Timeline
ニルたろうIt is a nigori, effervescent and very gorgeous sake. The taste, aroma, and mouthfeel of this sake, which is the result of a new production method, are a tip of the hat to the brewer. It was the kind of sake I would like to keep on hand. ニルたろうBeetle vs. Stag Beetle was a close win for the Stag Beetle. The two wines had the same flavor, aroma, and sharpness, but the stag beetle had a richer and more gorgeous lingering aftertaste. The showdown continued after this. 
ヒロHome drinking.
I bought this at Shimadaya Sake Shop near Utsunomiya Station on my way home from "Tochigi Local Sake Cheers Festa 2024".
After all, you can't miss Nanamizu 🤗.
Since it was a special occasion, I tamed it a bit before opening it. Having my favorite sake in the fridge makes me feel more relaxed 😊.
When I opened the bottle, I could smell the aroma of strawberry 🍓. This smell is already great.
The color is clear.
The mouthfeel is slightly carbonated and choisy🫧🫧.
The taste is sweet like strawberry🍓, mixed with sourness.
It is like drinking fruit juice🍹.
The aftertaste is bitter and delicious, with a strong aftertaste.
Compared to the other version of Y2, it feels less transparent. Instead, it has a mellow, rich flavor and aroma 😊.
I would love to drink this sake again 🍶😆. ジェイ&ノビィHi Hiro 😃
It's a relief to have seven waters in the fridge 🤗.
We've never had it in Kochira 🥲 but I'm sure you're right 😋. ヒロHi Jay & Nobby, ☀️
Y3 is a sake 🍶 that I would always keep a bottle of if it were available in Tokyo 😁.
Unfortunately, I've never seen it in Tokyo liquor stores 😭 
ヒロStore drinking.
This is "Shimadaya Sake Shop Miyamirai".
While waiting for the Shinkansen, we had a quick drink to compare three kinds of Tochigi sake.
On the right.
The horse is wearing sunglasses 😎.
Tochigi's sake has a very aggressive label 🤩.
Sake rice is 100% Asahi no Yume
The color is clear, and the aroma is slight.
On the palate, there is a heavy bitterness and light umami from the rice.
The aftertaste has a slight crispness to it.
The end of the taste is like a wisp of smoke.
It is an exhilarating sake that makes you feel as if you are riding a horse through a meadow. ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Hiro 😃.
We moved from Festa to Shimadaya and while waiting for the bullet train, we are enjoying Tochigi sake drinking ‼️ Utsunomiya to the fullest 🤗Great👍! ヒロGood morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
We drank Tochigi sake 🍶 to our heart's content 😄.
Thanks to you, we were able to enjoy Utsunomiya to the fullest: ❗️ つぶちゃんHi Hiro😄
Amazing! Even after the fiesta, we still have a Tochigi sake drinking contest 😆👏 👏 I'm a wonderful handsome Tochigi lover 🥰.
Let's join us next time you come 😉. ことりGood morning, Hiro-san 🐥.
I like the fact that you can have a kakuchi here, and that there is a good selection of local sake from all over the country for a place of this size 😉 I wonder if you bought any souvenirs 🤭. ヒロHi Kotori, ☀️
The selection was amazing, I counted the sake I wanted to try and it was more than I could drink 😄.
If there was one in my neighborhood, I would go there 😆.
I made sure to buy some Nanamizu, which I couldn't buy at the brewery, as a souvenir👍. ヒロStore drinking.
This is "Shimadaya Sake Shop Miyamirai".
We had a quick drink while waiting for the Shinkansen.
Three kinds of Tochigi sake 😄
This is the middle one.
100% Tochigi rice
The color is clear, with a slight yellowish tinge....
The aroma is a faint sweet smell.
In the mouth, there is no sweet taste, but mild nutty taste. Like if you mix peanuts with a mixer❓🤔.
Hard to give an analogy 😓.
The aftertaste exudes the flavor of rice 🌾.
Mild ginjo aroma, and the umami of rice 🌾 expands together.
The mouthfeel is soft and the finish is gentle.
You can taste the rice flavor and the careful craftsmanship of this sake. ヒロStore drinking.
This is "Shimadaya Sake Shop MIYAMIRAI".
We had a quick drink while waiting for the Shinkansen.
Time is limited, but I want to drink a variety of sake, so I chose the Tochigi sake 3 kinds comparison.
Left.
The rice used for the sake is 100% Yamada-Nishiki from District A.
I am sure the special A district is from Hyogo Prefecture.
The color is clear.
There is a faint scent of rice.
The taste has the umami of rice, plus a bit of bitterness.
The aftertaste is sweet with a hint of rice.
The finish is good.
Light and refreshing sake. ことりIt has a clear, mellow, and smooth taste reminiscent of 🍎. When chilled, it has a refreshing acidity, and at room temperature it is a deliciously sweet 🍎 taste.
It has a refined taste that sinks in easily. なのは(名芭）SAKE to SAKE
The 2nd or 3rd party of the "SAKE to SAKE"?
Kagoshima, I was wondering why the map was not filled in,
There it is!
I'm sorry I don't remember it...
I thought it had a good taste.
Kagoshima - We did it! We got it! ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Nanoha 😃.
Quintessential Prefectural Association sympathizer! You raised it at the same time 🤗Congratulations on the Kagoshima paint ❗️ at Tenpyo 🎉You should drink it again, it's delicious 😋 though a bit expensive 😅. なのは(名芭）Good evening, J&N-san! I see, it's so delicious... I'm so disappointed... (>д<;) I'll try one more time! 
ジェイ&ノビィI was wondering if I should bring the 401st bottle to Kiri, Ona-san ‼️ and the first bottle after Kiri, too, with Tochigi sake 😉.
Let's have it 🎵
Wow 😌Fresh sweet aroma ☺️
The first sip is sweet and tasty with a touch of bitterness 😋 As Takeshita says, you can feel the deliciousness of the rice 🤗.
We were worried that the sweetness of Aizan might be too strong for us 😅It was sweet but the rich umami prevailed 😅❗️ and after a few days, the sweetness faded and the umami increased 👍
By the way, as I mentioned in my previous post, the place where I took this picture is a park where we often go walking.
It takes us about 1 hour to walk 3 laps around the 2km course surrounded by trees 🤗.
Whenever we can go 😋 for a good drink, we promise to raise our self-esteem with this walk before starting the party😅.
A gentle forest that protects us from the strong sun ☀️ and even shelters us from a little rain ☂️. 🌳Maybe it will be named J&N forest soon 🤣.
There were quite a lot of people walking around 💦I took some photos of the sake while trying to be seen, but I think the red label of Ona looked good against the autumn leaves☺️
Tochigi love 🥰 from Mida🟦 to Ohna🟥. さしゅーJay & Nobby, it's Ona's Aizan😄I was curious about it too but didn't buy it (crying) I was wondering how Aizan would be involved with Ona's sharpness. I will buy it next year (lol) Walking is good! ヤスベェGood evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
You are indeed a Tochigi lover 😀.
I've been drinking more Tochigi sake lately due to JN's influence, but I haven't reached Ona yet 😅.
I also walk at least 10 km everyday to drink in peace! たっく0103Good evening Jay & Nobby 😄Good evening walking in the woods, I also walk on my days off, but I avoid walking by the woods because bears still seem to be hanging around in the winter 😅Ohna looks delicious, and love mountains 😋. 新舘幸樹I have never had this drink, but this copy is so good I had to comment. ⤴️ マミオHi Jay & Nobby, Good evening ⭐The secret to staying healthy and in shape is exercise ✨You're pretty fast paced 😳.
If it's Ona, Aisan looks refreshingly delicious😍I'll be in Utsunomiya next weekend again, so if I see it, I'll buy it 😁. ちょびんJay & Nobby, here too.
Good evening 😅
Ona is also well balanced and delicious ❗️
I love Tochigi sake😍.
I'm going to go end of year shopping next week.
I'm planning to buy BLACK Phoenix raw sake 😃. ジャイヴGood evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛I'm really interested in this drink because it's a candidate for the "Killi" number 😁.
Exercise is also important to enjoy a good drink, I try to exercise before and after drinking ✨.
6k per hour is a good pace 🚶. MantaJay & Nobby, good evening ^ ^.
LOVE Tochigi, L❤️VE Aisan👍
I love the bright red label and Ona, nice!
I've been gaining weight lately, maybe I should start walking 😁. 3KAN4ONGood morning, Jay & Nobby 😋.
I see that you have recently joined the photography club and are very into taking pictures at the most interesting spots 👍.
I'm wondering if you walked 6km with a 4-gallon bottle on your back 😅. Rafa papaGood morning Jay & Nobby😃.
Beautiful pictures 😊Drinking after a self-affirmation 😳⁉️ I think I used to do it back in the day, but not at all anymore... 😅 森人くりGood morning, J&N.
You are indeed a local 🤟🤟
Your photo is also beautiful with the Ona label and the autumn leaves🍁 in the background. ☺️
Walking to drink 🚶I wish I could learn from you.
Are the Ona bottles weights for pumping up? 🤣 WOMJay & Nobby. Good morning, I'm so glad to see you here. Ona here is also wonderful. ❤️ Tochigi. ジェイ&ノビィHi Sashiu 😃
Ona LOVE Sashiu, I'd love to hear your thoughts after you drink it 🤗It's like walking ❗️ to drink it 😅. ジェイ&ノビィHi Yasubeyesan 😃.
Tochigi sake 🍶 is very good 🍶 please try ☺️ a lot of things 🤗.
Jyu...10 kilos every day ⁉️ is quintessential 😳I can drink it every day 🆗. ジェイ&ノビィHi Takku0103 😃.
There are a lot of news about bears🐻 and it's scary 😱We might not walk without 🙆🏻 rules that we can drink if we walk 😅.
Ona and Aisan❤️ were a good combination 🤗 ジェイ&ノビィHello, Koki Shindate 😃!
I'm glad you commented because I thought I took a good picture ‼️ 🤗This is a good opportunity for you to try it, Ona-san! Please give it a try 👋 ジェイ&ノビィHi Mamio 😃
It's not easy to start walking 😅 but once I start walking, I'm off to a stellar start 😁.
The combination of Ona and Aisan is interesting! It would be even better if it were a bit cheaper 🥲. ジェイ&ノビィHi Chobin 😃
Ona is also delicious and really blessed with local sake 🍶🤗I'm looking forward to the end of the year buying 🎵BLACK Phoenix‼️ no doubt 😋. ジェイ&ノビィHi Gyve 😃.
I was wondering if it looks good for Kiri? I was also thinking 🤗 Yes, it is! It's an exercise to drink at any rate, so maybe I'm walking too fast thinking I can drink afterwards when I start walking 😆. ジェイ&ノビィHi Manta 😃
L🤍VE Sake 🍶 to start with 🤗It's Ona who looks great 😍Walking is good ‼️ but when it gets cold, the first step gets heavier 😅. ジェイ&ノビィHi 3KAN4ON 😃.
I'm a member of the fake photo club 😅but I got a good picture of Ona burning with the autumn leaves 🍁 in the background 🤗I took the picture first and then walked around 😄. ジェイ&ノビィHi Rafa papa 😃
Only on weekends when I'm at home 😅I'm trying my best to drink👍.
I only take pictures outside once in a while, but I'm glad you complimented my photos 🤗. ジェイ&ノビィHello, Kuri the woodsman 😃.
I was happy to take a picture as I imagined with autumn leaves 🍁 and Ona ❤️ 🤗I can't walk fast when I have Sake-sama on my back because I'm worried 😆. ジェイ&ノビィHi WOM 😃.
Ona ❤️ looks better in autumn leaves 🍁🤗.
Maybe I'll get into sake copying😄. ポンちゃんHi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
Lovely forest 🌲✨and you are walking at a very high pace for quite a distance 😳‼️ but very sympathetic! If only for the sake of drinking... right 😉 I hope to drink healthy so we can all enjoy it all the time 😊. ジェイ&ノビィHi Pon 😃.
I have a walking trail surrounded by forest 🌳 with no cars or bicycles coming in 🤗 but my steps might be bigger if I think I can drink afterwards 🤣.
I really want to enjoy drinking for a long time😊. つぶちゃんHi Jay & Nobby😄!
I've had this Ona at a sake fair, and even at Aizan, the aftertaste was refreshing and tasted impressive 🥰The photos are beautifully taken ✨and you've walked quite a distance! ジェイ&ノビィGood evening, Tsubu 😃.
Yes ‼️ it's delicious in Sukkiri Aizan 🤗
I only take it outside once in a while, so I'm happy to get a beautiful shot 😊I only do it when I can 😅I keep telling myself it's for drinking 😆. なのは(名芭）At Shimadaya Sake Shop in Miyamirai.
Mr. Shimada, the president of Shimadaya Sake Shop, gave me his business card at the Hakusen no Kai.
I showed him my business card, and he said, "One glass is free! so I used it right away.
I used it right away (-⁾⁾ᵖᵉᵏᵒ)
Since it was a good opportunity, I decided to try the sake recommended by President Shimada.
Stylish from the package♪♪
It looks like wine.
It has a sour taste and is very tasty.
My preference seems to be for a slightly sour sake with a sour taste. It's delicious. HiguAt Shimadaya again. Drinking too much.... HiguTasted at Shimadaya. Yes, the sake recommended by President Shimada. It is delicious. Thank you very much. 
ことりI saw this in Ponchan's Kyoto brewery walking review in early spring 👀 and have been curious about it ever since.
Ruri Kamizo.
I fell in love at first sight with the beauty of the lapis lazuli-colored bottle, which reminds me of a slice of nature...a fantastic deep sea 😍.
The web introduction says that this is the oldest brewery that continues to make sake in the city of Kyoto. The introduction on the web is full of words that hit the nail on the head, such as "matured in ice temperature", "only fresh sake can convey the vibrancy of the active yeast to your tongue", "keep in the refrigerator to enjoy the changes in flavor"...etc. 😍
And then it happened 🤩.
I was able to get it at a sake store in my neighborhood, even though I live far away from Kyoto. ❗️
It's a fruity wine with a hint of pear and lychee? Fruity aroma reminiscent of pear or lychee, with a hint of koji aroma. Silky gasiness is pleasant on the tongue. It has a mild mouthfeel and a rich flavor with a hint of acidity while the umami of the rice spreads out.
It is sweet and thick, like eating a jelly filled with flavor...(*´∇｀｀*)
It is delicious as it unravels in your mouth.
Rice used: Shuku, produced in Kyoto
Rice polishing ratio: 65
Alcohol content: 15
Yeast: Matsui Original ポンちゃんHello, Kotori-san!
I see you drank Jingura! I'm nodding my head and nodding my head to the review sweet and thick - eating jelly 😆 It's a unique sweet taste 🎶 I want to drink it again ❣️ ことりHi Pon, 😊🍶I've been opening the bottles in order of month of production and finally got to drink them! The sweet dark flavor and glossy smooth mouthfeel is 👍🏻 AR compatible labels depending on the time of year! It was like I could see the message from the brewery and not the butler 😆san nen lol ひるぺこGood evening, Kotori. I am impressed by your review that shows Luli's deliciousness in your hand 😆 It's amazing how you compare shading to jelly ‼️ makes me want to drink Jinzang again 😊. ことりI thought of "full of flavor and long-lasting deliciousness..." and I thought of it as a jelly that melts in your mouth at body temperature 🤤I'm sure the reviewers will scold me for saying it's liquid 🤣. なのは(名芭）Good evening, Kotori-san! I haven't had this sake yet, but I was curious about it because I like the characters on the label by Shisyu! After reading your review, I had to try it! I have not had this sake yet, but I was curious about it because I like the lettering on the label! ことりGood evening, Nanoha-san. ☺️ Shimadaya Sake Shop in Miyamirai is small but has a good selection. 👍🏻 Nice letters on fashionable bottles... Calligrapher Shisyu? I googled him and saw the interview 😅He is also active abroad and his sculptures are wonderful 🤗. スナインA limited edition of Houou Mita. It is made from Yamadaho, the mother of Yamadanishiki. It has a fruity taste typical of Hououmida and is very easy to drink. スナインSentori Organic Naturals on the last night of my trip to Utsunomiya. It is a kijoshu. It is easy to drink like a ginjo sake despite its 90% rice polishing ratio. The taste of rice can be felt as you drink it down. I like the taste.
