This is a unit work of three breweries in Joetsu: Katafune (Takeda Sake Brewery), Koshiji-no-Kenbai (Kubiki Shuzo), and Chiyonomitsu (Chiyonomitsu Sake Brewery). Kura-kept yeast, fresh yeast, and shibari. The proprietor introduced that there is a new trial in Niigata as well. Delicious! It starts with a light sweetness, followed by acidity and a sharp bitterness. This complexity is good. I couldn't take my eyes off of the sake from Joetsu. There is a recommendation from Takeda Shuzo on the back label, which is also interesting.

Koshiji-no-Kenbai Hiyoshi Rice polishing ratio 65 Alcohol content 16%. Rice: Gohyakumangoku, etc. On this day, a crab party was held with friends. There were a total of nine people from Tokyo, Hida Furukawa and Toyama. We had 7 four-packs and 1 one-pack of sake to save space in our fridge 😅. The first one was a hiyaoroshi from the Kubiki Shuzo brewery in Joetsu. The first one was Hiyoroshi from Kubiki Sake Brewery in Joetsu, Japan. It has a mature flavor from cold storage and was a good toast to start off the event. ✌️

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃. The bottom of Toyama Bay seems to have collapsed due to the Noto Peninsula earthquake on New Year's Day, and the crabs are still not caught. The fishmonger managed to procure some for us in time 😄 just no surface 🦀.

Echigo Kenshin SAKE Festival 2024 13 Kubiki Shuzo was in charge of this year's SAKE Festival limited edition sake. We were able to get in line a little after noon 😄. The sake we tasted was Hana to Yuki. It was a Junmai Daiginjyo, raw and hi-iru (hi-iri) 😋. Demonstration of dashimaki omelet. There was quite a line for this. Other than that, the limited edition mentshi from the meat shop was delicious. ✌️

Purchased at Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA When I tasted it, it seemed sweet and tasty, but the sweetness was moderate and the sake was fresh and juicy with a slight spicy gasiness. I thought it had more impact when I tasted it 🤔. I like the overall impression, but it seems much spicier than when I tasted it.

Tasting and sale of Niigata's local sake from Kashiwazaki, Niigata Prefecture. The first glass was a tasting of Koshiji-no-Kenbai Namaishu. It is made from 100% Hachitan-Nishiki No. 2 and has a milling ratio of 60%. It was so delicious that we decided to purchase it. It tastes good enough on its own, but I wonder if it would be better with saury as recommended. ☺️

10/12 at Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA Taste and buy what you like! Sake rice Gohyakumangoku, unfiltered, bottle-warmed, once-brewed. It starts with a sweet and sour aroma🍋. The fruity and sharp acidity spreads in the mouth. After that, the sweetness of rice comes in at once, and it is also delicious! The salivating acidity is what makes it even more delicious! The acidity is stimulating, but it's also mild, and it's good as a food sake ✨.

Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA④ Koshiji-no-Kenbai] booth. I had never heard of this brewery. It seems that they do not sell their sake in the Kansai region, and this time they only sold their sake at the event, and not even at department stores. It seems that their policy is to work only with specialty stores that will support them by explaining their sake properly, and now they have expanded to Aichi. They make only 300 koku. Standard. It is a standard junmai, unfiltered, bottle-warmed, and once-heated sake. It has a strong flavor with sweetness and umami of rice, but it also has a little acidity, which gives it a slightly sour taste. Junmai Ginjo Hachitan Nishiki Clear and refreshing with umami and bitterness. Kasumishu Junmai-Ginjo Nama-Nagara Sake Lightly cloudy. It has a sweet and bitter grapefruit flavor. It has a rich sweetness and a sharp bitter aftertaste. Usubeni Unfiltered Junmai Nama-Nagaroshu It is a limited edition or spring sake, fresh and fruity with a slightly bitter taste. The unfiltered type is selling well, and I thought it would sell well in Kansai as well, but the brewery might go out of business before it makes it over here...was I right to laugh at the joke 🤣.

Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA① I visited Niigata Sake-no-jin OSAKA held at Kintetsu Department Store! I went with Muchi again this time 😊. Last year it was held on a smaller scale at Yodobashi Umeda, but it was just a trial event. I am worried about next year's event because there were not many people even though it was on a Saturday... First of all, let's go to Kubiki Sake Brewery for the first time! We drank Usubeni Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake Fresh, sweet, juicy and delicious! Kasumishu Junmai Ginjyo Nama-genshu Sweet and slightly refreshing Junmai Unfiltered Gohyakumangoku Slightly dry and refreshing Junmai Ginjo Hachitan Nishiki Rich and sweet Overall impression of the brewery is sweet 🤔. They said they only wholesale to local sake stores that explain about their sake properly. He said there is a sake shop in Kansai that is interested in it. After I got home, I remembered that a liquor store in Izumisunagawa used to carry it, but they stopped updating their SNS and their official website disappeared, so I'm not sure what's going on. The brewer clearly said that there are no distributors in the Kansai region...
