Had as part of the Ume Course during my second dinner at this lovely ryokan. It was smooth and my favorite of the bunch. Definitely lived up to its name.

I got the Pine Course of sake with my first dinner at Kutsurogijuku Chiyotaki, this sake was part of it and was far and away my favorite. Delicious, smooth, with a hint of pine and a certain je ne sais quoi. If I can find a bottle, I’m getting it!

Drank from my suitcase stash as I bought too much sake this trip 🤣 It was sweet but not cloying and nicely strawberry! I could taste that it was real berries, not a fake flavor.

Tried at my tasting at Imayo Tsukasa Brewery. One of my favorites from the tasting. It was so delicious and different than usual non-cedar barrel sake. I bought some so I can have it again later 🥰

Tried at my tasting at Imayo Tsukasa Brewery. Oh wow - it was crazy how much sweetness they packed into this without using sugar! Yum!

Tried at my tasting at Imayo Tsukasa Brewery. Tasty! It was cool to get to try a Junmai, a Junmai Ginjo, and a Junmai daiginjo in quick succession.

Tried at my tasting at Imayo Tsukasa Brewery. My first koshu and DAMN it was so good! It was fantastic, interesting, and smooth. I bought some so will gladly enjoy it again in future.
