The 9th traveling SAKE (7) The Kurosawa Sake Brewery was recently featured in Laughing at Koratte. The name "Kurosawa" conjures up an image of a sake brewer. The sake we drank was All sake is made from the same sake brewing process. Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-genshu It has an acidity that is typical for a sake made from the "nama yeast" principle. It was quite spicy. Junmai Ginjo Shikatsu (2019) Junmai Hozumi Not my favorite type. I think this was the one that had the same cardboard-like boxy flavor that I had when I drank Shikishima. Junmai Ginjo ㋣ Cornerstone Unfiltered Nama Sake Junmai Shinryoku Nama-shu It's low-alcohol, but I wonder if it's watered down. Easy to drink and powerful at the same time. Junmai Daiginjo㋣SAKU1 Tokoro-san said this is what he was drinking. Junmai Daiginjo Kinmon Nishiki This is the only one that I felt gorgeous. Overall, it was spicier than the Kurosawa we drank at home and out. The common feeling among all the products was the acidity that is typical of the sake brewing process.

Good evening, bouken 😃. I'm afraid I'm not talking about Kurosawa, but regarding the characteristic aroma of Shikishima, I once talked with Mr. Kawada of chuin about 🤔 that the smell of wood might have been transferred during koji making since a new koji room was built.

Hi Aladdin 😃 I see 😳that's the reason 🤔. When I drank Shikishima at another place sake, Uma-san said it was boxy! I can't forget what he said 🤣.

The 9th traveling SAKE⑥ Tachibanakura Shuzo, I have seen it several times in department stores, but this is the first time I have had it! I drank Amazake I only tasted it because it was sold out. The taste and sweetness were strong and there were many grains of rice. It was like eating while drinking. Mushinzo Hitogokochi Unfiltered Nama Sake Gorgeous, but quite spicy. Mushinzo Junmai Ginjo ORO Mushinzo Junmai Ginjo ORO is made with flower yeast. I thought it was the most refreshing and easy-drinking type of sake I had. Junmai Daiginjo Tachibana A beautiful taste that does not remind one of its 3-year aging. Relatively sweet for a sake from this brewery. Foamy junmai-shu Tamayura Purchased because it was 300 ml. Honjozo Barrel Sake Among the many cask sake, the cask aroma was subdued and the sake flavor was stronger. Overall, I got the impression that it was a dry sake brewery. I've recommended a lot of Nagano sake 😅. I've never seen Yokobue... 🙄.

The 9th Traveling SAKE (5) There are only a few special sake stores, and only Tamago has ever had Imanishiki, so I tried a variety of sake 😋. We drank Junmai Ginjo Kinmon-Nishiki Nama-nara Sake It is sweet and delicious, but more reserved than Miyamanishiki. Nakagawa Village Tamako Special Junmai Namaishu Slightly spicy, similar to the impression I had in the past. Junmai Ginjo Miyamanishiki The sweetest and most delicious of all the sake we tasted. Junmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki Junmai Ginjo Yamae Nishiki Junmai Daiginjo He said this was his top pick. Nenrin Junmai Daiginjo Fruity and even better than the previous junmai daiginjo. HAKUMEI Junmai Sake Low alcohol. It was sweet and sour. Umeshu (plum wine) Naturally sweet and tasty, but could be a little richer. The only place I know of that carries it is Hinodeya Sake Shop in Incheon, but they carry both Kinmame and Mizuo 🤔. I think the toji of Raku no Se used to be at Imanishiki, right? They brew totally different sake!

The 9th Traveling SAKE④. This one also has a good impression on me personally, before dawn. I have never had a fire-brewed sake before, so I will take this opportunity 😁. I drank Special Honjozo Tatsunogin I thought Tatsunogin was the name of rice, but apparently it's because the brewery is located in Tatsuno-cho😅Fruity and refreshing, it's hard to believe it's a honjozo. It's a shocking taste 😳. Junmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki This one is also quite gorgeous and sweet. Junmai Kinumoka It is said to be dry, but I didn't feel it was that dry. I guess it's a food sake type. Junmai Ginjo Nama Ippon Shizukudori Nama Sake Slightly refreshing, sweet and fruity. It has the same 🍍feel as when I drank it in the past. Junmai Ginjo Nama Ippon I think they were all delicious before dawn. Daiginjo 2023 Trophy-winning sake Not at a price you can afford, but very gorgeous and delicious! Junmai Daiginjo Yamada Nishiki Another gorgeous sake. A good sake to drink on New Year's Day. Daiginjo Seikan Brewing It was said to be watered down to 50% polished. It's usually delicious, but the order in which you drink it... 😅 The founder of Yodobashi was a brewer at Yodobashi and they sell all kinds of sake because of that connection 😳They also sell a lot of Nagano sake because they are from Nagano. The brewer was really into the Tenzan t-shirt Nemuchi-san was wearing 😁So there is that kind of connection too 😆.

The 9th Traveling SAKE (3) I bought a bottle of nama-shu at a local liquor store and was shocked at the taste, Nanashira, and since I have never had fire-aged sake except hiyaoroshi, I was curious about the standard sake and so on. I drank Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake I drank this at a local liquor store and it was so delicious that I unusually bought it on repeat. It was as good as ever. Many people who tasted it bought it and went home. Nemuchi-san was also happy with it 😁. Kiso Yoshinaka Junmai Ginjo Light This sake is brewed under a certain theme every year. This year it seems to be low-alcohol. It is a gentle and easy-drinking sake. Junmai Ginjo Quite fruity and sweet. I like it a lot. Kiso Miyamanishiki Junmai Mild but floral type Junmai A type of sake that you never get tired of drinking. I thought it was great that this was a standard sake. Daiginjo Ginka I think they said it was good. Almost all of this class are good! Overall, I have a good impression of its sweet taste. It would be good if they handled more of it. The member stores of Meimon Sake Kai only handle it on a spot basis, and there is no sales channel in Kansai 😅.

The 9th Traveling SAKE (2) Wagyo Shuzo, which changed its name from Shokame Shuzo due to various reasons, and the brother of the master brewer visited us. The brewer's brother came to the brewery. We drank Unfiltered raw sake Normal sake. It had a grape-like taste. Gattun type. I think this one is my favorite among all the ones I drank. Junmai Unfiltered Nama-genshu This is also a heavy type, but it didn't leave much impression... Yoshimura Junmai Daiginjo I thought it was modern among the sake breweries here. I thought so. I asked about the origin of Yoshimura and was told it was the name of the president of a group company😅. Daiginjo It's an expensive sake, but I felt a little uncomfortable with the taste. Junmai Ginjo It's gorgeous and sweeter than the other ones I've had, but 🤔. The flavor was a little strange too. Junmai sake I think it was the easiest to drink. It has nothing to do with this brewery, but when I drank Alps Masamune, I realized once again that I prefer daiginjo with alcohol rather than jun-dai.

The 9th Traveling SAKE (1) This year, we were in Nagano Prefecture and pushed for Kuroemon XVI. Last year it was Sawahime 😊. Like last year, I went around with Nemuchi 😁. We started with our first Alps Masamune. We drank Junmai Ginjyo Nama-nihonjyu Miyamanishiki It's good but the sweetness is a bit too much. Junmai Namae Nishiki It is sweet and delicious, and I like it very much. Nemuchi had the same impression. We both bought it 😁. Junmai sake stored in a windhole A little spicy, but easy to drink with a smooth taste. It is a little spicy but easy to drink with a mellow feeling. Junmai Junmai Namaeshiki This is a fire-aged version of the nama sake. It is calmer and easier to drink than the raw version. Muscat flavor. Junmai Ginjyo Yamae-Nishiki Go-Cho Polishing ratio of 50%. Slightly sweeter and richer in taste. Kame-no-ye Daiginjo Yamadanishiki A delicious sake with a gorgeous sweet flavor. I think I said to the brewer, "With this taste and these specs, it should be good for about 5,000 yen. I think I told the brewer that it should be about 5,000 yen for this taste and specs. I think I told the brewer that it was watered down. Kame-no-ye Daiginjo-Doubottori Shizuku Yamadanishiki produced in Matsumoto. It is said that this one is a once-heated sake. It has a thicker flavor than the previous daiginjo and is very tasty. I asked about the distributor, and it seems that Takimoto Sake Shop in Ikeda City carries it. I would like to visit there once as they also seem to carry a Nagano sake called Shigaizumi.

Transparent with a slight yellowish tinge. The complex aroma is a combination of a full rice aroma, a fragrance reminiscent of hatako (sticky rice flour), an aroma reminiscent of black tea, and a faint floral aroma. The aroma is strong. It has a sweet and sour mouthfeel. The aroma is sweet and sour on the palate, with hints of black tea. The mouthfeel is rich with a strong astringent taste. The bitterness derived from alcohol also appears. The aftertaste is medium. It is a mellow sake.

Purchased at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival. It has a nice tropical fruit-like sweetness and flavor with a tangy, slightly effervescent taste. Finishes with bitterness. I've rarely had Harada, but I'd like to try more. Even after a few days, it still has a gaseous taste, but the bitterness is more pronounced than when it is freshly opened.

On this day, September 14, 🐯 had a thing for the first time in 18 years, so I opened a slightly better one. Purchased at the Hankyu Sake Brewer's Festival. It was the first brewery in Japan to produce a draft sake. The first brewery to produce sparkling sake in Japan. The originator of hiyaoroshi. The oldest existing brewery. I was a little nervous at the tasting because of all the great things about this brewery. The overall price was high, so I hesitated between a sparkling wine and Yamamotozakura. It made a good impression on me at the tasting. It has a complex aroma of lychee, nuts, and lemon. There are still many other aromas and it's really complex. Fruity, clean and refreshing. The aftertaste is quite dry. The alcohol is also strong. The nuttiness lingers in the aftertaste for a long time. It is a one-of-a-kind sake that I can't think of any other sake that tastes like it. It tastes better after 4-5 days than freshly opened. The aroma is also becoming more apple-like. It also has a chocolate-like nuance. Well, my vocabulary can't accurately describe the taste of this sake 💦.

Purchased at the Hankyu Brewer's Festival. It has apple-like freshness with nutty and smoky nuances. Delicious, but spicier than when I tasted it. It is said that 4-5 year old lots have a sake degree of +8, but I don't think it is that spicy. When I drink it again, it seems to have a similar atmosphere to the tasting. It also has a muscat-like taste. The impression is quite different depending on the order of drinking. If you drink it after drinking many things, it is spicy, and if you drink it first, it feels fruity and sweet. I think there's a little bit of cemedine in there too.

Purchased at the Hankyu Kuramoto Festival. I was afraid to open it because it was a crown type and foamy, but there was no problem. It was sour and had a strong rice taste. It has a bitter taste like a greefleur at the end. It comes in a beer bottle, so you can easily drink it like beer on a hot day.

Hankyu Brewery Festival㉙ Koikawa is known for its heated sake. As one would expect, they let us drink it warmed up, even though it was just a tasting 😊. The sake we tasted was Junmai Ginjo Kamejikohi Junmai Daiginjo Beppin Snow Goddess Junmai Daiginjo Gokozen I think it was... I've had Kamejiyohi a few times in the past when out for drinks, but this is definitely more of a warmed sake than a cold sake. The tasting was lukewarm, but the taste was warm and gentle. I think that's the end of the brewery festival. I may not remember or may not have taken any pictures. After this, I forced Nemuchi to take me to the sake department in the basement, and we went to the basement of Hanshin as well, but we didn't find anything special, so we left. -Postscript I always thought I was drinking something after Koikawa, but according to Nemuchi's post, I think I was drinking Karahashi and Eikawa😅. I don't have any other pictures, but it looks like they are drinking Nada Kiku too 🙄. So I guess there are 32 breweries in total? I have a faint memory of drinking it but I don't have a picture so I won't post it 🤣.
