Aroma is good, taste is fair, 1,000 yen per 1 square kilo. Although it has some alcohol and stimulation, it is the strongest in terms of cost performance. It is about a quarter of the price of most sake at this price! Would you pay four to five times the price to drink it? Don't you think a gin-pack would do the trick?" This is the standard by which we evaluate other sake.

Today, we are drinking sake from Hyogo Prefecture. Today's sake is Kiku-Masamune Junmai Barrel Sake. Purchased at a supercenter in Seki City. It is one of the three brands that have been advertised in commercials since Misogi Hagi was a child. When you open the bottle, you can feel the alcohol wafting from the aroma of Yoshino cedar. A sharp flavor is asserted from the mouthfeel. Although it is bottled, you feel as if you are drinking sake from a barrel.

Moriguchi Keihan Department Store, Hokuriku-Shinetsu Good Food Festival/Japanese Sake Festival④. Booth of Kiku-Masamune, Hyogo Prefecture. This time, I was able to talk with many young brewers. I heard that major breweries are having a hard time because of the rice riots in 2021 and the high price of rice from non-contracted farmers. The more rice they make, the more it costs. ◉ Kiku-Masamune Tokusen Kamikyo Hiyoshi Oroshi The Kikumasamune is the best sake in today's lineup. It is indeed a refreshing sake. ◉Hyakumoku ALT 3 This is a high-end brand, but the price was raised in October. Fruity and easy to drink, with a sake-like feel at the end. A blend of Hyakumoku's Junmai Daiginjo and Kiku-Masamune's Junmai-standard sake. Hyakumoku Junmai Ginjo Dry but fruity with a clean finish. Hyakumoku Junmai Daiginjo Hyakumoku will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year. It is a very tasty, refreshing yet full-bodied sake. The brewer also drinks sake from other breweries, and when I asked him which sake he liked best besides his own, he replied, "I like sake from the Tohoku region. He answered, "I like sake from the Tohoku region, and I like 00 Masamune. He told me that he joined Kiku-Masamune because he liked Hyakumoku, and that Hyakumoku also uses Tohoku yeast.
