Sake Kai [25 years tokkuri x ogawa].
We drank a variety of local sake, but here is a representative. This is Kitanonishiki Hempei from the Kobayashi Sake Brewery in Kuriyama-cho. This sake is made from locally grown sake rice "Kitashizuku" and polished flat. It is a crisp sake with less sweetness and more of a clean taste. In my opinion, however, I would like to compare Hokkaido's sake with hot sake.
Sake from the Japan-Ham collaboration. The title is written by former manager Kuriyama. The sake brewery is located in Kuriyama-cho. We were planning to celebrate the victory of Japan's No.1 team, but our wish did not come true.
The taste is not too strong. It tastes like junmai sake with little ginjo flavor.

I just thought...
I bought it because it was Kita-no-Nishiki...

Usually
I usually enjoy it cold in the fridge.
This time
It is displayed at room temperature in the store.
so
I had it cold as it was.
So...
The flavor, spiciness, and acidity are just right!
Beefsteak radish, steamed egg custard...
Once again
I met a delicious food wine!
We received Kitano-Nishiki, a Hokkaido Kobayashi Shuzo brewery limited edition. I unusually chose a slightly sweet flavor.
Since I usually prefer dry sake, I usually have sashimi with my entrée, but I was told that it goes well with Western-style food, so I had it with stewed young chicken with tomatoes.
It had an elegant, mellow flavor that went well with the dish!
I bought a bottle of seasonal sake - Autumn - at the Kobayashi Shuzo brewery in Kuriyama-cho, Hokkaido. It was slightly dry, refreshing, and very rich in flavor. It was a sake with the taste of autumn!
Sapporo souvenir 🤗.
The aroma is mild, light and slightly spicy, reminiscent of young melon and apple. It is light, but after swallowing it down with a gulp, the richness and bitterness gradually spreads 😚.
The third one is thick shrimp tsukemen topped with boiled egg. The whole wheat flat noodles are firm. When you slurp the noodles, you can smell the yuzu (Japanese citrus fruit) softly mixed with the fragrance of the prawns 😋.
Junmai Daiginjo, a limited edition of the brewery!
I think I bought this brand when I visited the brewery before Corona.

The taste is a classical type with a soothing aroma and flavor.
Aged for a year for a reason, it has a smooth and smooth mouthfeel with few ups and downs, a spicy umami and an acidity that tightens it up, delicious!
