Tobiroki, I thought..! It's been a long time since I had a bottle of Tobiroki from my sister. I often go to Aizu, but I couldn't get it, so I wanted to try it. It's not much, but I'll take it gratefully. Fruity aroma like pear, Mellow and smooth, It has a refreshing bitterness. The mild sweetness and acidity are well balanced, I don't know what it means, but it's delicious! I'd like to drink a bottle, or at least a cup... === Ingredients:Rice(domestic),Rice malt(domestic) Rice: Yamadanishiki, Gohyakumangoku Rice Polishing Ratio: 40% for Koji, 50% for Kake Alcohol Content: 16 === The name of the brewery is ★★★★☆☆

MLB Opening Day! Cubs x Dodgers I wish I could have been there to see the Japanese presence! The day will come when baseball kids who saw this game will be active in the future. On such a day, I had a bottle of Hakkaisan, which became the official sake of the Dodgers. What is it? Official sake? It's the only sake served at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, and with the original design of the cups and events, I'm curious about the sake! What an honor, indeed, the Hakkaisan of the world. This is definitely an opportunity to sell sake in the U.S. I hope the whole industry rides the wave! To realize the dream of Jiro Nagumo, President of Hakkai Brewery, "Making SAKE the world's beverage of choice". Slightly lilting banana, Slightly mild banana, clear as water, A subtle, elegant sweetness. Refreshing bitterness like soda water, It is dry and crisp, It's a fine food sake, beautiful, and delicious. === A fine food sake, beautiful, and delicious.

Niigata Sake no Jin 2025! Neji Otokoyama from the Watanabe Sake Brewery in DOMAINE WATANABE, Itoigawa! At the sake camp, there are paid tables and free tables, and as I wanted to spare some time to sit and visit the breweries, the free tables were enough for me. It is fun to take a break and drink your purchased sake while sharing sake with people you don't know sitting nearby and making new friends. Here is a bottle given to me by the lovely ladies next to me who had come from far away. When I returned home, I found it in my backpack 🤣𐤔𐤔It had been snuck by someone when I was cleaning up on the way home. It has a rich, full flavor, It has a rich, full flavor with just the right amount of astringency and a clean, dry taste, It is delicious! The gap between the sweet and fruity sake is also nice, and once again, I was reminded how delicious sake is. It is also good heated!

At Niigata Sake-no-jin 2025! This is "Chisan", a Daiginjo of Shimeharihizuru! I went there to drink this first, and the blue label was so impressive that I drank it last year. Delicious...gorgeous, smooth, elegant and beautiful, This year, I got in line for the opening ceremony and the closing ceremony of the festival. (I knew Abe Brewery was going to be great). Four kinds of sake were compared and commentary by the brewer was included. (1) Junmai Ginjo Jun, 2) Daiginjo Chan, Junmai Ginjo Nama Harushibori, (3) Junmai Ginjo Nama Harushibori, (4) Umeshu (plum wine) by Shimejotsuru The brewer explained carefully and thoroughly about the sake, and of course the sake cup was delicious, but I was reminded of the taste of each sake. The "Jun" was gentle and full of flavor, the "Harushibori" was fresh and powerful, and the "Umeshu" was dessert with a refreshing sweetness!

The sake festival is almost here. The brands scheduled to be exhibited have been listed, and we are now trying to get a good idea of what to look for and how to get around. What a treasure trove. I'm looking forward to it too much. I wonder if Abe and Muskagami will be crowded again. I wonder what limited edition sake I should buy. I'm glad to see that Takarazan is now available in many stores. The label has been redesigned as Takarayama Brewing, and the hiragana "Takarayama" is becoming more visible. Here is a small bottle with Hakuho's design. I like this traditional "Takarayama", character too. It's even faintly there behind the new hiragana label.
