Noge with high school classmates (2)
Next time, we'll drink something we've never had before.
Seisen
(It was on the menu, but not on the label, but it's from the Wakura Sake Brewery, so I guess so 😝)
This one was dry!
I imagine it's a refreshing sake for a meal.
Shaved wasabi sprinkled on the rolls 😱.
Wasabi, not parmigiano cheese!
It's a tingle in the nose 😖 Dry sake will go on!
Wakura Shuzo
Seisen St. Spring 13 Junmai Ginjyo Genshu
This brewery is located in Futtsu City, Chiba Prefecture.
The rice is polished to 55% "So-no-Mai" grown in Chiba Prefecture.
The alcohol content is slightly low at 13 degrees Celsius.
Gentle and fruity aroma, firm
and refreshing acidity.
The taste is well balanced with a refreshing acidity.
#Nihon-shu
I bought it at the roadside station Hoda Elementary School 🏫.
It tastes robust.
It has a cool design of a rising dragon by Hishikawa Shigenobu, since 2024 was the year of the dragon 🐉.
With delicious seafood from Boso 🐟✨ on a family trip at the beginning of the year.
The annual Kendo party with my kendo classmates. At my age, all we can talk about is our health 😄.
I hope we can drink good sake again next year with this group of people.
Purchased at the Hankyu Sake Brewer's Festival.
I was going to buy one of the Takeoka series, but there was a draft sake, so I tasted this one and bought it.
The brand name is Wazo, but I registered it as Seisen to make it easier to search.
According to the official website, this sake used to be sold under the brand name Shikanozan.
According to the official site, this sake is a draft sake.
It is fresh and slightly effervescent, though it has an aruze-like character.
Slightly fruity and sweet. Slightly acidic.
I would like to try some of the Takeoka series of nama-shu!

Wakura Sake Brewery
Futtsu City, Chiba Prefecture
This is also a souvenir from a trip to Chiba!
It is a sake for connoisseurs and its name is "Dori Shu". It is graceful.
The taste is definitely strong.
It went perfectly with the sushi I bought.
It was delicious!
The 22nd Hankyu Brewery Festival ①.
In the morning, I secretly observed my son's kendo promotion exam, where I happened to meet and talk with his teacher from junior high school. He has retired from teaching and is now coaching once a week as an outside coach. After more than 30 years, I could clearly feel the passage of time...
From noon, we participated in the Hankyu Kuramoto Festival.
Mr. bouken was here early, sorry for making you wait 🙏.
We soon met and greeted Usagigoten-san.
We started with a brewery that doesn't come to Kansai very often.
The Seisen and Takeoka booths.
Seisen Junmai-shu
A standard junmai sake with a slight sweetness, umami flavor and dry sharpness.
◉Seisen Akigari
A very good sake with a sharp aftertaste.
◉Seisen Junmai Ginjo
A little bit of alkalinity, but a crisp, clean dry taste.
◉Seisen St. Spring Junmai Ginjo Genshu
Low alcohol and slightly sweet. A little complex from start to finish.
The Seisen brand is a bit more dry than the one labeled with kanji characters.
The difference between the brands is that Seisen uses Chiba Prefecture's Fusa Kogane rice. Takeoka] uses rice from all over Japan.
Due to character limit, I posted this separately from Takeoka.
