Ohga Sake Brewery is located in Futsukaichi, Chikushino City, and was founded in 1673, making it the oldest brewery in Fukuoka.
I didn't even know it existed until I came to Sakebar Fukuzo.
This is my first time here.
The first aroma is sweet with a hint of acidity.
The mouthfeel has a tangy acidity, a slight astringency, and a dark sweet umami taste that is typical of nama sake.
It finishes with a hint of sourness.
It has 19% alcohol by volume, but the rich, mellow, sweet-tasting mouthfeel makes you feel as if you are drinking it without feeling it.
There are many delicious sake even in the honjozo category. ☺️
The third picture is an Iroha karuta (color chart) of Sakazukin-chan that was posted in the restroom of "sakebar Fukuzo". A list?
I'm not young anymore, so this kind of thing is rare these days, but I always try to do the lower left "drink water, drink water, and the rest will be easy" 😅.
Chikuzen tasted a sake from Futsukaichi.
The flavor spread in the mouth and was truly delicious.
It was a delicious sake that allowed us to enjoy its flavor.
The product description on the label says "Slightly dry..." Does this mean that it is dry compared to ours?
No, it is very dry.
However, if you drink it cold, it has a gentle dryness and is mild as described.
When heated up, the expression changes to the point where you would think it was a different brand. When heated, the expression changes to the point where you would think it was a different brand. The spiciness lingers on the tongue with a unique aroma. It is suitable for those who like heated sake.
Enjoy it with yakitori or yakitori.

A gift from a friend in Fukuoka who came to Fukuoka Airport to see me off (purchased at Todoroki Sake Shop).
Slightly melon-like finish
The same subdued, fruity aroma as the first sip, with a hint of vanilla and a hint of azuki beans, soft sweetness and umami of rice spreading with a refreshing acidity, and finishing gently with a hint of bitterness and a slight spiciness from the alcohol.
Elegant and well-balanced, it is easy to pair with meals, and is also delicious on its own.
My friend's nickname is Tama-chan and his wife's maiden name is Izumi, so he chose this sake as a pun.
It went well with Italian-style grilled salmon with foil, stewed sweet potato, chilled tofu, and squid cod roe.
At a sushi restaurant at Fukuoka Airport. Very easy to drink and refreshing. It has just the right amount of sweetness and goes well with vinegared shellfish.
Purchased at a supermarket.
This is a locally distributed sake from the Ohga Sake Brewery, which makes the famous Fukuoka sake Ohga.
Rarity is high outside Fukuoka Prefecture.
Cold sake.
Slight ginjo aroma.
It has a medium mouthfeel with a soft water content, and is moderately dry, which is rare for Fukuoka sake. It has a good sharpness and a long aftertaste.
It goes well with fried food.
Suitable for intermediate level sake drinkers.
What would you like to pair with pig's feet? I thought about it and chose a sake from Fukuoka👍.
The color is a little yellowish. The aroma has a hint of alcohol and a slight sweetness and sourness from the rice. The aroma is typical of traditional sake.
When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the mild sweetness and umami of the rice, and the acidity gives it a refreshing taste. Easier to drink than expected 😁.
With pork feet 🐷. The smoothness and richness of this sake is preserved with a crisp aftertaste by pairing it with the collagen-rich tender pork leg. It goes well together 🤗Maybe my skin will be soft and supple tomorrow morning😊.
