Shigemasu吟のさと 生々純米大吟醸

When I took my wife to a bakery in Itoshima on a trip to Kyushu, I looked in the liquor store next door and found that it sold a variety of Shigemasu, but I was drawn to Gin-no-sato, which is made from sake brewing rice developed by Fukuoka Prefecture, and bought it. 100% Gin-no-sato produced in Yame Polishing ratio 50%. It has a fruity aroma, and in the mouth it has a freshness, a delicious rice flavor and softness, with an inconspicuous but latent sweetness that finishes with a spiciness. It is not the sweet and sour type that I like, but this sake is delicious 😄.

Good morning, soumacho 😃. I remember that I also stopped by Itoshima on my trip to Kyushu 😌 Shige Masu-san is the type of place I like to drink 😅 due to a misunderstanding 😋 Traveling is really good!

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃! I got some sake this time in Itoshima too 😙. I didn't think it was going to be a war of birthplace 💦 at that time. I liked your review of the misunderstanding 😁.

While traveling from Nagasaki City to Fukuoka City on a Kyushu trip, we passed through Kashima City and Ogi City in Saga Prefecture. Since it was a good opportunity, we welcomed Shichida, whose sake brewery is located in Ogi City 😙. Polishing ratio 75 100% Yamada-Nishiki The aroma is strong, and the acidity switches to the umami of the rice. The lingering aftertaste has an alkaline feel to it, making you realize you are drinking sake. However, it is not difficult to drink, but rather easy to drink. Before I knew it, I had already drunk 1 gou of sake, so I added another half gou 😁. The entrée was a mutsugoro (a kind of dried fish) that I bought at Kashima City. Crispy like a rice cracker 🍘. +I had it with harami and it was GOOD with meat 🥩.

Hi, soumacho 😃. Are you traveling from Nagasaki to Fukuoka 🚙? It's quite a distance 😳We drove from Hirado to Fukuoka on our Kyushu trip a few years ago 😌Local sake and local snacks are the best 😋.
Japanese>English
soumacho
Hi Jay & Nobby😄 Our trip is basically by car 🚗. We left Nagasaki city before 9:00 am and arrived Fukuoka city after 16:00 pm because we made many stops including meals on the way down. We enjoy it twice, once on the road and once at home 😁.

When I visited Nagasaki City on a trip to Kyushu, I bought Fukkai, which I was curious about because it had been talked about on YouTube. I was not able to drink alcohol during my stay in Nagasaki City, so I drank it at home to vent my frustration (lol). It has a fruity aroma like pineapple 🍍 and a beautiful sweet acidity that finishes with a bitter bitterness. It is not sharp, well-balanced, and very easy to drink 😊. I drink it cold, but I got it and had it with a hot set of Tachiikawa Chestnut Manju 🌰. The day we bought it, there was a lantern festival in the city, so we went together.

Good morning, soumacho 😃. Fukkai-san got it locally ‼️ It's good to drink at home with a knob to remember your trip 😋. Lantern festival! I love the bright colors 🤗The real thing looks so powerful!

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😄. I've never seen Fukkai in my hometown, so I was after it ✨. I haven't been to Lantern in a decade, but the real thing is awesome 😳.

100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hagi, Yamaguchi Prefecture Polishing ratio 55 Sharp and spicy, with a lingering grape-like fruitiness. I've had Toyo Bijin before, which is made with Yamada Nishiki from Hagi, but it's a completely different story even though it's made with Yamada Nishiki from the same region💦. Reminds me of the wonders of sake🤔. This is why I can't stop 😙.

Hi soumacho 😃

Hi Jay & Nobby😄 Thank goodness we are neighboring prefectures so Yamaguchi sake is readily available or easy to find 😊. I hope to one day decide what is the best sake for me ✨. Right now I have too many candidates to narrow it down😅.

Next was the first time for us, Tsuki no I. It was served warm. The aroma was mellow. It has a classic flavor with a caramel-like mouthfeel. It is not too spicy and goes well with meat dishes. The entrée was saikyo yaki (grilled momiji pork) and crispy fried chicken skin.

Today I am having a drink with my colleagues. There was a Bida that I tried to order at a different restaurant before but they were out of stock, so I ordered it. It has a freshness and a sweet acidity that I like. The aftertaste is like muscat or white grapes and finishes with bitterness, so it's a quintessential Mita 😊. Ate with kampachi sashimi: 🐟️

I visited several stores in Kyushu on my trip and managed to get this product while they were all sold out. When I went to the store on January 31, I was shocked to be told that it was sold out immediately in the morning 😳💦. I went to another store with a later opening time and found a line of several people waiting before the store opened.... As soon as the store opened, I looked for it and another person found it and I was able to purchase it 😊. Everyone was looking for the San-Do before the store opened that day. They use an ancient rice called Kako. When the bottle was opened, there was a loud pong ‼️ sound. The aroma was not that strong, and when I sipped it, it had a fizzy and bubbly taste, with sweetness and citrus-like acidity. The taste of rice can be felt well, and the flavor lingers in the aftertaste while a little bitterness is added to finish it off. It was my first time drinking this wine, but it was as good as its reputation. I had a hard time getting it, and the delicious taste made me feel attached to it 😄. I hope to encounter it again 🤔🍶. The entrée was a parade of dried horse mackerel, takana rice, boiled tofu and pickled crab 👊.

Good evening, soumacho. Congratulations on your first birthplace 🎉. It's not easy to buy it locally either 😲. But it's really delicious ⤴️ I haven't had Kako and Hozasu yet, so I hope to meet them someday😊.

Good evening, ma-ki! It was naive to think that at least one brand would be available in Kyushu 😵. Hiroshima doesn't have any special distributors (although one store rarely has them). I plan to jump on it when I see it in the future 🎵🏃.

Hi soumacho 😃 We went to a liquor store without knowing it and it was so crowded that we went with the flow and bought it before we knew it 😅I guess that's why it's so good ‼️

Hi Jay & Nobby😄 The liquor store in Kumamoto said that they can't do layaway, but if you contact them in advance, they can let you know if they have it in stock or not. I am grateful that they let me buy it on my first visit. The taste is very unique and delicious 😊.

At a motsunabe restaurant in Tenjin, Fukuoka City. The second station was Tanaka 65 at the time the main motsunabe came. 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Itoshima Polishing ratio 65 This time, Rokujugo is a draft sake. The aroma is fresh, and the mouthfeel is pleasantly bitter and sharp with a balance of moderate sweetness and acidity 🍶. It goes well with sesame mackerel sashimi and neutralizes the grittiness of the fat in the motsu nabe 😙. I finished one cup in no time 😄.

Kyushu trip to Tenjin, Fukuoka City. We had some time before dinner, so we went to a corner bar 🏃 while my wife and daughter went to eat sweets. They had Wakanami on tap, so I had it 🍶. The taste was fresh. It has a slight sweetness and rice flavor with a nice acidity that lingers until the end. It is a honjozo, but it was delicious. The person next to me approached me and we had a nice sake talk, even though we didn't have much time 😄. Kaku-uchi fun: ‼️

Hello, soumacho 🐦! So after Kumamoto, you're going to Fukuoka? It's great that you don't waste even a little bit of time 😆 Kaku-uchi, it's nice to be able to drink and talk casually with all the sake lovers 🎶. Wakanami has a great Honjozo 😊.

Hi Pon 😃. Thanks for your comment ✨ I'm actually between Kumamoto and Nagasaki 🚗. I couldn't drink on the second day, so I got 3 bottles of Nagasaki sake with that in mind 😙. I want to try a lot of Wakanami 🎵.

The final touch is the fragrance of flowers. 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Kumamoto Prefecture 50% Koji rice, 50% Kake rice Gorgeous aroma like melon. When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness and acidity are not flashy, and it finishes with a nice bitterness. The entrées are nameko mushrooms, nigirizushi, and horse sashimi. Sushi complements raw meat well. The combination with horse sashimi is especially GOOD👍.

Polishing ratio 55 Yamada-Nishiki is used. The taste of rice comes in quickly, and the spiciness finishes off the palate. Like Kyuyo Masamune, this sake uses Kumamoto yeast, but the type of yeast is completely different. Ichimoji guruji and octopus tempura 🐙 for entrée.

The second cup was Kuyou Masamune. Kumamoto Sake Brewing Research Institute is probably better known for its Kumamoto yeast, Koroh. Polishing ratio 65%. This sake has a fruity aroma and a firm sweetness, with a little bitterness added in the aftertaste. I quite liked the taste 🎵. The entrée was 5 kinds of horse sashimi, and since I was hungry, I also had fried rice with takana (Chinese cabbage) 🐎. The combination with horse sashimi is good 👍. The combination with deep-fried spicy lotus root emphasized the spiciness, so it may be different for different tastes 🤔.

I worked most of the year end and new year, so I am now on winter break. Today is my planned trip to Kyushu 🚗. The first day we went to Kumamoto City. We went to a restaurant where we could drink local sake and eat local cuisine. The first cup was a sake called Hibari made by the Tsujun Sake Brewery in Yamato-cho, Kumamoto Prefecture 🍶. The rice is polished to 65%. The rice is grown in Yamato Town. The aroma is not strong, and when you take a sip, it goes down smoothly, then it finishes with a bitter taste. It goes well with strong dishes. The entrée is steamed deep-fried spicy lotus root and clams with butter.
