It has a gentle aroma and mouthfeel that is typical of Toyokoro, with a pleasant sharpness that can be enjoyed. This sake is brewed at low temperature and has a dry, clean finish.
Serve with grilled salt-crusted Akinatai fish

Ingredients: Rice (Nagano Prefecture), Rice malt (Nagano Prefecture)
Alcohol content: 16%.
I am in bed with a cold. I'm going to Nagano tomorrow.
I opened a bottle of Toyooka on Friday (I didn't realize I was sick at that time). I thought it would be perfect for a hot day like today, since most of the Toyokami I drink on business trips to Nagano are dry.
What is it? It is very sweet and delicious, just the way I like it. It was so clear and refreshing that I drank it slowly because I didn't want it to run out too soon. It was really delicious 😊.
Good morning, Nochi-san 😃Thank you.
No, no, I was determined to win again this week, but I had a headache and fever 💦 I rarely catch a cold because I'm a ba fatty.
Toyokoh Junmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki
Rating 4.4
Alcohol 16%, Kinmon-Nishiki from Nagano, Rice Polishing Ratio 59%, Sake Degree -6, Acidity 2.0, Amino Acidity 1.1
The pleasant aroma is unique to Toyoko-no-Ko, with the delicious flavor of Kinmon-Nishiki rice and a soft, lingering aftertaste.
The sweetness is in the style of sugar confectionery (wasanbon), not in the style of fruit. It is not fruity. It is rare to find a Kinmonn Nishiki with such a mild taste. It goes well with relatively heavy dishes.
Toyokashi Dry Junmai Ginjyo Yamae Nishiki
Rating 4.4
17% alcohol by volume, Yamae-Nishiki from Nagano Prefecture, 59% polished rice
A fresh, dry junmai ginjo that retains the natural carbon dioxide gas produced during unrefined fermentation. A mid-meal sake with moderate acidity and a refreshing sharpness.
The sweetness is slightly suppressed. The convergence is acidic and refreshing. After a few hours, it becomes slightly smooth. Dry aftertaste. Slightly bitter taste is noticeable.
☆☆☆☆☆
Sometimes local Toyoka
Slightly spicy and moderately acidic
Moderate sweetness of Fenghuang
Sourness is there, but it's not bitter.
I had the impression that the bitter taste and the sour taste would come out after drinking Toyooka for a while, but at least it's clean and tasty!
Slightly effervescent and quite mild on the palate at the moment of drinking. Discreet fruity aroma. The mouthfeel is tightened by the bubbles and acidity. It would go well with sashimi of white meat fish.
This is my first time drinking Toyooka✨The orange label is very autumnal 🍁It smells great when you open the bottle 💐It's easy to drink and tastes great. ❣️
[The autumn holiday season is here, but the weather is not so good 😅.
The news is repeating the damage of guerrilla downpour every day, but I think it is difficult to cope with such intense rainfall in such a short period of time 🤔.
Well, I'll be working throughout the holiday weekend, but let's drink and soak up the atmosphere for a bit 🍶.
Toyokaro 2025 Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai Gold Course
[Glass.]
Rich aroma like some tropical fruit, a tangy gas feeling with a firm mouthfeel, a bitter taste with a pineapple-like flavor behind it, and a pleasant bitter aftertaste.
What is this? What's this 🤔It's quite a new sensation!
[Mokkiri.]
It also has a tropical fruit-like aroma, and the mouthfeel has a sharp gasiness, which is combined with a mineral flavor and a tight bitterness that finishes with a clean but mildly bitter aftertaste.
This is also a strange sensation, the image of a strong sense of umami with a pleasant bitterness that finishes off the taste.
As you get used to drinking it, the mellow umami and the tightening bitterness become addictive.
The bitter taste that tightens the sweet fat of [Junkei (oyadori)] and [Shiro (shiro)], whose fat is especially delicious, goes well with [Akiyoshi's yakitori roasted in hot water].
The fourth one is the September full moon [corn moon] that recently reached its [watchful eye] on the 8th.
This time a total lunar eclipse also occurred at the same time 🌝.
Next October's full moon will be a supermoon, the closest approach of the moon to the earth that occurs once a year, and we are looking forward to moon-viewing drinks 🥰.
Hi Jive, good evening.
Thanks for working over the holidays🍀.
I'm taking a day off early and it's my 4th straight holiday 😁.
I haven't taken Toyoka yet, but I'm very interested in your new-fangled review 🤤.
I see October is a supermoon: 🌕️
Good morning, Jive 😃.
Is the rain ok in Fukui?
Toyokoso, the chic bottle looks great on you, Jive. ☺️ I'd like to taste the new sensation too. ❣️
Next month is the super moon! That's something I'd love to try moonshine 🥰.
Good evening, ma-ki-chan 🌛.
You've been drunk for four consecutive holidays, let's rest when we can 🥰.
It was quite a unique taste, this was also one of the deepest Shinshu sake, especially precious to go with the fat of meat. ✨️
Good evening, HinaHanaMama🌛.
Thankfully, there has been no damage from rain so far this year in Fukui🙇.
Next month will be the Mid-Autumn Moon and the Supermoon, so I'm spending my days pondering what to open 🥰.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I'm trying to decide what to open for the full moon next month.
I've accumulated a lot of alcohol that I haven't opened in a timely manner, so I'm wondering if this is a good time to open it up, or if I should go stock up on something.
Hmmm annoying🤣
Fruity aroma and rich flavor
A little light in taste? But when you drink it after the wasabi served with seared tongue, you can feel the sweetness and umami.
The aftertaste is refreshing without leaving much aftertaste.
Beautiful green apple type aroma🍏✨.
On the palate, there is a gassy feeling on the tongue, green apple aroma, sweetness, rice flavor and a good amount of bitterness ☺️💐.
You don't feel the high alcohol and milled rice 😳.
It is very drinkable and cosy ‼️
This is delicious 😋🍴.
