At Ueno "Oden & Local Sake Fest" 🍢.
We found sake from Nozaki Sake Brewery in Akiruno City!
I tried it with hiya and found it to be mellow with a clean aftertaste! Perfect with Tohoku's miso oden 😋.
The waitress was kind enough to explain it to us 😊.
In early autumn, I went to Akiruno City in Tokyo to feel nature. It was still a little chilly when the sun went down at that time.
I had lunch at a soba noodle restaurant called Koharuhiwa (delicious!). When I casually asked about a sake with an unfamiliar name on the menu, I was told that it was the best sake in Tokyo. He told me that he thought it was the best sake in Tokyo. I wonder what it tastes like.
The aroma was a little alcoholic with a hint of ginjo. When I drank it, the taste was quite unexpected. I was expecting something classical, but there was a juicy fruitiness. I can't narrow it down to a single fruit, but it is an easy-drinking sake with multiple fruit aromas mixed in tastefully.
The sweetness is moderately restrained and the volume is not that much along with it, but there is a moderate bitterness at the end that gives it a good three-dimensionality.
It was a high-level sake that combined a refreshing, pop taste with a solid umami flavor. Even people who do not usually drink sake said it was delicious, so if you stop by the brewery, please give it a try. I think it is best to chill it well and drink it up in about 3 days. It was very impressive!
Hi flos_lingua_est 😃
I saw this sake by chance at my first soba restaurant! The sake gods guided me from there 🤗 I would love to drink it while having soba 😋.
Junmai Nama-zake from Kimasa. It has an upfront aroma of alcohol and melon. The hint of alcohol softens somewhat. It has a light mouthfeel with a hint of cucumber sweetness, but the bitterness and astringency spread strongly. It is a relatively fruity sake among the Kimasa brands.
One of our treasured bottles, Kiyomasa's Autumn Leaves Oroshi. My favorite autumn sake from my favorite company, Kimasa. For a strong and solid Kimasa, it has a slightly fruity aroma, which is a pleasant betrayal. Melon type, maybe?
I'm not sure if I'd like it warmed up or not. It tastes great cold. I have a feeling it would be great heated up, but I'm enjoying it so much in the cold sake stage...
It's a very difficult taste.
Junmai🍶New stored sake✨Summer only 🔥.
A little grassy, bitter, sweet and sour 😳 Dry aftertaste. Crisp with stuffed bell peppers 🫑. Umami with grated baby sardines. It came into its own when warmed up. Sticky and spicy. Finish with a grilled rice ball 🍙.

I regularly check the evolution of alcohol 🍶.
How about this one 🧐.
Light but profound rice flavor 🌾.
I can feel a little alcohol but you get used to it when you drink it.
It's got a nice astringent aftertaste and a deep ginjo aroma with a big-boned 🦴 finish 😁.
Event. Sake Fair 2024.
I'm in Tokyo, but I never had a chance to see Tokyo's sake 🍶.
I will take this opportunity to drink it. ❗️
The color is clear.
The taste is sweet and sour, with the sourness being stronger.
The mouthfeel is clean and refreshing.
Almost no ginjo aroma.
The acidity gives it a refreshing and clean impression 🍶.
