Touring the Oldest Sake Brewery in Tokyo (Plus Japanese Sake Tasting)

www.byfood.com/experiences/to...
Operating since 1596, Toshimaya Shuzo Sake Brewery in Higashimurayama City is one of the oldest sake breweries in Tokyo. Come along with byFood host Shizuka Anderson to discover this historic sake brewery, learn how the Japanese rice wine is made, and find out what lies in Toshimaya Shuzo’s rickety old attic. At the end, Shizuka enjoys a sake tasting of 5 different types of Japanese sake (referred to as “nihonshu” in Japanese), including several types of junmai sake, which is made from only rice, koji, and water.

A refreshing, unfiltered, Japanese sake with a natural sweetness, Juemon Junmai Origarami sake is easy-to-drink. Origarami sake is a type of Japanese sake that is not filtered, so the sake is slightly cloudy in appearance with visible rice particles.

    In Germany we use the leftovers from beermaking for making Porkroast. First we feed the leftovers to the Pigs, then we make a Porkroast if they big enough ^^

    It is actually not easy to do wine testing or any other alcoholic drink testing. I think the host did a good job 🙂. The comment from the owner about drinking at the end was a bit funny. Sake - connecting people :-).

    I am sorry but Koji is NOT a bacteria but a type of fungus called mold so it's actually a moldy rice. The koji tranforms the rice with a complexity of tastes that make sake tasty!
