HYOGO SAKE EXPO 2023" (4)
KARIBAICHI SHUZUKI SAKE Brewing Company "Shugetsu"/Tanba Sasayama, Hyogo Prefecture
Established in 1916.
Shugetsu's standard sake is "Kamisen-shu," which won the Gold Prize at the Heated Sake Awards 2023.
According to Mr. Bouken, there are now some special distributors.
Shugetsu Junmai-shu Nama
Hidatsuki Junmai-shu Namaishu Nama
Hidatsuki Hiyoroshi
Shugetsu Junmai Daiginjo Wakayama
Hidatsuki Junmai-shu Nama-zake Nama-zake.
All of the Shugetsu sake have a strong umami flavor, with a slight deep sweetness, and are very tasty without being spectacular.
Junmai-shu and Nama-shu are hard to choose from.
The most expensive one had a bit of alcohol and tingling sensation, so it was more suited for a medium-bodied sake.
Nemuchi, good evening. ⭐︎
You've got Shugetsu down pat too👍.
I bought it without tasting it, but Nemuchi's review made me look forward to opening it more and more 💡.
Good evening, Yoohee 🌛I jump at brands I haven't seen before and hold off because I have the disease of tasting them anyway🤣Yoohee, I'm jealous you made it to the brewery ✨I'm looking forward to your review 😉.
HYOGO SAKE EXPO 2023⑦
Shugetsu is a sake that I ordered and drank in the past.
Recently, a special distributor has been set up and they have started coming to Kobe Hankyu for tasting and sales, so it has become easier to buy than before.
I tasted the following
Special Junmai Hiyoroshi
Tsuki no Himuro Nama-zake
Cold Enclosure Junmai Namaisake
The hiyaoroshi was easy to drink without any sense of aging. I don't mean to be rude, but I was surprised at how easy it was to drink.
The brewer asked me if I would like to try the Junmai Nama. I was surprised at how delicious it was! I was surprised at how delicious it was! The acidity was impressive.
I think it might be my favorite sake from Shudzuki. Sorry I didn't buy it.
When I said it was delicious, the brewer was like "right?
I only recommend Hyogo sake 🤣.
I almost never see Rakurakutsuru even in Hyogo 🤣.
The aroma is robust, the mouthfeel is smooth, and a hint of sweetness can be felt down the throat, unlike what one might expect.
It is as if all my worries have been solved for the better.
We had it uncorked.
At first, the impression was a little hard, but when it was slightly chilled, the rich umami of the rice overflowed. The tangy alcohol stimulation is also pleasant and does not make you tired of drinking it.
Driving in Tanba Sasayama. We happened to pass by the Karibaichi Sake Brewery, so of course we stopped by. I enjoyed it with some mackerel sushi I bought along the way. I have recently started collecting sake cups with the brewer's name on them.
Clear and colorless. Fruity aroma reminiscent of lychee. The intensity of the aroma is medium. The mouthfeel is light. The nose is also fruity, with a hint of lychee. The light acidity is followed by a rich astringency. It has a slightly long aftertaste. It is a fragrant and mellow sake.
Slightly honey-colored.
It is a slightly sweet, light-bodied daiginjo that is easy to drink and has no peculiarities. However, the richness and fullness when and after swallowing are quite impressive. It leaves a satisfying aftertaste.
It is a very dark nigori sake, with a strength of 18 degrees Celsius.
It is a thick, creamy, high alcohol sweet sake. The bitterness of the nigori is not so strong, and the sweetness is thick and rich. However, there is a spiciness from the high alcohol content.
