profile iconChidori Masamune is a Japanese sake from Sanda City! It is packed with umami, and although brewer's alcohol is added, the lingering aftertaste is amazing! Even when heated, the flavor is outstanding, and it is the best of the best!

profile iconSalmon Monogatari in Kansai ③. Chidori Masamune is a sake that is rarely available in Hyogo unless you go to the brewery. The head brewer of the brewery was there. The previous and current brewer are both graduates of Tokyo University of Agriculture, so they also produce red rice sake. The rice is also grown in the company's own terroir. The sake is pressed by the Yaegaki method, not the Yabuta method. We drank Mita Ichi Junmai Namaishu I thought it would be a classic type, but it had a nice aroma and was quite sweet. It was sweeter than the Mita Shibori I drank before and I liked it. Mita Mita Fukuda Junmai Daiginjo It has a classical taste with a strong graininess. It is not like a daiginjo and is not very subtle... There were people waiting behind me, so I couldn't talk much with them, but when I asked them if Hamadaya carried it, they replied, "Yes, Hamadaya does. I said, "Wow! I got a great reaction from him. He said that for some reason, they carry it there 🤣why is that 😅?

profile iconIt's like a light sweet, fruity mass. It is a sake that is in the easy-drinking zone, and if you are not careful, you can drink it quickly (and for the price), which is very dangerous. It is very tasty, but not at a price you can easily afford.

profile iconI have wanted to drink Sato Kikai since I saw the Manatchi review. What a surprise, it was in the all-you-can-drink section. It's strong and strong, but still has a nice sharpness that makes you want to drink the next one. The oil from the bean sprout tempura is also washed away easily. This is delicious. Sato is good at what they do. The waiter who brought the second Heki Frog was Mild Takeshon, and I thought he made a surprise appearance. It was the first time in my life to eat and drink with someone who speaks in a perfect Kansai dialect. Drinking Tohoku sake while listening to the Kansai dialect was exceptional. The last part of the event was a bit fuzzy in my memory 😅. Was it my imagination that she smelled slightly more this way?

profile iconSake from Tondasato, Takatsuki City, Osaka Prefecture Junmai Ginjo-shu named after the number of years since its establishment Nama sake seems to be limited in quantity Dry but with a touch of sweetness afterwards It has a very unique aroma. If I were to use an analogy, it would be like a Hakka-flavored candy drop. (Note: I let it sit for 2 days before drinking, and the unique aroma disappeared, and I started to taste sourness and fruity flavor. I prefer this one.

profile icon⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 The indescribable sourness peculiar to Ichiki spreads through the mouth, but was it not enough? ⭐️0.5

profile icon⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A brand that is no longer in existence, Ippiki. It seems to be refreshing, but comes with a gusto. It's not a sparkling sake, but it has a refreshing tanginess. Interesting sake. Kangiku is now the top sake in Chiba, but Ikki (now Koshi) used to be the best. It is a pity that this brand is no more!
