Tasted at the Niigata Prefecture exhibit at the Osaka Kansai Expo. It was a test brew.
I was only able to taste a small portion of the sake, so I could not savor it.
It was very refreshing.
By the way, a set of three 40ml glasses and salted fish was priced at 1,500 yen.
Bodai Hashiwadashi brewing using Yoshinosugi wooden vats
This is a Sanomorosugi made at the newly opened Miwa Densetsu Brewery on the approach to Ogami-Sha Shrine.
It has a sweet and umami taste. It seems to go well with warmed sake.
Two days after opening the bottle
Light and refreshing.
Mildly umami and mildly dry. Easy to drink and delicious.
Purchased at Imanishi-san on the approach to Ojin Shrine, which I visit several times a year. There is much less sake on the shelves than before.
It has been selling well lately, and they are running out of it. As a small brewery, they have considerably reduced the amount of sake they sell to retailers. The store on the approach also needs to increase the number of days it is closed, he said.
The Miwa Lore Storehouse across the street from the approach will open the day after tomorrow. I am looking forward to it.
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.
