Visit the Inoue Sake Brewery to Purchase
A product that is the result of the passion of Mr. Yuri, the toji (master brewer), and all the employees who love sake brewing!
It is a wonderful sake that is both polite and powerful.
On October 9, Inoue Sake Brewery had a stall at an event in nearby Matsubara Park. The toji (master brewer) and president, Mr. Yuri Inoue himself was there, so I bought a bottle of this sake while listening to his story. It is not cheap for a junmai sake (2200 yen), but it has a rich rice flavor and elegant acidity, and the sake degree is -6.8. I would never have bought it if I had only seen the number, but I was impressed once again by the richness and depth of sake variations, and I knew I had to try it to understand. It was delicious!
Ears of rice swaying in the wind, illuminated by the gentle evening sun. The mellow aroma and sweetness of the rice passes down your throat, and then disappears so quickly that you feel it is fleeting.
Slightly yellowish.
Sweet aroma of mango and passion fruit.
Sharp acidity. Firm body coupled with burnt nuances and a fairly low center of gravity.
Coolness on the finish.
It gives the impression of being a man's sake, perhaps due to Hita's hard water. It is not a trendy type of sake, but this kind of austere sake is necessary.
Yamadanishiki ver.
Compared to Omachi's lees sake, it is slightly more lees and has a 1% lower alcohol content (17%). The bottle size is also changed from 500ml for Omachi to No. 4.
The aroma is like rice itself and rice malt.
The pure sweetness that is typical of Yamadanishiki passes through the nostrils with a slightly thick texture, and there is a slight bitterness that seeps into the tongue. A slight bitterness seeps into the tongue and a tangy sourness on the tip of the tongue.
The taste that spreads in multiple directions in the mouth is like a rocket firework. As the day goes by, the acidity will become more rounded and a sense of unity will emerge.
Souvenirs from Oita
This one was also recommended by a liquor store, so we bought it.
It has a moderately good aroma, slightly sweet and mellow taste.
It was not that heavy, and I quite liked it.
Sake from Hita, Oita Prefecture
A crisp, dry sake, rare in Oita?
Goes well with sashimi!
I'd like to go there sometime soon, as it's walking distance from the station.
Thank you for the food.

Happy New Year to everyone at Sake no Wa! We had a lot of Kamoshiki in the New Year.
Now, I've got the new yuri-brewed sake.
As soon as you put it in your mouth, the smoky, rich sweetness spreads. The heavy sweetness typical of Omachi is nicely combined with citrus acidity, and you can feel the flavor in the air that escapes from the nose.
When the lees are involved, the acidity asserts itself from the beginning, increasing the sharpness and making it easy to drink. As the temperature rises, a slight lingering bitterness is added, and the cup continues to flow.
This season's yuri-brewed sake is also undoubtedly delicious, and I think its character has been refined since last year.
It is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake with an Alc. of 18 degrees, so if you pace yourself wrongly, you will quickly go under.
Nonosan ❗ It's been a great year ⤴️⤴️!
I was wondering what this sake wrapped in newspaper was~❔, and then I realized it was yuri-shibori 🎶.
I want to drink this new sake ❗ ⤴
Rika, it's nice to meet you too😊.
I knew you would have a reaction!
I think this was sold at a sales event at a local department store (I'm guessing because it was a gift).
I'm sure you'll get a reaction from me!
It's from a sake brewery in the neighboring prefecture of Oita, also in Hita, but we don't see yuri-bukkomi in Fukuoka 😆 I wish it was available in Fukuoka too ⤴️.
I always buy it at the Asahi Souzou Sake Shop in Hita Mameda Town 🎵I wonder if they still have new sake!
It was sold out at Inoue Shuzo's online store, but it may still be available at liquor stores in the area.
I'll let you know in the comments when it's newly released.

Yeah, I know 😆.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to afford the shipping and the cooled delivery.
I was thinking of ordering two of the same size if Nono bought them, but ....
I'll have to think about it some more.
I'll have to think about how to balance my pocketbook with the future releases of alcoholic beverages I want 😆.
If Corona isn't in vogue, I'll go to Hita and bring it back with me 😆.
I'll have to think about it some more lol
First time! This is Mr. Kakunoi.
I bought it at a sake shop. It was recommended to me.
It was so fruity and delicious that I couldn't stop drinking it.
It was so good that I became a fan of Kakunoi.
Shinsuke ✨I love lily stocking too 🎶it's delicious but not widely available so it's a shame it's hard to get the word out to everyone 😅.
I'm happy to share the deliciousness💕.
This is a sake from Hita City in Oita Prefecture.
Hita is located on the border with Fukuoka.
In the Edo period, it was a tenryo, and the streets and old buildings from that time remain, and it is a great town for a walk🎵.
It's easy to go on a day trip and have fun, so I often go out🚙
The last time I went there, I came across a yuri-jikomi that was delicious.
⤴️This time, I'd like to try autumnal 🍁️.
A modest amount of sweet and sourness
The sourness lasts for a while, then it becomes slightly spicy.
A bit of bitterness and astringency, and then it's all over 😆 .
So many different flavors in one bite😲!
The complex taste is very interesting and makes you want to drink it one after another 😂.
The astringency of sake is also quite nice 😍.
It's not glamorous but it's delicious🎵!
I like it💕💕.
Oh yeah, the water they served at the Hita Yakisoba restaurant I went to for lunch was really good ✨.
This sake tasted just like that water❕😲
Hi Rika, good evening 😃🌃💖
I too love a drink with a bitter taste at the end💓
I love that Rika's choice of alcohol is self-directed and not driven by the people around her 😆💕.
But this one is just too minor lol 😂.
Good evening.
Yuri-jikomi is delicious, isn't it!
It has a high alcohol content, but it's so gorgeous that you don't feel it.
It looks like they're making Omachi rice in their own rice paddies now, so I'm looking forward to the new sake!
Good evening 😆.
Although I'm not very familiar with Kyushu's sake.
I've never seen this brand before😅.
I thought it was a flower yeast when I heard it was brewed with lilies. I thought it was.
but it's not at all lol
Haruei Chichi, this sake seems to be made only in small quantities😅.
I wonder if you can only buy it in Hita~?
If you ever get the chance to visit Hita, give it a try💕.
Maa. 😆 I'm the kind of person who's satisfied with new knowledge about sake, people, breweries and local stories together😅.
So I buy the sake I find when I'm out and about, so I end up with a lot of minor sake 🤣.
Nono-san ❗ Someone understands me 😂😂🎶I'm super happy 🙌🎊
❕Right❕They're so delicious!❤️I can't stop drinking them 😆!
I wonder if the new sake is good too 🎵Next time I want to visit a sake brewery ⤴️
I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot of them in the marketplace.
It says on the back label that they only make 200 kilos, so I guess it's not widely available 💡.
Nono-san ❗ Yes, there was a way to pop it 😆.
I took a look at your online store✨.
I'm sure there are many other types of lily jars 🎵 but they were all sold out 😅.
