It is brewed in the Hekikumo brewery on the campus of Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine. On the campus of Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, we brewed Jundaizu at the Hekiun brewery. I admire the idea of brewing sake at a university. It has a fruity and refreshing sweetness. It is very easy to match with meals. On the 11th of next month, the first sake brewed by students "Hekiun" (Junmai Ginjo), the first sake I am very interested in it. I am very interested in it.

(Translated from Japanese by 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I was in the vicinity of Takeba's brewery, Kazuma Shuzo, on business the other day, so I stopped by the brewery to purchase some 😃. The aroma is fresh and mellow 😚The taste in the mouth is fresh, juicy, sweet and delicious 😊The acidity is clean and crisp 😊The taste is delicious 🥰. I realized later that if I went all the way to the brewery, I should have bought the brewery's limited edition sake 🤣.

Ordered after the taxi driver. Also raw sake. It's called "Soma no Tengu". It is not possible to read it if it notices the frigana of the label. I'm sorry. It's as difficult to read as Kireuriwari in Osaka. Well, how is the taste...? It's been a long time since I drank muddled sake, so I had a strange feeling at the first sip, but the sweetness came, and I thought it was characteristic to change to sourness soon. I drank it up with some sea bream stew and enjoyed it.

This is Asahi Kiku Arahashiri, a Fukuoka souvenir 🍶. It's in a nice looking bottle, but it seems that during the new sake season, Fukuoka's sake is often served in these stoppered bottles. I thought it was nice because it can be corked tightly so it is easy to reuse. The initial aroma is slightly sweet, like cooked rice. In the mouth, it has a mild sweet flavor with a slight astringency. It finishes with a slight bitterness. The astringency was a bit strong, but the sake was delicious with a calm and full flavor typical of Asahi Kiku ✨.

Japanese>English

This naturist sake is made from pesticide-free Yamada Nishiki produced in Itoshima. It is a clean and crisp sake that does not interfere with the bitterness of char-grilled young ayu fish and the enjoyment of the juicy meat of the adult ayu fish. Rice: 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Fukuoka Prefecture Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 15

Found it at a local store I sometimes go to 👀. I had no prior knowledge of the brand, but was attracted by the sexy label and the owner's comment that it was "sweet and delicious" 😁. It is indeed sweet. But not sticky, clean and elegant sweetness 😋. By the third day, the sweetness was reduced and the taste was balanced 😆 Uma~! I guess the 6th place in the Saga ranking is not for nothing 😆😆. Thanks for the food 🙏🙏.

It's an Ibaraki sake bar, but they also sell a lot of small bottles 😆. So I bought a small bottle as a souvenir 🤣. I wanted to drink hot sake, so I chose this one that looks good for hot sake. This is Tsuki no I of Oarai ❗️ Yumbe Yokocho is the best place to drink, just stick the bottle in ❤️. I'll have it at 50°C 😋😋. Nice caramel color. And the aged aroma that smells powwow. It has a gentle, light, sweet mouthfeel and a moderate acidity. It has a gentle, light, sweet mouthfeel with just the right amount of acidity and a nice, sweet taste. I paired it with shime saba (mackerel) and it's great ☺️. The vinegariness that is unique to shime saba is refreshingly clean, yet the sweetness and umami of the sake is still there 😋. I thought it would be a bit more dry, but it wasn't as dry as I thought it would be 😉. Ibaraki sake review rate is going up because of the Ibaraki sake bar 😂.

Scoring☆☆☆☆ Kamikame Shuzo's Sake Pants from Saitama All products bearing the name "Hikomago" are aged for more than three years in the brewery before being shipped. Open the bottle! 🌠 The sweet aroma of rice drifts faintly in the air😄. The first glass is a cold sake. Rich, soft, and robust. 😋 The second glass is lukewarm or hot ❗ The rice flavor is nice 😋 A little nostalgic, I️ surprisingly like the taste of Junmai sake🎶. Tonight I paired it with shabu shabu and it was a good match for the meat👍. I recommend drinking it warmed up with strong flavored food and cheese😄.

I can't describe it in one word, and I can't speak for myself, so if you haven't tried it yet, please give it a try! Anyway, it is a very good sake! Aged
