Third visit to a sake brewery!
This time we visited the Koganei Sake Brewery in the neighboring town of Atsugi!
Unfortunately, the sake that won GOLD in the Junmai Ginjo category at the SAKE COMPETITION 2025 was not available, so we chose a summery nama sake!
It was a delicious sake with a strong sense of maturity, with a rich sweetness that still had a strong sake-like flavor!
My favorite ★★★☆☆☆☆
Today is Sheng Masu.
I found one cup at the supermarket. It is quite dry.
I thought once again that it was a great accomplishment for a local brand that is easily familiar to the locals to win first place in the SAKE COMPETITION 2025 Junmai Daiginjo category Gold Prize🥇.
Karora quite SAKARIMASU
Junmai ginjo nama sake⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 12 degrees
The 8th kind of Yokohama Sake Fest.
The aroma is such that it seems as if apple acid yeast is used... 🥰.
It is a summer sake with a taste and aroma reminiscent of sweet white wine 😘😋.

Morimasu the other day. Junmai Daiginjo.
1st place 🥇 Gold Prize in the Junmai Daiginjo category at the SAKE COMPETITION 2025.
1st place 👏 out of 341 entries that completely hid the brand name.
Very tasty, but maybe I expected too much 😅.
However, I didn't chill it a bit enough and drank it at halfway temperature, not to warm it up. The cup was also a half-assed glass cup, maybe I lacked respect for the champion 🙇.
I have another bottle, so next time I would like to have it in good condition.
Yokohama Salmon Square (6)
Sunday's Sake Event at Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse (continued)
The sixth sake was Sakamasu.
This was also my first time drinking sake!
(I've never had this before, even in my hometown in Kanagawa.)
Morimasu KARORAKANARI
A summer sake in a stylish bottle?
This one tastes sweet and sour.
A little apricot.
Suddenly clear
Low alcohol 12 degrees, malic acid
Dangerous to go down smoothly 😋.
The color is not viscous and the appearance is clear.
There is little ginjo aroma, but there is a little acidity and umami. It has a full and rich flavor. The texture is smooth.
It can be enjoyed on its own, but it is even better with grilled fish.
Shrimp tempura zaru soba for lunch on a one-day trip to Odawara, with fish cake, etc.
Light and dry with a little sourness. A little good aroma. 😋😋😋😋
It goes well with soba noodles. This brewery won the first prize in the SAKE COMPETITION 2025 Junmai Daiginjo. You can feel the technical skill of the brewery.
If I have a chance, I would like to buy a bottle.

Sake from the neighboring town of Atsugi: Morimasu!
I always thought it was "Morimasu" but it was "Sakarasu"!
I had put it off because it's local and sold all over the place, but now I heard it won first place in the "SAKE competition"!
What? It was such a great sake! So I bought it at a local liquor store!
As the description says, it is slightly sweet, but soon after that, it turns dry!
I don't like spicy sake, but it's not bad! I can gobble it up!
Delicious!
But it's not fruity, and although it says "delicious in a wine glass", it's not that aromatic...?
Maybe I should buy a wine glass?
Today, I went to an autograph signing by Reichi Nakaiido, formerly of RC Succession! I went to Chavo's book signing and had a good time, so I opened a bottle of sake to congratulate him!
Good day!
Good evening, Miuraumi 🌆.
I also drank the special junmai for the first time today and it was quite delicious😊I would like to try the junmai daiginjo as well!
A sake from Kanagawa, where I live, took first place, so I definitely wanted to drink it and bought it.
It has a gorgeous aroma, followed by a refreshing sweetness, and then the characteristic Junmai Daiginjo rice flavor. It has a sour taste at the end.
Even though it is a junmai daiginjo, it was easy to drink.
Delicious.
