National Sake Fair 2025 (5)
National Sake Fair held in Osaka in conjunction with the Expo
This is the last one.
The last one is Shirakiku from Okunonoto.
It is called "Noto no Natsuyasumi.
The label is also nice and reminds us of the sea of Noto.
This is the first sake after the resumption of brewing in Noto in March this year.
It is served chilled.
It has a slight yellow hue.
The nose has a rich aroma of honeysuckle, chervil, melon, and cream.
From the gentle mouthfeel, from the soft and fresh floral intro, the richness of sweet and umami taste is smooth, and the sourness like butter candy is firmly felt. In the latter half, the bitterness gradually appears and the finish is slow and lingering.
The way the richness of sweetness and umami comes out may be a little unbalanced, but it is still delicious and keeps you coming back for more 😊.
Is there a version of Ishikawa Sake No. 68, newly developed in Ishikawa Prefecture? Is the extra version, Yuyake, more on the dry side?
I tasted a whole range of Noto sake at the National Sake Fair, and I still love Okunonoto's Shirakiku. I was so happy I took it home immediately😊.
Finishing up with everyone who went to the Kokunisake Fair 📷✨.

Hi, Pon. I can imagine how hard it must have been for you to go back to Noto and restart brewing again. I had the sake cup made of Noto indigo, thinking of Noto 😊Pon-chan, I hope you will too!
