Nigori was packed in barrels at a department store event. It has the original flavor of rice rather than the sweetness of amazake, and a slightly effervescent taste. It is easy to drink and you will never get tired of drinking it.
Ekiben + Sake on the Move
Recently, a local ekiben shop in Shiga stopped selling ekiben.
I guess all ekiben shops on local train lines must be having a tough time 😥.
This sake is a commemorative can for the 140th anniversary of Omiya station.
It's quite sweet and tasty!
It goes perfectly with the oysters in the ekiben 👌
And it happens to be a collaboration train with Disney!
This kind of thing makes me excited, doesn't it?

Pineapple syrup!
Fresh fruity, intense sweetness.
Bitter aftertaste, not unpleasantly sweet.
A bit sweet for in-meal use.
Seems to go well with western food.
But I like the taste 🍍.
Matsuoka Brewery's "Teisho
Risshun Shibori Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjozo, which heralds the spring of Teisho, which has many fans.
Every year, within a month of its release, it is sold out everywhere. This year, it was brewed with Saitama G yeast and sake Musashi. It has a fruity, fresh, pineapple-like aroma and a deep flavor. The aroma of koji (malted rice) can also be felt, and although it is sweet, it has a sharp aftertaste.
Data for this season was not available.
I couldn't help but buy it when I saw the rock-tastic, high-impact label!
The aroma is just a little fruity, the taste is like a sweet white wine and tangy on the tongue.
The aftertaste is both sweet and bitter.
The sweetness is a bit strong, but it is refreshing and easy to drink.
Personal Satisfaction: ★★☆☆☆☆
Umakuchi Junmai Ginjo with Gold Leaf
Junmai Ginjo-shu made with Yamagata Prefecture's Tamanao (Yamashu No. 4) rice suitable for sake brewing, with a luxurious gold leaf.
It has an elegant ginjo aroma from M310 yeast and a slightly sweet, umami flavor.
It is quite dry, with a sake meter of +14, but it does not feel that dry and has a sweet taste. This may be due to the lack of acidity and bitterness. The aftertaste is quite refreshing. The fruity aroma is subdued, and there is a slight sake smell. Not bad, but maybe not to my taste.
