Followed by a grand ceremony
The previous tasting was of a traditional sake called "Namahashiro", but this is a regular special pure rice sake.
Slightly sweet but not too sweet.
A good combination of modern and classic.
I got the impression that it is a very drinkable sake.
I also had a bottle of the dry draft sake that I drank at the Mystery Chi-Ya when I went to the corner bar, and it was just as good as ever! It was just as delicious as ever!
Sake that seems to be very popular and sells out early.
I couldn't buy it every year, but I was able to get it as soon as my neighbor Icoma started to carry Morinori 😊.
It is made from Hyogo Yume-Nishiki rice, but it is treated as a regular sake without any description because it is made from rice outside of the standard range.
Fruity and a little floral. I thought it would be heavy like Kamiyoshi, but it was surprisingly refreshing 🤔.
The price is the same as the Kamisen Unfiltered Nama Sake, which is also a good sake with good cost performance.
Sweet wine flavor. It's like a sweet wine in the same vein, but with a swell of sweetness. It has a slightly sweet and bitter shade. This wine is also made from out-of-spec rice.
Taste system is very similar. Peach - melon aroma. This one is a bit drier and has a bitter taste. I heard that they make junmai from out-of-spec rice.
Sourness, less dryness, peach - a sweet mass of melon aroma rushes in with a slurp. I heard that the presidents of Morinori and Rairaku's classmates collaborated with each other. I am happy because I like both brands.
Purchased at Icoma Sake Shop.
Is it a concept like Kakogawa Terroir?
The rice is Hyogo Yume Nishiki. It is slightly sweet, but has a heavy, heavy mouthfeel. The aroma through the nose is very fruity. There is a sense of nuts in the depths.
The Kamisen Unfiltered Nama Sake I had a while ago was easier to drink and had a stronger impact 🤔.
After a few hours, it became easier to drink as it got more comfortable or calmed down.
I think I've been drinking a lot of Morinori in the short time since Icoma started carrying it 🤔.
I still have a bottle of Moritake in my fridge...
Good morning, bouken🐥!
I am curious about Morinori and Tomikunishiki out of the previous HYO5KURA, as I have not tasted them yet 😊I replayed Morinori and bouken's appeared in succession 😆👍👍I am referring to this one too 🙏🙏.
Transparent with a slight yellowish tinge. Fine oily air. The full aroma is reminiscent of freshly cooked rice and golden sugar. There is also a savory aroma reminiscent of rice straw. The aroma is medium-strong. The mouthfeel is sweet and sour. The acidity is light and bouncy. A firm astringency appears in the latter half. Medium lingering aftertaste with a lingering umami and slight bitterness. A mellow sake.
As usual, this one was purchased at Ikoma Sake Shop.
It is rare to find an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake that is not a honjozo.
It is fresh and rich, but easy to drink.
It is 20 degrees, so be careful, but the taste is too good for 1000 yen!
Moderate sweetness and robust flavor.
Citrus acidity can also be felt.
It has a taste that is not often found in regular sake or honjozo.
I heard that the price was raised to 1,200 yen from November, but I think it's still very cost-effective!
Good morning bouken ✨
I would love to try this 😊
I follow Ikoma Sake Shop on SNS because of a certain Mr. ken, but it's an interesting liquor store with an "interesting" selection 😁.
Good morning, Matsuchiyo-san.
So you're looking at X instead of Insta?
It's sharper and more interesting than instagram 😁.
They tell me everything in the store that I can't write on the internet 😆.
I drank once before going out for a drink and again on the way home and drank twice😅.
I had it twice before going out and drinking it on the way back home 😅 Maybe it was because I drank it together with Morinori Josen Unfiltered Nama Sake and Koshinohomare 8 years old sake, both of which are very strong brews, but I was not impressed with it the first time, but the second time I thought it was pretty sweet and tasty!
The second time, I thought it was quite sweet and tasty 🤔.
I've already bought Kaminosen and Koshinohomare, so I'll review them soon!
It is said to be all Yamadanishiki active nigori nama sake, although it is not written on the label.
Purchase it at Ikoma Sake Shop along with Nama Hashiroshi Junmai Ginjyo Nama Nama Sake.
I had to open and close the bottle several times because it looked like it was going to spew when I opened it😅.
It has a strong gas and is shrieking. It is dry with little sweetness. I felt it was the best nigori sake for eating 🤔.
Morinori started to be sold by Ikoma Sake Shop.
I'm glad to be able to buy it nearby, because I thought I had to go to Kobe to buy it, as well as Rairaku.
The toji (master brewer) used to work for Hakutsuru.
It's a little gassy and tangy. Impressive acidity and juicy sweetness. It is a perfect balance between modern and classic. A trace of bitterness in the latter half.
I don't know yet, but personally I think I prefer the freshly opened atmosphere 🤔.
I think the sweetness diminishes and becomes spicier as the days pass.
Second drink at the trial
Morinori Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo
Very different from the Morinori we had the other day😳.
It tasted quite clean, but had a strong umami flavor 🥰.
This one is 👌!
We only drank 2 glasses at the trial (we both ordered 4 glasses for 990 yen)
We went to another restaurant.
We went to a shish kebab restaurant owned by Nadagiku Sake Brewery and had a Junmai Sake Soda to quench our thirst.
I quenched my thirst with a Junmai Sake Soda, and then drank 3 kinds of Sake (4 gou for 2 people)... but I don't have a record of what I ordered 🤣.
All I remember is that they were all delicious and went well with the shish-kebabs and beef cutlets 😋.
After that, I think we stopped by an izakaya near the hotel and had about 3 drinks 😅.
I didn't take any pictures at all so I have no record or memory 🤣.
I drank too much 😱.
The next day, we moved to Osaka and had a banquet with Kansai Sakegawa group 😁.

Icoma Sake Shop Tasting Event (3)
Celebration of new brands
The taste changed dramatically after one week.
It tasted like "Masa" when it was opened 😳.
It tastes like a sake yeast yeast yeast, but it's easy to drink and delicious!
I wonder if the taste changes similarly to the Junmai Ginjo I bought.
I drank a bottle of Motomine Tsuru Hiyoroshi, which I didn't take a picture of because I was planning to buy it. Beautiful and balanced? I guess it's a basic food type.
I'll post a new one after I buy it.
I also drank Rairaku no Botan, Oshiroibana, and Strawberry again, and I was a bit hesitant, but I bought the first one I thought was good!
The other was amazake from Yukihikosan.
It was a little smoky, but sweet and delicious.
I would like to have Nemuchi-san, who loves amazake, drink it!
The last one was a liqueur made with peaches from Arakawa, the world's largest peach farm. And it's 100% fruit juice 😳.
From the label on the back, it looks like it was made in-house.
It's rich, thick, and peachy! It's like a nectar 🙂. It's like nectar 🍑, but it looks like it could be bad if you get too carried away 🤪.
I'm sorry I stayed too long and arrived too late for the meeting.

Good morning, bouken 🐥.
All the sake on this page look delicious😻I want to try them all! Icoma is a really nice place ✨.
Safe safe, don't rush because you'll get drunk 😆.
Kokoromi, a standing bar in front of Himeji Station with a considerable selection of sake from Hyogo Prefecture.
Of course, bouken-san recommended the third drink!
Morinori Junmai Ginjo Hanategami
Rich and mellow, my kind of weirdo sake😍.
Sweet, sweet and acidic 🤣 but soooo good 😋.
This was my favorite 😁.
Hyogo has a strong image of dry sake from Nada, but there are so many good sake!
3 cups of sake and a little sakatobori as a snack for only 1000 yen 😳!
I recommend this restaurant!
However, you order on the touch panel, but there are so many kinds of sake that you get lost 🤣.
