Ogawa-machi, Hiki-gun, Saitama Prefecture.
Of all the sake from Teisho's brewery, the most commonly sold sake at restaurants in the local Ogawa-machi area is this Namaigin, especially this 300ml bottle.
It has a clean aroma, a thin but gentle body, and a freshness that is typical of a freshly stored sake.
It does not interfere with food, and it is certainly a good idea to have a 300ml bottle of this sake in impressionable restaurants👍.

Saitama Prefecture booth (15)
Matsuoka Brewery is located in Ogawa-cho, Hiki-gun. The president of the company was visiting a liquor store in Hyogo Prefecture for a tasting on the same day, 6/14, and was not present here.

Too cold, it's too clear and sharp, with a sense that the umami is lost.
The president will be replaced in 2024 and Sho Matsuoka will take over as the seventh generation. Toyoake's brewer and Teisho's 7th president are close in age and seem to be good friends since they were classmates at the brewing experiment station.
They have a strong image of dry sake, but recently they have been making a new fresh juicy type, and they said that they arrive at the same place because of their Teimatsu style, for better or worse.
Forgot to take a picture...

Matsuoka Brewery in Ogawa-machi
On the same day, there was a Teimatsu tasting at a liquor store in Kobe.
I thought it was unusual for them to come to Kansai, but I guess it was in conjunction with the Kokusyu Sake Fair?
I've had Teimatsu a few times, but it has a dry image.

Dry and slightly smoky. Teisho always feels smoky.
I bought a fruity & juicy type Teimatsu at a liquor store that was having a Teimatsu tasting, so I'm looking forward to it 😋.
Both myself and Muchi forgot to take a picture of it😅
This sake has a light, refreshing taste.
It has almost no sweetness or umami, but it can be drunk smoothly, so it is very well made as a regular sake.
No, this is a delicious sake in its own right.
Local sake from Saitama 🍶 purchased at a sake brewery in Ogawa-machi. In a sense, it is not like Teimatsu's sake, which is very popular nowadays. Fruity aroma, sweet taste, and a sharp finish! I really wanted to enjoy the marriage with yakitori and horumon (hormone), but... this sake is best served with sashimi! So, we are enjoying it!
Teisho's fertility festival🌾.
The fertility festival is a collaboration of seven breweries including Shuho and Raifuku? I'm not sure if it's a collaboration of all seven breweries.
The first aroma is slightly fruity and sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, it has a slightly carbonic acidic taste.
Juicy, clear sweetness with a slight bitterness that feels like hard water and finishes with a sharp taste,
It was delicious. ✨️

Limited edition can of Teisho (Mikadomatsu).
Commemorating the 140th anniversary of the opening of Omiya Station.
Yesterday, I went to Omiya to watch the Saitama Prefecture High School Baseball Spring College.
I found out about this limited edition can of Teisho from an advertisement posted in Omiya station. I think only a limited number of sake fans would jump on this, but it is a perfect advertisement for me👍😊.
Sharp junmai ginjo sake with a nice sharp aroma.
