Drank at an izakaya on a trip to Shiga.
It was a little sweet.
It is fine if you drink it by itself, but I had to drink it with grilled Akinatai fish, which was served as a side dish, so the timing was completely wrong....

コジコジ
Omi Tohei Junmai Shu Unpasteurized Sake (Masumoto Shuzo Brewery, Shiga)
Rice: Ginbukiyuki, 65% polished rice, 17% alcohol, manufactured 2025.7 (brewing year R5)
The aroma has a hint of alcohol and koji-derived nuances. The mouthfeel has a slight sense of maturity.
The mid-palate is dominated by umami and acidity, with a lingering aftertaste.
Overall, it is classic and somewhat robust.
Since the brewing year is R5, the sake was brewed before the end of June 2024 and stored for nearly a year in its raw state before being bottled.
This gives the impression of a mellowness and thickness.
Preferred Score: 6.0/10
Aroma: 1.0｜Mouthfeel: 1.0｜Medium: 1.0｜Final taste: 1.0｜Price: 2
This is an interesting bottle with an interesting "roundness in spite of being a nama-shu". I think I am gradually getting to know the expression of the aging process of nama-shu (laugh).

Sake from Higashiomi city, which was obtained through tax payment.
It is firm, dry, and has moderate acidity. It tastes similar to the Ojiro we had the other day. Personally, I would prefer it to be a little more square.

I went to pay a courtesy visit to the brewery, knowing that it was closed, but a family member happened to pass by, and the mother of the brewery went out of her way to open the brewery just for me! I took a commemorative photo with the brewer's mother and purchased a limited edition bottle.
Limited edition of 120 bottles!

The aroma is green apple. Taste is sourness, schwashiness and strawberry sweetness. Trolly texture too.
The alcohol content is as high as 17, so it feels powerful in the mouth.
When drunk on the rocks, the sourness stands out more than the sweetness.

Hello Harapekopeko33 😃
Omi Tohei, I don't see this brand at all in Tokyo, but I have no choice but to buy it when they open their store even though it's a holiday. ‼️
I'm sure you have a good memory of it: ✌️

3KAN4ON, yes, it's a godsend 🎵 The store you opened for us used to carry sweets and other items, but with the recent local sake boom, they have specialized in selling their own sake. It was great to hear such a spillover story!

I ordered a sake that had as much umami as Furoizumi at a store with a large selection of Japanese sake in Shiga.
It is lighter than Furoizumi, but it does have a lot of umami.
I now understand the greatness of Furoizumi.
