Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting (15) Sake by Higashiyama Sake Brewery of the Kizakura Group. You can buy it at Kappa Country 😙. Kunidrop after a very long time Rice is Yamadanishiki produced in Tottori Polishing ratio 60%, Sake degree -1, Acidity 1.7, Amino acidity 1.2 Alcohol 18%. Easy to drink and sweet. I've had it in the past and it's written off as fruity and pineapple, but I think it tasted pretty modern again.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting ⑭ This is a bottle of Burozumi that was not on the list! The classic label is cool 😻 The rice is Mizukagami Polishing ratio 65%, 14% alcohol I had this one warmed up, and it was delicious with a gentle and mild flavor! The fact that Furozumi also produces a standard sake like this in Yamahai is amazing, isn't it? I heard that the local sake called Oku-Biwako that I drank before is also Yamahai! I wonder if there are any izakayas that serve only this kind of sake?

Good evening, Pon-chan. Okayama-san has it in stock, but it's only one bottle and the price seems to be around 1,900 yen, so maybe it's distributed mainly locally 🤔. If more people don't come, they will go out of business 🤣.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting ⑬ We had a bottle of Soma no Tengu in the past. The bottle was empty once, but they opened a new bottle and served it lukewarm! The rice is Yamadanishiki Polishing ratio 59%, Sake degree +3, Acidity 1.8, Amino acidity 1.4 Alcohol 17%. There may be a difference between cold and warmed sake, but it tasted lighter than past sakes I've had. I think others have probably said the same thing. I think I prefer it a little heavier like before. Also, I thought it had a bit more sweetness 🤔. I forgot to take a picture, so I borrowed Nemuchi's picture😅

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting (11) First Shichiroubei I have seen it at Seijo Ishii, but I had avoided it because of the image of heated sake and aged sake😅. Rice is Akita Sake Komachi Rice polishing ratio 75%, Sake degree +17, Acidity 1.9, Amino acidity 3.0 Alcohol 20.5%. It's rare to find a pure rice sake with over 20% alcohol by volume. And it's fire-brewed, not unpasteurized. There is no sweetness and it has a strong sense of maturity. It tastes like matured Okuharima nigori. This was not my favorite type😅. I was a little curious to see how it would be when heated up.

Good evening, bouken! Does Seijo Ishii have Shichiroubei in Kansai? I'm not sure 🤔. In Tokyo, it's around Kuheiji or Masumi 🙄🙄.

Hi Matsuchiyo-san ☀☀ Seijo Ishii in Amagasaki always has it, but I don't think I see it much anywhere else 🤔. I think you can find Masumi and Kuheiji anywhere. I think the other ones you can find are Sei and Dewazakura 😀.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting Event (10) Here is also Mr. Okura of CWS I wonder if it is correct to say that this is a one-stage brewing of mizu-hashiroshi. Is the third stage Mizuhashiroshi and the second stage Kikuhashiroshi? Rice is Kinuhikari. Rice polishing ratio 70%, Sake degree -39, Acidity 5.8 Alcohol 16%. Mellow and ripe in the mouth. Lactic acid bacteria like Calpis! It tastes like Calpis or some other lactic acidic bacteria! It is rich, sweet and sour, but even more peculiar than mizu-hashiro (water yeast).

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting ⑨. This is Mr. Okura from CWS. I personally like the usual label better 🤔. Rice is Hinohikari Polishing ratio 70%, Sake meter -30, Acidity 4.3 Alcohol 17%. The specs alone give off a 🫶 vibe 🤣. According to various social networking sites, the Genryu series is all unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. Rich, fruity, honey-like sweetness and strong acidity like lemon. The taste is a bit strong, but I like it. There was another sake that a customer brought as a gift, but it is not commercially available and I can't tell you which brewery it is from, so I won't post it here 🙃. It was delicious and I'm curious to know where it's brewed...

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting Event 8 South of Tomegawa Liquor Shop events and other events with a good impression. Rice is Matsuyama Mitsui Rice polishing ratio 60%, Sake degree +6, Acidity 1.6 Alcohol 15.8%. Not sweet, but strong umami. This is a common feeling in the hi-ire of the south, and I wonder if it is because it is unfiltered, regardless of whether it is fresh or hi-ire. I haven't bought it for years, so I thought I should drink it at home after a long time😅.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting (7) From here I would like to ease my mind and drink 😁. Saijotsuru, which I don't drink very often, and this is a CWS product by sake dealer Yamada! The rice is Nakate Shin Senbon. It's from Hiroshima, but they also use Isobeki from Aichi. Polishing ratio 55%, Sake degree -3, Acidity 2.0, Amino acidity unknown. Alcohol 16%. I thought it was sweet and a little muscat-like. As it says "cute", it has a lovely sweetness 😽. It's a modern sake with a CWS.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting Event (6) The last of Kaiun is Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio 55%, Sake degree +5, Acidity 1.8, Amino acidity 1.2 Alcohol 17.7%. The sweetest of the five, and I thought it was my favorite. All were delicious though 😋. I've had this one in the past, and I've written about the gasiness and minerality, but this time I couldn't tell 💦. I had a blind sake tasting after this, but I got all the questions wrong😅. Yes, I have a stupid tongue 🙄. I'll let you know the result of Nemuchi and Ao-chan in their respective posts 😌. The taste of Kaiun? I thought the difference in subtle nuance was due to the difference in sake rice 🤔. I'm not sure if it's hard to notice the difference between the two, since they have similar acidity levels when looking at the specs... That's all my excuse 😅.

Good evening, bouken🦉. I wanted to try this sake tasting but it seems quite difficult 💦I probably can't do it either 😂. I only drank Yamadanishiki, but this one is the sweetest 😊.

It only says "Honorifuji" on the label, but it seems they are currently using the successor variety, 2021 Honorifuji. A little sharp and sharp impression. Seemed spicier than the others.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting ④. Kaikai no Aiyama, the place where Ane-san was inspired to cast a spell. Rice polishing ratio 55%, Sake degree +4, Acidity 1.5, Amino acidity 1.1 Alcohol 17%. Slightly lighter and more refreshing than the others. It did not feel more Aizan-like than when we drank it in the past. Maybe it was the order in which I drank it, or maybe I was pulled in by the other liquors?

Rice polishing ratio 55%, Sake degree +1, Acidity 1.4, Amino acidity 0.9 Alcohol 17.2 Bitter with a bit of nuttiness. A bit of a western taste towards the end... I realized that this is impossible to guess 🤣.

Liquor Shop Okayama Tasting (1) I went to the tasting just as I was thinking of going to Kyoto because I had some sake I wanted to buy 😁. The train was running very late, so we had to change our route and arrived a little late, sorry for keeping Nemuchi and Ao waiting 🙇. I didn't have time to buy any entrée, but I got a lot of food 🙏. The first one was my first Hyakuban! Rice is Ginotome Rice polishing ratio 55%, Sake degree +-0, Acidity 1.7, Amino acidity unknown Alcohol 16%. I had the impression that Hyakuban was a spicy sake, but it is sweet and delicious.

Buy at Icoma Another brand of Yukihikosan It's not written on the bottle but according to the internet, it's a draft sake. It almost spurted when I tried to open the bottle 😅 I heard it was dry, and it is indeed dry, but it has a sweetness to it with a rummy/apple-like schwashiness. Easy to drink and emptied quickly💦.

Sake from Oita's Yatsuka Shuzo brewery. The date has disappeared and is unreadable, so the store asked if it was around 1998. I asked, but it says it was founded in 1864 and celebrates its 125th anniversary, so is it a 1989 sake? It was nicely aged for its age, and tasted like an expensive one like Kenrishi Zuisho. I searched for the toji's name and found that he had already passed away, but it said "Goto Touji". It seems that the toji from the Goto Islands is called Ojika Toji (Goto Toji). Funaraiya is still being sold, but it seems to be distributed only in Oita Prefecture.

After visiting Okayama, he stopped by Ako and bought it at the brewery. There is a museum in the brewery where you can browse through an illustrated book of old sake brands, including Gokurakutombo, Seikin Musume, Demicho (Gunkoku Masamune before the war 😳), and other sake with strange names. By the way, all of them were sake breweries in Hyogo 😅. Gifu's Kikugawa and Nippon Seishu (Chitotsuru) also had their breweries in Nada 🤔. It had a solid taste like a model of Honjozo type raw sake, which made me feel at ease. It was probably the best Chushingura sake I've ever had!

He bought it at a supermarket in Ibara City. It is from Takebayashi no Kura, but I wonder if it is a local brand. Junmai Ginjo made from Omachi and reasonably priced at about 1,200 yen. It's refreshing with a hint of sweetness. It is not like Omachi, but it is delicious! The store owner said that the sake bought at the supermarket is better than the sake bought at the brewery😅...
