This one was recommended to me when I said I wanted to pair it with motsu-ni-ni!
It has a creamy, lactic-acid derived schwash.
The bottle was labeled "be careful not to open the bottle", but it was so mild that it was surprisingly quiet, and even after drinking it, it had less of a squashy feeling. The acidity and astringency give it a delicious flavor that is not overpowered by the thick motsu stew.

Sake from Tochigi
Bo: Junmai Ginjyo Hitogochochi, Activated Nama Nigori
This sake brewery is located in Mashiko. I bought this sake at Okada Sake Shop when I visited the Mashiko Pottery Market. They also recommended Junmai Daiginjo, but I bought this one because it is rare to buy active nigori in May.
The label on the back reads
The label on the back of the bottle reads, "Brewed to harmonize the umami, sweetness, and acidity of the rice, and to achieve a balance of elegant and refined citrusy fresh aroma and acidity.
This is exactly what it says. This is exactly what it says, and everything is well-balanced, elegant, and delicious. It is so delicious that one wonders if this is what it would be like if Jyushiyo made nigori sake.
Degree of liking 10/10

GW's trip to Tochigi #10
The aroma is mild😊The deep taste and sharp acidity is good👍✨It is also very helpful that it can be stored at room temperature🥳.
Jay & Nobby, good morning ☀️ 😀 I was wondering if it would be good to fire up the hope out of season ❓ 😀 but still the refrigerator situation in my apartment 🤣 I bought a small refrigerator for the summer after I came back to Shizuoka 🤣.
An attempt to sneak the sake you want to drink into the company's welcome party.
I suggested to the manager that it would be fun to do a sake comparison of various rice varieties. It was adopted. The first one I wanted to try was Nozomu no Yume Sasara, a slightly sparkling sake that seemed to have been pressed for the first time. It had a pleasant fruity aroma, and the sweetness and umami spread out and was extremely delicious. There was a nice bitterness and a nice sharpness. I guess it's the rice flavor of Yumesasara.

Last weekend, I drank my first sake in a long time.
It was a wish I received from a business partner about a year ago.
It was a wonderful sake with no deterioration because I kept it carefully in the fridge.
It has a freshness like a fresh sake, a slight aroma and a melon-like mouthfeel. The sweetness is only at the beginning and disappears quickly and has a very nice aftertaste.
Delicious 😋.

Pon, thank you for your comment 🙇♂️ Yes, it was in a wooden box. A thank you for the farewell party for a business partner who was transferred. It was delicious 😃.

Sweet aroma of melon and banana.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel its sharpness and sizzle! Light gassy and pleasant to drink.
The taste is light and refreshing with little sweetness and acidity, but when you savor it slowly in the mouth, the umami of the rice gradually emerges. It will have a different taste if you let it sit for a while.
The sake is made from the traditional sake yeast yeast, so I imagined it would have a fermented dairy-like flavor, but it is surprisingly moderate in this respect and is easily accepted by all people.
The aftertaste is slightly bitter.
It seems to go well with spring ingredients.
It is probably not a good idea to compare one sake with another, but I think it was similar to the Kaze no Mori in terms of drinking comfort. Both are great sakes. Thank you again.
Here are some extras.
Nama-hashiro, mizu-hashiro, bodai-hashi... There are various names for sake making, but to be honest, I still don't know the difference between these three. I know that it is different from Yamahai, but...,
I still have a lot to learn. I will keep on studying.
Hello 😃
Nozomu! It's delicious 🤗Tochigi sake 🍶Please drink more and more 👋.
We drink in quantity 😋 but not with knowledge 😅we drink with sensitivity 😄.
Mr. Jay & Ms. Nobby
Hi there, I'm Jay and Nobby and I'm looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you for your comment😊
Sake from Tochigi is delicious, isn't it? Senkori, Houou Mita, Nozomu... all my favorite brands and I envy those who live in my hometown 🥹.

Light flavor with a bit of acidity!
I wonder if it will become more orikarami-like as the days go by.
Now the flavor is still a bit angular but quite mild.
4.5 stars
The mouthfeel is like juicy ripe apple juice. The gassy sensation is more reminiscent of the fermentation process than of freshness. The taste is quite complex and interesting, with some brown sugar and chocolate sweetness. Astringent! The aftertaste is sharp, and what lingers faintly is a lingering sweet chocolatey aftertaste.
Delicious.
This was also purchased at La J oumon. I had seen this sake somewhere and wanted to try it, although the brand name was different.
It has a modern, masculine, and masculine sake feel to it.
Good evening, Nanka Yokai 😃!
Congratulations on the Hatsumo you've been wanting to drink ㊗️ 🎉I've never had this one, but it's quite complex 🤗Please try some of the other Tochigishu 👋

GW Trip to Tochigi (3)-Day 2
At Kanbei Sake Mamoru, we had a comparison of three types of local sake that Tochigi prides itself on 😋.
I don't have any information about the specs, but the aroma is mild and gentle on the palate☺️ with a beautiful rice🌾 sweetness😚 and a sour aftertaste that is clean and crisp 🥳👍This was a delicious sake that goes well with meals.
The second and third pictures are my first visit to Nikko Toshogu Shrine 😀 It was a weekday during GW, but there were many tourists 😳I was impressed by the precious architecture and the elegant and gorgeous colorful decorations🤔The gorgeous and gorgeous historic shrine pavilions were a quintessential world heritage 🥳✨✨✨.
Hello Maechen 😃.
It was your first time to visit Toshogu Shrine, wasn't it? We also passed by Nikko station 🚙 and saw a lot of tourists from overseas 😳I'm glad you enjoyed your visit 🤗.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 🌃😀
My first visit to Nikko was fresh😊It seemed like there were so many foreign tourists 😀I bought and ate Daifuku on my way home 😋.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌛😀😀
