Abeno Harukas Kintetsu Main Store Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑯ The last stop was the Koshinotsuru booth, where I spent the longest time talking with the visitors. We joined in the promotion of the delicious and amazing sake to the visitors who came to the booth, and at the end, the brewer said thank you. I was taking pictures without thinking, but according to Mr. Bouken, there were some he didn't want me to post on SNS, so I voluntarily restricted myself from doing so. Fat Honjo It was delicious, with a gentle, mildly delicious taste at first and a clean aftertaste. Koshinotsuru (◯Koshinotsuru) The brewer said he would drink this sake in the end, and it is very tasty with a sense of sake but with a mild flavor. It is so cosy that if this one sells well, they can't sell the others. Koshinotsuru Tsuruhi Chishakusetsu Katsudo Nigori Sake It has a very high level of deliciousness. It is powdery, but has a nice sweet flavor. Koshinotsuru PREMIUM Junmai-shu Takane-nishiki, unfiltered It has a smooth and smooth taste, and is very tasty. Koshinotsuru Premium Junmai Ginjo Nakadori Gohyakumangoku A very well-balanced sweet/umami medium-bodied sake. All the flavors are well balanced. I was most impressed with this one.

I also drank a premium junmai daiginjo, a sake for the sake competition, and one that was polished to 21% and aged, all of which were delicious.

Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi. The reason why they are not allowed to upload on SNS is because they only serve Harukas and Sake no Jin, so they don't want local liquor stores to ask for them 😅.

Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO⑥ I knew I had to go to Koshi Meikozo based on Nemuchi's advance information. It was always crowded, so I flew there as soon as it was open😅. I drank Motomasa Junmai Ginjyo Kameguchi Directly filtered raw sake No picture because I bought it. I didn't write it down, but it's a raw sake. Nemuchi-san recommended it. It was sweet and fruity and delicious. Koshinotsuru PREMIUM Junmai Sake - Takane Nishiki Unfiltered It is said to be dry, but it was not as dry as I expected, but fruity. The floral and acidity are impressive. Koshinotsuru PREMIUM Junmai Ginjo Nakadori Gohyakumangoku Transparent taste, but sweetness is also present. Koshinotsuru Tsuruhi Chishaku Yuki Activated Nigori Sake They said it was left over for the Harukas event. They said it was out of gas, but it was slightly effervescent with a trace of sweetness and a strong rice flavor. Koshinotsuru Bessen Normal Sake The cost performance is very good. Easy to drink. It's a regular sake, but it tastes great even when drunk cold. I also drank some other sake, such as Fukuro-hozuri and 21% rice polishing ratio, but I will not go into details because I was told that it is not allowed to upload on SNS 😌.

All of the Koshinotsuru PREMIUMs were fresh like raw sake. I was surprised at how different it was from Yamashiroya. Yamashiroya seems to be limited to outside Niigata Prefecture. The guy at the brewery talked a lot 😁. He was like a comedian from Kanto!

common squid (Todarodes pacificus) It has a citrusy aroma. Soft mouthfeel, acidity, and a hint of sweetness. Fruity, but with a strong aroma of rice in the depths. It is good. It is delicious. Quite to my liking. We bought it at a liquor store in Niigata City. I went to the Niigata Sake-no-Taien (Sake Festival). While enjoying a bottle of Hi-iri Ichijozo Junmai at the Koshi Meijo booth, I asked about the special feature of this sake, which is that it is named "domaine ikazuchi" and is made from local rice. Nagaoka? I was surprised to hear that it is made with local rice. I have no good photos because they are blurry, so I'll add photos of the trip to and from Toki Messe. Note that typing in "Sake no Wani Ichibrew" will associate it with a liquor store.

This was another sake from Koshi Meizou, one of the breweries promoted by the Local Sake Defense Force, on the way back from the Niigata Sake Festival! I bought it without hesitation! It has a nice aroma and a sweetness that is typical of Koshi-tanrei. It has a nice sharpness, good taste, delicious, and highly recommended.

It had been a while since I had been to the Yuzawa Station Ponshukan, so I had a hard time deciding which one I wanted, but since it was a limited edition, I picked it up. It has a dry mouthfeel with a sweet taste of rice and a spicy aftertaste on the tongue.

Niigata is Nagaoka's sake party? The organizer of the event, who was not a sake drinker but a sake connoisseur, gathered all the local sake breweries in Nagaoka for the event. The number of sake breweries is the largest in Niigata, with 16 breweries, which seems to be second only to Kyoto City on the city level. Since I had given up trying to drink all of the sake from the beginning, and for some reason I also had to have a beer today, I went to the sake corner toward the end of the day while the conversation was still going on. There were at least 10 brands lined up. First of all, this was the first sake from Koshi Meizou. Takane-nishiki is rare. Although it is junmai (pure rice), it is fruity, especially when you put it in your mouth, and the fact that it is so crisp and refreshing makes it a tanrei!

Junmai Ginjo🍶. First time at Kappo Uosen, a famous restaurant that Kazuhiko Ota has visited several times✨. We chose the 13 local sake drinking set. Here is the first one. A little aged. But it is sharp and crisp. Paired with yellowtail sashimi, it rounds out the flavor. Kappo Uosen @Nagaoka 20240921

Honjozo 🍶 The 8th cup of Nagaoka Sake-no-jin is this one. It is gentle ☺️ and has no horns, so you can drink as much as you want. This might be the one for daily consumption. The venue is called an arena and is quite spacious. It's a good place to concentrate. Aole Nagaoka Arena @ Nagaoka 20240921

Premium Junmai 🍶 The 6th cup of Nagaoka Sake no Jin is here. Nice flavor and spiciness. Superior. It is as good as Tochio-age. I was taught to enjoy changing the taste of Tochioage, whether it be a dash of soy sauce or a sprinkle of shichimi (seven spices) 😆. Aole Nagaoka Arena @ Nagaoka 20240921
