Sh_ShujiSh_Shuji: "Onikoroshi", a super-harsh +9 sake from Kunimare Shuzo, recommended at an izakaya near my hotel during a business trip to Sapporo.
It was a good partner to complement the flavor of the Hokkaido sashimi platter!
Kunimei Shuzo is a sake brewery in the town of Mashige that was featured in the Rumoi Main Line section of NHKBS's "Drinking Iron Line"!
I have not visited the Zumo area, but it is a small town on the Sea of Japan side. The Rumoi main line has been closed and can only be reached by car, but I wanted to visit the sake brewery!
