かずき
Opened November 27, 2025
Purchased at Sanwa, a liquor store.
Suddenly refreshing acidity and citrus fruit 🍊
Mainly sweet, but accented by a bitterness that peeks out!
Rumored to be a revived brewery, I've been wanting to try it someday ^ ^.
I'd love to try it someday!

The last third drink at Seasonal Cuisine Saisai was a first time brewer, Kawamura Shuzojo's Toyo Otokoyama!
This time it was Junmai Genshu!
Let's have it right away!
First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma!
In the mouth, it is sweet and sour with a fresh impression.
The bitterness spreads to the back of the throat, so it has a good balance.
The umami and sweetness spread in a good way, and the pungency and bitterness take over the aftertaste, which is irresistible!
The last night of our trip to Yamaguchi, we had a great dinner and drinks, and it was a pleasant memory of our first trip as a couple in a long time!

Looks like a fun trip for you and your wife, nice 🥰.
The food looks good too 😋.
I thought I've been drinking Yamaguchi sake alright, but not this one. I'll try it next time I find it 🍶.

ma-ki-, excuse me too 😃.
Toyo Otokoyama, I know there are several Otokoyama but this is my first time to know about Toyo 😳.
Despite my impression, it's a sweet and sour 🥰 sake that makes me curious 😃.

Thank you, Takashi!
Wow, even Takashi-san was able to drink a sake that he had never encountered before 🎵.
It was a well-balanced sake with a sweet and sour main taste, so please try it on your next business trip 😋!

Thank you, Kozo!
Yes, it's a very simple label 😁✨✨.
But this is a very good sake and I felt the high level of Yamaguchi Prefecture's sake 😋.
Sake with good food at a travel destination is the best 🤗.

Thank you Kano!
It was a blissful time 🤤 to have delicious food and local sake at a local restaurant on my trip 🤤.
We ate and drank a lot, did some sightseeing and enjoyed the sake lish 😁✨✨.

Thank you very much, ichiro18!
I didn't know much about the type of alcohol so I asked for something unusual 🎵.
But it was a great decision, well balanced and tasty 😋.

Toyo Otokoyama Junmai Genshu
Rating 4.4
Polishing ratio 60%, alcohol 17%.
Junmai-genshu brewed with 60% polished Yamadanishiki rice.
It has an exquisite balance between a moderate sharpness and umami. The clean acidity stands out in the robust flavor, making it a perfect mid-meal type sake that you will never get tired of drinking.

I heard that they revived a dormant warehouse, so I bought some while touring,
It has a simple label.
How does it taste?
It has a strong acidity.
It has a delicious flavor, and you can hardly taste any other flavors.
Where did the master brewer learn to make this sake?
From the way it tastes, it might be similar to Toyo Bijin, which is also located in the same prefecture.
It also has "Toyo" in its name.
Congratulations on your new start.
I'll buy your next sake when it comes out again,
I'm looking forward to it!

ふかきよ
I thought it was a dry and delicious sake with a slight sweetness, a tangy sourness and a distinct bitterness, and a slightly strong alcohol taste.

いのしん
A masterpiece of the brewery revived after a 20-year absence.
The mouthfeel is gentle and rich in flavor. From the name, one would expect a gutsy sharpness, but it is a beautiful sake with an elegant umami that lingers to the end.
Served with Tsukasa gyoza (dumplings)

It appears that you can't choose a brewery for this app either, as it is a brewery that will be re-launched in 2025. It tasted even better than I expected! Awesome!

Excuse my comment. When did you find this kind of alcohol? Where did you purchase it? Is it in your hometown, Yamaguchi?
I often go back home to Yamaguchi, so I would like to look for it.
