Dew leaf style.
Purchased at the approach to Ojin Shrine.
Made with yeast collected from the lily of the valley.
Fruity but refreshing. Wine?
Can we go to the festival next month?
I spent my elementary and junior high school years in Oosazawa. Local sake from Kazuno Hanawa, aged in the mine tunnels.
Chitose Mori Sake Brewery crowdfunding return gift.
Mellow and fruity. It reminds me of the Kazuno apples my mother would peel and eat every night during the winter in the room with the wood stove burning.
Light and easy to drink. Delicious.
After the first peak of Corona, we had a dinner party with the brewer and his wife at an old private house in Dauda. It was fun.
Aged in oak barrels. Acidity 5.0, so called "weird sake"?
First time on the palate. It is more refreshing than expected.
It would go well with blue cheese.
Toasted on New Year's Day 2024 with Takezumi, a sake from his hometown.
It won a platinum award at the 2022 KURA MASTER in France.
It was served lukewarm. It has a mellow taste like a matured sake.
Hyogo-Nishiki, Fire-brewed
Hyogo Nishiki is grown in pesticide-free rice paddies where storks feed on it.
Slightly dry and refreshing. Easy to drink.
Winner of the Platinum Award 2023 at a competition in France.
I always buy Takezumi when I go back to my hometown.
