Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. Kashiwa Rou Sake Brewery Co.
HAKURO sweet.
I tasted it and was impressed by its juice-like taste and its drinkability, so I bought 3 bottles at Niigata Sake-no-jin OSAKA.
I tasted it and was impressed by its juice-like taste.
The first aroma is softly of koji malt.
The color is cloudy and there are some fine koji-like fragments floating in the air.
It has a creamy, smooth, light mouthfeel.
The taste is sweet and sour, but it is about 80% gentle and moderate sweetness and 20% mild sourness, with some peachiness.
As bouken reviewed, it's also a bit briny.
It still drinks like a juice and is quickly emptied.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic)
Rice polishing ratio:65
Alcohol content:8%.
Purchased at Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA
They had a 4-goupe, but I decided to go with 3㌥😅.
Low alcohol, sweet and sour.
It also has a lactobacillus-like taste 🐄.
I think it has a bit of a bran taste, but it's sweet and easy to drink.
I bought this one because I was confused with HANABI, which is a second fermentation in a bottle, but maybe I should have chosen HANABI...
Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA㉖
Kashiwa Dew booth.
Famous for its sake, which has been sold at Yoshinoya for 35 years. Now it is a group of Hamada Shuzo, famous for DAIYAMDE shochu.
The mannequin I spoke with at Keihan Moriguchi was there and remembered me.
He said it was better to taste it at the end because of its strong taste, so we tasted it almost at the end.
He was handling it all by himself and looked very busy.
Yoshinoya Honjozo Nama-Seikozo.
It has a gentle attack and a slight umami aftertaste. It has a gentle attack and a slight aftertaste of umami.

Kashiwa Dew Junmai Ginjo Tokubetsu Gohyakumangoku
It is hard but clear and refreshing, with a good umami taste and a little spicy.
Happo Junmai Seishu Kashiwa Dew HANABI

Slightly spicy with a hint of lychee.
Kashiwa Dew W Yuzu

Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA㉖
After parting with Mr. Sakeran, we went to the Kashiwa Dew booth, which was manned by a mannequin who was at the Keihan Department Store event.
We passed by the booth several times on the way, but he said it tasted too strong, so we said we'd stop by at the end 😅.
I've had Sanzui before.
I drank
Yoshinoya Honjozo Nama-Shu
Sake served at Yoshinoya.
It has a slight sweetness and is beautiful and tasty for a honjozo sake.

Fruity, sweet and delicious 😋.
I think I've seen it somewhere, so I'll buy it if I see it!

Slightly smoky
Super dry junmai sake.
Dry but not too dry and easy to drink

HAKURO SWEET
Very sweet, refreshing, light and delicious 😋.
Yuzu Sake
It is rich, fruity and delicious!
When Kashiwaroh Sake Brewery was part of the Sezon Group, Yoshinoya was also part of the Sezon Group, and it was served not only at Yoshinoya but also at Prince Hotel and sold at Seibu Department Store. So it seems that Kashiwa Dew is still served at Yoshinoya even today.
Kashiwa Dew Sake Brewery is now under the Hamada Sake Brewery's umbrella.
My second drink of the day was a nigori sake from Kashiwa Dew 😁.
I was looking at the menu (photo) to see what to have next, and I saw that they had nigori sake! As a nigori lover, I didn't hesitate to order it 👍.
It reminded me of doburoku from my recent trip to Hida Takayama!
I wish I could go to the Dobrok Festival 🤣.
The second Niigata souvenir. It may not be a Niigata-only sake, but it was delicious, so I bought it, he said.
It is 8% alcohol. This is a rice juice. It is slightly effervescent and has a refreshing rice sweetness.
Ponshu-kan is directly connected to Niigata Station. If you like Japanese sake, you can spend three days here. I tried various kinds of sake at the sake tasting corner. The lineup was centered around classic types of medium to dry sake. As a person who usually chooses modern type, I found something new!
