Purchased at Biwa's only longevity distributor in Osaka.
Tagashira Sake Shop in Moriguchi City.
Nearest station is either Keihan Doi or Metro Taishibashi Imaichi station.
The liquor store is mainly for eating and drinking, so we mainly bought one bottle of sake, but we couldn't find any brands that we can't find in Kansai area 😳.
The wife was very nice 😊.
The brands they carry are
Sugiyamu, Dewazakura, Shigemasu, Sawanoizumi, Yakuseto Masamune, Toryu, Inahana Masamune, Chihazuru, Biwa no Chouju, Shinomine, Bon, Shinkame, Hamachidori, Asahikiku, Kaiun, Shidaisen, Amanoto, Ayumi Masamune, Sanzenmori, Yukinakubai, Suginishiki, etc.
The rest are not sake, but they had Gotenzakura toburoku from Tokushima.
I was wondering if I had to buy a bottle of Higashiryu or Obaste Masamune, which can be stored at room temperature. I was thinking that I would have to buy a bottle of Higashiryu or Obaste Masamune, which can be stored at room temperature.
I was warned that it would definitely blow, so I drilled a hole in the cap to vent the gas and managed to open the bottle 💦 but it still overflowed a little😅.
I guess it's quicker than opening and tightening the screw.
It was a pretty nasty active nigor 😅.
Slightly fizzy and dry with a dry mouthfeel but also a moderate sweetness 😋.
When I opened the bottle, I thought it was not so gassy despite the intense activity at the time of opening.
It's sweeter after the next day, though it becomes a normal sake after the gas is gone. Slightly pineapple 🍍.
bouken, good evening. ⭐︎
Your brother is opening it as soon as possible👍.
I knew it leaked a little 💦.
I'm glad you didn't have too much of an accident 💡.
Surprisingly, the Shinshin also had a strong fizziness and a slightly dry nuance✨.
Good evening, Mr. Yoohee.
I was afraid to leave it in the fridge for too long so I opened it early 😁.
If I had done it by turning the screw normally, it would have been a catastrophe😅.
Oh? You were a dry Shinshin 💦?
Opened February 1, 2024
Purchased at Muramatsu Sake Sho, Shinbashi
It's raw, but it has an aged aroma: ❗️
It was made in 23.11, but was it aged in the store?
Complex flavor like mirin (sweet sake) ^ ^.
It's like a wine, but very unique w/o being a wine.
Very interesting🤣.
Slightly pale crystal gold.
The acidity is less than it looks, and the well-balanced sweetness comes in quickly and without any tugging, making it outstanding.
Shiga Sake Festival in Otsu 202311
Ikemoto Sake Brewery / "Biwa no Chouju" Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture
Aiming to produce sake with a unique flavor, Ikemoto brews full-bodied type sake with a robust taste and acidity.
The brewery is said to be the only one in Japan with the "low-temperature, super-long-term moromi" technique.
(Longer fermentation days give the sake a full-bodied flavor, but the longer the moromi is fermented, the more it dissolves and the bigger the flavor becomes.)
The water used is said to be the water that was served as "gozenmizu" when the 15th shogun, Yoshinobu Tokugawa, visited the brewery to defeat the Tengu party.
Biwa no Chouju Junmai
The rich, robust flavor of the rice is followed by a slight sense of maturity. The end result is a tingling sensation and a sake-like feeling.
Unfortunately, the brewer was not present at the booth, so someone else was in charge, but I only tasted it because it was the last sip and that was it.
I was concerned because there is no indication of what rice is used, but I got a chance to drink it at the restaurant.
Clearly, this was the most delicious 🫢 of the day.
If you like sweet stuff, this should fit the bill: ❤️
At a soba noodle restaurant, my husband had a little share of the drink.â

Classic taste of rice flavor.
It has a twangy feeling, but when drunk with chicken tempura, it tastes just right and is delicious ♡♡♡♡♡♡.
The 2nd and 3rd pictures are paintings that are OK to photograph ✨.
Ponchan❤️Louvre exhibition was on my mind too🎵It's hot but I think I'll go to Kyoto 😅The Kyocera Museum of Art has a great souvenir shop ✨The museum, soba noodles shop and sake❤️It's an adult date 💡!
Good evening, pyonpyon 🌙
It's been a while since I've been there 😊The souvenir section has changed dramatically 😳I enjoy having a regular section to enter 🎶I'm glad I got my sake heated 😁.
Rice used is unknown
It is a unique sake.
The palate has a moderate sweetness, but not so much that it can be described as dry.
The umami spreads slowly,
The acidity is very effective and tight.
It is not peculiar, but it is a type that cannot be tasted anywhere else.
I like this balance and sense of taste.
Interesting sake, I found it: ❣️
It smells like it has a high acidity, and it has a high acidity. It is not high acidity, but rather acidity with flavor.
However, the attack is sweetness with a sweetpotato taste. From there, the acidity spreads slowly, but the sweetness remains in the aftertaste.
Each sip is satisfying and can be enjoyed for a long time.
Today is the longevity of Biwa.
This sake is from the town of Imazu in Kosai, Shiga.
It is located in the shopping district of Imazu.
The store recommended the Daiginjo, but it was too expensive to buy, so I chose this one.
The aroma is slightly fresh and yogurt-like.
The bottle says that it is recommended to be served at room temperature, so I drank it at room temperature and found it to be a deliciously dry sake. The sweet and sour taste sharpens for a moment, then the milky flavor spreads, and the tangy bitterness tightens it up.
The alcohol content is 15%, but the mouthfeel is more alcoholic.
It has a unique flavor. It becomes very light when heated.
Personally, I prefer it warmed up.
I have been thinking about buying Biwa Chouju for a long time, but never had the courage to go into the store.
Why is it that I go shopping in the shopping arcade?
And when you buy Biwa Choujyu, please buy the eel as well. The eel around here is delicious!
Personal preference 3.5/5

It's getting colder!
I feel like it's time to have a series of nabe (pots and pans)!
This time, I got a bottle of Ikemoto Shuzo's "Ai Shibori" from my parents.
The website says it's dry, but I didn't feel it was that dry because of the subtle umami and acidity!
It was more like a white wine than the Chitose we had the other day.
I ate a lot of fried shishamo at the supermarket because I thought it was delicious, but I had stomach problems the next day😅.
Thank you for the food!
Good morning, Ofuji-san!
I'm in Shiga but haven't had it 💦I'd love to try it if it's like a white wine! I think it's time to have a hot pot at my place too 😊🎶.
Ofuji-san...........................concha♪
You're still young, what's wrong with your stomach😅
I hesitate when it says "dry" but if it's like white wine, it might be good.
Good evening, Pon-chan.
I have a lot of sake in Kyoto that I haven't had yet.
I think it would probably go well with cheese!
I immediately bought a lot of tofu for nabe ✌️.
