Next up is the summer sake series.
They say, "If we start serving them this early, we will run out of sake before the hiyaoroshi season.
But if I see it, I will drink it. The label is beautiful.
Each sake brewery has its own unique characteristics and is delicious. It was fun to eat it with strong flavored side dishes. Namul and so on😊.
Toyoga is run by a couple, so I'm worried that they might quit due to succession issues. I have a fear that they will quit and I drink it when I find it. This blue label was also sold at Shinshu Kurado in Nagano station.
The last picture is a cat I saw in front of Nagano station. When I was staring at it, it said "You can take a picture with me" and left. 😅
Polishing ratio 70%, alcohol content 16%, Nagano C yeast
Not matching the gorgeous aroma, it has a thick sweetness and acidity typical of junmai. It is not too heavy as it finishes with a nice bitterness.

It has been a long time since I have had this sake at home. The rice difference of Junmai Ginjo of Toyoga 😊.
I bought this one at a supermarket in Suzaka on New Year's Day. Next to Obuse. This is the only time I've seen Toyoga in this color. It is not sold at Nagano station. The price is cheap. For local consumption?
Next, we tried "Hitogokochi" with a yellow label.
It is sweet and refreshing, just like the image of Hitogokochi. It is easy to drink, so I drank it by itself at the beginning and end of a meal.
I recommend comparing these two rice varieties, as it is easy to see the difference between them.

It has been a long time since we have had a home-drinker's comparison. The rice difference of Junmai Ginjo of Toyoga 😊.

We started with the purple labeled "Miyamanishiki".
It has a strong and bold taste. The sweetness came after that, and it was very drinkable. It was good as a food sake.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It's a small brewery, so it seems they don't carry much of it. However, the navy blue, green and orange labels are available at the sake shop at Nagano station 😊Nagano station, near near near 😆.
