A sake brewery located in Yamanaka Onsen! Features a refreshing sake with no off-flavors!
There was a paid drinking comparison!
Mukaku The clean new sake
Sake Mirai - a very clean food sake!
I thought the Mirai would be appreciated with a meal, but if you compare it with the new sake without any snacks, you will be defeated by the richness of the flavor!
It's been a very long time since I've been to Hanagaki! I couldn't go to Kaga last week, so I couldn't get the Kikuyu I was looking forward to buying... My heart was stuck in a certain desire...
I want to drink a big glass of sake.
On my day off, I scoured the internet for information, and after much agonizing at the liquor store, I came across the Hanagaki Junmai Unfiltered Sake with Different Rice Series! I had never had Kame-no-o sake before, so I chose this one!
Fruity aroma coming from the glass...☺️ When you hold it in your mouth...it's sweet! After that, strong acidity, high alcohol and astringency comes and finishes it off! Sweet and spicy! As expected of an 18% sake!
I was actually put off by the price, but after tasting it, I made an immediate decision. I would like to buy other sake rice varieties if I see them.
Kame-no-o, before drinking sake, I had no idea it was active in sake rice. It is mind-boggling to think that if this rice had not been found, Koshihikari would not have been born. I see that it is also in the Gohyakumangoku lineage.
I carefully drank it all up over the course of a month!
It's a raw sake, but it's stable and still has a fresh sweetness that is certainly as fresh as the day it was opened!
Encounter with the famous Senkou!
Tropical aroma with a hint of banana! The sweetness is moderate and the mouthfeel is clean and slightly carbonated! Beautiful acidity 🥰So it seems to be a sake brewer, but I wonder how they do it!
I am grateful for this freshness in a fire-roasted sake! I saw the willpower of a top brewery!
Good morning, Termat 😃.
Congratulations on your first Senkou and your first Tochigi embed㊗️🎉I didn't know the word "encounter" and googled it 😅It's a nice word 😌I'll pretend I know it somewhere and use it 😄.
Hi Jay and Nobby 😃.
Encounter! LOL Yes, if I think about it, I think I've only seen it in the lyrics lol.
I enjoyed the Senkori! I can also get Tochigi sake here, Houou Mita, so I'll try that next time 🥰.
First contact with a famous brand! But we will have it straight from the cup, out of respect for the fact that it is packed in a cup.
Oooh! What a beautiful one-cup XXeki! LOL The retro rice sake feel is definitely in the backbone, but it's delicious to sip thanks to the clean sake quality! That simple girl who always cheerfully serves you at the bar is actually a pure actress! It's like that kind of sake.
This sake is a good introduction for those who want to get used to retro sake and become a drinker! This sake is definitely a good introduction for those who want to get used to retro sake and become a drinker!
The expensive one of Ippongi! I've never drunk anything higher than Jungin before because I've always had a bit of a problem with Ichihongi.
The aroma is quite gorgeous and sweet! The sharpness is still there, but I'm surprised that this kind of sake is also available.
It is delicious, with no cloying taste, and the Fukuro-hozuri (hanging in a pouch) technique really comes to life!
The fact that the brewery's highest-grade sake is Sakahomare instead of Yamadanishiki is also a good sign of the consistency of the philosophy.
For various reasons, he could not go to Kaga!
My mouth was craving something mellow, so I chose Bon for the first time in a while. I haven't tasted it since Hiyahoroshi. It's delicious, isn't it?
It has an aroma and sweetness like Oreo! The introduction says it has a fruity flavor, but I don't think there is any fruit to describe it.
I have the impression that some brands of Brahma are too sweet, but this one is easy to drink. Moreover, it is a delightful 17 degrees Celsius! It is a must for drinkers.
It is more suitable for a stand-alone drink than for a mealtime drink. There is really no acidity.
When I first started drinking sake, my impression was that it was sweet, but in fact, it is quite unique, isn't it? It is a fruity sweetness that is definitely different from the trendy modern type. The temperature of low-temperature aging is also different depending on the brand, so I would like to compare them.
I didn't know it was available here too!
Sweet and tasty! It's fresh and ☺️ stable!
The aroma is not very long, but I think it will be different if you drink it cold.
The second day, the bitterness is also good!
Surviving a tough rest day!
Tetorigawa, an Ishikawa limited edition! It was a light and tasty sake with a "Yamahai" taste! It was a light, refreshing and delicious sake. After a few days, it seemed to have become rather modern.
I'm going to Kaga this weekend, so I'm not sure what to buy...
Bong! The bottle is ready to be opened! I finally found a bottle of Tsunezan Tobi Nama Sake! I was looking forward to it since Tobi is my favorite (very dry) sake 😊.
The punchiness derived from the overwhelming sharpness of Tobi is still there! The sake level is supposed to be very high, but strangely enough, it also has a sweet and umami taste! The nama-zake-like quality is best expressed in the strength of the carbonation. It is a dry jungin, but it satisfies the luxurious desire for a fruity taste!
It can be enjoyed with food, but thanks to its complex body, it is also an excellent sake that can be enjoyed on its own. If you like Tsuneyama, you should definitely try it!
This is a limited edition sake bought at the Kubota Sake Brewery opening! New Yamada Nishiki selected by Fukui Prefectural University is used.
Strong ginjo aroma! Sweet and easy to drink, but not modern! Delicious!
On the second day, this is a drinkable yogurt!
Tsuneyama at the store! Sake to be released in Risshun
It has a strong "schwarziness" feeling! It is peachy and greef-like. It's about a medium saké. A sake that can be drunk in large gulps!
I'd love to enjoy it at home sometime! But there are too many sake (Tsuneyama alone has several) that I'd like to try these days!
Tsuneyama is very good at using Sakahomare, isn't it? I wonder if they will include Sakahomare in their main lineup as their production volume increases?
The place where I am drinking today is easy to use for small parties, and also easy to use for a one-person drinking party! There are 11 kinds of regular drinks including Koryu Junginya and Dawn, and about 3 seasonal products. There is no snack if you are just one person, and it is located next to Fukui Station, so it is easy to use!
I had seen some of my predecessors in the sake drinking community in Fukui reviewing it with rave reviews, so I was quite curious about this brand, and finally had a chance to drink it!
I had imagined it would have a retro flavor, but it has a fruity aroma on the palate! I was convinced that it would be a good choice to drink at the festival, so I bought it and am drinking it now. I wonder if the sake level is really this high? It is quite sweet and spicy just right. It is high in alcohol content, but it doesn't feel like alcohol.
It's a junmai with a deep nostalgia, and it seems to be popular with sake drinkers of all ages. This brewery has a wide range of sake. The mainstay Daiginjo and Jungin (Isshu-kyojo) are sometimes retro.
The sake is good and the cloth labels are beautiful! I wonder if they are making a profit? I don't think I've ever seen it outside of Sakai City, so I'd love to buy some as a souvenir. I remember seeing it at the Happirin Fukunin Ki near the station.
I drink it with an Echizen ware sake cup, but I would like to try it with various types of sake cups.
Jungin from the same brewery! It is also the title of a comic book.
It is a type of sake that has nothing to draw you in, and although it may be too light on its own, it is a perfect sake for a meal!
Kubota Sake Brewery opens its brewery to the public! Sake of a class you can't usually afford is also available at a discount!
Just the right amount of sweet and sour! Happy drinking in the morning!
Well, I don't know where to go with this...
The waiter says, "The bottle is a flat rate of 3,400 yen!" Wai "Yes! Do you have any liquor at almost cost price? Waitress "😂" Store is not listed? I don't know....
So this is the new MOROHAKU-chan that we unexpectedly encountered.
Opened the bottle! It makes a nice sound...
Shinmorohaku is a new product from 2025, and it is a nice assemblage!
Well, Mr. Tsuneyama, isn't this a very well-targeted taste? Blended and assembled from several rice varieties, this is definitely a sake that will appeal to everyone, but it's also very ...... calm, and I feel that it's delicious, in a Kuroryu way. I feel the "I'm good, aren't I?" feeling, in the Koryu style. Chilled - chilled, no doubt.
The man I drank it with will be hooked on the Tsuneyama swamp from now on. Here's to the dawn of a new 2024BY!
Purchased on recommendation from a liquor store in Kaga, Ishikawa! A fresh and robust new sake with a strong sweet and sour taste from the famous Noto sake brewer, Kazuma Shuzo!
It was a direct response to my request for a robust sake!
Also, the label is really nice! Metallic bamboo 🎋.
