Seishun 18 Ticket Trip 🚃Ibaraki Tochigi Version
Visited Kiuchi Sake Brewery in Hitachi-Konosu. Dry, strong acidity with a strong umami flavor. Refreshing✨We had it at the counter in a relaxed atmosphere as there were few people due to the rain 😋.

From Mito, take the Suigun Line to Hitachi-Konosu 🚃 owl🦉 to the Kiuchi Sake Brewery, famous for its Nest Beer 🚶 and have a cup at the counter by the store 🍶.
Aromatic and soft. Pleasant sake.

Pon-chan, thank you for your comment😊Kiuchi Sake Brewery, I think they are more famous for their Nest Beer🍺🦉, but their sake is also quite good. The atmosphere of the brewery is also very nice 🎉.
Slightly grayish and clear, with aromas of yogurt, Kamishinko, green bamboo, and honeysuckle. The attack is rather weak, with a gentle acidity and a rather long finish.
100% Aizan, 50% polished rice, 16% alcohol.
It has a nutty aroma and rounded sweetness, but the aftertaste is sharp. It is a good match with well-flavored simmered dishes such as inari-zushi, which will neutralize the flavor.

★★★☆☆
I heard that this sake is only available in spring.
It was the last one at the liquor store, so I bought it!
The first time I opened it, I could feel the aroma of koji.
And you can smell the koji aroma quite well!
I recommend it to those who like the smell of koji!
(I don't like it so much... I like sake, but I don't know why...)
I was curious about Hitachiniku Brewery.
It's a beer place, but I can't drink, so I ordered sake, which was very fruity and delicious!
All the sake is from Ibaraki.
The plum wine was also delicious.
It is famous for its beer, but it is also a solid sake brewery. As the name "Pure Ibaraki" implies, the sake is produced in Ibaraki Prefecture.
The sake has a soft, rice-like aroma when you drink it. The taste is pleasant and easy to drink, with no persistent aftertaste. It is a sake that does not interfere with the taste of food and is easy to pair with food.
50% polished rice
Slightly aromatic in a traditional way.
Crisp and dry with a hint of acidity. It is not too harsh and spicy, but not too mild either.
Surprisingly easy to drink. It is easy to drink with pickled vegetables.
Sake bought at Itako Roadside Station
Because we had a long way to go home, we selected sake that we could take home at room temperature.
And it comes in a box.
Ahhh, nice!
Calm aroma and taste
No twisted aroma or taste
A drink that never tires.
I like it.
Alcohol content: 17%.
Rice polishing ratio: 65
Aged at least one year in the brewery
This is a freshly squeezed unfiltered unpasteurized sake only available at this time of the year. The slight effervescence is pleasant.

I always drink local sake at New Year's, and this year it was Kikumori from Naka City.
I remembered that there was a Kikumori square.
