The fourth cup? Ishi no Kanbase, Ishi means stone, Kanbase means face, so who is this guy? I don't know.
The cloudy sake is actually very fruity♪ Juicy sweetness like pineapple, calm acidity, a lingering short bitter clean feeling, delicious and easy to drink!
For the second drink, I asked the owner for a recommendation on an out-of-prefecture sake✨.
When it came out, I asked him if it was Shizuoka, and he said it was Shimane. I asked him if it was Shizuoka and he said it was Shimane, which I completely misunderstood 💦.
This sake is from a sake brewery in Onsunzu-cho, Ota City.
This is embarrassing 😅 I went to Ota City in Shimane last fall to see it.
Polishing ratio 90
Alcohol content 17
100% Yamadanishiki produced in Sanbei Town
No additive yeast.
It has a dry taste with rice flavor, woody flavor, acidity, and punch.
It is truly dry.
It was a complete change from Miwazakura and had a classic and complex flavor typical of Shimane sake.
Next is Kaiharu's Namahashiroshi, Fire-ignited raw sake
Yamaguchi is the name of the master brewer.
It is written on the label in large letters, and the name is pushed to the forefront.
It is a 1BY sake, so it must have been aged for about 6 years, but there is no sense of maturity and it tastes beautiful!
I thought it would be more suited for warming sake, but it's also quite tasty cold.
I got the impression that it's a proper and delicious sake.
Honshu's best has arrived 😊 to Icoma-san.
I was able to drink the sake I purchased on my recent trip to Shimane and Hiroshima!
Sake purchased at Wakabayashi Sake Brewery in Kaiharu.
It looks like a quaint building that I would love to visit 😌.
I had an image of Kaiharu as a strong and peculiar sake, but this one has a fruity and modern quality.
I couldn't believe it was a +7 sake, but it had a sweetness to it that I really enjoyed 😋.
According to the internet, it's a local limited edition, unfiltered unpasteurized sake!
I thought it was unusual that they used Tsuyahime even though it's not from Yamagata!
Kaiharu Junmai Dry
I also chose this one!
Shimane Prefecture has a lot of sake 💦.
This one is a bit lower than the previous sakes at room temperature💦.
I went back to Shimane for a Buddhist memorial service and stocked up on a lot of Shimane sake.
Kaiharu is a sake from the hot spring town of Yunotsu.
This brewery's sake is spicy. Even though it is a fresh sake, it is spicy.
This time it was a new orikarami sake.
I don't really like nigori (a bitterness in sake), but a dry light nigori is different.
It is a good sake with Japanese food and ponzu.
This is a perfect food sake.
February 2: Setsubun - 1
Setsubun was on February 2 this year!
Tsubu family couldn't drink during the New Year's Eve and New Year's holidays
Dora is also getting into the spirit of drinking
Dora is also very enthusiastic 😎!
The first thing we opened was this!
Dora-chan wanted to try it because it looked so good!
The one we stocked up on: ☝️
Kaiharu Ishi no Face (Kanbase) ✨🥂✨
Made with Shimadai HA-11, a yeast from Shimane Prefecture.
Aromatic and refreshing sweetness.
What does "Ishi no Kanbase" mean?
Ishi" means Iwami region,
Kanbase" means "face.
Sour aroma
I wondered if it was sour...
Oh 🫢 it's sweet ♡♡♡♡♡♡!
A nice sweetness for those who like sweet sake
(Sake degree -12).
Sourness with a hint of koji!
This is addictive taste. ❣️
Mmmm delicious 😍😍!
