Moriguchi Keihan Department Store Sake Festival ⑫
Tochigi Ai 💕 also in Tochigi Prefecture from Kochi Prefecture
The Sawa Hime booth was manned by the same brewer who was at the Sake Brewer's Festival, and later, Mr. Bouken told me that he was the Touji (master brewer) of the brewery.
This time, the lineup was mainly regular.
Sawa Hime Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku
The most standard and basic sake.
It has a rice flavor, a well-balanced acidity, and a refreshing aftertaste. It is easy to pair with meals.
Sawahime Junmai Ginjo Hitogochi
A light and dry sake with a refreshing sweet and spicy taste. It is not tasteless, but has a gentle flavor. It is a perfect match for both Japanese and Western cuisine.
Sawa-hime Junmai
Mild sake made with Tochigi Sake 14.
It is a little spicy with a refreshing acidity, but it is a mild sake. It seems to be made with a sake degree of 0 to +1.
Sawahime Yamahai Junmai
A wild type of Yamahai using Hitogochi. The acidity is very strong, so it is said to be mischievous. It has a juicy flavor and a slight bitterness. It has a tangy and naughty taste.
Sawahime Junmai Gold
A little hard, matured and slightly burnt. It has a little bit of a richness to it. When I bought it at the brewer's festival, it was labeled 2019. It's more peculiar than weird.
