modern sake, but it is also interesting to enjoy local specialties with local sake!
I'd like to try this kind of enjoyment in other areas as well: ☺️
