Tochigi Ai🥰 in the first of August This one was also purchased at Ikoma Sake Shop. Sawahime was in stock, but I wanted something else and couldn't buy it all at once 😅 The first part is fruity and sweet. The second half is quite firm and dry. It is spicier than Yamahai and Tokubetsu Junmai, but the lingering ginjo aroma is pleasant! Sawa-hime has a wide range of flavors, which is very interesting. I paired it with melon and it was delicious. I think it tastes sweeter after a few days than freshly opened!

Good morning, bouken🌞. Does layaway mean you use the store as a refrigerator? Pick up whenever you want?

Good evening, Ms. Matsuchiyo. There are a lot of things I want but I can't buy them because of my fridge and 💸 so I had them keep a few for me 😊. I'll take them back early but I'll buy them whenever I want 😀.

Next up... Tochigi Prefecture's Local Sake "Sawahime" 🍶! My friend stopped by Chuzenji Lake and bought this for me! I thought Hitogokochi was a sake rice only grown in Nagano Prefecture, but it is also grown in Tochigi Prefecture 😮. It was a delicious, easy-drinking sake with the strength of Yamahai and the riceiness of Junmai 🍶.

Tochigi Ai for the second time this month 🥰. Purchased at Icoma Sake Shop Very mellow! It has a perfect balance of rich, sweet and spicy flavor. I love the sweet taste right after taking a sip! It tastes better a little longer after taking it out of the refrigerator. I still have a bottle of Sawahime waiting for me.

Purchased at the brewery store. It is a test brew. It has a clean sweetness and a refreshing aftertaste. I haven't recommended it to the ladies at home yet, but I'm pretty sure they will like it.

The aroma was not very pleasant, but when you put it in your mouth, you can smell the sake-like aroma. The taste is fairly sweet. It is quite a refreshing sake.

Summer excursion. We went to Nikko Yumoto Onsen and enjoyed the hot spring. Unfortunately, the weather was so bad that we went directly to the hot spring resort without any sightseeing 🤣 I wonder what the weather will be like tomorrow. So, we had a local Tochigi sake with dinner. I drank the same sake last year, Sawahime's Kasumi Sake. It has a gaseous taste and even though it has a high alcohol content, it is easy to drink.

Purchased at Icoma Sake Shop. I don't have enough room in my fridge, so I'm having them hold the remaining 2 bottles of Sawahime 😅I took one of them back. First Tochigi Ai in July 🥰. Nama sake version of the sake we had at Keihan department store It feels juicy and rough. When opened, it is about half sweet and half spicy, and feels much wilder than the fire-aged version. When the temperature rises a little, it has a juicy sweetness like golden sugar candy. The bitterness is strong towards the end. It is a little difficult to describe with my vocabulary.

Good morning, bouken! I would like to drink and taste and feel 🤗. I got your July Tochigi love 🥰😌.

Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃 It's difficult to write a review because the taste impression changes so much depending on the temperature range 💦. Maybe Tochigi sake will be a Sawahime series 😁.

This is a memorandum of my visit to "Kaku-uchi Fukumotoya", a standing bar under the guard of Hiroshima station, for a drink with my classmates. I came to "Kaku-uchi Fukumotoya", a standing bar under the guard of Hiroshima station, for a drink with my classmates. The first drink was "Sawahime" from Tochigi 🍶. I was so drunk I don't remember what kind of drink it was 🤪.

Purchased at the brewery's store. It has an elegant sweetness with a smooth aftertaste. The umami is unique and hard to describe. My wife and daughter loved it. I was a little surprised that there was a second cup, which I usually don't have.

Moriguchi Keihan Department Store Sake Festival ⑫ Tochigi Ai 💕 also in Tochigi Prefecture from Kochi Prefecture The Sawa Hime booth was manned by the same brewer who was at the Sake Brewer's Festival, and later, Mr. Bouken told me that he was the Touji (master brewer) of the brewery. This time, the lineup was mainly regular. Sawa Hime Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku The most standard and basic sake. It has a rice flavor, a well-balanced acidity, and a refreshing aftertaste. It is easy to pair with meals. Sawahime Junmai Ginjo Hitogochi A light and dry sake with a refreshing sweet and spicy taste. It is not tasteless, but has a gentle flavor. It is a perfect match for both Japanese and Western cuisine. Sawa-hime Junmai Mild sake made with Tochigi Sake 14. It is a little spicy with a refreshing acidity, but it is a mild sake. It seems to be made with a sake degree of 0 to +1. Sawahime Yamahai Junmai A wild type of Yamahai using Hitogochi. The acidity is very strong, so it is said to be mischievous. It has a juicy flavor and a slight bitterness. It has a tangy and naughty taste. Sawahime Junmai Gold A little hard, matured and slightly burnt. It has a little bit of a richness to it. When I bought it at the brewer's festival, it was labeled 2019. It's more peculiar than weird.

Keihan Department Store Japanese Sake Festival ⑫ Tochigi Ai at the Tasting (2) Sawa Hime was personally positioned as the main dish of this event. Mr. Touji was there! We drank Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku Strong umami and a little fruitiness Junmai Ginjo Hitogokochi Refreshing aroma and gentle sweetness. This is the most well-balanced. Junmai Tochigi Sake 14 I have had a draft sake before, and the impression of a strong and sweet sake is almost the same. Yamahai Junmai Hitogokochi It says "wild," but I couldn't really tell. I think it's wilder than nama-hashiwado. Yamahai is juicy and bursting with flavor. Junmai Gold It's sweet but has a strong sense of maturity. It is like Shaoxing sake. It seems to go well with Japanese sweets. It tastes like a typical matured sake, so the level of perversity is probably low. When I told him how hard it was to open the nigori I drank at New Year's, he asked me if I bought it at Ikoma-san. I was asked if I bought it at Ikoma-san. Maybe they don't wholesale to other liquor stores in Kansai? Other liquor stores said they only get orders from time to time. I am looking forward to the new shipment of the Jun, Jungin, and Yamahai versions of Nama-Harakai sake from Icoma.
