A new brand newly released by Uozu Shuzo, which changed its name from Motoe Shuzo to Uozu Shuzo in December, after a three-year absence.
A Tokyo-based company called Sake Capital has taken over the business, which is in the same family as Tenka and Shibachu. The labels share the same design. The president is also the same person as Tenka.
Incidentally, the Shibauraku brewery seems to have been incorporated from a sole proprietorship.
It seems that he was involved in the revival of Ginban, Asakura, and Fuji-Takasago, so he must have a reputation for revitalizing sake breweries.
The flavor is light and lychee-like. Modern atmosphere. I didn't feel the gasiness mentioned on the label on the back. I guess it is slightly bubbly because bubbles appear when pouring it into a glass.... The sweetness is moderate and rather spicy.
To be honest, it is a bit harsh compared to Tenka and Shihu...?
Maybe it's my fault that I imagined it to be sweet. The Shiboritate that was released exclusively at the Meimon Shukai during the old regime is still closer to my taste.
Maybe it's because they share the same parent company, or maybe it's because the distributors of Amahana and Murasakyu are now handling it.
I'm going to try to buy a bottle of the traditional Beiyo brand next, since it seems sweeter.

Good evening, bouken🌇.
Uozu Sake Brewery, that's what you meant!
I saw two kinds of new sake at the liquor store on Saturday, so I was curious about it. I'll try to buy some next time ^ ^.

@Mizuhashi Good evening😊I saw the notice of arrival at a local liquor store and checked it out. I am sure there will be a good increase in the number of distributors, so I have high expectations for the future 😀.
