Purchased from the brewery
Thick, with a robust sweetness and umami. The aftertaste is bitter with a group fruitiness. It is delicious with a slight effervescence.
The fifth and last bottle of the visit to Tsuruoka City
Purchased at a supermarket since there is no direct sales from the brewery.
It has a delicious fruity aroma and sweet and sour taste.
It also tastes a little fizzy.
I would have liked to buy a 4-ounce bottle if it was available.
In Tsuruoka City, two breweries were closed so we couldn't buy it, so we tried again on a different day of the week.
Purchase of a warehouse
This is the fourth brewery on a tour of four breweries in the Daisen area of Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture.
The last one was sold directly to the public.
It was served in a wine glass, as it was awarded the gold medal in the "2024 Wineglass Sake Award".
When this is written, my impression is pulled and I feel it is like white wine.
But it was delicious with a grape-like sweetness.
Only one brewery sells directly to the public.
There are four breweries in a small area, so I think they should be able to attract more people if they do well.
Keep up the good work, Daisen: ‼️
Third of four breweries in the Daisen area of Tsuruoka City
This is also the third brewery in a row that does not sell directly to the public.
We didn't even know where the brewery was, so we went around in circles and finally found a sign. Here it is: ‼️
The aroma is like a thin white grape juice, and the taste is crisp, dry, and easy to drink.
The sake
The second of four breweries in the Daisen area of Tsuruoka City
The second brewery in the Oyama area of Tsuruoka City.
I was so shocked that I forgot to take a picture.
We had no choice but to buy it at a supermarket in the city.
It has a fruity aroma and a freshness that stands out.
It is delicious with a good balance of sweetness and sharpness.
Tour of four breweries in the Daisen area of Tsuruoka City.
Signs are posted. There is also a parking lot across the street. I thought they were doing it, but the sign said, "No sales.
We had no choice but to buy it at a supermarket in the city.
The moment I opened the bottle, the sweet fruit aroma and grape-like sweetness made it very tasty. It is dangerous to drink too much.
The word "gorgeous" on the label fits perfectly.
I envy the citizens of Tsuruoka who can buy this sake at the supermarket.
Purchase of the warehouse
The brewery is designated as a cultural asset and has a magnificent appearance.
They did not have any sake on tap.
The brewery uses local Gohyakumangoku sake produced in Yuki City.
It is dry and has a strong rice flavor.
It has a bitter taste like group fruit, but no sourness.
Brewery purchase
Okabe, Fujieda City, where Gon Nakayama was born (he is of this generation), must have been drinking Hatsukame.
I had a drink with my eldest son for the first time in a long time.
It is dry and goes down your throat easily. The taste and mouthfeel make it easy to savor for a long time.
My eldest son, who has a divine tongue, says it tastes like the core of an apple.
I don't understand...
Hi Jay & Nobby.
Were you the same generation? I know you were excited about Gong's hot play.
I didn't feel the fruitiness of the first turtle, but when I asked my oldest son if he felt the fruitiness, this was his answer.
Brewery purchase
The brewery is very close to the sea. Is there any influence of seawater?
It is delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. The thickening of the sake enhances the sweetness. The aftertaste is dry.
I remember that the Aizan I drank before was also delicious. I wonder if Aizan is a good match for it.
It is not sold at the brewery, so I bought it at a nearby supermarket.
It is crisp and dry.
It has a delicious rice flavor and goes well with meals.
The bitterness and astringency in the aftertaste are also good.
Purchase at the warehouse
Sold in the office on the 2nd floor. Pick up is in front of the warehouse on the first floor.
A clean storefront is good for easy selection, but this kind of atmosphere is more like direct sales.
Dry and refreshing.
It is easy to drink and tastes good with fruit aroma and sweetness.
A souvenir from my son's visit to Dogo Onsen.
The taste of rice can be felt and it is delicious. It is said to be dry, but it is also sweet and refreshing.
Purchase at the brewery
Sake brewery located near the Hongu Sengen Taisha shrine on Mt.
Fuji. ‼️
Fuji spring water is gushing out from the pond in the precincts of the shrine.
It is sweet and fruity, but as usual, I cannot tell what kind of fruit it is.
It is also astringent and Japanese fruit-like.
Purchased at a supermarket in Shizuoka City since it was not sold at the brewery.
A sake brewery that moved from Shizuoka to Okayama has made a comeback.
It has a good balance of sweetness and tangy spiciness at the moment of drinking.
Brewery purchase
This brewery has a beautiful view of Mt.
Fuji, but this is the only one with a straightforward "Mt.
The first sip is dry, but the sweetness spreads in the mouth.
The alcohol content is indicated as 15 degrees Celsius, but it is easy to get drunk very quickly.
Purchase of a Sake Brewery
This is the third bottle of Shizuoka sake.
There were many brands with "Nishiki" in the name, so I continued to drink them.
When I asked for a sweet sake, I was told that Shizuoka sake is dry, and this was recommended among them.
He recommended this one, which he said was made by an accidental addition of yeast from the brewery and aged to taste like white wine.
When I tried it, I found that it really tasted like a white wine with its acidity and sweetness.
I would love to drink it again, but since it was created by accident, I doubt I will ever be able to drink it again.
Purchased from a warehouse
Sweet.
It is thick and has the sweetness of rice. There is an astringent aftertaste.
The brewery has a good view of Mt.
Fuji, and the beautiful water, which seemed to come from the spring of Mt.
I wondered if the sake was made with this water.
Bought at a warehouse
A little spicy, but it has a good rice taste and leaves a good aftertaste on the palate.
It has a refreshing aftertaste when paired with salty foods.
It is a small brewery and I have never seen it sold in Saitama Prefecture.
The lineup is small, but it seems to be carefully produced.
