Bringing Sake to the Year-End Party (Part 1)
Wanting to try a variety of sake rice, I took the plunge and brought sake to the company's year-end party: 8 bottles.
Ishikawa was represented by the Ishikawa tag team of the Don't Stop Sake from Noto series.
Taniizumi Junmai Ginjo-Hyakumangoku No, which could not be sold due to the Noto Peninsula earthquake, was made into a kijoshu, Yoshida Shuzo's specialty.
The light sweetness and slight bitterness of this sake is TANIZUMI⁈Delicious.
Long time no drink a Kijoshu - surprisingly it is not very rich, which is easily drinkable. Quite rich sourness like yogurt and lactic acid - together with some rich sweetness. Again better to be paired with food :)
It is a Ishikawa style sake - rich in texture and more bitter in taste. I think it will be better pair with oily and meaty food, else it will be a little bit too much. The umami and minerals at the end will be a diverse one - depends on whether you like it or not.
The first one this year is Tani Izumi from the Hiran collaboration.
I had bought it in the fall and finally opened the bottle.
It has a mild acidity like a grape. The alcohol level is 14 degrees, so it is easy to drink. I have never had the original TANISEN, so I can't compare it to it, but it is very tasty.
Last February, I had the opportunity to visit Noto Town, which was hit by the disaster, to support the recovery efforts. I happened to pass by Tsuruno Shuzo and remember being horrified by the extent of the damage.
I pray for the earliest possible recovery.
Take home a bottle of this one that you like and drink it at home 🍶.
I hope it will support Noto 😊.
I also wanted to try some of the "Hiran"!
The rice is "Aizan" that survived the disaster, the yeast is Kanazawa yeast, and it is made with the "Namo" yeast that Yutaro Mori, the toji at Mori Sake Brewery, is known for!
The sweetness of the Aizan and the acidity of the yeast is irresistible. The acidity is irresistible!
I was about to drink too much, but I held it in and drank it gratefully 🙏!
It is light, refreshing, and has a light, tasty acidity. It is a delicious sake, just as Mr. Tsuruno says on the label.
Recently, I have started to see the second Makuake brand on the e-commerce sites of some liquor stores here, and I wonder if it is difficult to sell two bottles for 6,600 yen. If you can still get your hands on a bottle, we hope you will drink it along with the first one and help the Noto sake brewery to revive its business. A little while ago, a collaboration sake between Kamikawa Taisetsu Shuzo and Hiyoshi Shuzo of Kinpyo Shirakoma was also released.
Thank you for allowing me to enjoy drinking sake like this today.
Don't stop #Noto's sake!
Tani Izumi and Hiran's collaboration sake🍶.
One of the bottles I bought because it was uploaded as being in stock at Saito-san 😄.
Collaboration between Tsuruno Sake Brewery and Tobiran no Mori Sake Brewery, both of which were affected by the Noto earthquake and tsunami! If we can support them even a little☺.
Now, about the sake, the owner told me that it has a sweeter, more Tobiraman flavor compared to the Tanisen original, and he was right 😂.
I'll take the sake as "Hiran" 🙏.
The aroma is sweet. The mouthfeel is also soft pear? I can feel the soft sweetness 👍.
Not too sweet, but with a light sourness that is easy to drink and does not linger 👍Yes, it is delicious.
I think it is a well-balanced sake that can be drunk alone or with food 😆.
Next time, I would like to try TANISEN original label!

Don't stop #Noto's sake!
Delicious flavor and acidity.
It's easier to drink a little longer after opening the bottle.
Sake with beautiful acidity. The sweetness comes afterwards and lingers. It is not persistent, but it is not sharp.
Fruity and delicious. This sake was brewed at the Mori Sake Brewery in Nagasaki, a long way from home.
Since there is no description other than "all Yamada-Nishiki" and "needs to be kept cool," we do not know the rice polishing ratio or the degree of fire-refining.
According to the SAKE Street Online store, it is 50% polished rice, junmai.
Don't stop drinking Noto sake! This time, the sake on the left side towards the
This is a collaboration with Yoshida Kurau. It is a noble sake.
It is not as sweet as the name suggests. It has a refreshing sweetness. It was so popular with my family that they kept buying more and more, and my portion of sake became quite small...
