Soft and strawberry topping
The same fruity aroma of strawberries as the topping, a not too strong but full sweetness and umami of rice spread out with the sourness of strawberries, and it slowly finishes with a lingering strawberry aroma and sweet and sour aftertaste.
It is better as an aperitif or dessert sake than with a meal.
It is mostly strawberry juice, but it went well with pasta with chicken in tomato sauce.
By the way, there is a strawberry farm in Kagawa that sells sweet strawberries, and their soft-serve ice cream is also delicious!
Masaaki Sapporo. Good evening 😊.
I'm local but I didn't know this drink 😓.
Strawberry 🍓🍶 and tomato sauce go well together 😲.
I'd like to try it together 😋💕
Good morning, Minosuke😃The Kawatsuru Sake Brewery looks like a nice atmosphere and I would like to visit when I go back home, but I haven't made it there yet😅The sake here is only available once a year 🍶The sourness of the tomato sauce and the sweetness of the strawberries was a nice touch: 🍽️
Slightly gassy
Muscat-like aroma, a little green and botanical, with hints of young olives.
Green apple and muscatelike sweetness.
The sweetness is quite restrained.
Slightly mineral.
After that, there is a firm lemon acidity.
After that, there is an astringency that spreads to the palate.
A little bit of alcohol.
Easy to drink, I think.
This is Kawatsuru produced by Koyama Shoten in Tama (Seiseki Sakuragaoka).
It is a junmai nama sake with a delicious flavor, and although it is dry, it is easy to drink, almost sweet. My personal impression is that it is the kind of sake that men and women of all ages will like and that everyone will like. I would like to drink it slowly. This is my impression of a sake that I do not often choose to drink!
I was told by the liquor store that opening the bottle was quite a kinky ⚠️, so I opened it with a kinky bottle. I chilled the bottle very well, but it took a bit of time.
The aroma is grapefruit and rumney. The aroma is grapefruit, rumney, and a touch of sourness.
When you drink it, it's so sweet and sour and not so bitter! Sweet and sour, not so bitter grapefruit, a little amazake-like rice soda 🫧The aftertaste is refreshing and delicious.
After a few days, it comes together and has just the right sweet and sour taste. The sourness is nice. I like this one better!
Open bottle too, but you can drink it like juice and it's a kiken drink 🍹.
By the way, the first time I opened the bottle, it was safe, but I drank about 1 gou? I drank it and left it on the table for a while, which was a mistake. When I twisted the cap to drink it again, booooo! I was baptized with 🚿.
I'll have to put it in the fridge for a little while.
Hi Kotaro 😃I'm curious about Kawatsuru 🥰It looks sweet and sour and delicious 😋I think it's my favorite 💕I'm surprised that you opened the bottle dubar🫧 after just a little while 😳No way 💦I'll be careful when I drink too ❣️
Hello, Kotaro!
I'm curious about Kawatsuru because I've only had Sanuki Kuraudai and I'm under the impression that it's sweet and easy to drink 😋.
Oops, it blows up again after a little while😅.
I'll be careful when I drink shuwashuwa.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama!
It's low al but not thin, sweet and sour and tasty, you can gobble it up 👍I think you'll like it too 😆 ♫Please don't let your guard down until you get about halfway through 🤣.
Good evening, ma-ki.
Sanuki Kuraudei also looks delicious 😋I haven't had it so I'm curious 🥳It's also easy to drink so if you find it 🎶I thought it was ok since I drank some 🎶I did it totally carelessly 🤣.

This is the first time I had Kawatsuru Olive which I have been wanting to have.
I like it very much. lol I like it more than Sanuki Kuraudai lol.
It has a fruity and fresh mouthfeel like muscat, very easy to drink and you can gobble it up like juice lol.
I think it is also due to the low alcohol content!
Personally, I would recommend this sake to beginners rather than Sanuki Kuraudai!
I'm sure I'll be back for the next one as well, as they seem to release different sake for different seasons!
I'm sure I'll be buying more Kagawa sake in the future.
Thank you very much for your hospitality!
On a clear summer day, I took a walk around Shodoshima Island and Takamatsu Castle!
The idyllic scene of olive groves. The idyllic view of the olive groves, the refined aroma and depth of flavor of olive beef and olive oil. And the knowledgeable mechanism of Takamatsu Castle was a day to be treasured ✨.
Afterwards, we took a sip of Kawatsuru 🍶 while crossing the Seto Inland Sea.
When the bottle is opened, it has a mellow, sweet and sour aroma of berries.
The mouthfeel is round and smooth. It has a body of berry and red wine-like flavors, with sweet and sour overtones in a predominantly astringent environment. However, the clear, clean taste that is typical of jun-dai and the spiciness that comes at the end of the palate act as a balancer to tighten it up, making it a delicious wine that is full-bodied but also has a good balance!
A wine glass will be a big help for this one 🍷.
Jako-ten" is a must when you come to Shikoku!
It's a gem you can't miss 😋.
This is a draft sake from Kawatsuru Shuzo, the brewery behind Sanuki Kuraudei, which we had the other day. I like Sanuki Kuraudayi's variety, but this one had a fresh, modern, royal taste... but as I drank it, the spiciness and bitterness came out nicely, and the balance was good. It seems to be brewed with local Yamada Nishiki (from the Tanonoda area in Tanonoda). I look forward to more.
