silver coin Rustic flavor. Gentle sweetness. Mild aroma. There is nothing sharp, but it has presence. I see, this is Masumi. It is an ordinary sake. I would not dare to choose it for my own tastes, which is why I taste it carefully at the event. The 1st Masumi Kurabiraki 2025 -Party at Masumi - 5/31 10:00-15:00 You can drink a fair amount of 12 different kinds of sake, so if you drink at a healthy pace, it will take quite a while. The opening greeting by the president, "Good evening," brought a smile to my face.

springtail (wingless insect of the order Collembola) Mature aroma. A woody, caramel-like aroma spreads in the mouth, with a sticky sweetness and umami. When you swallow it, your tongue will feel a slight bitterness afterwards. The taste is rich and delicious. 19 degrees Celsius! Sake wrapped in Yomiuri Newspaper. A sake brewery in Kimitsu. Cheeba-kun's stomach. Too bad we couldn't go there in time. Purchased at a sake shop in Kururi. The sake brewery in Kimitsu has a great selection of sake. It was interesting to hear the local stories. (The smell of cigarettes was amazing...).

Ootsutsuzumi Hana no Tomo Co. Little fragrance, with a fruity aroma in the depths. Soft in the mouth. It has no habits and is almost watery, although it gives the impression of being a little sweet. A good, calm sake. This sake is named after a place in Matsuo-cho, Yamatake City. Purchased at a sake brewery during GW. One of the sake breweries in Kujukuri. The building is magnificent and the garden decorated with lava-derived rocks is lovely.

Soft citrus aroma. Slightly sweet. Spreads on the tongue and has no habits at all. Soaks in. A high and tasty one. A high-class sake made with rice from Tomi in cooperation with Daishinshu and Horyomon. Super expensive. Furthermore, the plum wine made by Assumption became the best in Japan last year. Furthermore, there is also a sake called "Sake without Assumption," which is twice as expensive as this one, but it is actually the same sake, made from a different pressing lot, and is said to be particularly delicious. What an amazing world! Dai-Shinshu no Kurabiraki - Love Thanksgiving - 2025 5/25 11:00 ~15:00 Tickets are a bit expensive, but it's understandable since it's both a food event and a festival. Yesterday and today, Chushin is hot with Kurabiraki and craft fairs.

major design A sweet, apple-scented sake. It is not a typical Daisetsukei sake, but I like it. Directly pumped from the limited server during the brewery opening. It is fresh and crisp. I think it goes well with Sanzokuyaki. Azumino Ikeda-machi Sake Brewery Festival 2025 5/24 10:00-16:00 Daisukei and Fukugen in Ikeda-machi opened their breweries for the first time in 6 years. The Daisetsueki venue was very lively with a live performance by a singer from Nagano Prefecture and many oily stalls. The brewery tours were good with quite professional explanations. There were 14(!) free tastings and 7 paid tastings. It is interesting that the more expensive the tasting is, the more delicious it is. The fresh amazake (sweet sake) that they serve is delicious. I'm sure there are some people who went to the same event as the Kamidori brewery opening, but I couldn't make it.

AND double Smells like caramel. Sour. Sweet. Slightly tingling. Impression like candy. And it smells like a sake brewery. I often see sake made with wine yeast these days, but this is delicious (my favorite). This is Kitayasu Brewery's recommended sake. Purchased at a sake shop. It was indeed a prosperous store.

bragging about one's success at the end of a long road Fresh grapefruit-like aroma and bitterness. Slightly effervescent and tangy. Aroma of rice and smoky aroma in the depths. Dry and easy to drink. Purchased at a liquor store in Oami, Chiba. I went to the sake brewery during GW, but they were sold out of Matsuo Boast. As one would expect. I was told of a liquor store that "sells it if it's still available," and I bought it without incident. The Kujukurihama beach was windy and the waves were high.

It has a sweet taste, but it is dry when you swallow it. Perhaps it is because I drink it while watching sumo wrestling, but Yamae-nishiki seems to be the name of a wrestler. This is the third prize for achieving SAKE country tourism. I bought a bottle of Chiba sake even though there was still some left, so my fridge is feeling very overwhelmed.

I like it. Purchased at Zenkojiya Sake Brewery, a liquor store in Nakano City. It is located between Marusei Sake Brewery and Igaya Sake Brewery. If you are not driving, you can taste it. I bought it for myself while I went to buy the hottest souvenir of Nagano Prefecture, "Tsuki no Usagi no Unko" (a rabbit of the moon). Next time, I would like to buy Shigaizumi as a souvenir.

ume (plum) unripe plum blossoms boiled in soy sauce with mirin Delicious. Sweet aroma of grape type + yogurt. Numb but soft on the tongue. The flavor is strong, yet not cloying. Purchased at Mikiya, a direct sales store near Umeichirin Sake Brewery. They sell Ume-Ichirin sake, sake cups, and other goods, but they also sell boxed lunches and other items, just like a convenience store. I bought this one, which had a pop-up sign saying it was the most popular. I found out about this place at a bar in Matsumoto the other day, and since it is a sake brewery in Kujukuri, I went there since it was the GW season and Kangiku was close by. The back of Cheeba-kun's head. Umeichirin Sake Brewery is doing quite well for a local sake and is expanding nationwide. I heard from another nearby sake brewery (Moriya Sake Brewery) that they are expanding their business nationwide.

cold war Little aroma. Full-bodied. A little bit of umami. It is very mild but tasty. It is also delicious when served with dashi broth. We are currently exploring izakaya in front of Matsumoto station. However, the cost is very expensive, so we are trying to keep it moderate. It is a very small restaurant located along the Otowa River. It is full of regular customers, but it is a very nice restaurant that creates a comfortable atmosphere even for first-time customers. I was surprised at the leek balls. They have a wide selection of sakes that you don't see in the Matsumoto area, which is very appealing. The sake offered in the set of three different kinds of sake was Izumo Fuji, Izumo Izumi, and Gokeijo. I don't know all of them.

When cooled, it has a habit of lactic acidity and aged aroma. Warmed. The nose has a woody, savory aroma. It has a fruity and gentle sweetness as well as a sense of rice. A little sour. Numb, sharp and delicious. 15 Chouji Junmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki Ajiginjo Slightly pear aroma. Ume. Soft, subtle sweetness and a refreshing citrus-like feeling. A little bitterness at the end. It has been a year since it was made, but I think it's good. The sake is named "Shigetu" after the sake brewer Takeshige and the toji Shigeta. The toji explained this to us when he opened the brewery in the past. SAKE Country Tourism Achievement Prizes. The third prize is from the Takeju Sake Brewery in Saku. It is one of my personal favorite sake breweries. The second batch of sake still remains, so the pressure in the refrigerator was tremendous. The following will be posted separately.

Catskill Little aroma, slight solvent aroma. Slightly piquant. Dry in the mouth. Overall, it is clean and refreshing. It could use a little more flavor, but that's okay. Obtained through crowdfunding. This is an American SAKE that came to Japan through a partnership with Hakkaisan. It does not taste strange at all, and is as good as Japanese Sake. If this is the case, is there any reason other than the rarity of choosing an American SAKE to drink in Japan? Price-wise.

Rhizopogon rubescens (species of edible mushroom) Aroma is quite fragrant, as is typical of old sake. I like it. Woody aroma and flavor. Numbness on the tongue. The astringency and acidity left on the palate makes it even better with snacks. It's a great taste for a great price. Amazing. It was a new experience for me. Purchased at a sake brewery in January. Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. It has a cafe and a store and was crowded with regular customers. Shiga Prefecture's famous popping-out boy is a ninja in Koka City.

biwacho Yellow. A fresh aroma like some kind of gum passes through the nose, and there is also the aroma of rice. The taste is delicious. It is light and refreshing. When you drink it, your tongue feels a bit irritated. A little astringency. It's delicious. The cherry blossoms on the bottle are lovely. It was purchased at a sake brewery in January. Takashima City, on the west side of Lake Biwa, is a fishing port or an area where fishmongers are flourishing. I thought it would be too early to see cherry blossoms, but it turned out to be a good time.
