I had Saku Junmai Honochi as the 13th sake in the Nihonbashi Tasting Walk 2024. I had already met it in January 2020, so I decided not to post it 😋.
Nihonbashi Tasting Tour 2024-14th type
I wonder what this aroma is... I think it's fruity, but I'm getting confused😅.
But I think it is a delicious sake with a pleasant acidity and mouthfeel, although it is a little sweet.

The 7th Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix 21
Toyonoume's booth.
This is another unknown brewery in Kochi with a sales volume of about 300 koku.
I wonder if they have been replaced by a new brewer, Mr. Kazuho Takagi (6th generation) from Mr. Naoyuki Takagi (5th generation).
The Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate Nama Shuzake version is a refreshingly sweet and acidic sake.
It has a refreshing sweet and sour taste, with a little bit of sake. A little bitterness at the end.
Ito wo okashi Junmai Ginjo Activated light nigori
Active light nigori with CEL-24 yeast.
The aroma is fruity and gorgeous. The overall impression was that it would be sweeter, but at the end, it was surprisingly dry with a hint of sweetness and bitterness.
It was originally supposed to be made with Kochi yeast, but CEL-24 yeast arrived by mistake. That's why the name "Itookashi" was chosen.
It was also different from the image of Kochi sake.
Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix 21
Toyonou Ume, which has been attracting a lot of attention recently due to the influence of the crazy salad pavilion.
I drank
Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu
Matsuyama Mitsui, Polishing ratio 50%, Sake degree +2, Alcohol 16%.
It is delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. I think only Saladokan carries Toyonoumai's nama-zake 🤔I think Ikari Supermarket carries the fire-brewed version.
Ito wo okashi junmai ginjo katsudo usun nigori
Tachiharuka (don't know the rice 😳), 60% polished rice, -10% sake, 14% alcohol.
Sake made with CEL-24 yeast. I haven't had it in a while 😋.
It's shwitty, pineapple sweet and tasty, with a refreshing acidity.
It's a 500ml bottle, so it's the kind of sake I'd drink at home 🤣.
Sake made with CEL24 yeast from Kochi. I drank the fire-aged version before, but this is a draft sake.
The aroma is fluffy and tropical. The mouthfeel is sweet, and the juicy acidity that spreads on the tongue is just like a fresh pineapple. The aftertaste is clean, so you can drink it in large gulps. I prefer the taste of nama-shu.
Tachiharka rice is said to be delicious as rice rice.
