Highly aromatic! This was the first time I thought it was the best!
Is it getting more and more fragrant? Red dragonflies are amazing!
Okaya City, Nagano Prefecture Toyoshimaya
100% Nagano sake rice, 59% polished rice.
The sake is unfiltered and unpasteurized at 16% alcohol by volume.
There is a slight effervescence when the bottle is opened.
The acidity is strong, and at first there is an impression of bitterness, but when you drink it, the sweetness and umami come in easily later.
Personally, I felt more sweetness and umami on the second day after opening.

I kept it chilled in the fridge, but it took some time to cool down!
The word of mouth is that it is fruity, but it was not as I expected due to the strong sake taste.
I would like to try a fresh one next time.
However, if you think it is a classic, it might be good to have a little bit of fruity taste!

Toyoka from Fist of the North Star
Cork opened with good sound
Nice aroma
Strong sweetness
But it is refreshingly bitter
I was a little surprised that the impression was different from that of Toyooka when I drank it out of the bottle.
I thought I opened the spicier one because Hokuto no Ken was sweeter, but I was pleasantly surprised.

This is the first "Toyoka" from Okaya, Nagano.
Grown in Kijimadaira village in Shinshu.
100% "Kinmon-nishiki" grown in Kijimadaira village in Shinshu 🤔.
It is a delicious sake with an exquisite fruity taste.
Best matched with the snacks using matsutake mushrooms produced in Japan 😆.
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)

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.
