Last month, after visiting the brewery, I bought it at a directly-managed store. When I asked about Kubota's most aromatic product, I was told it was Junmai Daiginjo. It has a high aroma and flavor. It is a modern Kubota, different from Niigata's light and dry Kubota. It is as expected!
This Omachi is freshly pressed and bottled directly from the bottle. It has a fresh, slightly effervescent taste, but it is deliciously thick and acidic!
In June of 2012, I purchased a product with a January 19 date. It was sold in a refrigerated case at a liquor store as aged sake for the unbeatable price of 1,500 yen per bottle. I asked about it and was told that it was old at worst, but that it had been stored in a 0-degree refrigerator in the back of the store, so if it was in good condition, it would be a good deal. I bought it without hesitation and tasted it. As expected, it was in good condition. It was a good purchase. It was a good buy.
This is a sake distributed only in Tochigi Prefecture by Kobayashi Shuzo, the brewer of Houou Mita. Less aromatic than Houou Mita, but with the same sweetness of rice. Junmai-shu, heated in a bottle.
It has a fresh aroma of hinoki cypress barrels, a sweet and sour taste, and a sense of sizzle that is only possible with nama-shu. It soaks into your tired body.
Precious Murayu. Tasted for the first time with the dark blue Ruri label. It is sweet but elegant and crisp. I now understand why it is called Wasanbon. It was easy to drink.
A brewery in Tatebayashi, the hometown of Bumpuku Chagama. It is a commemorative sake for the opening of a new supermarket. It has a koji aroma and is crisp and dry.
This is a limited nigori sake from Kirinzan that requires refrigeration. When we opened the bottle, it almost spilled and we rushed to cork it. After settling down, I opened the bottle. The supernatant was a slightly effervescent yogurt. After stirring, it naturally became sweeter and richer. It has a sharpness that makes you feel that it is indeed Kirinzan. After that, let it settle down and taste the supernatant, and finally enjoy the rich sweet and umami sharpness. We were told to drink it as soon as possible after opening the bottle, and finished the 720 ml bottle in 40 minutes.
