National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka_71
Iwate Prefecture Booth ⑥
Hishiya Sake Brewery is located in Miyako City. Located by the sea, this brewery was damaged by the Tohoku earthquake and resumed sake brewing relatively early with support from all over Japan, and has made a solid comeback.
◉Senryo Otokoyama Junmai Sake
A clear sake with a nice acidity and umami that finishes off the taste. The sake is clear, but the acidity and umami give it a nice, robust flavor.
Fukurai is proud to have inherited the skills of Katsutoshi Tsujimura, a master brewer who was selected as a "Modern Master Craftsman". Mr. Tsujimura was originally the second toji at Nishida Sake Brewery, which produces "Tasake" (rice wine). He became involved in sake brewing at Hishiya Sake Brewery in the fall of 2005, and the brewery is now run by the brewery's successor.

Hishiya Sake Brewery in Miyako City
Sake brewed by Mr. Katsutoshi Tsujimura, a master craftsman of our time
I've seen it before at Kinoshita Meishu Store, but I didn't buy it because I thought it looked like a classic heated sake.
Polishing ratio 60%, Ginga/Ginbukiyuki 16%, 1,460 yen
Slightly dry with a refreshing taste. It's good during a meal.
Best served at room temperature or lukewarm.
Leaving the Iwate booth, what next?
Senryo Otokoyama Junmai-shu Namaizume
When I drove along the coast of Iwate
I was attracted by the label "Nama-zume" and bought it.
Tonight I drank it with "Shidoke"...
I want to drink it with Sashimi. I want to drink it with Sashimi.
No, Shidoke's bitterness is good, too.
Dry and refreshing ✨
Ah. But. I wonder if the sake level is undisclosed (...omega...)hmm.
Maybe... dry. Sake degree seems to be minus.
But sake is mysterious( 'omega')
Various factors come together,
I guess many factors are combined to make this refreshing taste.

The black sake cup fits Otokoyama's image perfectly.
I also like the cylindrical shape.

What a Kiha 40!
Too bad I can't make a video of it. I'd love for you to hear the sound of the engine.
I'm so glad I came!
I wanted to come because there were rumors that the passenger train would be discontinued.
The label of this sake matches the train perfectly!
Concentrated bitterness, acidity, and flavor!
I couldn't buy any snacks, but the sake alone is pleasant to drink!
Today's dinner. On a business trip to Miyako City, we had a bottle of freshly brewed local sake Senryo Otokoyama at Han-azake near Miyako Station. Served with assorted sashimi and fried oysters.
Today's dinner.
You might say that I drank a lot on my business trip, but... yes, that's right!
Senryo Otokoyama from Miyako City's Hishiya Sake Brewery. I had a glass yesterday, and today I had a glass of "Ko" recommended by the proprietress. Yes, no doubt about it.
Today's dinner, No. 2.
As we had come all the way to Miyako City, we decided to try Miyako City's local sake, so we asked the store owner about it. Yummie!
