A sake that is easy to drink. It has a refreshing taste of rice, and is suitable for a mealtime drink.

At the traveling SAKE in Hankyu Department Store. It is made from Yumesasara. The sake is fresh like a fresh sake. It is delicious with a fruity sweetness that is not too sweet.

Buy at Asahikawa Marushin Shoten The rice used is Yumesasara from Tochigi prefecture. It is a low alcohol type, but it has a moderate sweetness, and as expected from an unpasteurized sake, it has a crisp taste. The acidity is also a bit like white wine, so it can be used with western food. It is an all-round food sake. It is the first time to drink Sawahime, so it is difficult to evaluate only this one, but it is an interesting brewery!

One of the Tochigi's drinking comparison. It has a very good sweetness and richness characteristic of honjozo, and is my favorite type of sake.

During a recent tour of Tochigi sake breweries, my husband, who was in charge of tasting, raved about Inoue Seikichi Shoten's Sawahime. It is indeed delicious. With wasabi cream cheese!

Tochigi Ai🥰 in the first of December You can buy Sawahime in the neighborhood, but this one was limited to 120 bottles at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival, so I tasted it and bought it! It's very effervescent. It's dry, complex, and has many different flavors. It is sweet but unique. Rich and powerful sake. I think there's a very slight glimpse of a perverted sake 🫶.

Good evening, bouken 😃. Thank you for your early Tochigi love 🥰 from November rush to early December 😊. I guess you can tell that because you drink a lot of Sawahime 😁.

Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀. I'm afraid of the strong gas so it was an early Tochigi love 🥰😅. It was a little sharper than the other Sawahime 😁.

The 23rd Hankyu Brewery Festival (3) Sawahime-san, who has become a familiar face at the Sake Brewer's Festival The president of Sawahime-san was there! We drank Daiginjo Shin Jizake Manifesto Brilliant and fruity. I've had it before, but it's still delicious! Special Junmai Shiboritate Nama-nihonshu This is a sake I missed out on last year at Icoma. Personally, I think it's a little subtle because it's refreshing and has little sweetness. I heard that Icosa will have it in stock again this year, so I'm considering drinking it again to make sure 🤔. Sawahime Junmai Daiginjo I felt it was sweeter than the Daiginjo. I've had Jun Dai and Daiginjo in the past, but I thought it was consistently delicious! Here we purchased a Junmai Ginjo Premium Slightly Sparkling Oragami Nama Sake, which is a test brew and limited to 120 bottles! I wanted to buy some other sake, so I left the brewery festival this time 😅.

I went to Nikko today 🍁. We hiked and bought this as a souvenir ✨. I usually go to sake shops and buy sake rather than souvenir shops at tourist spots, but there were so many handwritten notes on the sake at the souvenir shop that I wanted to buy all the sake on display as I read them 🤭 lol Only one of them didn't have a note lol. Sawahime no Hiyoroshi ‼️ Just "hiyaoroshi" on the label is enough for me 🥰. Unlike its appearance, it's refreshingly dry and easy to drink 🍶. It's calm and delicious with a hint of umami 😋.
