It's been a while since I've been to Nokomi.
It's a new sake arabashiri 🍶.
The top aroma is fresh and sweet.
In the mouth, you can feel the youthfulness of new sake, chili shuwa🫧.
It has a refreshing sweetness with a slight sourness that finishes off the taste.
It was quite delicious 🍶✨️

Purchased as a souvenir from a trip to Kyushu.
It is a local sake from Kashima, Saga Prefecture.
It is a seasonal product and has a sweet and sour taste with a chiri-chiri-gassiness.
It was delicious. 🙆♂️

Another sake from Kashima was chosen. This is the first time for me.
This is also a modern type. The aroma comes in softly, but the core comes later. It goes well with cream cheese, too!
Yes, I'm staying in Hakata today😄.
★★★★☆ (4.5)
Brewed with a yeast that the 9th generation brewer developed himself while in college. This yeast was found in the Ariake Sea and produces a lot of malic acid (refreshing sourness). This sake is reminiscent of white wine with a harmony of sweetness and acidity.
It is refreshing from the aroma and has no habit of being refreshing all the way through to after drinking. Easy to drink.
We had it with white fish.
Sake series bought in Saga ④.
Nokomi Bloom🌸
A brand that you don't see much in Kanto but frequently in Saga 🍶.
Gorgeous and light, with a pretty pink label to match.
Kashima City is home to Yutoku Inari Shrine, one of the three largest Inari shrines in Japan, as well as a sake brewery street in the Hizen Hamajuku area ✨.
