National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2⑭
Shizuoka ①.
Shizuoka Heiki Sake Brewery in Suruga-ku, Shizuoka City.
Moved to Okayama in 1967 but resumed sake brewing in Shizuoka in 2012; with about 100 koku, it is the smallest brewery in Shizuoka Prefecture
Even in Shizuoka, there are still only a few stores that sell it.
The brewery's staff was very helpful, and when I returned home I found out that he was the president and toji (master brewer). He is also the president of Heiki Brewery in Okayama and is still young in his 30s😳.
We drank
Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki Red
Polishing ratio 40% Yamadanishiki 16-17%, 3300 yen
This sake was made for a national sake competition. It is a fruity, rich and juicy type of sake, which is not typical of Shizuoka. When I mentioned this to the brewer, he told me that they use 1801 instead of Shizuoka yeast.
Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki Ao
Polishing ratio 40%, Yamadanishiki 16-17%, 3300 yen
This sake was made for the Shizuoka Prefecture's annual sake competition. This one uses Shizuoka yeast.
This Daiginjo is completely different from the previous one in that it is less assertive and more food-friendly. It tastes very Shizuoka-like.
Both bottles and labels have a luxurious feel, but at 3,300 yen, they were not as expensive as I thought they would be 😅I expected them to cost around 5,000 yen.
I was going to try the Kihei from Okayama, but forgot to go to the Okayama booth💦.

It was one of the most memorable flavors at the Shizuoka booth!

Kihei is known for its Omachi. This year's production is also good. It has the depth of Omachi, the sweetness of rice, and a fairly reasonable price.

Today I bought a bottle of Shizuoka sake. I saw it in the souvenir shop and bought it on a hunch, but it was a winner.
I like dry sake, but it is not sweet enough for me.
There are many delicious sakes in Shizuoka, I am happy and happy.

I found Kihei when I was in Hamamatsu. I had never met him, but he was my great-grandfather's name, so I bought it out of a sense of destiny. It was a gorgeous drink made with Omachi!

Business Trip to Shizuoka ㉒
I received a Kihei I bought at Sake-no-Yamaki 😀.
The aroma is fruity and apple-like 😊The taste is soft and sweet in the mouth, with a very good balance 😙The aftertaste is soft and bitter to the end 😇This is a delicious sake that is easy to pair with meals 🥳👍.
The fourth one is that I went to eat at Gohan-ya Sakura in Yui because the cherry shrimp fishing season opened over the weekend 🥰There was a 1.5 hour wait for in-store dining, but a 10 minute wait for takeout 🤩The seafood bowl was as good as the white shrimp from Toyama 😋.

Good morning, Maechen 😃.
I'm sure you don't have to wait 1.5 hours in the store for this takeout 🤗 I really want to enjoy this with a glass of local sake 🤗.
I'd love to taste both 😋!

Good morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀😀😀
It turned out to be a hybrid bowl of sakuraebi shirasu rice + tuna pickles 😊✨They separated the warm rice 🍚 and the biology tappa so it was served fresh 😍💕.

Kihei Kawazu Sakura Yeast Brewing
Kawazu cherry blossoms have finally bloomed✨
I looked at the line during my lunch break at work.
My wife asked me if I wanted to go see the cherry blossoms at night. I was so excited.
I took a quick shot along the river in Kawazu on my way home from work.
The sake we drank that day was
Kawazu Sakura yeast brewed sake: ✌️
It was not in the fridge, so I drank it cold.
The aroma is sweet and sour.
Subdued yet subtle sweetness.
Clean and moderate acidity.
Bitter aftertaste.
It was kept in the refrigerator while we went to see the cherry blossoms at night.
Though it is not well chilled,
I think it would be better if it were chilled
like the label on the back of the bottle.
It's like a white wine, so it tastes ✨

Good evening, Manta-san!
Watching the cherry blossoms at night with your wife is so beautiful and nice.

It's a rare sake 😲 and it looks very easy to drink and delicious 😲.

Good evening, ma-ki-san ^_^
Last year we went to Minami Izu to see the cherry blossoms at night, this year we went to Kawazu ✌️
If I'm going to see cherry blossoms, I wanted to have a sake associated with cherry blossoms 😊.
It has a bit of a quirk, but we enjoyed it with our meal✨.

Good evening, HinaHanaMama-san ^_^
The blooming of the cherry blossoms has been quite late this year, but they are finally in full bloom: ✌️
It was relatively warm when I went to see the cherry blossoms at night, but it is crazy cold today.

Good evening, Pon-chan ^_^
They bloomed beautifully again this year. ✌️
Cherry yeast sake is very rare, isn't it?
It looks like white wine, so I bought some cheese🧀 and drank it😊.

Jay & Nobby Good evening ^_^
I have been feeling the spring early. ✌️
I wonder if someiyoshino and other cherry trees will bloom around the end of March.
When they are in full bloom, I think I will walk with Fuku 😊.

なまころ
The slightly light flavor has a pleasant soft sweetness and a slight citrus acidity. It has a well-balanced taste and a high quality feel for the price.
I purchased a 300 ml bottle for 550 yen, but if the price of a 720 ml bottle were more than twice as much, it would probably be a much more cost-effective option.
I would like to try other sake from this brewer.

さとる
Purchased at a supermarket in Shizuoka City since it was not sold at the brewery.
A sake brewery that moved from Shizuoka to Okayama has made a comeback.
It has a good balance of sweetness and tangy spiciness at the moment of drinking.
