I didn't realize there was a Hachinohe Brewery and a Hachinohe Sake Brewery 😅 the next day at the liquor store.
I read it as "Jokuu". When I asked for "Nyokuu", the clerk had an expression of "? I asked for "Nyokuu" and the waiter? I came to Hachinohe yesterday, but all the stores where you can drink seafood and sake were either closed or full because of the Bon Festival.
The restaurant was called "Kei," a Western-style bar, but they had about 10 kinds of sake. Sake has taken root as a part of the culture.
I often see Mutsu Hachisen, but I tried this one, which is distributed locally.
The aroma is a bit of a good one, mixed with a hint of brewer's alcohol.
The sweetness and spiciness is dry and beautifully delicious 😋😋😋😋.
Goes well with sea squirts!
800 yen per set.
Heading to Aomori City today!
Brewery purchase
1945 yen / 720ml
The brewery is located in the city of Hachinohe.
It is a more prosperous town than I expected and I didn't know where to park my car, so I parked it dawdling in front of the store.
It is a direct sales place with a rich lineup to enjoy.
Fruity and sweet aroma.
It tastes like "unfiltered, raw, unfiltered sake".
Slightly effervescent, fresh fruit-like dark sweetness and acidity.
It is delicious.
Gin Kasuwasa🌾 in the sky
There are several sake rice varieties in Aomori, such as Hanafuki🌾, but only this Gin Karasu🌾 is suitable for growing in the Nanbu region (Pacific side of Aomori) where the climate is cooler due to the Yamase🍃.
The top aroma is softly sweet with a hint of rice.
In the mouth, there is a juicy sweetness of rice with a hint of acidity and umami.
It seems sweeter than most dry sake 🤔.
Among the Gin Karasu sake I've had so far, this sake is as good as Hato Masamune's White Dove 😊.
Limited edition sake for Hachishoku Sake Brewery.
The top clear alcohol alone is full of sweetness, bitterness, and acidity.
Yet, it has a lively and vibrant effervescence that makes it easy to drink.
When the ori is added, the robustness increases considerably, and the tanginess is muted, resulting in a more cohesive taste.
At first, I thought I might prefer only the supernatant, but once you get used to it, you can get used to it.
It goes really well with food.
I drank it all up in no time.

At Nanbu Moguri in Hachinohe, Japan.
Because it's fresh, it's very crisp and fizzy.
It has a firm taste.
It leaves a sharp taste in the mouth.
Goes great with food.

Hachinohe's summer nigori sake. Although it is nigori sake, the alcohol content is the same as regular sake at 15 degrees. It has a slightly peculiar aftertaste, which may or may not be to the liking of the drinker. I didn't like it.
（The aftertaste disappeared as I drank it, so my initial discomfort may have been my imagination. I felt a peculiar bitterness. It does not mean that it is not tasty.
White Bear in the Sky 🐻❄️
I guess it's been 2 years.
Hua Fuyuki🌾's sake 🍶.
The top aroma is softly sweet.
It has a deep sweet flavor on the palate.
Most of the seasonal sake with cute labels of Kisora are sweet and sour, but this year's is very sweet 🤔.
It was delicious 🐻❄️🧸
