Slightly dry and mellow type of sake. It is one of Shikizakura's representative brands.
Characterized by its subtle ginjo aroma and rich flavor, it is also recognized by the gourmet manga "Mami-shinbo".

Papagon Purchased at the 22nd Hankyu Brewer's Festival.
The inside of the glass is like cooked rice.
Slightly good aroma 😄.
When you put it in your mouth
A little bitterness and a little bitterness along with umami.
It's not strong but it's pale at first,
The acidity is not strong, but it's pale at first, and then it spreads out.
I was surprised at the acidity,
It lingers in the mouth, lingering in the stomach.
It leaves a lingering aftertaste 😄.
But it's not too harsh,
It is very pleasant and addictive 😋.
When you enjoy it in the evening when it's easier to spend time
I can drink more and more without even knowing it 😊.
Delicious 😆 Thank you 😋😋.
Good morning, Papagon 😃.
A review that flows from the aroma of freshly cooked rice to the bite in your stomach 😚 I felt like I was drinking with you 😌 only it's still morning 😆.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby😄.
When I saw this in the morning, I wanted to relax,
I can't wait to go to work 😄.
Review after the last few days.
It's delicious.
I couldn't waste time recording it 😋.
It happened yesterday, but I was on a one-day trip to Tochigi with a friend!
Spacia X, Kinugawa Onsen, Nikko Maitake mushrooms, Utsunomiya Gyoza.... Except for the new Spacia, we have been going to Tochigi for more than 10 years and have eaten there for more than 10 years, so we feel safe and close to my parents' house 😌.
This time, I had a glass of "Shikizakura" with Utsunomiya Gyoza.
It has a sweet aroma reminiscent of sugarcane. The palate is clean and slightly sweet, as is typical of a honjozo sake. The juicy flavor of the gyoza bean paste is in tune with the flavor of the gyoza, making it a perfect match!
It also resets the fat at the same time, making it an excellent potential accompaniment for gyoza👍.
It was a pity that the rock bath in Kinugawa Park was closed, but the conductor came to our private room to take our picture, which warmed our hearts and souls!
Next time will be next year, but we will be back ✨
Hi stst, good evening.
Nice day trip with your friend ✨.
Spacia X looks cool ⤴️
I've never been to Tochigi prefecture, so I suddenly want to visit 🚃.
A plate of Utsunomiya Gyoza is also good 🥟.
Good evening, ma-ki!
Besides the famous "Senkou" and "Houou Mita," there are many other delicious local sake brands, as well as gourmet restaurants and hot springs that go well with the sake, making it a great place to spend a relaxing time!
Please visit 🙂↕️
Hi stst 😃.
Welcome again to Tochigi 🤗You have a nice course 👍We tend to go for beer 🍺 with gyoza🥟😅I love the way you combine it with Shikizakura no Yubuna! I'm learning from you 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
Of course we went with "Gyoza Roman" beer at the opening ceremony.
The Tochigi sake, including Shikizakura, was consistently delicious, but I was most impressed by the spirit of Utsunomiya in making a beer that goes well with gyoza...!
Sake purchased at the brewery festival.
Probably the first and last home drinking Tochigi Ai🥰 in September.
I've had it at events and outings, but this is my first time drinking Shikizakura at home. It's fresh, sweet, umami, and spicy. Basically, the taste is mainly spicy.
As the temperature rises, the spiciness diminishes and the acidity becomes more pronounced.
I tried the fugu beaver.
As it says "fugu sashimi flavor", it tasted like grated red leaves and ponzu vinegar 🤣I can't taste the fugu 😅.
Good morning, bouken 😃.
Thank you for your September Tochigi love 🥰 letter ✉️ 🤗Kochira Shikizakura! We had it on the rocks last year too 😚.
Fugu Sashimi Taste 😆My name is right, it's called "Momiji Oroshi & Ponzu Taste" 😁.
Hello bouken 🐦.
The name of the rice is wonderful 🌟I would like to try the sake of this rice as I have not tasted it yet!
Fugu flavor, I had it too, but I only recognized the 🍁 grated 🤣.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌃
Tochigi love for September 🥰 sorry for the delay😅.
I tried it on the rocks after your comment😊.
It was better than cold sake without being too thin 😋.
Pon-chan, good evening 🌃
I like the Tochigi star, I feel like the developer's wish is put into it 😊.
I thought "Are you sure you used torafugu? I thought 🤣.
Sake rice: Tochigi no Hoshi (rice rice)
A full-bodied flavor with a sweetness that is not overpowering.
A little tangy and bitter.
Aroma: Rumney type?
Good, good, good 😋.

Shikizakura] booth.
Tochigi Ai for the 3rd consecutive time 🤗💕.
This one is often in the department store, so I wonder if they often do tastings.
This time, Toji Shohei Imai and his wife were there to serve us.
◉Shikizakura Tochigi no Hoshi Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake
This sake is made from rice, Tochigi-no-Hoshi. When I drank it before, I thought the hi-iru flavor was not my favorite type of sake, but bouken-san said, "You have to try the raw one! So we tasted it. It is delicious, with a strong sweetness and depth.
◉Shikizakura Tochigi no Hoshi
The first sake was a bit bitter, but not as good as the raw version. I was surprised at how different it was from the raw version...it was completely different.
◉Shikizakura Namahashime Tokubetsu Junmai Sake
A clean and gentle sake, with a very easy drinking style, without being too acidic. It is not too sour or lactic, and has a slightly spicy aftertaste.
◉Shikizakura Tokubetsu Junmai Autumn Hiyoroshi
A very nice sake, with a strong umami flavor.
The 22nd Hankyu Brewery Festival (6)
Ai Tochigi 🥰 even at the tasting ③.
I have the impression that Shikizakura has been a frequent visitor to Hankyu since last year's "Traveling SAKE".
Mr. Shohei Imai, the master brewer, and his wife, who is in charge of sales, were there!
We drank
Tochigi no Hoshi Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake
A raw version of the hi-ire sake we had before.
It was fresh, sweet and delicious.
Tochigi no Hoshi Junmai Sake
I also tried the hi-ire version to check the taste. As before, there was something strange about the taste, and it was not good.... I was surprised at the difference in impression between the raw and the hi-ire.
Junmai Ginjo Y.S. Nama Sake
It tasted nuttier than the previous tasting.
Nama Hashiroshi Tokubetsu Junmai
Not too much like a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast, easy to drink
Shikizakura Autumn Special Junmai Hiyaoroshi
Easy to drink without a sense of maturity.
I bought the first bottle I tasted because I always feel bad for not buying it after tasting it 😊.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌃
I'm sorry I haven't bought it until now even though I saw it and tasted it 😅.
This is my first purchase and I'm looking forward to drinking it😊.
