Wife's Choice 🍶Surprisingly, it's covered with the owner's recommendation (purchased 2 weeks ago)💦. It's a little softer than the last one? It's a delicious sake with a fruity mouthfeel and a nice sharp taste 😉.

The 22nd Hankyu Brewery Festival (2) Sawahime] booth. This time, the brewers were there. There were three sake breweries from Tochigi Prefecture: Sawahime, Tochikane, and Shikizakura, so it was a Tochigi love 💕 zone 🤗. ◉Sawahime Special Honjozo Made from Gohyakumangoku rice. It has a deep, penetrating umami, a bit refreshing, caramelized, and slightly sweet taste. This is a delicious Honjozo 😋. ◉Sawahime Tokubetsu Junmai Premier Made with Yumesasara. Juicy, acidic, clean, crisp, and light. ◉Sawahime Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjyo Hitogochi is used. It has a fresh, slightly bitter chocolate flavor with a refreshingly delicious aftertaste. ◉Sawahime Yamahai Junmai Hitogochi is used. Soft acidity and a gentle lactic acidity. Slightly sweet with a lingering finish. Another tasty one. Love Tochigi even at events 🤗💕!

The 22nd Hankyu Brewery Festival (4) We took a break for about an hour and waited for Nemuchi's arrival. While we were waiting, we met Mr. Usagigoten 🐰. From here, Nemuchi and I will go around together 😊. Love Tochigi 🥰① even at the tasting! There were 3 breweries of Tochigi sake lined up so we decided to continue drinking 😁. Sawahime-san is becoming a familiar face at Hankyu events. This time it was the brewer, not the toji! We drank Sawahime Special Honjozo It was delicious, full-bodied and full of flavor! I think it was my favorite of all the Sawahime we tasted that day! Sawa Hime Junmai Ginjyo Hitogokochi Nama Genjozo Unlike when we drank it at home, it had a ripe and nutty taste, which I didn't like a bit! Sawa-hime Tokubetsu Junmai Premium Yumesasara I've had this one in the past, and it's mellow and delicious. Sawahime Yamahai Junmai I bought a bottle of this one and drank it, but the hi-ire version is easier to drink. I think I've had all of Sawahime including tasting and drinking at home except for the limited edition 🤔.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby. Now that they come to department stores and there is a store near me where I can buy it, I have a much better chance to drink it 😊. The only thing I haven't had a chance to try is the pink nigori 😅.

It was hot again today, so I went to the local liquor store 🚴 on my way home from the pool. I bought a bottle of the newly arrived Hatsuzawa Hime 🍶. It has a fresh mouthfeel and a crisp finish. It has a nice mouthfeel, so you can drink it easily, but it also has a strong alcohol taste. It is the perfect sake for a hot day. ☀️

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!

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.

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.
