Snack] Miso-glazed pork
After visiting a sake brewery there, I had it bottled and purchased at the "December Appreciation Day" weigh-in corner. It has a pear-like aroma with a tangy yeast flavor and a slightly bitter aftertaste. It tastes just like it was freshly pumped.

After visiting the brewery, we had the sake bottled and purchased at the "December Appreciation Day" corner. The brewery uses cedar chips to fill the barrels, which gives the sake a strong cedar aroma and a hint of sweetness, just like you would taste in a square.

This is "Tamanboast Junmai Mucho" from Ishikawa Shuzo, Fussa City, Tokyo, one of the "Three Tokyo Sake Breweries Junmai Sake Set for Comparison" that we received as a gift.
It is a delicious sake with a full aroma and a delicious junmai flavor.
It's a quick and easy way to get through the day. Goshinshu. A little habitual. Easy to drink, but the habit is hidden. Country style. Old classic. 83 points

Freshly shiboritate kameguchi purchased at the Ishikawa Shuzo November Appreciation Day. The fruity, flowery aroma gently rises along with the zing of alcohol that is typical of freshly squeezed new sake.
Ohhhh 🥹.
This is delicious. Sweetness and acidity like cucumber and white grapes. The aftertaste is refreshing, yet lingering and makes you want to take another sip.
I had a chance to visit the brewery and bought a small bottle.
I was told that the sake is made with Tokyo water and rice,
What kind of rice is used for all brands? I wonder if it's all the same,
Basically, they use edible rice.
When I drank it, I felt a fruity sweetness at first,
As I drank it, I gradually felt a honey-like sweetness.
Tamanjutsu is a sake characterized by its sweetness,
This one gave the impression of a particularly strong sweetness.
I paired it with light-flavored oden, which was a nice touch.
It would also be good warmed up.
A bottle of Taman's pride. A bottle purchased at the monthly appreciation day. It is bottled to order. The sake is aged in cedar casks and then further flavored with cedar chips. The cedar gives the sake a peppery, spicy aroma when combined with the sake. I find the concept of barrel-aged sake very interesting, similar to the barrel aging of Western sake. And the best part is that it tastes great.
A cup of Taman proudly branded Tamaru sake. This bottle was purchased at Tamatebako, an antenna store in Haijima that collects good things from the Tama region. Despite the catchy label, it is a very tasty, royal road sake. It tastes like it could be enjoyed slightly warmed up.
