First time I drank Nagano sake...
Fruity and delicious
Japanese>English
＠水橋
Kame no Kai Semishigure Junmai Ginjo Nama 720ml
Rice polishing ratio 59
Alcohol content 14%.
Since it has suddenly become hot and humid, we decided to serve a summer sake. It is refreshing and delicious.
The label of the local ver is different from that of Haru-ura. It makes me want to go on an expedition to Shinshu on Saturday, but the fridge seems to be full, so let's give up: 🤦♂️

Hi @Mizuhashi!
The local ver has a different label 😲.
It's really getting hot suddenly so I want to go out for summer sake 🎵.
I'm too excited to know when I'm going to drink it, Semishigure!

Hello @Mizuhashi.
Turtle sea is delicious, isn't it? I had it for the first time the other day.
I envy you because there are not many places where I can drink it near me.

Hi ma-ki-😃
You can see the different labels at the online store of the brewery 😄
By the way, if you visit the liquor stores in Ueda, I might be able to bring you two kinds of sake: ✌️
I'm looking forward to the opening of Semishigure 😊.

Hi Kenken 😃
They are consistently delicious 😋.
We're also close to you, we're a liquor store in Kanazawa 😆.
This time we brought you from Chikuma in GW 😄 considering the transportation cost, it would be cheaper to have a courier service 😅.

First time in a year, the cicadas of the turtle sea.
It's summer sake!
It's only May, but the summer days are starting to last.
I'm going to open it now that the summer days are starting to last.
The light acidity is pleasant,
I feel it is a summer sake.
And it is low in alcohol.
I can't stop guzzling it.
It was delicious last year, too,
I bought a bottle without hesitation
I bought a bottle last year, but it was gone in no time. I'm sure I'll be back soon 🙏.
Purchase price ¥3520（1.8L)

Last year's winner in my personal summer sake category, Semi Shigure, has already made its appearance. I was browsing around at a liquor store in Koume-machi, Nagano, and...what do you think? I bought it, thinking that it must be the season for summer sake.
It's less citrusy and acidic than last year, but it's still good...definitely a regular summer sake. I promised myself that I would drink it again this year.

Good morning madamarr 😃.
Cicadasigure ‼️ definitely a champ🏆 for a good summer drink 🤗I think we're going to have another one too 😊.

Last year, my personal top three summer sakes were Turtle Sea Semishigure, Omine Natsu no Otozure, and Akabu SEA. So far, Semishigure is leading by about 5 steps.

Nakasendo Walk (2)
On the second day, we walked about 20 km from Kasatori Pass to Iwamuradajuku in Saku.
We enjoyed the beautiful weather while viewing sake breweries, rows of pine trees, and the Asama mountain range.
The sake brewery in the photo is Takeju Honke Sake Brewery.
Unfortunately, it was a closed day, so we were only able to see the tools on display.
I bought this 1-goupe bottle at the supermarket.
This cute turtle sea is ❣️
100% Hitogochiki
Polishing ratio 59
Alcohol 15%.
This is also classic and refreshing.
The aftertaste is quite spicy.
When the temperature rises, it tastes delicious.
It was mellow and dry as the label says.
Next to it is Karuizawa Kogen Beer!
Compared to Neko, it had a more robust taste and was delicious.

Good evening, Pon-chan!
Nakasendo walk is good. ⤴️
It's great that you are walking so well 😲.
And I'm surprised that you can buy Kame no Kai at the supermarket 🎵.
I'm glad you can try a small bottle of the dry Kame no Kai.

It's just like Nagano Prefecture that small bottles of Kame-no-Kai-san are sold in supermarkets😇.
And Nagano Prefecture seems to have quite a few good local beers 😇.

Hey Pon, I'm with you 😃.
20km is a challenging walk 💦we have a hard time just walking for an hour on weekends😅but I'd like to try it! I was in the Sakamoto - Annaka area for about 4 years for work, so I might miss it 🥹.

Hi N.E. 🐦
I also walk for sustainable drinking (lol), but I always come back home with more weight than usual because I eat more than usual at the inn 🤣.
You can enjoy walking along the Nakasendo, where there are still some townscapes and sake breweries!

Thank you Jay & Nobby for your help here 😊.

Finally caught the cicada 🎉🥰.
I'll drink it soon now: ‼️
They all look so good and I've always wanted to drink them someday ❤️ glad 😆
Today's menu is crab cream croquettes and grilled salmon. Vinegared wakame seaweed and marinated snap peas and octopus as garnish.
I also added yuzupon to the crab cream seeds💓.
Cicadas are sloppy! Amazakai 💕Has little spiciness and bitterness, light with a hint of astringency at the end.
Throwing yuzupon into crab cream croquettes was the right choice 👏😆 It also went well with sweet salmon💓.
I'm happy because I worked hard from noon to make crab cream croquettes 🥹😋🥹😋 and cicadas are very delicious and happy too 😋 ❤️
Impressions of the alcohol by itself are in charge of shinsaku3💕.

Overall 8 (out of 10)
Mr. Pekho was curious about this sake 😃.
This is my first time to try this sake!
According to the description
"Sweet and sour with a light taste.
It can be enjoyed casually while retaining the acidic structure of the flavor" 🧐.
It is delicious 😋.
Light sweet and sour taste as described👍
Seems like it would suit a scene where you keep sipping it on a summer evening with a summer meal😃.
We served it chilled😃.

Good evening, shinsaku3!
Peckho-san's long-awaited Cicada Shigure, Peckho-san praised it highly, but I wonder if it is more acidic than sweet in shinsaku3-san's opinion. Somehow there seems to be another difference between the two of you in your views ⁉️🤣
