I found a place in Kumamoto where you can drink all the sake you want for 1,000 yen per 30 minutes.
They have a full lineup. I took my revenge on the sake I couldn't find in Oita! It's delicious!

The restaurant was full on that day, so the manager suggested that we make a reservation and we did!

Now, work and study!

What is the gravity system?
After the vatting, the sake is not first collected in a dripping jar, but is moved directly to a vat at the bottom of the hill by gravity alone, without using a pump. The next day, the sake is bottled in a clean room. The next day, the sake is bottled in a clean room. This system minimizes stress on the liquid, allowing the sake to be bottled as it is, with all its original qualities.
What is "Shin Gin Seibai"?
Shin Gin Mai is a method of milling rice that efficiently removes proteins from the surface layer of the rice, leaving the necessary components by shaving the rice in the direction of its thickness. Even if the rice polishing ratio is the same, sake made with "Shin-Gin" rice has a lighter and cleaner flavor.

Sour, such a sake, so it is well remembered!
I didn't know there was such a sake.
extensive knowledge
It is made from Chiba Prefecture's Fusakogane rice with a 77% milling ratio and No. 7 yeast. It has a grapefruit-like isoamyl acetate aroma, and this year it was made a little sweeter for early drinking. On top of that, you can enjoy the sharpness of its characteristic acidity and the slight carbonation that is typical of direct bottling. It has more sweetness and acidity than usual, and has a three-dimensional, clear taste.

The sake with the Fukuda name has been newly reborn as Fukuumi!
I've had Fukuda once, but this is the first time I've had Fukuumi.
It was not in the registered name of Sake-no-wa!

It is not a very strong sake.

Another Kumamoto sake is this one, Nana Junmai-shu.
It seems to be a sub-brand of Zuitaka.
This is another dry sake in the same genre as the previous Cicada, but a little heavier!
Let's finish Kumamoto sake at this point!
We have a lot of interesting sake to try!
Knowledge
The name of this sake comes from the fact that it is made from "Rape Blossom Rice, Gin-no-sato," which is made from the residue of rapeseed seeds harvested in the spring and then rolled into manure to create healthy soil that does not require herbicides, and organic fertilizer made from the lees of rapeseed seeds.

Since they had a lot of Kumamoto sake on hand, let's try to compare them!
Unfortunately, they did not have any Kumamoto sake!
There were some brands that we had tried before, so let's compare the first ones!
I liked the name of Semi Junmai Ginjo, so I decided to try one type 🆗.
It is a Junmai Ginjo, so there is no bitterness, but as expected, it is a little heavy!
It also goes down your throat nicely!
Sipping it while eating stick dumplings!
This restaurant has a wide variety of sake cups!
With this small beer glass, you can have just a little bit of what you want to drink!
After you finish drinking, you can wash the beer glass with the large glass of "peace water" that was brought to us and dilute your body with the water.
Now, we still have a lot of sake to drink, so let's get started!

We compared it with Kurei's Houou Mita Heki-ban Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Hon Nama.
I bought this at a liquor store in Hakodate in the past and drank it alone at a hotel.
It has a little more sweetness than Kurei.
I love it!
There is a room in the back of the store that is entirely air-conditioned and lined with bottles of sake like this!
The detailed descriptions of the sake are a great way to learn about sake that you don't know about.
It's a good preparation for what I'm going to study tomorrow 📚.
The two guests in front of us were in this room at the same time choosing their sake.
They asked me which sake was the best, and I answered Kurei and Houou Mita without hesitation!

First time in Kumamoto in a really long time
Two nights of work and study!
Kumamoto is known for its shochu (Japanese liquor), but we were looking for a place to drink sake.
We called this restaurant to check the availability and the rules of the restaurant.
Check the location and first eat ramen at a nearby Kumamoto ramen shop
And buy some stick dumplings as a souvenir 🥟.
There were two customers ahead of me and I was the second customer.
The friendly female waitress gives me a lesson on how to drink the store's alcohol.
Let's get started: ▶️
Local Kumamoto sake is in the middle, and other sake from all over the country are arranged in order from north to south!
The two that caught my eye right away were this and this!
Kure Junmai Ginjo CEL Ura, raw and unpasteurized!
I'll spare you the detailed description.
This sake was full of pineapple flavor, just the way I like it!
Pair it with dumplings!
