The fourth restaurant in Goala was Shuku Kaijin 🎊. President Maruo and the brewer were here, and I had a nice chat with him, but I was so engrossed in the conversation and sake that I forgot to ask for a photo 😅. While drinking Oceto, I looked at the menu and found a nigori sake that I had never seen before, so I quickly ordered it 🍶. The first aroma was slightly sweet with a hint of koji malt. The top aroma is slightly sweet with a hint of koji malt. It has a slight acidity, a slight sweetness from the rice, and a mild umami. It is said that the sake was kept in a refrigerator at 15°C after bottling, but it was so beautiful that it was hard to believe that it was from the H20BY. It is indeed Yamahai without any twists at all 😊. We also had some handmade junmai sake which is hard to find unless you are a local. It was delicious 🍶✨️ I asked the brewery about the yeast used, and they told me that the "Kumamoto No. 9" on the label is actually 5 different types of No. 9 yeast: 2 types from the Kumamoto Prefectural Sake Brewing Research Institute of "Koroh", 2 types from a yeast company whose name I forgot, and 1 type from an association yeast. Incidentally, Yamahai has no yeast added, but it seems to come from somewhere, and the label says that No. 9 is used.

Hi, Matsuchiyo-san. Enjoying your go-around 😆 Etsukaijin's H20BY nigori! Great to hear President Maruo's story while drinking such a hidden sake👍I didn't know there were so many varieties of No. 9 yeast 😳.

Hi Peco 🌞. Well that was great 😊 The yeast story was a surprise 🤔. The restaurant is a nice place run by a nice old couple, I think next year I'll go to drink all the triumphs they brought me to narrow down the stores to a few more 😆.
