70% polished rice
Aroma of fluffy 🍎. Sourness. A little bit of alcohol.
It tastes like cheap regular sake, but after a while it becomes sweet and refreshing. Surprisingly, there is no sourness.
It's really delicious, my type of sake, gorgeous, yet refreshing and crisp, and you can feel the freshness and taste of the water.
The yeast is different.
A cup with an unusual shape!
The flower design was Kikyo, but they have several other types.
The taste is medium. The taste is medium, just as the motto says: "(1) Not too sweet, (2) Not too spicy, (3) Not too dry, (4) A good sake that you never get tired of drinking. It was a very good sake, but I personally liked it because it had a strong and intoxicating taste that only sake can have! ✨
Juichi-Masamune Sakura yeast brewing
15% brewing alcohol 720ml 1034 yen
Sakura yeast collected by the laboratory of the University of Agriculture is used.
The rice used is "Tochigi Sake 14" and "Nihonbare".
This may be the first time to use rice called "Tochigi Sake 14.
It is sweet and mellow. It is sweet but has a sharpness. The sake tastes like old times. Somewhat nostalgic. I don't know if it tastes like Sakura yeast.
It seems to be treated as a regular sake, but considering the price, I think it is a bargain.

Sake to be exhibited at a sake fair by Juichi-Masamune. I got it for New Year's at a tasting at the University of Agriculture.
It is hard to describe, but it is a very refined and elegant version of an ordinary sake.
It was a good sake to start with.
This is the sake for tonight.
Yes, it is a smooth and easy to drink dry sake without any spikes.
Delicious.
Ah, regular sake is delicious.
Normal sake is fun.
Let's make a regular sake club!
We went to Morito Sake Brewery, which has stalls at the Taiyo no Marche and Yokohama Kitanaka Marche in the Kanto area😊.
Perfect for summer! It's a refreshingly dry sake, perfect for summer! I enjoyed it cooled down to the perfect temperature.
Tochigi Sake Festa ①.
On Saturday, I was looking forward to "Toast with Tochigi Local Sake Festa 2024" 🤗.
As Kotori-san already mentioned, it was a two-day event starting from Friday evening the day before, and Kotori-san, Nanoha-san, Higu-san, and Ars-san from Kenmin-kai participated on the first day: ‼️
On the second day, I met Tsubu-chan at Tobu-Utsunomiya station for the 3:00 p.m. start of the show, and we went to the venue! We met up with Higu and Nanoha-san, who were there for the second day in a row, and they had saved us a seat 😊It was very hot 🥵, so we were very grateful! They were really gods!
I've never had a drink before! So we started off with a toast with a bottle of Junmai Ginjyo Drunken Summer by Higashi Rikishi.
The other drinks in the first half were
Watanabe Shuzo's Asahi Koki Junmai Daiginjo Yumesasara: I knew Asahi Koki was good and I could enjoy the aftertaste 😋.
Kobayashi Brewery's Junmai Ginjyo Kanuma Musume: A dry sake that is easy to drink and refreshing.
Kitanoseki Shuzo's Kura-no-Machi Junmai Ginjo: a dry sake with a sharp taste 🤔.
And Morito Shuzo's Junmai Ginjo Shoninzawa Yumesasara! Jay thought this was the best with a nice aroma 😚.
And the party continued with a lot of talk 🤗.
A mini Kenmin-kai-style love affair with Tochigi 🥰!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌕.
Looks like a fun event!
Nice photo of the toast: ☺️
Come to think of it, I don't think the Kansai Chapter took a picture during the toast 🧐.
Ah! Maybe because Kansai people are impatient and want to drink as soon as possible 😆.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😀
A prefects' party around Tochigi sake is a good idea 😀.
I'm planning to go to Akirika's brewery opening next Saturday, but I'm sorry I don't seem to have anyone to join me as I'm deep in the mountains 🥲.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃Tochigi Sake Festa, it's definitely fun to have a lively conversation with everyone over drinks they've never had 👍Mini Kenmin Kai, I can feel the fun atmosphere from the photos of the toast: ‼️
Jay & Nobby, what a great local sake fiesta 😄and to be able to hold a prefectural party on the spot, what more is there to say? It's just like Tochigi love 🥰. It's also great to discover new sake!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛this sounds like a fun event 🎶I can attend these daytime events from my parents' house in Utsunomiya 😊I would love to go if there is another one ✨.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It's an intoxicating event full of Tochigi love 🫶 ☺️
I can feel your love for Tochigi again in the way the event naturally turns into a petit Tochigi citizens' party 😊.
I'm still learning a lot about Tochigi sake that I didn't know 📝.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
It's great to see the Tochigi love 🥰 of the Kenmin-kai members who naturally get together at events 😁.
We had "Toichi Drunken Summer" at the Kansai Off-line Meeting a few days ago 😋.
Jay & Nobby, Good morning ☀11 Masamune, I may have never seen it before. Sake with a feel that you can only drink there is good, isn't it? And Yumesasara, even better!
Jay & Nobby.
Good morning!
It's nice to be able to taste all the local sakes at once 😍Comparing drinks is really a luxurious way to drink 😊and even more so with good friends........
Hi Maru 😃
Here's a picture of the annual toast of the Tochigi Prefectural Association 🤗I was so eager to drink that I realized later that I didn't take a picture 😫😅It was a fun event 🤗.
Hi Wakata 😃
I don't even know what it tastes like😅I went mainly for Tochigi sake, which I've never had before🤗It's fun to talk with a member who is at ease😊.
Hi Sashiu 😃
We were supposed to have a sake tasting championship at this fiesta and we were all excited to go out ‼️ but it was postponed 🥲 Mini Prefectural Party! It was fun 😊
Hi Jay & Nobby😄!
Cheers Festa 🥂That was fun 😆🎶.
We had plenty of time to drink in the daytime, and since it was outside, it was OK to make noise 🤭Higu & Nanoha were grateful to have a seat for you to sit down ☺️✨
The 11 Masamune🎊 that was talked about for a moment in a certain neighborhood.
I was home late every day and couldn't get into the topic, so I uploaded it here.
This is a bottle of sake that is good local sake ❗ and a bottle of sake that I am eager to put a sash on myself!
I had received a bottle at the beginning of the year and had half-neglected it because it was only a bottle, but I opened it because it was the only place I could find it 😁.
I've had it before and I know what it tastes like, but I'll have it 🍶.
The aroma is just like a dry sake!
But the mouthfeel is surprisingly sweet with a hint of rice, and it slowly finishes with a hint of alcohol.
I have never tried heating it up, but I think it would be delicious at room temperature 😃.
Good evening Yasusake-san, I laughed at your timeliness 😊 Thank you for your hard work until late every day. I've never had it so I'm going to visit the brewery next time!
Good evening, Nanoha-san!
You gave me a good opportunity, so I just opened it ❗
I'm not familiar with the Morito Sake Brewery, even though I'm supposed to be close to it myself 😓.
Please visit ☺👍.
Hi YasuSake 😃
The prefects were instantly 😆 excited about the story and quickly uploaded it! You have great energy 🤗.
The Dry Local Sake ‼️ you have to taste it once 👍
Hi YasuSake 😊Hello 😊Thanks for coming home late every day 😌and the buzz, for a moment 🤣Yamayato, I also found it in the eki-naka, but it is the dry local sake... 🤔It will be winter when you pick it up ♨️
Hi Jay & Nobby!
I'm not often able to respond to prefect stories right away, so okay, here I am! I opened it 😁.
I will check with the breweries in my prefecture to see if there are any that I haven't received yet 😃.
Hello, Kotori-san!
I'm tired of being flabbergasted day after day 😆.
It was too much for a moment and by the time I realized it was cold lol.
It's not as dry as I thought it would be, but I think I can enjoy it lukewarm? I think ❗
