This is the first time I have had this sake, and it is a delicious sake with the sweetness and umami of rice.
It was a very satisfying drink that goes well not only with Japanese food, but also with Western food.
This is the sake we received at the "Yasubeya Sake Brewery Opening" ⑬.
Another great sake!
Also in Kyoto! In Osaka? In Osaka?
You can't buy this sake anywhere else 😨.
The fake brewer of Shinshu Kamerei 📷😱😅
I was a little drunk but I sure tasted it 😍.
Delicious 😊 no alcohol taste, fruity and smooth, this is a deliciously squeezed fruit juice that drinks like water 😍.
The snacks I brought were roast pork and loin beef or meat tataki from (Nagaoka Tenjin Meat Kunishige) which is popular in my house.
Advertisement If you're in the area, be sure to stop by! Try the roast pork at Meat Kunishige 😊.
Good evening, Ao-chan 😀
That pile of meat was a gift from Ao-chan 😀.
Sorry I was too busy to say thank you 🙇.
It was left over after everyone left, so I had it for lunch and the next night 😇
Hi Ao 🐦.
The meat series was so delicious 😻Thank you for treating us to so much, even if it was at a friend's price 🙏.
I was so impressed because in Kyoto and Shiga, you can't find Imi even for a drink outside 😭.
Ponchan, good evening... ♪
Thank you 😊
I really can't drink this alcohol 😅.
I wonder if there are any stores in Kyoto and Shiga that carry it?
I'll drink it when I find it 😍 because I don't enjoy it even if I can easily buy it.
Yasubeyes' warehouse opening party (5)
How many rare drinks will they let us drink?
I was impressed by this one, which I haven't encountered even when drinking outside!
I was very drunk, but the taste was so good that I was in a state of lethargy😇.
The last of Yasube's selections was Yonotori!
It was a great idea to bring something you can drink like a dessert!
I remember Aladdin and I were talking about Demachi Futaba.
I wonder if he made a terrible detour to buy it for us?
I'm sorry I didn't thank you properly.
That's all I remember😅
I left first.
Thank you Yasbay and Aladdin for the ride 🙏.
Thank you Yasbaye & Kaorin for hosting, Uma Uma Uma Uma for organizing, and thank you to everyone 😊.
The day after I came to my senses, I promised myself to clean the house 🤭.
The End
Hi Pon 😀
Thank you for your hard work on that day 🙏.
I've been stocking up on Imi for quite a while now, but I've been saving it in case I get a chance to have Pon-chan drink it someday😇.
Good evening, Yuki 🦉🦉.
Mr. and Mrs. Yasubeyes are really generous to serve us more and more 😭🙏I'm weak and can't drink that much, but each person consumes an average of 1.5 Yong bottles 😳You are all very strong ‼️
Thank you Yasbay for the food😊🙏 I felt like I was in ascension😇.
I enjoyed the hospitality and coziness 🙇 Thank you so much 🙏.
So! I'll clean my house too 😂.
Good morning, Pon-chan 😃.
It was really awesome ☺️
I bought some Demachi Futaba's Mamemochi (bean cake) in Osaka as a sweet treat to go with the sake, in case you want to join us after the 2nd party 😊.
I look forward to the opportunity to work with you again 🍶😄
Good evening, Aladdin 🦉.
I see you stopped by Osaka! I bet you had to wait in line 💦Thanks for the food 🙏✨I think I'm going to be addicted to the sweet and sake pairing 😁.
Please let me know more about it 😊.
Thank you Jay & Nobby for having us here 😊.
We were served in an order that we never got tired of drinking and we drank a lot of it deliciously 😆.
We had so much to talk about that I lost my voice the next day🤣It's really fun 😊🎶.
Pon.
Good morning...
I can only say that I'm jealous of all the drinks you've posted so far 😅Yasbaye family stock everything 🤩I wish I could invite you over 🤤 Too far away or not: ......
Hello, Kozo-san 🐦.
I like it 😆 I appreciate the amount of work that went into getting it all together and the generosity of your heart in offering it 🙏 I realized that it's people like that who bring people and alcohol to the table 😊.
Thank you for participating in the kurabiraki 🙏1️⃣ 2️⃣
The last of the 12 YASUBAE First Choice bottles was this one from Imi Sake.
It is said to be hard to find, but you can get one or two bottles a month at a local liquor store 😇.
Actually, Pon-chan told me before that she had never had this sake before, so I decided to use it as the last sake for the closing ceremony😇.
Yasbay, again 🙏😊.
Thank you so much for remembering 😭🙏 It was so delicious 😻I couldn't be happier with all the high specs this time and I hardly drank any of them ✨.
Yasbaye family's warehouse party⑬.
I didn't expect to be able to drink until the Imi.
◉Izumi Tokubetsu Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake BY5
Too rich, too umami, too rich, too rich. I liked this sake too much.
I was surprised by this sake. I was surprised. It is a raw sake, but it has been kept in a cellar, so there is no twitching or anything like that, and in fact, it may have been aged too long at low temperature.
Yasubeyes' warehouse opening party (⑫)
I brought my own sake to last year's Sakai "bring your own" party.
I didn't think I would be able to drink it again this year 🥺.
I thought the peculiar back label was the same, but it seems to be the same lot I got last year!
It's January 24, but thanks to the excellent care at the Yasubeyes' house, it didn't age at all and tasted great 😋.
It has a strawberry-like berry taste, which is my favorite among all YASUBEI's.
Imbi, black
Looking into the glass, you can see a soft color with slight haori mixed in. From the appearance, you can sense the depth of the wine. The aroma is soft and sweet, gently enveloping you even before you drink it.
The first thing that spreads when you take a sip is an elegant, soft sweetness. The contrast between the sweetness and bitterness is exquisite, and the sake has a complex expression, just like wine.
It is a sake that makes you think, "I want to let it sit for a while. Just imagining how the balance of sweetness and bitterness will change with aging... is exciting 😊.
The second of our friends drinking party was the first time I was in the shooting beauty.
I did not know that low-polished rice is called "black rice" 🧐.
I thought the 17% alcohol content from Shinshu Kamerei would give it a bit of a kick, but I got the impression that it was a beautiful sake with just the right amount of sweetness from the low-polished rice 🤤.
Rice: Ibi no Homare
Rice polishing ratio: 80% Sake meter: - Acidity: - Amino acidity: - Alcoholic strength: 17
BLACK Hitomi was brewed for the first time in 10 years.
It is made with a rice polishing ratio of 80% (sake rice is Ibi no Homare),
The umami, rather than the sweetness, comes to the forefront.
It is a completely different sake from the usual Hatsumi,
It is a completely different sake from the usual Hatsumi, but it has a deep flavor of its own.
Finally got a hold of this bottle of Imi!
White is made from white malted rice.
The aroma is mellow and rich.
In the mouth, the rich sweetness is accented with sourness, which is different from the past sake made with white malted rice!
Although it is said to be a food sake, it can be enjoyed on its own as well!
It has been a while since I have posted.
Frankly, I feel good 👍✨.
Good company and good sake.
It's a nice, refreshing drink, but you can feel the goodness of the umami...
I want to drink more, so this is it for now 😋.
Hello, good morning, good morning!
Drinking is fun not only for what you drink, but also for who you drink it with ✨.
I'd love to have a drink with you sometime 🤤.
I hope you had a great time drinking 🤗.
Thank you very much, Uma-san.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our unscheduled participation from the beginning. 🙇♂️
The food was also delicious. ☺️
I really appreciate Kaorin, Yasubeyesan and Umaisan this time 😊.
Ummm, I didn't know you were posting live 😳‼️ 😆.
Thank you for the other day 😊It was nothing but fun really 🎶.
The eimi was delicious 🙏 Thanks for the ❣️ totally nice to meet you 🙏.
Hi ma-ki-, Hello 🎵.
It's been a while. A drink with good friends and a precious drink that is hard to find.... I was really happy to have achieved both of these wonderful elements😻
Hi Jay & Nobby 🎵!
Thank you so much for taking the time to join us on another matter over the past day 😄📲It's always a pleasure to be with you and your fun friends💕.
Hello Aladdin!
We had been chatting on line at the offline meeting, so I didn't feel any different, but it's been more than a year since we met 😅It was a very exciting party, that's why we can't stop drinking, right?
Hi Pon-chan 🎵
I'm deeply grateful to Yasube & Kaorin! It was a punchy party where I could enjoy all the hard-to-find sakes at once 🤣 Let's go back to "Ojisan" again ✨!
The shooting beauty that you drink when it's on the menu.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 16%.
Ibi no Homare
This time it is a junmai ginjo.
The fruity sweetness like a peach is followed by a clear crispness.
It's a complete turnaround, but the fact that you can feel it like this is what makes it so delicious 😊.
I think this was the most spectacular Imi I've had so far 🤔.
This one continues with sushi 🍣 and edamame 🫛.
This time we were served "Imi Tokujun 15" ✨.
The sweet aroma that wafts softly from the moment it is poured into the glass is fruity, reminiscent of strawberries🍓.
It has a fruity freshness and prettiness, and the anticipation is high even before you drink it.
In the mouth, the aroma spreads directly to the flavor, and the sweetness and umami are in perfect harmony.
While it has a strong, full-bodied flavor, the aftertaste is light and elegant, and disappears without a hitch.
It was truly "sweet and delicious! is the only word that comes to mind.
It was gorgeous and fruity, yet still had the depth that is typical of Japanese sake ✨.
This is a limited edition sake from Imi that has been sitting for almost 2 years 🍶.
I wondered if it was safe to leave it so long even though it was a draft sake.
I wondered if it was safe to leave it so long 🍾 and opened the bottle this year on its 133rd anniversary.
It's a little sweet because it's been left too long, but it's still delicious 😋.
The label is also playful and nice.
It is a gift, but a rare one from a rare brand, thank you very much 🙏.
I know it's hard to make sake in a small brewery, but please do your best for the 141st anniversary: ‼️
- ̗̀(˶^Insertion'˶)b🍶🍶🍶🍶
At Sakeiki Daigo, No.2
Next, we had a WHITE Sake from Imi.
I ordered it myself, but my partner drank most of it because he said it was so good 😅I had a little bit of the leftover Sagami, which had a good balance of sweetness and sourness 😊and a clean aftertaste 😚👍✨My partner seemed to prefer it to Jigin 🥳.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀😀
It's been hot here 🥵 on a day like this, it's great to have a drink at Paradise Daigo🌴.
I love to have a drink at Paradise Daigo 🌴😊I can't go there often 😅I want to go there again 🥺 as the season changes and the sake changes too.
