For the record. Sake purchased on a trip to Hiroshima ❸.
It was a delicious sake with an easy-to-drink dry taste that you could drink as much as you wanted.

Kokusai Sake Fair 2025(*)
The children's illustrations are so cute!
The delicate flavor is bold and robust.
It looks light, but it's a solid sake that you want to keep drinking!
Are there many good sakes in Hiroshima?
I enjoyed drinking a variety of sakes that I didn't know existed, and many of them had both individuality and goodness!

ZuikanクローバーLeG-爽酵母12％純米吟醸原酒
さけざん
A bottle bought at the brewery
Please drink it well chilled.
Not because it says so, but because the sake temperature is 9 degrees Celsius.
The aroma is not strong but fresh like young grass.
There is a slight nutty aroma on the palate.
The mouthfeel is light, with a citrus-like acidity that spreads but is not strong.
The lingering acidity lingers for quite a while, which is also good.
Mr. Yamaoka's main taste is sake that has been aged for a long time.
How about a low-alcohol sake (❗️), so I bought it!
Well, this one is good, too!
I bought 300 bottles to save money, but I should have bought a four-pack!
I finished it in no time!

The last one is Zuikan from Miyoshi.
This is a light and dry sake that goes down smoothly.
We had a lot of delicious food from Hiroshima, such as raw oysters, kone, and senji meat!
It was the best 😆.

Zuikan純米酒 超辛口山田錦中汲み 生
さけざん
The last Zuikan is in the process of aging.
but it's brewed in 2023, so it's been sitting for 2 years.
Sake temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius.
The aroma is not strong.
Maybe a hint of milkiness. It's a bit milky.
The mouthfeel is refreshing.
But it is not as rounded as the 5 year old, and this one has more sharpness.
Anyway, it is easy to drink, and since it has no sourness or old sake-like aroma, it can be paired with many different kinds of food.
Of course, it is also delicious on its own.

さけざん
On our way to visit the dam, we stopped by Yamaoka Sake Brewery!
There were many kinds of sake in the fridge, so I asked the brewery staff about their standard sake, and they recommended this brand!
He said it is often served at izakayas (Japanese-style pubs) in Fukuyama City!
Yamaoka's sake is often aged, and this one was also aged for 3 years!
Sake temperature is 9 degrees Celsius. The aroma is like that of old sake, followed by a spicy aroma.
The mouthfeel is refreshing but soft, with no aftertaste - it has a sharpness to it.
As it is a super dry sake, I thought it might have acidity, but I didn't feel it. It is very easy to drink.
At room temperature (20 degrees Celsius), some acidity remains, but not too much.
It's delicious!
Let's try heating it up next time!
According to the brewer, it goes well with Western and Chinese dishes with strong flavors.
I guess that's exactly the flavor of sake that has been aged for a while, similar to that of Shaoxing sake!
I picked a lot of bamboo shoots, so let's try it with Chinese stir-fry with green pepper 😁.

This is a gift from a person who usually takes care of me.
I get excited when I receive sake.
Zuikan is a sake from Konu-cho, Miyoshi City, located in the northern part of the prefecture.
I haven't had a sake from Miyoshi since Miwazakura.
The sake rice is Chusei Shin Senbon, which is suitable for eating and is also the preferred rice for sake brewing in Hiroshima.
This sake rice has not been used here since the local Asahi Hou.
The rice is produced in Arifuku and Arifuku Castle is located in Joge-cho, famous for being the birthplace of Angie's Tanaka.
Polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content is 16
The aroma is mild, and the rice flavor comes through in the mouth with a lemon-like acidity.
From there, the spiciness and conventional sake-like alcohol taste 🍶.
It was also good with sashimi and stir-fried hormone😊.
