The second cup was a Toyo cup.
Luckily this one was also sealed 😊.
This one is made with Yamadanishiki from the special A district that Miura Shuzo, the brewer of Toyo Grape, has a contract with.
But this year will be the last year for this sake 😭.
Everything is said that the sake rice can no longer be harvested year after year.
Now, the taste.
It was a very delicious sake with a moderate fruity taste.
It was a very, very delicious sake.
I was told that Yamadanishiki that is not from the special A district will probably be available in the future, but it was sad to hear that...
I was given a sake from Aomori and thought it might be dry, but it was soft on the palate and quenched my thirst without any cloying taste. It was fruity, and the more I drank, the softer it made me feel.
I'm very grateful to the sake store in Towada City for keeping the November 2024 draft sake in cold storage. It seems that this year's freshly pressed sake will be available soon, but I wasn't sure if I would be able to buy it, so I bought it on impulse. It has been a while since I have had freshly pressed sake, but it is as delicious as ever! The freshness and the aftertaste of the rice flavor that comes after the rush of the rice flavor make this a sake that you have to buy if you see it.
Congratulations on your 300 check-ins, Hinde 🎉🎉🎉!
Freshly squeezed at this time of the year is very precious. ❣️ It's also great that it's as fresh as ever 😳‼️
Thank you for your comment, Pon-chan, I would not have noticed the 300 check-in without your comment.
Toyobai's freshly pressed 2025 will be on sale soon, and I would be happy if I could buy it.
I wanted to try this sake.
It was delicious with a fresh aroma like green apple and a gentle taste.
I had it with hamo (Japanese pike conger).
Cheers to a good night!
I don't have a picture, but I was in Hirosaki on a business trip. I met a nice restaurant. And of course, when I went to Hirosaki, I had to go to Toyobai. There was a good brand just after the fall season. It was delicious.
The sweet sea bream was cheap so I tried it grilled with salt 🐟The accompaniment is here: 💁♂️
Let's start with the standing aroma. Fresh sourness and aroma like apple. When you put it in your mouth, it is characterized by a hint of sweetness and sourness. There is also a good umami and bitterness at the end.
Serve with sea bream. The taste of elegant, light white fish brings out the umami and sweetness of this sake and increases its deliciousness. Perfect for the fall season 😁.

Refreshing rice aroma.
Smooth and pleasant to drink, with a hint of rice sweetness.
The sweetness is there, but it disappears without a hitch at the finish, leaving you feeling refreshed.
This is the first sake that made me think sake was delicious.
It is still delicious.
