A leisurely trip on the Tokaido Line using a Seishun 18 ticket. We stopped in Numazu and purchased a bottle at Matsuura Sake Brewery, located a short walk from the station. This local Numazu sake is made with water from Mt. Fuji and HONOFUJI from Shizuoka Prefecture. Despite the image of the classic label, it had a soft and mellow flavor.

Shizuoka Trip #42!
I bought a bottle of Hakuin Masamune at a local liquor store.
The aroma is mild, and in the mouth it has a delicious sweetness from the rice, with a refreshing acidity to balance it out.
I felt like it was a beautiful sake ✨.
You recommended it in "Dry for Dry Beginners".
Delicious! Kire! Shuppatsu!
Numazu is by the sea, so it goes well with seafood, but the flavor is crisp, so it goes with everything.
I'm sure that's true, no matter what you tell me! It's true that it goes well with deep-fried eggplant, too! It also goes well with taro buns!
Then we decided we wanted to add seafood, so we added more sashimi: kampachi/tuna/tai!
Sake and sashimi are the best! I agree!
The tuna is so fatty and delicious!
It goes well with the sweet fat of the kampachi! My personal best pairing!
By the way, when I paired it with tomato pickles, the sake disappeared.

Shizuoka 5
Takashima Sake Brewery in Numazu City
Some stores in Kansai sell this sake, but I haven't had a chance to drink it, so I decided to try it!
Polishing ratio 40%, Hyogo Yamadanishiki 16%, Sake degree +10, Acidity 1.2
Shizuoka yeast NEW-5 & Association No.11, 4950 yen.
It's a refreshing sake, but I thought it's suitable for warming even though it's junmai-dai in flavor.
The sake shop commented that it is a junmai daiginjo that can stand up to aging, which is great. Also, it's rare to find a junmai daiginjo with a sake degree of +10!
A refreshing summer sake. It goes down quite smoothly and can really be drunk like water. 100% Yamadanishiki from Naka Izu, 65% polished rice, 15% alcohol by volume.
