Takarayama Brewery is back! Takarayama, which was reborn as Takarayama Brewery, resumed sales at the brewery on November 1, so I took a quick peek. The store was still deserted, but there was a lineup of sake that had been made this year and plenty of amazake in the fridge. I bought a few bottles of Shinnosuke, which won the 2024 Kura Master Platinum Award for its rice bag label, and some amazake. The proprietress told us a lot about the bankruptcy proceedings. She said that they are still unable to reopen the lotion bottles using pure rice sake. It's still a tough time, isn't it? I'm rooting for them! The proprietress also enjoys talking about the manga "Moyashimon". Dark, sweet and sour fruity aroma, The silky and smooth mouthfeel. Strong rice aroma and rich sweetness, The refreshing acidity and astringency It tastes like an elegant wine, It tastes like it would go well with cheese, It has a clear, mellow and delicious taste, It is delicious.

In July, I was shocked to see the news of Hozan Brewery's bankruptcy proceedings. I had hoped that they would be able to take over the business and continue, but it seems that the decision was made the other day. Although it is a really small brewery, it has won many awards for its sake using rice rice such as Koshihikari and Shinnosuke, various kinds of delicious fruity amazake, drinkable sake lotion, and sake brewery tours by the famous proprietress, all of which I thought would be around forever, are suddenly gone, and I feel sad. Thank goodness... The sake brewery hadn't reopened for sales and such yet, but I'd like to visit again. This is Koshihikari Junmai Ginjo-shu from the June brewery. This old Masu (sake cup) with an old design of Hozan was given to me by the proprietress. I savor the sake with sincerity. The aroma of the Masu's cypress wood is fragrant, and the Koshihikari rice aroma and ginjo aroma are clean and crisp, The smooth taste is sweet and smooth, The mouthfeel is smooth and smooth, with a firm sweetness and a deep, slightly astringent flavor, The bitter, spicy, slightly dry taste in the back of the throat is delicious.
