Last weekend was a whirlwind at work, so I'm late in posting and replying to comments💦.
My apologies 🙇.
Have a good day.
Sake-no-wa Kansai Off-line meeting A Year-End Party 10
Next is the sake brought by Masha-san, which is linked to the Tochigi Off-line Meeting held on the same day 🍶.
SENKYO Classic SENKYO Kame-no-o
The sake had a clean rice aroma, a soft mouthfeel, and a mild aftertaste from the acidity and sharpness typical of SENKOKU.
The love for Tochigi was also demonstrated at the Kansai Off-line Meeting.
It's been a long time since I drank "Sentori" 😁.
Thank you, Masha 🙇.
Thank you for the food ✨
Good evening, Jive 😃.
Thanks for your work 😌It's a miracle that the event was held on the same day 🥹but I feel a deep connection when I see Tochigi sake 🍶 at the event 🤗oh, but I don't drink Osaka sake here 😅! But we don't drink Osaka sake here 😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I'll write about what happened in a future post, but it was a tough time 💦.
I hope to attend [Tochigi-kai] myself someday 😁.
Osaka sake is rare so I'll ship it with Fukui sake before next time 🤣.

Sake rice Domaine Sakura, Kame-no-o, Omachi, Yamadanishiki
Polishing ratio unknown
The mouthfeel is sweet and fruity. The aftertaste is clean but a little astringent. Firm and refreshing? It's a strange feeling. Delicious.
I haven't done sparklers in years. I haven't done actual sparklers for years, but I think it's been six or seven years since I did sparklers with sake. I think I drank it at a time when SENKOUGOU had been stripped down and I didn't like its taste very much. I used to like it until a year before that.
The aroma is infused with an acidity that you can imagine the direction of the flavor from the aroma. I would like to know the name of this type of acidity today.
My first impression is "sourness"! And from there, it is refreshing like a spud. There is no imbalance caused by a weak umami, which is common in low-alcohol sakes with this kind of acidity! As the manager said, the umami taste swells up afterwards. No, it was more like "gushing out" than "expanding," and there was a surprising feeling of something that should not have been there!
This juwajuwa feeling is just like a sparkler, and it pops so beautifully...
Just as you can't enjoy the real pleasure of potpourri if you handle it roughly, you can't appreciate its goodness if you drink it gulping it down, or it is an even better sake if you taste its proper development in your mouth.
It is already winter, but I drank it on a day when the lingering summer heat was still intense. I will buy it again next year.

Fat bottle opened 11/5, posted 11/18
Almost the same specs as last year 😁.
The aroma after opening the bottle is the same as last year, with a sweet aroma like white wine or Koshu wine.
It doesn't have the thin taste like last year.
When you put it in your mouth, it is still a white wine 🍷←Koreha, it is a red wine!
It is a white wine if it is chilled while tasting the firm acidity! But this year, it becomes more and more like sake as it gets closer to room temperature... 😅Basically, the white wine taste remains the same... 😅
Sentori changes the specs of their seasonal sake every year, so you can enjoy it 👍.
Delicious!
3rd WBSC Premier 12
vs Cuba🇨🇺
It was a fierce battle. ⚾️ I watched the game until the end because I didn't know which way the game was going to go until the very end. ⚾️ I think the pitchers did a good job of pitching in the rainy and bad conditions!
That last series of strikeouts was numbing👍.
Good morning, Kobo-san 🐥.
I couldn't see it from the middle yesterday, but you won... 4 wins in a row! That's strong 😳
I wish we could do that kind of brand these days 😊.
Good evening, kozou-san 😃.
I think that akatombo is a safe bottle to have in the fridge 🤗and yesterday Cuba 🇨🇺 tied the game when I took my eyes off the ball for a minute 😓I was in a hurry but they won well👍That's how you become a strong team!
Pon.
Good morning...
It was quite a good game ⚾️
I think I can tell if the taste of Sentori has changed or not every year 😅I think it depends on my health condition... 🤣. I think it depends on my health condition 😅... 🤣.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good morning 🥰.
I am happy to drink Akatombo almost every year 🥰I think Akatombo has more wine taste than other seasonal sake 😊Good game day after day ⚾️
Modern Sentori
Juice-like! I like it! Order God!
Not as heavy on sweetness as I expected!
A glimmer of sourness too!
I think it's a step ahead of tropical!
This is Senkori after the renewal of Edogari.
It seems to be made from Yamada-Nishiki, but it is not heavy, and the sake is fresh and clean. It has a refreshing and clean aftertaste with a rich umami while retaining the acidity that is typical of Sengoku! It goes down smoothly with low alcohol. It is delicious.
This is the first time I've had Yukidaruma, which I've been wanting to drink for a long time: ⛄️ Anyway, the label is just lovely ✨.
Silky mouthfeel, gassy and not as sweet as it looks, but very tasty 😋.
I'm sure I'll run out of this again soon 💦.
I will buy it again when I find it as a bottle to drink at the end of the year 🍶.
Good evening, Koichan 😃.
Congrats on your first snowman 🎉☃️㊗️
It's so pretty to look at😍so good to drink 😋 I'm sure you'll kill it in a blink of an eye🤗.
Mr. Jay & Mr. Nobby
Good evening! Thank you for your comments as always 😭I really wish I could get a bottle of this in the blink of an eye.
I will definitely get another one to enjoy at the end of the year 🍶.
Fall sake before December!
Surprisingly crisp when you try it!
Sourness comes first, then a slight sweetness at the end of bitterness.
In a word, sweet and sour.
It is more drinkable than summer sake.
I'm so excited to welcome Snowdal, which I've been wanting to try since I got back into sake 😭I thought it would take a while to open the bottle, but it opened with a gentle swoosh 🍶🤤You can even get the top clear 🤤The top clear has a clean sourness and strong gassy feeling, yum~🥴 lees. When you mix it, it adds a milky feeling and hits you with a great balance of sweet, sour, bitter and gassy 😋I'm glad I got to drink this 😭💕.
Good evening, Nao888.
It's truly an emotional moment when you are able to welcome the sake you've been wanting to drink: ⤴️
The balance of flavors that come at you - that sounds like a delicious review ✨.
I suddenly want to try drinking it someday😊.
Good evening, ma-ki. Thank you very much for your kind words, I heard that it is one of the three best nigori sake, so I was very happy to be able to drink it. ☺️ I'm fantasizing about having another one this season 😋.
Purchased at the usual liquor store. Sentori is going to change to a "sake brewing" method from next season.
It is a fire-brewed sake, but it is very fresh with a slight effervescence. It has a sweet taste, but it is not clingy and is very easy to drink!
A Year-End Party of Sake-no-wa Kansai Branch (11)
This is the sake brought by Mr. Masha!
I've had seasonal limited edition sake of SENKYO, but this is my first time to drink classic SENKYO!
I think I've never had Kame-no-o rice before either.
I thought the acidity was moderate! Personally, I'm a classicist 😍.
Not classic, but classic 😰.
Thank you Masha 😁.
Hi Ao 😃
Hi Ao, how are you doing? Ao, it was your first time to try Classic Sentori too 😳I'm glad you were able to drink the current version even before the Edo Gaegae 👍.
In case you are wondering, it's pronounced "Classic" and the letters are classic!
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
First time drinking it 😁 I didn't know it was discontinued this season until Masha told me 😰.
Glad I was able to drink it last 😍.
I see how you pronounce it and the letters 😁.
