Kansai Sake-new year off-line meeting (9) The fun continues ✨ We had a great conversation about the rare sake at the beginning of the party 🍶. Nishibori Tank Gake Shibori. Fruity aroma with a hint of honey, sweetness with no unpleasant taste, and a pleasantly clean aftertaste. This is delicious! I wonder if this is a private brand product of Nishibori Shuzo, a brewery in Tochigi that brews "out of the gate" and a liquor store 🤔. Tochigi love 🥰 even in Kansai offline meeting

SAKEWA Kansai Chapter 2024 New Year's Party Report: 2️⃣ Next up was another unfiltered raw sake✨. Nishibori had never had one before so we decided to order it 💡. It has a strong rice sweetness, and this one is also sweet like Wasanbon, leaving a bit of a lingering taste on the tongue. Upon closer inspection, it was a Tochigi sake 👀. It was like we were all drinking while saying that Tochigi sake is of a high level after all. ⤴️

Nishibori Aka Foil Short-stalked Watabune, reduced agrochemical rice sake, ginjo-non-filtered raw sake, jozo alcohol I personally like these labels. Many people who are not familiar with "Nishibori" may know the brand name of "Monsai Huzue". This is my first time drinking Nishibori, and it is delicious. It is a sake with a good flavor and sharpness. Short-stalked boat" is the parent of Yamada-Nishiki, a precious rice that has been revived in the modern age. I have not yet fully understood the characteristics of the taste, but I have the impression that it is lighter than Yamada. There is not much information about Nishibori on the Internet, so it may be that only a small amount is produced. Rating 4.1 (out of 5.0) 20230421

(The best way to get the most out of this product is to visit 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I bought this at a liquor store on my way back from a visit to a grave in Fukui Prefecture 🙋I bought it because it was reviewed on youtube by Ishikawa's world famous Hoshitaro. I took it out of the fridge and opened the bottle. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not, but it's a good thing. The flavor of the rice and the pleasant acidity. When the temperature is raised, the flavor and acidity are more assertive than right after opening the bottle. It says that it goes well with Japanese cuisine, and I think this is true. It is a good food sake that does not interfere with food. Sari seems to go well with rice crispy rice 😀.

Japanese>English

I wanted to drink some more, so I changed the restaurant for the third round of drinks. Sari Sari Tangled Hon Nama from Mouri Shuzo! Mild aroma, rich and full flavor, and a sharp sharp taste ✨. The introduction on the internet said it was brewed with the image of a "moon" floating in the spring haze, so it's been a while since I've had a "moon-viewing sake tonight" 🍶🌛🍶.

A night of drinking at "Fukuna Sakai" with my usual friends. Finally, we ordered the "roasted duck" that we had been curious about, which was quite delicious and similar to the seasoning we had previously had at an izakaya in Kyoto. Now, I've chosen sake from outside of the prefecture, but I ordered a bottle of Fukui sake to finish off the evening 🍶. Sari Junmai Daiginjo The aroma of rice with a hint of acidity, a slight shift from sweetness to umami, and then a sharp finish with a clear rice aroma. The sweetness and umami that is typical of "Sari" and the clean acidity finish off the duck's flavor and fat with a good aftertaste. I had a course, a la carte and various other dishes, all of them were very delicious and the price was very reasonable for the quality of the food, so I found a good restaurant ✨I will have to go back in the future

It was my first time to try Usuzakura. I missed the chance to buy nama sake, so I bought hiyaoroshi. The rice is Ginfuki. It has a relaxed atmosphere. The aroma is a little fruity. It has a mild sweet umami taste. Is it sweet among the Hiyaoroshi?

My second drink of the day was a nigori sake from Kashiwa Dew 😁. I was looking at the menu (photo) to see what to have next, and I saw that they had nigori sake! As a nigori lover, I didn't hesitate to order it 👍. It reminded me of doburoku from my recent trip to Hida Takayama! I wish I could go to the Dobrok Festival 🤣.

Japanese>English

The second Niigata souvenir. It may not be a Niigata-only sake, but it was delicious, so I bought it, he said. It is 8% alcohol. This is a rice juice. It is slightly effervescent and has a refreshing rice sweetness.

The liquor store in Kuise went out of business and we couldn't buy 100 rice bales, so we went to Furuki Sake-ten near Panasta. The store was also promoting Gamba ⚽ The brands they carry are Kiyotsuru, Katano Sakura, Yamazaru, Sanzen, Daikoku Masamune, Yone Hyakutawara, Yosamusume, etc. Yosamusume is a new brand! It's not an easy place to get to because it's far from the station and up a steep hill 💦. According to the official SNS, it is unfiltered and the rice is Takananishiki. It has a mild sweetness and acidity with a dry astringency in the latter half. The sweetness and sourness are both fluffy and cute 😽. Overall, it is refreshing, but there is also a strong alcohol taste. Personally, I would like to see more sweetness and umami, but it was sweeter than I expected 🤔.

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!

Japanese>English

A good amount of gas, a Fresh sweetness and aroma, and a light alcohol content of 13 The alcohol content is a light 13 degrees. It is perfect as a food sake. The simple label is impressive.

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.

The next drink was a Tokujiro for Joyo's distributor? Tokujiro I drank Joyo several times, but this was my first time to drink Tokujiro. I happened to see on a restaurant instagram I follow that Tokujiro was originally a joint product between a Hirakata liquor store and the Joyo Brewery. It's unfiltered, once-bottled, and heated. It's fire-brewed, but it's still slightly effervescent and has a fresh, mellow rice flavor that's really tasty 😋. I'll buy Tokujiro next time I see it.
