I received this as a souvenir from a pilgrimage to Ise.
It has a strong rice flavor and a refreshing aftertaste. It is delicious.

A colleague of mine brought in this sake. It seems to be a rare sake that is only available through regular purchase.
It has a fresh aroma and is very clear and luxurious. I got the impression that it was carefully crafted with brewer's alcohol. It is perfect for my taste buds as well.
You can't take it home with you when you visit Ise, but I heard that you can drink it there, so I would definitely like to taste it again.
National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2 (11)
Mie 1)
Eiji-san went to the Aichi booth, so I'll start from here alone.
Iseman in Ise City
Rice polishing ratio 40%, Yamadanishiki 16%, Sake degree -3, Acidity 1.4
4760 yen
This sake has won various awards such as Kura Master and IWC.
It has a strong impression of sweetness rather than flamboyance. It is sweet and delicious.
The brewer was there and we talked about his visit to the brewery for New Year's. The tickets for the National Sake Fair were not selling as well as expected.
We also talked about how the tickets for the National Sake Fair were not selling as well as expected. He was a nice man and I remember talking with him about many other things.
After this, this person continued to serve us at the Mie booth.
The second Ise souvenir from my senpai.
Refreshing aroma, bitterness, and a hint of sweetness.
Thanks to this, I was able to finish the observation. Thank you very much.
It is an easy-drinking sake with a clear sense of rice.
You deliver this sake to the Ise Jingu Shrine, don't you?
I'm going to drink it to purify my body.
Visiting Ise with my wife's parents!
(We just went there last October 😅)
Geku shrine → Sarutahiko shrine → lunch at Ise Kaku Uchingu restaurant → around the inner shrine and back to the inn for my parents and to Ise Man for myself and my wife 😁.
This time, due to the space in our fridge (and budget), we only tasted the raw sake!
It was refreshing and delicious 😋😋😋.
Kami no Ho, is the name of sake rice. It is made in Mie Prefecture and seems to be rather limited to the region. The taste was milder than that of nama-shu, but full-flavored. It was a delicious sake.
We had a drink at Ise Jingu Shrine and Okage Yokocho.
Okagesama Shiboritate Nama-nama Sake
Alcohol content: 18
Ingredients : Rice, rice malt (all rice is domestically produced), brewers' alcohol

It tastes deliciously crisp and lychee-like, as is typical of nama-shu. It has a good acidity and a pleasant alcoholic taste. I personally like it very much.
It tastes similar to the Watanabe Sake Brewery Hidahomare Sake Rice Growing Study Group.
