We had just purchased another bottle of Otters from the Otters' brewery, so we compared Otters 😀. This is BLUE, which Otters started making in the US 😀. I was surprised to see that the taste of BLUE is quite different from that of Toryumon 🤣. It's a delicious sake, but I don't think the name "Ottersai" is quite right 😅. I'd like to ask the brewer next time I talk to him if it's the taste made for American tastes or if it's the difference in water 😀. By the way, I heard when I visited Kido the other day that they are going to start making sake in the US too 😀. Otters make their sake next door in New York, but Kido-san is planning to start on the West Coast😇. But Heiwa Shuzo said they won't ship under the name Kido because the water is still different 😀.

Good morning, Yasube-san ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. I see that you can buy the newest "Otter Blue" at the brewery 😲. I'd like to taste the early version I bought before, the facility and water were imported from the US and the sake rice from Japan, but now the sake rice is produced locally.

Hi Gyve 😀 I see what you mean 😀. I bought it at the brewery's store, thinking that BLUE is sold only in Yamaguchi prefecture, even though it is also sold in Kansai 😀. It seems to be a mixture of domestic and US rice 😇.

Hi Yasbay 😃. Otter BLUE has a different taste: ❗️ I avoided it because of the import price, but now my interest in drinking it has exploded: ⤴️

Hi Hiro, good evening 😀 I think it's good if you think it's a different kind of sake 🤣. But considering the price, I don't think I'll have it next time😅.
