The 19th brewery at the 6th Takashimaya Sake Festival
LAGOON BREWERY "Shokku" / Niigata Prefecture
Founded in 2021 on the banks of Fukushima Lagoon, which is rich in nature.
Due to the deregulation of sake production licenses to "limit sake to export to overseas", the company now produces "other brewed sake".
This is another brewery that impressed me personally and led Mr. Bouken to establish this brewery.
Since they cannot make sake, they brew craft saké using local products.
Shozora naturally grown Kame-no-o San San Sumi Sake.
When this was explained to me, I thought, "Genius! I thought, "Genius! What are you mixing?" I asked him, "What are you mixing?" He told me that it is not a mixture of anything, but a subtractive craft sake.
It is a sake made with only rice malt, without using any rice as the base. Since white koji is used, it also has a citric acid sourness.
Shozora Amber SAKE Margherita
Mixed with tomatoes and basil, this sake tastes like a pizza, but I don't know how to describe this one. It was a sake I had never experienced before and it was unclassifiable.
Shozora Mori no SAKE - Kuromoji Doburoku.
A doburoku mixed with the leaves of a tree called kuromoji. I couldn't tell the taste of Kuromoji.
Craft saké is also interesting❗❗
