We decided to finish off the last glass with a new sake (right side of the first picture).
This is the most fruity sake so far👍.
Freshness of new sake, light spiciness, fruity juiciness like green apples...probably the most balanced of the five!
After tasting the sake and buying the limited-edition sake barrels and Nara-zuke, we departed for Dazaifu. I'm glad I got to attend the kurabiraki festival, even if it was just by chance!
There was a lively crowd of locals, young and old 😌.
Good evening, Haruei Chichi!
I was enjoying the Futsukaichi - Dazaifu area, although only for one night ✨.
Even though the brewery opening happened to be postponed and was today, it was great to be with the locals👍.
The fourth cup is a "Tamadezumi" unpasteurized sake! (First picture, left side)
The sweetness is even richer than the previous "Ooga Unfiltered Nama"!
However, as you savor it, the acidity and pungency slowly come from the back, along with a hint of shiitake mushroom-like aroma.
The coffee milk-like aftertaste is impressive ✨.
Second glass of nigori sake from "Tamade Izumi"! (First picture on the right)
The mouthfeel is chili-chili spicy.
It is generally smooth, but on the other hand, it has a softness typical of nigori sake, like eating ramune ice cream👍.
Delicious and drinkable like water. It is said to be in the dry and light category, but it has no peculiarities and is light. It seems to be a favorite among beginners.

Sake goes well!
