I think Pon-chan is definitely the one who contributed to the revitalization of Sake no Wa 🥺.
I think Pon-chan is definitely the one who contributed to the revitalization of sakegawa 梁.
Thank you Pon-chan for always commenting on my silly posts 🙏.
This sake is limited to 300 bottles available only at Higashitsuru, a liquor store with two branches in Nishinomiya.
It is said to have a gorgeous flavor not found in previous Shirataka.
It is indeed a sweet and modern sake. The second half of the bottle is a little more sake-like. There is no ginjo aroma. A little citrusy.
Nemuchi seemed to be interested in this sake, but I don't think she would like it 🤔.
It's not enough for a raw sake...
It's halfway between sweetness and umami 🙄.

Sweetness is felt, but later on one can detect alcohol aroma and bitterness.
It's not crazy good, but it's not bad either.
I bought a bottle to commemorate the Tigers ARE 🐯.
I wanted to keep the bottle so I decided it was time to drink it 🫙.
This day I hooked up a one-cup at lunch and went to the Ed Sheeran concert at night 🎸.
His use of the loop pedal was so divine, I was in awe👍.

Hi Yoohee 😃
Speaking of Ed Sheeran, a few years ago, Shirayuki released Ed Sheeran collaboration sake 😁.
It was sold out at Aeon for a long time because it was too expensive 🤔.

ゆーへー
bouken Hello...
I didn't know you were doing that too...,
Copyright fees seem to be more expensive than liquor💦.

Sake from the breweries of Chojamori and Koshino-Kanchubai.
I had been interested in this sake for a long time, but I bought it because it was on special price and there was a draft.
According to the Internet, the rice is Koshitanrei.
I've seen the hi-ire version but only at Ito-Yokado 🤔.
I heard it was developed in collaboration with Takaoka National College of Technology, and the 888th sake out of 1200 test brews was so good that they decided to commercialize it.
Sourness like wine. It has sweetness but it's not like sake. As the description says, I would like to match it with meat and cheese.

The only existing wooden brewery in Nada Gogo. It is a rare sake with no added sugar except for nigori.
Nemuchi-san and Yoohee-san were drinking it, and I was curious about it, so I bought it.
It has a surprisingly crisp sweetness, strong alcohol taste, and a classic flavor.
It has a strong punch that makes you want to drink it on the rocks or with soda.
It goes great with soda!

Good evening, bouken🌛I was a little put off by the added sugar, but I knew you'd drink it? I was not a fan of it because of the added sugar, but I still drank it 😁It was delicious, but I can't drink 900ml of it because it is classical and has 20% alcohol by volume 🤣.

This sake is sold at Nishinomiya Shrine only during Tokaebisu, but I bought a limited supply at a nearby liquor store.
It is a smooth and easy to drink type of sake. It is too refreshing and not enough for me, so I think it would be better with soda.
It is good with soda 😋.

It has a slight sweetness and flows like water with a touch of alcohol.
Dry? I didn't taste much, though it wasn't as tangy as it could have been.
The day after bouken-san's information, I dropped by and found the last bottle left, so I hurried to buy it.
It was just as dry as Nemuchi's and bouken's previous reviews, and it was different from what I expected. ❗️
I wonder if all the normal line tastes like this?
720 mL ¥ 1,427

Good evening, Yoohee-san 🌛I guess Kawanakajima is different from what I expected for Genmai lovers 😅I heard there is another Kawanakajima Toku Jun Dry Mouth, but I'm not sure if I should buy it 💦I read an old review that said Kawanakajima nigori is less sweet and more rice-like....
Japanese>English
ゆーへー
Good morning, Nemuchi-san.
I see that there is a dry special jun too, if it is drier than this, it will have a strong bitter and alu taste.
I see that nigorigo is also less sweet 💧.

This sake was purchased by Rafa and Nemuchi when they visited liquor stores earlier this year.
I think it was a spot shipment, but I was surprised to see it in stock at a liquor store that was not a special distributor. There was also a bottle of Suzukagawa, but both were marked as special arrivals.
It has an elegant sugary sweetness, but it is a completely different type of sake from Genmai. I think it would be good at room temperature or lukewarm.
It also has a cool or refreshing feeling.
I think it matches what Nemuchi said about it being clear.
Japanese>English

Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi 🌠.
If you drink it with the image of "Gensho Mai", you will be disappointed 😅.
It's more like a classic.... I opened it, took a sip, took it out of the fridge and left it at room temperature 🤣.
Japanese>English
bouken
Good evening, Mr. Manachie 😃.
Genshu Mai is a more modern sake, while Kawanakajima is more classic 😅I had the impression that Kawanakajima is not suited for hot sake or long aging. I had the impression that Kawanakajima is more classic 😅 but it's not suitable to be heated or aged for a long time, so it's difficult to say 🙄.

I'm not a fan of Fukuju, but sometimes I buy it. Hyogo Ai ♥
I was attracted by the cloth label and the limited edition of 120 bottles. It is quite light, slightly fruity and dry. I think I prefer Hyogo Nishiki, which I drank in the past, because it is sweeter.
I can taste the gorgeous sweetness when it is closer to room temperature than when it is freshly out of the refrigerator.
I can't find anything about this sake on Google except on the SNS of the liquor store where I bought it 🤔.
Japanese>English
Rafa papa
Good evening, bouken.
I went to the brewery to buy Fukuju but I haven't had it since 😅I'm not afraid of it...but I love your love for Hyogo 👍Is there a brewery in Hyogo where you haven't had it?
Japanese>English

Good evening, Rafa.
I avoid Fukuju because I often don't like it, but if I see something I've never seen before, I'll go for it 😅.
I think there are about 10 breweries in Hyogo that I haven't drunk if they haven't gone out of business 🤔.

There are so many varieties of Azuma Tsuru that you might miss a rare sake if you don't look carefully 👀.

They have Fukuju nama sake at Yamaya, but the one they usually sell has the same label as the hi-ire one and casually says nama sake, so it might be hard to notice it 😁.

Sake sold in Nishinomiya City during the Ebessan Festival.
When I bought it 4 years ago, it was Shirataka. I want to try Ougi Masamune and Kanetaka from next year onward!
It has a strong aroma of rice or bran. Even when you drink it, it has a strong rice flavor. It is dry but not too dry. Is it a food sake type?
Kunisan Shuzo does not brew their own sake, so I guess they buy it from another company, but it has "O" written after the company name, so I guess it is Ozeki. And the location is close.

I went to buy it after seeing the liquor store's insta-post because Tateyama's active nigori sounded rare.
As I mentioned before, Higashitsuru is located near Hakushika Classics. It is a discount store that sells groceries, medicines, and other non-alcoholic beverages. It seems that they used to be a sake brewery. In fact, the company name "Azumatsuru Shuzo" is written on the website. It has the same name as a sake brewery in Saga.
This time they had more Eiko-Fuji than usual.
I thought it would be more active, but it was very mild.
Dry, sweet and spicy. It has a strong rice flavor and koji taste. At a little over 1000 yen including tax, this sake is cheap and easy on the wallet.
It tastes sweeter on the third day than freshly opened.
Japanese>English

Good evening, bouken!
I see that you opened the bottle immediately👍✨Do you think it is a bit cloudy? Is it very cloudy?

It doesn't say, but the product name is Kokoromi. 295 bottles of this sake are limited, and from the name, I wonder if it is a test brew type sake.
The concept of the Kokoromi saké has been around since last year, and it is said to be "unpolished luxury. This year's theme is "Shitakoya. It is a low-polished, low-alcohol sake. It is a rather gorgeous sake with a gentle taste that is not typical of Shirataka.
The rice is Yamada-Nishiki from a special A district, which is luxurious for only 1,300 yen.
It is probably only available in the Nishinomiya area, but if you see it, give it a try.
Japanese>English
bouken
Surprisingly, this is the first time I've had a Kozaemon draft. I've always wanted to try it, but the timing hasn't been right and I've only had the hiya-oshi and hiyayakoshi versions.
It's a CWS sake, but I didn't see it in the store, but it seems there were only 200 bottles or so.
This is the first time I've had a rice called Asahi no Yume. Fruity, a little sweet and refreshing. I don't think it has much of a freshness to it. It is a sake that is a fusion of modern and classic.
Personally, I thought it was too subtle. For a junmai daiginjo, it tastes messy or...
On a side note, there is now a Yamanaka Sake store at Osaka Station, which I thought was more convenient and easier to get to than the main store in Daikokucho 😁.

Dear BOUKEN, Thank you for your hard work. It was nice to meet you, even if it was only for a short time remotely.

Japanese>English

Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Greissinger19!
I could feel the enthusiasm of the Kyushu Off-line Meeting in a short time 😁I saw it in a store and wondered if there was such a thing in CWS. I saw it in a store and looked it up, and it seems that's what it was about.
Japanese>English
bouken
CWS.
Gas is quite strong. It has a fine sweetness with a shriveled taste. It is sweet but not fruity, and the flavor of the rice can be fully appreciated. The acidity is also strong.
The impression is a little different from the fruity Splash we had before.
Purchased at Higashitsuru Market Square on the beach in Nishinomiya. Right next to Shirataka and Shirashika Classics.
It has the feel of a discount liquor store, but has a lot of core local sake. According to online information, it used to be a sake brewery. You can find sake from Nishinomiya's very small breweries such as Baomusume, Shimabijin, Kiichi, Kokusan Ichi, and others.
They carry Haginotsuru, which is not widely available in the surrounding area. Shirataka sometimes carries rare sake from the neighborhood. Eiko-Fuji is sometimes stocked.

This is a fruit series planned by Mr. Yamada, a sake merchant in Hiroshima. It comes out from various sake breweries.
I've drunk Raifuku's Momo before.
In addition to the kudamono series, there are many other products like CWS.
Some liquor stores other than Sakaisho Yamada also sell it.
It smells and tastes like banana. The aftertaste is like ramune. It's called soda, so I thought it would have a gassy taste, but it doesn't. I didn't understand the ramune taste.

In terms of rice polishing rate, it's Junmaishu standard.
