Hmmm...the name caught my eye and I tried it.
If I had to say, I would say it was a little on the dry side.
Not enough to buy it, but if it were available in the all-you-can-drink menu, it would be a good candidate. I'm not sure I'd buy it,
After the Daijin main store, we went to the Fushimi underground shopping mall.
The deep atmosphere is irresistible.
We went back and forth between the many stores and got lost, but we entered Myogohi, a Japanese sake bar that seemed to have a strong sake menu.
We started with a set of three kinds of sake. On this day, it was Koshi, Haneya, and Shirakoh.
I wanted to drink Aichi Prefecture's sake, so I ordered a bottle of Isobuki.
It was mellow and full-bodied, and had a fragrance that was typical of Japanese sake.
I was invited to the Isobeki no Kai with Mr. Murase, Executive Director of Isobeki Sake Brewery in Konan City, Aichi Prefecture 🍶.
All the sakes in the third picture were aged by the host (the same individual who hosted the Raku no Sei meeting I attended the other day) 😆.
According to Mr. Murase, the executive director of Isobeki, all the sakes are fast brewed and brewed with basic Ogawa yeast (No. 10).
Incidentally, the toji (president) of Raku no sei also has the surname "Murase," but they are not related.
Except for the active nigori, the other bottles were aged at room temperature, and they generally had a fruity aroma.
The longer aged ones (3 to 4 years) were also quite tasty with a slight caramelized taste.
The active nigori shown in the first and second pictures is a sake that was manufactured in March 2024 and kept refrigerated 🍶.
The top aroma is sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the active nigori with a nice sweetness and the umami of the rice.
The spiciness of nigori gives it a slightly dry and sharp taste.
In Tokyo, it is only sold at Tobu in Ikebukuro, but there are no special dealers.
There is a buckwheat noodle shop in Kanda that serves Isobueki, so I would like to go there next time and try a variety of unaged ones.
It was delicious 🍶✨.
Good morning, Matsuchiyo-san. What kind of individual is the one who lays down so much Raku no Sei and Isao Heki? I'm curious 🤔I've never had Isao Heki, but it's a No. 10 fruity sake! The active nigori is perfect for hot summer 😆.
Good morning, Matsuchiyo-san ☀☀☀☀☀☀.
I probably follow the instagram of the organizer 😁.
Raku no sei love is awesome 🤗.
Isao Heki especially loves Gojo River cherry blossoms 😋.
Hi Peco 🌞.
Is it normal? I heard that you are a company employee.
I heard that he was transferred to Tokyo 3 years ago and started to hold meetings in Tokyo as well.
By the way, he is also organizing a Shikishima meeting 😂.
Hello bouken🌞.
I remember the one with cherry yeast.
That one had the most gorgeous aroma.
I would like to try the regular one that is not aged at room temperature 😂.
Sakae Sake Square (2) Cups
It had a strong sake-like mouthfeel, but with a refreshing aftertaste.
I remember it being delicious!
The starter set included a bottle of Turmeric Power and an extra bottle of Chilled Pita.
I missed the timing to drink the Turmeric Power and drank it after I got home.
It was too hot to use the cold pita, so I put it on the back of my neck to make myself comfortable ✨.
After finishing the second bottle of Kangiku, the third bottle was this Isao Heki daiginjo ‼️
Bike YouTuber brought it to me👍
This one is delicious with an elegant sweetness 😋.
It tastes luxurious 😋 the temperature goes up and the flavor is too good!
It's not like a blue wine in a good sense 😆 This is a gem that I want to drink again!

Honjozo unfiltered unpasteurized sake is an amazing combination... (laughs)
(Laughs.) But, umee! What is this? It has both sweet and bitter... It tastes like a combination of all the good things about sake. Very interesting.
The second cup was the restaurant's signature Isao Heki. I heard that the honjozo was better, so I ordered it. I noticed from the picture that it was an unfiltered, unfiltered, raw sake, but I drank it without knowing it. The sweetness and umami of this sake is very clear. I thought it was more Isun Heki today than Tasake. I went home satisfied.
