Suwa 5 Breweries Tour (4)
The Suwa 5 Breweries Tour set is available at the tourist information center in Kamisuwa Station for 3,000 yen. 22 tastings in total are available at the 5 breweries. The set comes with a drawstring, glass, and sticker.
The third photo shows the stickers given to you by the breweries on the sticker paper.
The fourth brewery, Yokobue.
There are 5 kinds of tasting. The staff who were accustomed to serving us were very helpful. Nigori sake was recommended by ❗️ and was a compulsory tasting 😆.
My impression of the sake was Yokobue Shirakaba Nishiki.
This is my first time to taste Shirakaba Nishiki sake rice. Excited to see what it tastes like ☺️
The aroma is subdued. On the palate, it has a sweetness similar to green apple🍏 with a slight acidity. There is a lingering sweetness.
Overall, the impression is modest and mature. Seems to go well with a variety of foods...but there was no food at the tasting so I couldn't try it 😭

Light and dry. Kire (sharpness). Smell of alcohol. It is easy to drink.
For some reason, I felt cocoa at the moment I drank it. Is it because of the combination of food?

The line for the event was long and there were some issues with the waiting time. Looking forward to next time.
