When I was a very beginner sake drinker,
I drank it at a sake tasting and felt it was too dry.
I never had a chance to drink it after that 😂.
I discovered nigori, and the store owner recommended it to me as sweet and easy to drink, so I gave it a try ⤴️
It goes well with Japanese food: ❣️
Sake and food taste better when paired with food than on its own😍😍.
It's so light and soft on the palate that it's hard to believe it's 17%.
Umayum⤴️⤴️⤴️😍
The combination with the food makes the sake go down a storm!
I guess local sake goes well with everyday dishes 😆.
It's wiped out my image of Shigemasu so far 😂.
I'll drink more from now on😆.

Good evening Rika 😃
We too raised Shigemasu yesterday 🤗 actually we bought it by mistake 😅 and it turned out to be a great decision 😋Nigorigo looks delicious too 😍.
I'm sure you've had a lot of beginners and you're a veteran 🍶 😆.
Jay & Nobby 😆I saw your review 😆You must have mistaken it for Shinomine! But the labels are similar lol 😂😂It's interesting to come across such sake 😆If you get a chance, please try the Shigemasu nigori too👍I've gotten over being a super newbie, but I'm not there yet 🤣.
MAJ 😆 I've been drinking a lot of different brands of sake and local sake goes well with my everyday food! I'd like to drink more and find out what kind of sake I like. ❣️
I've been wanting to drink Shinoho 🤔 now that I think about it, it's a totally different kanji, but I bought it by mistake😅.
So this is my first time at Shigemasu 🤗.
Make no mistake about it guys 😉.
I'll make love to you without any information at all 😆 I'll make love to you
Yes, the aroma is sweet ☺️
I'll take a sip...! Sweet? Or is it bitter?
It's mild on the palate, but it's quite bitter, and at first we both agreed that it's bitter 😗.
But as we drank more and more, we could feel the bitterness moderately 😚 We said we would drink it slowly, but it was so good that we finished it right away 😋.
Now, let's continue our GW Mashiko walking tour: ‼️
After leaving Okada Sake Brewery, we walked for about 20 minutes in the heat ☀️ with no one else on the road 💦family of four 🥵 and finally reached Sotaike Brewery 😮💨
After entering and looking around, we tasted three bottles of Sanbana! The first was the sweet "Hana-Sanran" with apple aroma, followed by the sour "Howa Howa" that we had previously enjoyed, and finally the "Honjozo" which was served warm and was all delicious!
We didn't buy anything at the pottery market, but my daughter somehow bought two boar cups and gave them to me as a gift 🥹.
Now let's go back to Utsunomiya and finish up ‼️ and we were off on our way again 🤗.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😃You're right, the font and the finish looks like Shinoho ‼️ This is a great find ✨👍I like the gift 🎁 boar's mouth, everything that happened was a great episode, I'm smitten 😊.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
You have a great sense of smell to draw out the best sake even if you get it wrong😇.
Is it just me or does sake tasted at the brewery taste better than the sake you buy at the store ❓🤣.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌛If you ask me, the bottles look similar 😁The Shigemasu brewed with rice from Yame looks kind of delicious 😋The sake from your daughter with the boar cup looks like it will be a nice touch ✨.
J&N-san, konbanhar!
If you two are bitter ❗️ conclusion, I might be a little scared of my sweet tooth😖💦.
But I'm sure I'll buy the wrong one 😂.
I'm looking forward to your review of what you drink with the 🎁 boar cup🎶.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
This is another sake connection 😁Shigemasu is a major sake in Fukuoka and I used to drink it a lot 🤤.
It's like a Kyushu sake, it's very complex and delicious 🍶 I recommend ☺️ nigori and others 🍶.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😊.
It really looks like a shinomine at a quick glance 🤣 coincidental encounters like this are one of the best parts of buying sake 🍶.
And a nice surprise of a boar cup from your daughter 🥳.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😃
Walking together for 20 minutes... 🚶Surprise gift of a boar cup... 🎁 You grew up a good boy 🤣There's a good reason why the liquor store goes out of its way to get it from Fukuoka 😌.
Hi Yasbay 😃.
Indeed! If you get it wrong, you can taste it without any preconceptions 🤗and I agree with the theory that it is more delicious if you drink it at the brewery 😁🙋🏻🙋🏻♀️
Hi Erin 😃
I felt the entrance was pretty bitter 🤔 but hey, it might be good if you match it with some spring wild vegetables or something like that ‼️ if you make a mistake 👋
Hello Kotaro 😃.
A meeting through a misunderstanding! Sounds like a drama 😄Suspense movie😱"Are you not Shinomine?" And starring in a movie like 😆 "Sake Banquet: Shigemasu".
Hi Rafa papa😃
I think she has indeed grown up to be a good girl 🥹all thanks to Nobby 🥹It's all thanks to Nobby 🤗Thanks to the liquor store 🤗It's from Fukuoka, passing through Nara!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄.
You bought the wrong letter 😁.
But if you look closely, you can't help but see it 🤣.
The bitterness can turn into deliciousness, so I'm a little curious about this drink 🍶.
Jay & Nobby Good evening.(^o^) It is true that at first glance, the kanji characters look similar! But this is one fateful chance we have to share😄You drank it all up in no time! It was a good encounter, wasn't it?
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! Shinomine has a hieroglyphic character style, so I think I know what you mean. lol I felt like you were referring to a comment I received earlier, so I had to respond. lol I recommend the limited edition kurabiraki sake with Sotaike's gate designed on it!
Good evening, Noodle Wine King 😃.
My daughter took this picture! I guess you can't hide the fact that you're good friends with her 😄 I know you can't hide it 🤗 You're a couple of idiots 😆.
Good evening, T.KISO 😃.
Assumptions are scary 😓I thought so at a quick glance😅Yes! The bitterness also turns into deliciousness, doesn't it? It was a strange taste 😋.
Good evening, Sashu 😃.
It was a good encounter from a wrong look 🤗It was a drink that made me think 🤔 it would taste different depending on the meal 😊.
Good evening, Sake My Life😃.
Yes, I know! I know you commented 🔍 that you were looking for Shinomine because you wanted to drink it! Here is the result 😆 but it is delicious and correct👍I made a note of the limited edition brewery opening sake 🍶!
Jay and Nobby, good evening ^_^.
You are so mischievous that you bought Shigemasu by mistake with Shinomine.
I was able to drink Shigemasu only because I made a mistake.
Personally, I'm not a fan of bitter sake, but I'm a little curious 😊.
Hi Manta 😃
I'm J&N 😉 I thought I bought it, but when I took a picture to upload, I saw that it was from ! I bought it, but when I took the photo for the close-up, I saw that it was ⁉️ 😆 But the Shigemasu is also very unique and tasty 🤗.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😁.
Shinomine and 😰 have similar kanji characters!
This is another good encounter 👌.
I ordered Hanamura by mistake at an izakaya when I first started drinking sake and was told it was not Hanamura! Shame!
What is this sake with the retro label?
It's a sake from Fukuoka, isn't it?
Pour it into a glass and you get a cloudy sake.

Green apple-like.
Fruity with a hint of rice and koji flavor.
The title "Snow Falling in Summer" is apt.
The texture and taste are soft and light.
It has a freshness.
Delicious.
There was only a small amount left in the boar cup...
I wanted to drink more.

On the second day of my trip to Hokkaido, there was a sake event on Raccoon Alley 🍶Nice timing👍!
There were breweries from all over Hokkaido! Great food ✨Sapporo Hotei Zangi, Atsukishi Oysters, Gyoja Garlic Tempura, etc. 😆.
Dinner was Genghis Khan 🐏.
Sapporo ramen and soup curry were also available, but I wanted to make a reservation for these as well ✨.
I wanted some Sake, so we went to a Sake bar, my first time at Shigemasu 😉 It's very gentle on the palate with a light sweetness 😊 Delicious ✨I wanted to try some other nigori, but the price was too expensive so we left right away 😅.
Good morning, Mr. King of Noodles and Sake☀️ photo looks like a school trip to an adult boys' school, and it looks like a lot of fun 😆 The food all looks delicious, as expected of Hokkaido, which is a gastronomical paradise, as well as the drinks❣️
Mr. Noodle Drink King
Hi there 🤤🤤.
Shigemasu nigori sake is delicious 🤤.
When 5 guys get together, we become children no matter how old we are 🤣I'd like to take a trip for guys 😁I think I'll aim for the summer racecourse in Niigata first 🤣.
Hello Mr. Noodle King, It was my first time to eat Genghis Khan. It was very tasty without any smell. Thank you for taking me to a good restaurant😊Take Manachie to the sake bar.
Good evening, Galilan 😃.
A school trip for the fellas would be great ✨ Of course a school trip with the ladies would be fun too 🤤.
Even if it's just the fellas, the Susukino's will comfort you 😏.
Good evening, kojo 😃.
I love adult travel while remaining in my childhood 👯.
I'd love to see the Niigata 1000 race in person 🏇I'd love to see it in person 🏇I'm sure you'll enjoy the good drinks and the specialty food 😆 Summer Dash 🎵.
Good evening, Mr. Nochi 😃.
I'm glad you enjoyed my first Jingisukan. ‼️ pickled Jingisukan is also delicious, so I'll send you a delicious one next time 🎵
Not Manachi because he gets angry and takes it out on me🙅♀️
Vacation during the first half of Golden Week.
I bought a bottle of Fukuoka's local sake at Kokura station and enjoyed it with my meal.
It was so gentle on the palate that the sake went smoothly into the mouth and quickly absorbed the flavors of the food.
The sweetness of the sake was elegant and did not interfere with the flavor of the food, making for a beautifully understated taste.
The sweetness is elegant, and the taste is beautifully understated, not distracting from the food. 🍜
It is a bit on the dry side for a Fukuoka sake. It's a bit on the dry side for a Fukuoka sake, but the fact that it's so unrefined makes it very Fukuoka-like (sorry, I live in Fukuoka).
Sweet aroma of peaches, peaches 🍑.
The moment you put it in your mouth, it's very smooth,
but it passes down the throat smoothly.
The aftertaste is very refreshing.
