At first you can feel the schwartziness.
Slightly sweet, with a fresh grapefruit-like aroma. As you drink it, the fresh acidity and the aroma of rice spreads. 4 stars

This sake is from Hirado, Nagasaki Prefecture. When we looked into it, we found that it has been in business for quite a long time, since the time of Tsunayoshi.
In recent years, they have won awards at Kura Master and introduced thermal tanks. Yes, there is no way they could suddenly produce such a delicious sake.
Slightly bubbly, clear and mineral! It was delicious 😋.
Oh no, now I have to have another one 😆.
I was invited to participate in the Tochigi Prefectural Citizens' Association yesterday 😄I'm grateful to have been invited 😊.
I was invited to the Tochigi Prefectural Meeting after work, but everyone welcomed me warmly.
Well, I started with Fukkai. I had drunk it before and enjoyed it. When I drank it, I felt the sweetness was a little strong, probably because it was at room temperature. After that, there was a strong aftertaste with umami. I felt it was a little thick. It is still delicious 😄.
Good evening, Mr. Sashiu😄.
It was a pleasure to talk with you. I was happy to hear you share my thoughts on the topic of rain ☔ in Sendai Nishi Park 😆.
It's great that you were able to review each sake well in that situation ❗️ I almost don't remember myself 🤣.
Hello, Sashiu-san 🐥.
Thank you so much for coming to our party after work with your hand-me-downs 🤗It was another lively party 🤗We had a lot of fun 🤭The ramen noodles the next day and the early series of the party, it was a quintessential 👍🏻
Good evening, Hiro-san😄Thank you so much for your help the other day! It was nice to talk with you, Hiro-san. It really rains at the sake events in West Park (lol) I write this with a heaping helping of what I only slightly remember (lol).
Good evening, Kotori-san😄I look forward to this event every time, so of course I'm happy to participate. It was fun again this time, wasn't it? The ramen was delicious.
Good evening, Mr. Sashu 😄♪
I think you and Kotori made a mistake 🤭.
Thank you so much for coming from far away to join us every time ☺️ and thank you so much for coming to eat Sano Ramen🍜 and souvenirs🥰.
Good evening, Tsubu 😄 I just fixed it... sorry about that. It was a really fun time! I would love to attend again. I'll be back to eat Sano Ramen again then😄.
Hi Sashiu 😃
Thank you very much for coming from far away again! Thank you very much 😌It was great to see you working so energetically not only that day but also the next day 👍I'm curious to know what you got at the Kamioka Sake Shop!
Jay & Nobby Good evening😄No problem. I am very much looking forward to participating in this event every time! I was able to fully enjoy the next day as well since I came all the way to Tochigi. We will be posting shortly.
Very nice aroma of ripe bananas and muscat 🤤.
The mouthfeel is indeed sparkling ‼️
The ultra-fine bubbles fill the mouth with a mellow and stimulating sensation 😋.
It is very clear and dry, with a maximum of refreshment. ‼️
This is one of those dangerous tastes that you can't stop drinking in the hot summer 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤.
National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2㉟
Nagasaki 2②.
Fukuda Sake Brewery in Hirado City
I've had Fukuda a few times, but this was my first time to try Fukkai!
I have the impression that the distributors are also narrowing down the number of stores from the days of Fukuda, so I guess it's harder to buy 🤔.
Polishing ratio undisclosed, Reihou 14%, 1,750 yen
It's fire-brewed but fresh. Dry and light. A little minerality. Not too sweet, but a trendy sake quality.
Personally, I think it was better when it was made by Fukuda...
I like a sake called "Fukkai" too much.
I came from Tokyo to visit the brewery in Hirado, Nagasaki Prefecture.
We had a special connection and today, with the 15th generation brewer of Fukuda Sake Brewery
He took us on a sightseeing drive.
We had a great time talking about sake for hours.
After learning about the roots of sake
After learning about the roots of sake, drinking Fukkai was exceptional!
Not too sweet, not too floral, not too dry, but just the right amount of sharpness... that's what makes Fukkai so special!
For some reason, I had never been associated with Fukkai before.
It is fresh, clear, and delicious with a refreshing acidity.
Even though it is fire-aged, it has a freshness that is typical of nama-zake, and the aftertaste is very sharp!
This is a bottle that can be enjoyed by all.
I opened a bottle of this brand that I bought in early spring🍶! (*^^*) Easy to drink, sweet mouthfeel, with a sake feel at the end. The balance is very good and I think it goes well with everything except sashimi 🌝.
Fukkai-like goodness!
Grapefruity.
It's just a matter of taste, but I would have liked it better if it wasn't sparkling.
It was nice and summery, though!
