Taste the sake from Takayama, Hida.
The sake has a refreshingly cool and sweet taste. The aftertaste is also refreshing.
It was a really delicious sake with a refreshing taste.
Tempura Start ▶️
The waitress asked if I had ever had this before
No, I have not.
Please do!
The master said, "This is quite spicy.
After eating shrimp heads and shrimp 🦐, this sake appeared!
Hot tempura and this spicy sake!
It's good, isn't it?

Nagano Business Trip Part ㊲
I bought these kusudama on my way back to Ishikawa Prefecture from Nagano Prefecture last weekend 😀✨.
The aroma is gentle😊and the palate is filled with a gentle ginjo aroma and rounded flavor 😚This is a delicious sake with a sweet but crisp aftertaste 🥳👍.
Hello Maechen 😃
Kusudama! I got it when I visited you at the Kansai offline meeting, but I have never seen it otherwise 🥲It's a good name for a sake 🍶🤗.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌃😀 😀
I bought this at a souvenir shop along 158 on the way back to Hida and Takayama ✨🫡I bought Hiyayogoshi because I had only had a cup 😊I also bought Hoba Miso and Takayama Ramen 🥳👍.

Kusudama Junmai Ginjo
Since we did not have Junmai Ginjo at the Gifu Sake Event, we bought it at a liquor store in Hida Takayama.
Hidahomare and Abelia flower yeast are used.
One of the 4-goupe bottles (2/10) that I brought home from the trip.
It was served cold.
The color is quite recognizable yellowish.
The aroma is mild, slightly sweet and fruity.
The mouthfeel is smooth, clean and clear, with a slight sweetness spreading in the mouth and a soft, full-bodied fruity quality.
The aftertaste is also clean and light.
As the temperature rises, you can taste a richer umami, and the sweetness and deliciousness increase. However, it also has a bit of a rustic flavor.
The special junmai was just like a country sake, but the junmai ginjo, which is polished to 50%, was clearer and sweeter than the junmai daiginjo we drank at the event.
Ingredients: 100% Hidahomare rice (Gifu rice), 100% Hidahomare rice malt (Gifu rice)
Polishing ratio:50%.
Alcohol content: 15.5
Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi.
As I thought at the event the other day, there are quite a few breweries in Gifu that use flower yeast 😳.
I don't get a chance to see them very often, but I would like to pay attention to the breweries in Gifu that use flower yeast 😊.
Hello bouken, there was a brewery master who studied flower yeast at Tokyo University of Agriculture, and there were many breweries in Gifu Prefecture that used flower yeast 🌸I don't see it very often, but I'll keep trying if there is flower yeast 😁.
Drinking Gifu's Local Sake 2024 in Osaka⑭
Kusudama" booth.
The oldest and largest brewery in Hida Takayama.
Kusudama Handmade Special Junmai
It seems to have a little nutty and has a local, country sake feel. It has a cup-like flavor.
Kusudama Junmai Daiginjo-Namaekozo 400th Anniversary Sake
It was a Junmai Daiginjo-style 400th anniversary sake, but it was very ordinary and didn't have much impact. I think I was a bit of a hebereke in the middle of the bottle on my return visit.
It was time to use the restroom.
The table I had reserved at the beginning was occupied by other people, and I couldn't find any space 😓.
Drinking Gifu's Local Sake 2024 in Osaka⑭
Kusudama which we drank at the Osaka meeting with Mr. Jainobi.
I remember the one we drank at that time was quite fruity.
I think it's a member of the Nihon Meimon Sake Kai, but I've never seen it for sale 🤔.
The one I drank was
Kusudama handmade special junmai
Polishing ratio 60% Hidahomare Sake meter +5
The gentle mouthfeel and acidity left an impression on me.
Kusudama Junmai Daiginjo-Namaekiseki Sake 400th Anniversary Sake
Polishing ratio 50% Hidahomare Sake meter +1
I drank this one when I visited again at the end of the day.
It was a bit ordinary for a junmai daiginjo, I would say.
Not impressive, I would say...
Hello Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀.
I thought of the tag that says Kusudama in Nurukan Sato 😁I've heard the name Kusudama for a long time but haven't seen him 😅I wonder where he's hiding 🤔.
