Last week I visited Dewano-Fuji at Hankyu Department Store, but I went to Umemoto Sake-ten in Nishinakajima because I thought I could find more variety at a special distributor.
(Note that they have moved from the location shown on the map of Sake-no-wa, and they have a corner bar inside after 4:00 p.m.)
I was a bit lost, so I asked the waitress and she let me try a sample.
Melon-like fruity sweet taste.
Slightly refreshing?
It was delicious, but Junmai Arabashiri seemed rarer, so I bought that one 😊.

The beautiful kaleidoscope-like label is impressive. The taste is sweet with a hint of bitterness at the end. It is refreshing and crisp, but the screw was unusually hard to open, so I think it should be improved.
The Junmai Unfiltered Nama-jyu I drank at the end of the year was cheaper and much tastier.
I don't know if it's because they use Miyamanishiki, but it tastes a little like the Jokigen I had the other day. A bit 🍇ish.

Sato Shuzo Brewery

Brewery in Yajima-cho, Yurihonjo City, Akita Prefecture.
The rice is polished to 40% "Momota" grown in Akita Prefecture.
It has a gorgeous aroma and a rounded rice flavor,
Beautiful and full-bodied with a gentle aftertaste.
