University of Tsukuba's sake, Kiri no Hana Junmai Ginjo. In 2009, Professor Hiroo Uchiyama's laboratory at the Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences collected sake yeast isolated from paulownia flowers, which led to the production of the university-branded sake in cooperation with Raifuku Sake Brewery. Paulownia is also used as the University of Tsukuba's emblem, "53 paulownia trees. I didn't know they could get sake yeast. That's amazing! The color is slightly golden, The aroma is fresh, apple-like, and floral, It has sweetness, astringency, and acidity like white wine, It is dry, crisp and refreshing without being harsh, Delicious. I went to the University of Tsukuba's school festival and had the world's best coffee jelly at a café not far from the huge grounds (it was indeed delicious!). ), and when I looked at souvenirs at the supermarket next door, I found this sake. I didn't have time to stop by a liquor store, so it was a nice souvenir. === Sake Ingredients:Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic) Rice: Ibaraki Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol content: 16%. 1,815 yen for 720ml === The price ★★★★☆☆☆

Delicious. When I checked the blended sake breweries, I found that each of them had their own unique flavor, but at the same time, each of them had their own unique flavor.

Today is the day of the Niigata Sake Gold Master, the practical test! It's finally here! I got myself in shape in the morning, and based on my previous reflections, I have been concentrating on my hopes! It's been a while since I've practiced sake tasting with room temperature, fire-brewed sake, so it's been a while since I've had any draft sake! Brilliantly fruity acidity with a firm rice aroma, It has a gorgeous fruity acidity with a firm rice aroma and a silky smooth mouthfeel. The acidity is very strong and heavy, The mellow, rich flavor of nama-shu, The fresh bitterness lingers gently in the aftertaste. It is delicious and thick! Take notes as you have practiced, Do not drink water immediately before or during the tasting, Lick a little sake beforehand... I heard that the first alcoholic drink of the day makes you feel stronger. I chose Kubota, which I am used to drinking. The test, I think I did well! Last time I had no idea... but this time I know (I think) how to distribute the time! I'm looking forward to the results. I wonder what kind of sake it was! This weekend is the Echigo Kenshin SAKE Festival! This sake was a hometown tax return gift from Joetsu City, which I ordered together with the ticket! === Sake Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Rice: Gohyakumangoku produced in Niigata Prefecture Rice polishing ratio: 60 Alcohol content: 18%. 1,430 yen per 720ml === The price ★★★★☆☆☆

Some of them have grown up, some are born, some are dead, some are married, some are divorced. It was interesting to see them because we don't meet them unless we have such an opportunity.

Is this true? If so, I think this is the right sake to drink. It is said that you should not drink water, but I am not sure. I wonder...it might bring back the taste of the previous drink. === Ingredients Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic), brewers' alcohol Rice: Gohyakumangoku produced in Niigata Prefecture Polishing ratio: 50% for koji rice, 55% for kake rice Alcohol content: 15 Sake degree: +5.0 Acidity: 1.1 1,320 yen for 720ml === ★★★★☆
