Sawa-hime is so delicious that I'm going to name the cat I picked up on Monday "Sawa," and since it's my fifth cat, I'm going to use the Chinese character "Gowa.
During a recent tour of Tochigi sake breweries, my husband, who was in charge of tasting, raved about Inoue Seikichi Shoten's Sawahime. It is indeed delicious. With wasabi cream cheese!
Tochigi Ai🥰 in the first of December
You can buy Sawahime in the neighborhood, but this one was limited to 120 bottles at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival, so I tasted it and bought it!
It's very effervescent. It's dry, complex, and has many different flavors. It is sweet but unique.
Rich and powerful sake.
I think there's a very slight glimpse of a perverted sake 🫶.
Good evening, bouken 😃.
Thank you for your early Tochigi love 🥰 from November rush to early December 😊.
I guess you can tell that because you drink a lot of Sawahime 😁.
The 23rd Hankyu Brewery Festival (3)
Sawahime-san, who has become a familiar face at the Sake Brewer's Festival
The president of Sawahime-san was there!
We drank
Daiginjo Shin Jizake Manifesto
Brilliant and fruity. I've had it before, but it's still delicious!
Special Junmai Shiboritate Nama-nihonshu
This is a sake I missed out on last year at Icoma.
Personally, I think it's a little subtle because it's refreshing and has little sweetness.
I heard that Icosa will have it in stock again this year, so I'm considering drinking it again to make sure 🤔.
Sawahime Junmai Daiginjo
I felt it was sweeter than the Daiginjo.
I've had Jun Dai and Daiginjo in the past, but I thought it was consistently delicious!
Here we purchased a Junmai Ginjo Premium Slightly Sparkling Oragami Nama Sake, which is a test brew and limited to 120 bottles!
I wanted to buy some other sake, so I left the brewery festival this time 😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌃
The liquor store said it's delicious and they want a little more recognition 🥺.
Tochigi love 🥰 for the second time in November drinking outside.
We had Tochigi love 🥰 at home after this 🥳.
Inoue Seikichi Shoten
Sawa Hime Hitogokochi Junmai Ginjyo Nama-Nagara Sake
The brewery is located in Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture.
Hitogochochi" produced in Tochigi prefecture is 50% polished rice.
Sweet and fruity aroma, mellow
The taste of rice is mellow and full-bodied, with a sharp, full-bodied finish.
A sweet, fruity aroma, full-bodied rice flavor, and a crisp, full-bodied aftertaste.
#Sake
I went to Nikko today 🍁.
We hiked and bought this as a souvenir ✨.
I usually go to sake shops and buy sake rather than souvenir shops at tourist spots, but there were so many handwritten notes on the sake at the souvenir shop that I wanted to buy all the sake on display as I read them 🤭 lol
Only one of them didn't have a note lol.
Sawahime no Hiyoroshi ‼️
Just "hiyaoroshi" on the label is enough for me 🥰.
Unlike its appearance, it's refreshingly dry and easy to drink 🍶.
It's calm and delicious with a hint of umami 😋.
Good evening Rambo 😃.
Tochigi sake from Nikko hiking 🏞️ 🍶3 in a row ‼️ is wonderful 🤗.
I'd like to see your souvenir shop's sake note 📝😁Sawahime hiyaoroshi! Yes, it could be a bottle you can safely buy without a note 👍.
Thanks for your comment, Jay & Nobby 😊.
Sake from Tochigi is delicious ✨.
Sawahime is a safe bet 😁.
I'm planning to visit Nasu again, so maybe I'll set up a sake schedule 🍶 lol
