Another brand of "Tsuki no I". I bought it because I heard that the number of stores that carry it is quite limited.
The aroma is mild, and the taste is gentle, clean, and clean at room temperature.
I was surprised when I heated it up! It's better than hot sake. It tastes bland when heated to lukewarm.

First time in Hikoichi!
Is this a tasting of something called Oarai terroir? The flavor explosion of Tsuki no Ii did not disappoint, and somehow or other, it also seems to have the flavor of the sea breeze!
Oooh! I can see the Pacific Ocean when I close my eyes! I'm also curious: ☺️
We had it for dinner with yellowtail sashimi and horse mackerel tataki from the supermarket 🍶.
Flame Pillar I feel like Mr. Purgatory. Yum! Yum!"
Since my wife is from Ibaraki, we often receive sake from Ibaraki Prefecture and often drink sake from the Tsukii Sake Brewery, but we don't often have a chance to drink the Hikoichi brand!
The acidity of the sake tightens up the mouth and makes it a good match with strong food.
I bought it because it was a junmai ginjo with a 55% rice polishing ratio and an unbeatable price of 3,080 yen for a bottle.
It seemed to be a good effort, but the flavor was a bit monotonous. It's an acceptable score, but I think it will be better if they work harder to make it more distinctive.
I have high expectations for it.
I bought it at my usual liquor store, so I will buy it again.
The heat has finally settled down and I feel like having a drink.
Let's enjoy the too-short autumn with a sense of nostalgia.
I will be accompanied by dried kibinago (dried young sardines).
It has a sweet aftertaste with a hint of sourness.
It has been a while since I have had sake, but it is so pleasant that it seems to soak through...
Sake is good after all.
Tsukii Sake Brewery's "Hikoichi" is a name that has been passed down from generation to generation since Mr. Hikoichi Sakamoto, the first brewer. Successive generations of brewers have developed their own individuality, releasing as "Hiko-ichi" sake that they feel is delicious and that they want to make.
This time, Aki-agari is made from "Koshigaraku" grown in the local town of Oarai! Please enjoy the taste that has matured over the summer.
