A recent brewery that is not allowed to obtain a new sake license. It is a very high level, beautiful sake with a good balance between the fresh koji taste of white malted rice and the fruity muscat-like acidity.
The aftertaste is also very nice as it finishes without leaving a sweet aftertaste.
This one is coming!
At Kuwabara Shoten in Gotanda.
It is a beautiful pink colored sake.
It is said to be made from a Japanese herb called kuromoji.
The aroma is herb-based ginjo aroma.
The taste is of course unique. It tastes herb-like.
It is a sake with a high degree of perfection.
Purchased at the Takashimaya Sake Festival.
So-called "craft saké" sake. The only ingredient is rice malt.
It is sweet and sour with white malted rice. It is sweet and sour, but it has a fruity taste and I like it better than other sakes made with white malted rice.
Opened October 1, 2023
Purchased at Kojimaya Sake Shop, Noborito
Mmm, so good ‼️
Juice 🍹w
Too easy to drink...
I keep drinking it, it's too dangerous 😆.
No need for any snacks, just this ‼️
This honeyed, ginger-like atmosphere is a black moji.
Anyway, the brewery's intention is to consume more and more...
Today 10/01 is Sake Day 🍶.
I will relieve my fatigue with a sake (or other brewed sake) obtained on a business trip to Kita-ku, Niigata City.
A cloudy white color and bubbles are visible, increasing the desire to drink. The viscosity is slightly light (alc14).
Good melon aroma and fruity flavor.
This is a melon soda for adults. It is not too sweet, and the subtle bitterness of the melon is so pronounced that it gives the illusion that you are really eating it. The aftertaste is long and delicious.
Takashimaya Sake Festival 10
LAGOON BREWERY is a so-called craft saké.
We tasted
Shozora - Naturally grown Kamenoo San San Sumi Sake
Shozora Amber SAKE Margherita
Shozora Mori no SAKE ~Kuromoji Doburoku~ (no photo)
San San Sumi Sake is made from rice malt only. It is sweet, juicy, and extremely delicious!
Margherita is a sake made with tomatoes and basil.
It is sour and Italian. It has a great sourness as if you were drinking tomatoes. I'm not a big fan of tomatoes, so I don't think I'll ever buy them myself 😅.
I forgot to take a picture of it, but the dofuroku was delicious.
The San San Sumi Sake was so good that I apologized to the brewer for not going through with it even though he was at Asano Sake Shop too 🤣.
I bought a 300ml bottle of Sansan Sumi Sake here.
The 19th brewery at the 6th Takashimaya Sake Festival
LAGOON BREWERY "Shokku" / Niigata Prefecture
Founded in 2021 on the banks of Fukushima Lagoon, which is rich in nature.
Due to the deregulation of sake production licenses to "limit sake to export to overseas", the company now produces "other brewed sake".
This is another brewery that impressed me personally and led Mr. Bouken to establish this brewery.
Since they cannot make sake, they brew craft saké using local products.
Shozora naturally grown Kame-no-o San San Sumi Sake.
When this was explained to me, I thought, "Genius! I thought, "Genius! What are you mixing?" I asked him, "What are you mixing?" He told me that it is not a mixture of anything, but a subtractive craft sake.
It is a sake made with only rice malt, without using any rice as the base. Since white koji is used, it also has a citric acid sourness.
Shozora Amber SAKE Margherita
Mixed with tomatoes and basil, this sake tastes like a pizza, but I don't know how to describe this one. It was a sake I had never experienced before and it was unclassifiable.
Shozora Mori no SAKE - Kuromoji Doburoku.
A doburoku mixed with the leaves of a tree called kuromoji. I couldn't tell the taste of Kuromoji.
Craft saké is also interesting❗❗
Green apple aroma
Sweet and sour, tastes good with carbonated water
Takananishiki produced in Aga-machi, Niigata Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio: 48
Alcohol content: 15.5
@LITTLE SAKE SQUARE Kinshicho
Cloudy white color with a slight yellowish tinge. Viscosity is strong (alc13).
The aroma of melon and malted rice is present. The melon aroma is slightly dominant.
The melon flavor is rich, just like a melon shake for adults. The aftertaste is dry, so it is delicious and can be drunk for a long time.
An avant-garde sake brewed with tomatoes and basil. Strong wine-like aroma and flavor, with a thin impression of bitterness. Easier to drink than expected.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
A drink called "Alcoholic Muskmelon" (Alcoholic Muskmelon). Translated as "drunken melon" (Shozora: drunken melon).
Polishing ratio: 80%, AL 13%, 15% muskmelon with pulp, doburoku🍶.
The bitter taste comes first in the mouth, but the bitterness is like eating a melon.
This is also a taste I've never experienced before!
It was not a sake that I would recommend!
Purchased from Niigata LAGOON BREWERY
I had been curious about this beer while driving in Niigata and this is my first purchase 💰 After hearing a lot about it, I chose this one: 💁♂️
Opened the bottle right away 🍶This is delicious😊.
The taste is a rich dobrok, but the aroma and flavor has a fresh herbal? Wood? I can smell the aroma and flavor of 🤔.
I wonder if this is what you mean by the flavor of chromojis?
The taste is rich but the flavor is refreshing and the slight fizziness fits very well😊The grains are the largest I've ever had in a doburoku and I got the impression they are very satisfying 🤔.
A type of doburoku I've never had before 🍶.
Very tasty! Thanks for the treat...
