profile iconI found this fantastic ๐Ÿ˜„ at a sake store in Tsu Station, Mie Prefecture, where I was on a business trip. I heard that they have been in business with the company for a long time, so they were handling it. I've wanted to drink it for a long time ๐Ÿถ. Light on the palate, but with a sudden volume ๐Ÿ˜ณ. It's a bit of a surprise ๐Ÿ˜„. It's a little dry, so it's best with snacks that don't have a strong flavor ๐Ÿ˜„.

profile iconI sometimes have an irresistible craving for this sake, Zanso Hourai. It is fruity, but there is something more than just that that attracts me. Maybe it's the balance of flavors, but it suits my taste buds incredibly well. It was empty in no time at all.

profile iconZanso Hourai, "Oringo Kudasai" (Please give me an apple). It has an apple aroma and a refreshing taste with a good balance of sweetness and acidity, with a distinctive apple-like bitterness on the back end. It may be less apple-y than the sake we drank yesterday that uses apple acid from Amezure. Apple-ness?

profile iconThe 7th Matsuo Taisha Sake-1 Grand Prix 21 Toyonoume's booth. This is another unknown brewery in Kochi with a sales volume of about 300 koku. I wonder if they have been replaced by a new brewer, Mr. Kazuho Takagi (6th generation) from Mr. Naoyuki Takagi (5th generation). The Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate Nama Shuzake version is a refreshingly sweet and acidic sake. It has a refreshing sweet and sour taste, with a little bit of sake. A little bitterness at the end. Ito wo okashi Junmai Ginjo Activated light nigori Active light nigori with CEL-24 yeast. The aroma is fruity and gorgeous. The overall impression was that it would be sweeter, but at the end, it was surprisingly dry with a hint of sweetness and bitterness. It was originally supposed to be made with Kochi yeast, but CEL-24 yeast arrived by mistake. That's why the name "Itookashi" was chosen. It was also different from the image of Kochi sake.
