Kamotsuru Shuzo, a sake brewery led by four toji (master brewers), brewed this one-time fire-fermented summer-only sake by So Toji Tomoyasu, who is in charge of the brewery.
The label features a picture of a blue sky with swallows flying through it, and while it is dry and light, it has a refreshing summer sake-like aroma that runs through the mouth, which is a perfect match 😆.
It is a well-balanced sake with a refreshing and light flavor that matches well with food 🍶.
Came across a tasting today. Hiroshima sake. Expectations. Is this the brand you drank with Obama?
Not too much promotion. It's very favorable.
But there is not much dry sake in the lineup?
Is it different from "Moon after rain" or "Houken"?
I bought it because it was one of the drier ones.
It's not dry, but it's good.
Cool and refreshing aroma like ramune.
The rice flavor has a fresh feeling after drinking.
The outline of the rice is clearer than the Daiginjo of the other day.
It is delicious.
4/5 stars for my favorite.

Served with anago meshi (rice with conger eel) at Fujitaya in Miyajima, Miyajima, Japan. The sake was refreshing, delicate, and did not interfere with the taste of the rice. It is easy to drink.
The aroma is mild, and the flavor of rice and gentle sweetness is balanced by the addition of alcohol to prevent it from becoming too heavy. It has a classical flavor with a strong grain-derived miscellaneous taste, acidity, etc.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+⭐️
This is a sake for evening drinking that would also be delicious heated in the cold season. I was deeply impressed as I drank it, thinking that if I had encountered it when I was a college student or when I was not used to drinking sake, I probably wouldn't have thought it was delicious. It was a bit choosy about the food, but it was delicious cold or chilled.
Buy half price discount at Fresta.
Sake brewed according to a method described in documents from the early Edo period.
This sake has a rich, pure rice flavor with a hint of sourness in the sweetness.
Insanely delicious rice juice
Nice aroma
My favorite sweetness
It's refreshing and has no corners, but there's a lingering aftertaste? Umami? Slightly stimulating?
I'm going to a sake festival in Saijo, Hiroshima in October, so I'll buy this again!

Hi @Mizuhashi 😃
Welcome back to Japan 🇯🇵 🤗Did you have a flight ✈️ delay or something? Even if it's not Japanese food, I guess sake 🍶 is still good in Japan 😋.
Jay & Nobby, I'm back ✌️
As you may have guessed, we were on an overnight stay with two meals at the airline's expense due to aircraft trouble 😅.
Sake kept arriving while we were away😃.
