Chiyonohana, the local sake from Imi!
I can't buy any of the Gimei Gin-Sen at the moment😅.
I went to the brewery at the end of the year and bought some ✨.
I also got a bottle of Nigori, so I'm opening that one as well😁.
The first one is a classic!
The alcoholic content of the alcoholic beverage is the best🥰
After that, it has a rich sweetness and a gentle acidity.
It also has a gentle sourness that you don't get with
It also goes well with meals😋.
It's not fish, it's meat!
Then, Nigori!
This one has a slight gassy feel🥰
The taste is also richer, sweeter and more lactic✨.
It's a little less gassy than the standard, but it's also 17 degrees 🤣.
The drinkability is dangerous⚠️.
I'm going to go to the brewery again this month for another special junmai.
Good evening 😃.
I'm jealous of your local sake 😍.
I think I prefer the nigori version🎶.
I remember when I used to drive right by there before I got into sake 😅.
Good morning, kino.😃.
A local limited edition sake from Ikumi, what a luxury! The mountains behind the house!
The brewery must be a beautiful place too 😚
I'd like to go to Ibii Road as well as Abii Road.
Good morning, Manachie!
After the Honjozo, we'll have the Tokubetsu Junmai and Junmai Ginjo!
Anyone can buy them as long as they make a reservation, so please let me know and I'll send you more ✨.
Good morning, Haruei Chichi!
I'm sure they'll probably ship it to you, so if you call to reserve it, they might be able to help!
There's also a Kura online store, but it's always sold out😅.
Hi MAJ, good morning!
You can't even buy it at the brewery because it's only available at special dealers😅.
And the Gifu distributor is only by lottery, so it's getting harder to find even locally😭.
Good morning, etorannzyu!
I used to buy the standard one every year, but this year was the first time I drank the nigori one✨.
So you've been to the countryside in Gifu 😆.
My parents' house is about a 5 minute drive from there!
Good morning, Mr. Hissan!
I'm glad my parents live close to the brewery😊.
The area around the brewery is filled with Toji's art, making it a bit of an odd space✨.
Ibi Road is painted all over the place😆.
I often go to the neighborhood for work these days, so I buy it at the brewery ^^*.
The aroma is very rich, like freshly cooked rice, which I've never experienced in a honjozo before.
Yet it has the clean and crisp taste of a honjozo.
After opening the bottle, the aroma settles down and the flavor picks up. I'd love to try this hot 🤤.
<Elegant, clean, lightly flavored, mildly flavored, local sake from Sagami.
This is a locally distributed sake from Japan's smallest sake brewery, Sugihara Shuzo, which brews the famous hard-to-find brand "Imi".
I think that local sake from famous breweries like this is often a hit. Like Suzukagawa from Kiyosaburo Shimizu Shoten (Saku), Aizu Miyaizumi from Miyaizumi Meijo (Collage), and Izumikawa from Hiroki Shuzo (Tobiroki). I'm looking forward to it.
The aroma is oily, with a hint of umami.
However, when you put it in your mouth, you will find that it is very beautiful and slightly sour and fruity, unlike the impression of the aroma.
It goes in easily like water, and after you finish drinking it, the flavor appears slowly. Then it disappears as if it were melting. The taste is very elegant and thin. This is nectar, happy water. Even though it is thin, there is a solid sense of satisfaction.
It's not Ghibli, but it's like Clarice from "Cagliostro's Castle". She is an elegant and beautiful princess. However, she is young, has a bright core, and looks good with a smile.
Satisfaction: ★★★★.
I'll post the full version on the blog, complete with character images and such. If you'd like, you can search for "korune sake" or come from the link in my profile section.
Another brand of Imi no Kura!
They say it's the same tank as the Jun Gin from the Imi brewery.
It has sourness and bitterness in the sweetness that is typical of Imi.
It's like a sake-within-a-sake!
I've reserved a bottle for next season and I'm looking forward to it😆.
This is the second bottle of Chiyonohana that my parents sent me. It has the typical Chiyonohana fruitiness and a slight carbonation. It's delicious.
It's a sake, but it seems to go well with mozzarella and other refreshing cheeses.
I couldn't buy a bottle of Tokujun from Igami...
So I opened this bottle from the same brewery!
It's hard to get a bottle of Imi, but
It's not easy to buy a bottle of Ikimi, but you can buy as many bottles as you like if you make a reservation at the brewery.
The tank is the same as the one at the brewery, but rumor has it that the flavor is slightly different.
The melon-like fruity taste is almost the same as that of the Ikumi.
When I went to my parents' house in Gifu, I picked it up at the brewery.
I also got some sake lees!
It is very useful for nabe.
I couldn`t check in properly so I reposted...
I got this sake on the way to a sake brewery tour the other day. It is a good sake with a clear but complex aftertaste👌.
This is a sake from the Imi brewery.
Sugihara Shuzo started with this sake.
While it has the melon taste typical of Imi
It has the meloniness that is typical of Imi, but it also has the robust sake feel that is typical of Alzoe.
I think it goes well with meat and sauce rather than fish.
Advanced drinkers like to heat it up.
If you're a beginner, it's best to drink it cold.
