Celebrating the 10th Anniversary! The "Yamakawa Mitsuo" project is a joint brewing project by four volunteer breweries in Yamagata Prefecture. This year is Mitsuo Yamakawa's 10th anniversary year, and he will continue to pursue interesting things at his own pace without getting carried away. It has a fruity flavor with a fresh muscat aroma and a light acidity that stands out. It has a crisp, fresh finish with a clean mouthfeel.

The theme for 2024 is "timeless sake brewing," and Mitsuo Yamakawa will travel back and forth between different eras. Otokoyama Shuzo, the brewery in charge of this year's brewing, will focus on 1998, the last year of the tenure of Shiro Sasaki, the Nanbu Touji who decided the direction of the brewery, and brew this sake by faithfully reproducing as much as possible the methods used by Touji Sasaki in the past, while the way of sake brewing has changed with time. The rice used is Yamagata Prefecture's sake rice, "Dewa Sanzu. It is the most familiar rice with a characteristic that stands out for its high whiteness, clean taste, and softness, and the sake was dry, aroma-less, elegant, and honest, just as Touji Sasaki likes it.

I found Yamakawa Mitsuo in the next town ❗This is my first time drinking it👍It is brewed at Kojima Sohonten, isn't it? I guess they brew at 4 different breweries each time 🤔. I thought it would have a spectacular sweet flavor for a sake from the ginjo kingdom of Yamagata, but it has a gentle umami flavor that is perfect for eating. ‼️ I thought it would be a little too flashy from the label 😅. I'm sure it's a great attempt to bring together the wisdom of 4 breweries to brew sake! Great experiment ✨. I went to Yamaoka and was going to order the special miso, but they were selling a limited edition G-style (gutsy) special bean sprout miso, so I switched: ‼️ But it's good 😉.

Hello Noodle Sake King 😃I thought I was the one who posted the first special bean sprout miso post! You are indeed the one who calls himself the King! Mitsuo Yamakawa is interesting in his attempts, isn't he?

Good evening, Mr. King of Noodle Wine 🌛. Congratulations on your first "Mitsuo YAMAKAWA" 🎉. Seeing the Yamaoka family after a night of drinking is very destructive and stimulates my ramen craving 😁. I'm going to eat [Kinchan Noodle] which I see a lot in western Japan 🤔.

Hi, Hanapin 😃 Chashu toppings are a must and customization is what Yamaokaya is all about 😁. The special miso because of the limited time offerings, the soy sauce and pre-pork that we sometimes go for are so good ‼️ this chain never stops 😋!
