It tastes better than the raw sake I had the other night!
It's made with Hitanishiki and rice malt from Ibaraki, but there was no Pure Ibaraki sticker.
Fear not, the convenience store at the nearest station that carries this and Raifuku (sometimes it's the opposite entrance).
I visited Ibaraki on my wife's business trip!
Of course, we made sure to visit the liquor store and the brewery 👀.
On the way home, we took the train to a sake shop in Mito station, where we had a chance to try a few single-serve items: 💁♂️
I met Morishima for the first time: ‼️
Bon appétit 🙏!
It has a clean sweetness and a clean finish.
The aftertaste is clean with a slight alcohol extension ✨.
It's a mature, well-balanced and delicious sake 🍶.
The woman sitting next to me is enjoying the beer without much attention because it's Sapporo Beer 🤭 lol
Good morning, hannah 😃.
Business trip flight 😄great 🚃Ibaraki sake sightseeing and drinking train 🚃 on the way back is great 🤗.
Neighbor beer 🍺 is certainly safe 😆.
Mr. Jay & Ms. Nobby
Good evening 🌉.
Your sister was tired because she had a blast from Sapporo Beer? and ☺️
Drinking iron...that's a great word!
I will use it next time 🚃🍶.
Fuji Taikan is sold by Morishima Sake Brewery, which brews Morishima, mainly for the Ibaraki Prefecture.
Taste-wise, it is quite similar to the first one I had today.
It was delicious.
According to the old man at the sake shop, this sake was brewed for the locals because Morishima has been out of the prefecture so much that it has become scarce locally. It is not as spectacular, but it is delicious!
Your first brand
Hm, Morishima Sake Brewery
Is this Morishima's brewery?
Fluffy
First touch
Umami and sweetness
It's good!
Oh, that's good!
It's like a swishy type.
Oh, man.
Here we go.
It's a good one. It's a good one.
Sake no Kotani 1,590 yen
Purchased at a liquor store in the neighboring Ichinoseki area.
It is a sake made in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture, so it is a coastal sake! It is a coastal sake.
I paired it with shime saba (mackerel) and yakitori (salt) according to the website!
This combination was very 👍,
I wondered what other dishes would go well with it...?
Very light and refreshing without any unnecessary sweetness ✨.
It's good as a food sake, but if you drink it by itself, it might be a bit of a pain 😅.
It has a concentrated flavor of rice and a pleasant sharpness that goes down the throat. It is a neat sake that is easy to match with meals.

SAKE MEETING 2025 Spring" will be held at Toride Station Building.
SAKE MEETING 2025 Spring" at Toride Station Building
18 sake breweries from Ibaraki Prefecture will be participating in the event.
The long-awaited event where you can enjoy new and treasured sake of spring!
I'll only give one review because it's a bit of a hassle.
Fuji Taikan Daiginjo Kasumi Sake
Yamadanishiki 40% polished rice
A must-have sake, a light nigori daiginjo for exhibition!
Fresh, slightly sweet and juicy!
You can feel the deliciousness of the rice with a clean aftertaste, and I was impressed that it is sure to win the Gold Award again this year!
Even though the price is expensive, it is very popular with people lining up to try it!
We also enjoyed rare sake such as Raifuku's Aizan Jun-Dai, aged for more than 10 years, and Matsumori Daigin To-bottle Nama-Nazarashu!
Above all, we enjoyed the happy time when we could meet the brewers who have finished brewing sake!
We gave up on our goal of completing the 18 breweries this year, but we have no regrets!
See you next time!
