[First brand I've been able to drink in about 10 years👍] I got a bottle of Kiri-Tsukuba's light nigori nama-zake (unpasteurized sake) from a hometown tax payment. It is a popular brand that is consumed almost exclusively locally, but it appears that there was some new sake left from last year that will be shipped in December 2022. ✌️ Although it has been over a year, it has not lost much of its freshness with a slight effervescence, and on the other hand, it has a moderate calmness that is quite nice 😋. It has a sweetness, but the refreshing alcohol taste and crispness are the result of the aluzochu liqueur. Like last month's Onra, it's nice to be able to get a brand that is hard to find through hometown tax payment 😆.

Tonight, we have Kirizukuba Hatsushushibori Light Nigori from Urasato Shuzoten ✨ This one is popular with Ogawa yeast users. I was attracted by the combination of Ogawa yeast, Gohyakumangoku, and light nigori, so I bought it 😅. Let's start with the supernatant. It has a rich sweet aroma of muskmelon red flesh, which is typical of Ogawa yeast, and the taste is very delicious as if you bit into a whole muskmelon 😋 Also, although this sake is alky, there is no stinginess in the aftertaste at all, and the bitterness and spiciness show up and the balance is excellent 👍. The spiciness of the aftertaste is doubled when the lees are involved, making it a sake with a different expression. It is a fun sake 🤗.

After the chicken with mayo ponzu and Hakurakusei, here it is. The aroma is slightly banana-like. The mouthfeel is light-bodied with a fizziness and moderate sweetness. The second half finishes crisp with bitterness and alcohol, light and delicious. I asked the AI, which has learned data, to suggest the BEST 3 on the inventory list to go with today's dishes, and it said, "Hmmm? Foggy Chikuba, isn't it a good match for today's mayopon?" I asked him, "It is the best match! Because〜(long...)" I wish he had told me first...

Following Raifuku, Fog Tsukuba. It is stable fruity and dry. There is no way to miss it. The omelette and yakisoba were also delicious. (I don't know if it's right as an accompaniment to sake, but...) (I don't know if it was the right thing to eat with sake, but...) At the end, I received a mysterious rice ball as a souvenir.

I missed out on buying Urasato's new sake, so I went with Kirizukuba's new sake. Urasato is Junmai and this one is Aruzome. Muscat aroma Slightly effervescent and refreshing Slight sweetness and fresh acidity Dry finish with astringency and bitterness Can be gulped down like a soft drink I feel that the season of new sake has come this year, too!

Jizake Train E501 SAKIGAKE 2nd Anniversary(Yuki→Mito) Fruity and wine-like taste. It is sweet, juicy and delicious. Just as the name suggests, it tasted like green apples. It was also low in alcohol. The photo shows the snack box lunch from a cafe in Yuki City, a souvenir badge, and a commemorative sake. The commemorative sake distributed in the train was also made by the Urasato Sake Brewery. I am looking forward to drinking it later.

On a recent ride on the JR East Mito Branch's local sake train, I was given a commemorative bottle of Kirizukuba from Tsukuba City's Urasato Shuzo brewery as a gift for the ride. The commemorative label on the event train is delightful.

At the Ibaraki Local Sake Bar. (Left photo) Fruity aroma similar to Koikawa. It is very sweet and has no aftertaste of alcohol, so it is especially recommended for those who do not like sake. It can be enjoyed like a dessert to finish off the meal.

It was dry and had a slight brewing alcohol taste, but not too spicy and easy to drink. It is spicy in Kirizukuba, but generally speaking, it is a medium-spicy beer? It was delicious!

A Journey Through Time at E501 SAKIGAKE PLATFORM13 An event was held at Ueno Station using E501 SAKIGAKE, a converted E501 series train that was once (briefly) active on the Joban Line! In the train, we were able to enjoy Ibaraki's local sake! The first cup was a Daiginjo from Kiri-Tsukuba! It was a slurp and I drank it all up in no time!

I guess this is the first house back here. The 7th glass: Kirizukuba Special Junmai This sake arrived when I was really engrossed in the conversation... I think it was a dry sake with a nice sharp taste 😅I wasn't impressed much 😂. This was from a brewery in Urasato 😳

New products from Kirizukuba's fresh yeast yeast Gorgeous aroma Strawberry, grapefruit, and shine muscat Fresh, sweet and acidic, but with a depth of flavor and depth. It has a crispness that disappears as you sip it. A delicious sake that shows the potential of Ogawa yeast. The sweetness is also noticeable when heated. I would drink it cold or at room temperature.
