Purchased at Icoma Sake Shop.
The owner said that Yukihikoyama was the best hiyaoroshi of all the hiyaoroshi in stock this season, and there were only a few left in stock, so I bought it.
It is slightly sweet, juicy, and has a withered ripeness.
It has a thicker flavor than I expected. It's great on its own, but I'm sure it will also work well in a meal.
Well, I had a good impression of it when I tasted it two years ago.
The spiciness and nuttiness become a little stronger as the temperature rises, so I recommend drinking it cold.
Drink it cold! The person who told me about this sake said that it tastes best when heated, so I drank it hot! I drank it hot because I don't know much about sake, but I prefer the smell of hot sake.
I don't know much about sake, but I prefer it hot. ☺️ It smells and tastes like nothing I've ever tasted before, and it's savory? I found the brown rice-ness to be a mystery. Interesting~!
The sixth glass of my first KEGDRAFT was Tsubozaka KEG DRAFT Sparkling13 from Tsubozaka Shuzo.
Let's start with the aroma.
First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel it is also very sweet and bitter.
It has more sweetness and bitterness than the nobility.
Overall, I felt it was a little sweet, but it is well balanced.
The second half of the aroma is also pleasant and tasty.
I'm in the middle of an offline post...
Sometimes with Hyogo sake
On the last day of Bon vacation, Yoohee and I went to Mystery Chi-ya, then we parted and I went to Kobe Hankyu...
Mr. Norimasa, the toji (master brewer), was there...
The ginjo aroma is very gorgeous and elegant. It has a high alcohol content, so it's very drinkable. The second half is spicy and sharp.
The spiciness increases as the temperature rises...
The specs of other breweries would cost more than 5,000 yen, but this one is in the 3,000 yen range!
The toji-san was also making a big appeal by quoting other breweries' sake 😁.
I think he said it's a sake to be presented at a sake competition 🤔.
The box is gorgeous and well made with a cushion on the bottom 😻
bouken, congratulations on 3500 check-ins 🎉Yes, you are a local who loves his hometown 🤗3500 reviews is a big record, even Otani is surprised 😆 You are a super legend 🏆️
Thank you, Neemuchi 🙇 I thought it would be nice to show some local love once in a while 😁.
I think I need to show my love for my hometown once in a while 😁.
There are still many people with more CIs than me, so I'm afraid I'll get angry if I compare myself to Otani-san 😱.
Thanks Ponchan 🙇.
I believe they said it was a sake that was entered in a competition 😳
It tasted like the kind of sake you would drink on New Year's or a happy occasion 😋.
I hope this review is helpful 🥺.
Congratulations to bouken on his 3500 check-ins: ㊗️🎉!
You've been checking in at an unbelievable speed 😳What's amazing is that you're so fast and yet you remember so much about sake: ☝️
A living legend!
Thank you Maru 🙏.
The pace is exploding with the event participation😅.
I'm taking notes while drinking, so if I didn't take notes, I'll just have to write it down from my imagination 🤣.
Congratulations bouken on your 3500 check-ins ㊗️🎉🎉🎉!
It's 50-50 in the Salmon River world 👏!
Yukihikoyama, 35% polished rice, in the 3000 yen range, gorgeous and drinkable... 😳
Check it out✅🫡.
Congratulations to bouken on his 3,500 check-ins 🍾.
I wish I had followed you after that 💦.
The box is gorgeous and I thought it would be a nice souvenir for my parents 💡.
Thank you, Mr. Yoohee 🙇.
I believe you met up with your wife after the mystery chi-ya and went home?
I've never seen such a gorgeous sake in a paper box even if it costs more than 5000 yen 😳
Purchased at a local sake dealer nearby.
It was the last bottle of summer sake, so I reflexively bought it. Sake from Himeji
It's still hot like mid-summer, so it has just the right refreshing feeling.
I thought it was almost the end of sake to be served chilled, but I hesitated to switch to heated sake.
This is the second of three bottles purchased at Tsubozaka Shuzo. This sake is made with flower yeast.
Very easy to drink and easy to pair with both strong and western style meals. Tastes even better than I imagined💕.
Stayed at Yumenoian Yuyake Koyake. On the way home, I stopped by the sake brewery to buy a bottle of Daiginjo, the first of three I bought. This is my favorite 😄 Very rich and tasty.
The second cup was Yukihikoyama, which is apparently a rice called Benkei, which was the ace sake rice 100 years ago.
This is a great easy drinker. It has a refreshing aroma with a slight green tinge.
The picture on the label is also very nice.
After leaving Mystery Chi-Ya, I left Mr. Yoohee and went to Kobe Hankyu.
There was a tasting and sale of Yukihikosan, so we went there.
I drank
Yume Nadeshiko Junmai Ginjyo Nama Shu
Sake made with Nadeshiko yeast!
I didn't take a picture of it because I drank it at home in the past.
I think it's the sweetest sake at Yukihikoyama.
Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake
I drank this one in the past, so I didn't take a picture.
I was told that many men like this one.
It's not as sweet as Yume Nadeshiko, but I like it because it's a sweet-ish type of umami taste 😋.
Tsubosaka Trial 6th wine yeast brewing
A challenge sake brewed with wine yeast and low alcohol content.
Sweet and sour or sour and a bit peculiar 🤔I was going to buy this one but 😅
Oni Shin Shin Junmai
Forgot to take a picture💦.
It's a very dry sake with a sake strength of +15, but it doesn't feel as spicy as it says and is easy to drink!
Yamahai Junmai
Less harsh than wine yeast, but more acidic.
Yobou Hyakunen Yamahai Junmai
Sake made with Benkei. Slightly sweet and refreshing.
Daiginjo
Polished to 35% but very cosy at 3,300 yen.
It is not usually sold outside of the brewery, so buy this one!
I came here to drink it because Mr. Icoma said he doesn't sell wine yeast! I told him I'd be mad if he didn't. 🤣
