Osake no Kai] Toshimaya Sake Brewery "Yamori" x Osake and Kasumigaseki
October 14, 2023
From the Toshimaya Sake Brewery in Higashimurayama City, Tokyo,
Toji Koji Tanaka will be invited,
Osake no Kai was held!
The staff of Osaketo visited the brewery in late January.
After all, seeing the sake making process in person,
The feelings for that drink become stronger.
We hope to deliver that desire to our customers even more strongly,
This year's Osake no Kai was held.
Three types of "Yamori", which are available only at special dealerships, and
Kinshu, a traditional local sake of Tokyo.
We hope you can listen to Mr. Tanaka's story more familiarly,
Mr. Tanaka also conducted the event in a dining style.
This is the time of year when they are usually fire-returned,
The "Yamori Junmai Nakadori Nama" (Junmai Junmai Nakadori Nama), which was kept fresh for this meeting, is
It had a fresh yet calm taste.
The Golden Wedding "Edo Sake Prince" is,
An old yeast, Seishu Edo yeast, is used.
This yeast produces a unique sour taste,
And the natural lactic acid bacteria have wandered in quite a bit during the brewing process.
For an exquisite sour taste.
The "first taste" attracts the attention of customers.
(Incidentally, this sake is made from Hachioji sake rice.
(Hence the name "Edo Sake Prince"!)
Aged for about a year, this time it's a special one,
Activated nigori sake, not for sale.
Cold sake, of course,
It really comes into its own with hot sake.
Served at two temperatures: 55°C and 45°C.
We enjoyed the change in flavor at three different temperatures.
Finally, sweet kijo sake is paired with sweets.
It goes well with dried fruit cream cheese.
It was delicious poured directly over vanilla ice cream.
The Toshimaya Brewery is,
Walking distance from Higashimurayama station.
It takes about one hour from Shinjuku station.
What a surprise, even during the sake-making season,
They offer tours of the brewery every Saturday.
If you are lucky, you might even be able to drink some of the freshly squeezed sake on the spot?
We encourage everyone to go out and tour the warehouses!
In Japanese food day osaketo,
Osake meetings are held on an irregular basis to convey the producer's thoughts.
