Tonight, we continue our series of firsts with this one, named after the female toji known for her work at Tomikunaga. This sake is brewed with Hachitanishiki and Yamadanishiki. The freshness is alive and well, and the melon aroma (typical of Yamada Nishiki) is faintly felt at first, but then the sharp dryness and acidity overflow into the pineapple aroma (So_1F34D) without the sweetness of Hachitan Nishiki and continue until the finish. It's very refreshing and easy to drink 😋.

At the sake bar at the Niigata Food and Sake Festival in Harukas. We started with the first one from the right, Kashiwa Dew Nigori Sake. It is very sweet and has a low alcohol content of 8 degrees. The sake level is -60 degrees, so even beginners will like this one. 🙆♂️

Store Drinking. HITOGOKICHIKI 100% The color is clear or slightly amber. The aroma is that of rice. When you sip it, you will taste the flavor of rice. It has a dry ALC feel. There is no fruity sweetness, and the taste is stoic. The rice sweetness remains until the end, with a rounded aftertaste. It has the impression of a Junmai Doshin🎯 royal road.

😁 Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio: 59 Alcohol content: 15 I drank the sake I missed yesterday today. I went to Ueda, so I bought a bottle of Wada Ryutonomizu. It was a delicious hiyaoroshi with a good taste of rice. None of the people I drank with today knew about it. I thought it was pretty famous in my opinion, but... Is that so?

Limited brand of Daishinshu: 🇯🇵 Buy it during your pilgrimage to the Holy Land✨. Only about 10 dealers carry this brand. You can find anything in the Holy Land........ 🤣. The ginjo aroma is green apple 🍏. It's been a long time since I've had a Daishinshu, but we share the same aroma 😤. I wonder if the sake rice is Hitogokochi or Miyamanishiki? (→ later I checked and it was Hitogochiki 😳) The balance of sweetness and umami, and then acidity to finish is perfect🤣.

I had it at a tavern sometime ago and remember it was delicious. I bought it and drank it at home. It is still delicious. Clear, juicy and slightly sweet. It didn't contain the carbon dioxide gas stated on the back label, sorry!

2022/06/17 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Refreshing and dry eye aroma. Fizzy and light to drink. Grapefruit? Aquarius? It tastes like a grapefruit? Anyway, it is easy to drink. There is a slight lactic acidity. It is crisp and refreshing. It is good to drink it cold on a hot day.

Farewell party connected by sake rice. From the Hokuriku Sake Rice Series and the Sake Kingdom of Niigata Prefecture, Koshitanrei and Tokimizu Meisui Tatomo Junmai Ginjo, a gem from GINigata. It may be light, but it is rather deep. It tends to be umami. As expected from Niigata. At Joetsu Takata Funakae

The third group of the Sake Rice and Yeast Association is Gintome and Yuko's Idea from Iwate Prefecture. Iwate is often named after the pure-heartedness of the Tohoku region or after Kenji Miyazawa, and the rice is Gintome, which is a Gin user. Yuko, the yeast, seems to be named after the developer, Ms. Yuko Yamashita of the Iwate Prefectural Industrial Technology Center. It is a clear, dry sake. Sake from Iwate is interesting in many ways. To be continued.

This is another Michinoku favorite, Fukushi Shiboritate nama-shu, new rice, new sake. It has a fruity aroma with a hint of fruitiness. It has a bit of sweetness, but the bitterness finishes it off, making it a delicious sake that you will never get tired of drinking.
