Lake Noguchina hyacinth Mr. Noguchi is a non-drinker. He seems to follow "Toan" and sales people to get their feedback on the direction of taste. People's tastes change rapidly with the times. I make sake that people want. That is my creed. He said. At the tasting room "Toan", a small number of people (12 seats) can try tasting sake in a calm space inspired by a tea ceremony room. The format is to enjoy how the taste changes by changing the sake cup and temperature   .

Katsuyama Traveling in Sendai The label was a bit of a mystery. A tourist ambassador of some sort? Easy drinking food sake. The other two had a strong flavor, so it left a weak impression. The sake had been offered as an official brewery since the time of Lord Date Masamune, the founder of the Sendai clan, and had an auspicious name as a symbol of "victory" and "prosperity.

Ichinokura Madena Traveling in Sendai Mutoya Sendai Station Store and Kakuchi Platte Sweet and mature taste like sherry or port wine. Amazing. Caramel. I don't think this is the kind of sake you can drink at a standing bar in a station. I like the label too. It was created by a joint effort of four local breweries (Asami Shoten, Katsurai Sake Brewery, Sakurai Sake Brewery, and Matsumoto Sake Brewery). As a newly united brewery, they call themselves "Ichinokura" and are committed to both tradition and innovation.
