Sashi drinking with Mr. Jaive (1)
Gyve and I exchange drinks when we meet at offline meetings, and he asked me if I would bring him some since he was going to Osaka. I was going to Osaka, so I asked him if he would like me to bring him some.
After hanging out at the Edion liquor store, Gyve-san said he was going to Nikomaru Sake Brewery in Kouhama, Suminoe, so I decided to go with him 🚃.
After that, we took the Hankai Line to Tennoji and went to Tesho Sake.
I hadn't been there since last year with Nemuchi and Yasube!
I've been wanting to go there since they opened a lot of rare sake during the GW 😍.
First up was the first release in 10 years, Sagami BLACK!
Not too sweet. Quite a complex taste.
The second half is more astringent and bitter.
I wondered what the complexity was, but it turns out that the rice polishing ratio was 80%.
Maybe it's a bit on the dry side 🤔.
Sake Koi Japan, Part 2.
As soon as I took my seat, I saw an extraordinary lineup.
I had no idea that there was an "Imi" (a kind of Japanese traditional drink)! I was taken aback.
Basically, I think that such rare sake is something I have no connection to, and I can only imagine and think about the taste by looking at the postings of the people at Sake-no-wa....
I met you here, but it's been a hundred years!
I will drink it to the end!
Mmm, strawberry!
I had imagined a slow-sweet sake, but it is surprisingly refreshingly sweet.
The acidity gives the sweetness a three-dimensional effect while also producing a lightness.
I don't know what kind of yeast is used, but the combination of flavor, sweetness, and sourness gives it a hint of aroma that reminds me of strawberries.
I thought it was a dessert type, but it might also be rather food-like in the abe sense.
I never thought I would be able to drink Imi while I was still alive...
I am a little deeply moved. (Laughs)
I'm a first time user of this product, and the aroma is good, but the bitterness and other tastes are what you would call a deep taste. I can't say it tastes very good.
If you try to buy a bottle in Aichi, you can't buy it unless you win a lottery, and you can't choose a type.
The label on the back of the bottle says the brewery's excuse, but I'm sorry that I don't have the taste buds to call this complex flavor delicious.
I wonder if I was a winner or a loser, even though I was able to buy it through the lottery.
Spring Girls' Gathering🌸 Part 4
Tsubu-chan brought a bottle of sake✨
I heard that I'll bring a bottle of ♡ but...I never thought it would be an 射美! It's been 6 years since I've had a bottle? I'm so happy 🥹 that it's the first pink label brewed in 6 years!
The sourness and sweetness are emphasized 🍓It has a cute taste that reminds me of strawberry drop 🍓 It is delicious with a clean aftertaste 😚 It was also served to the master and customers and we all enjoyed its deliciousness together 😊.
The cake in the photo, a local sake cake (sake financier) with Shinshu Kamerei Junmai-shu, was also a gift from Dora-san for the girls' party. I've never had such a juicy financier before, it's so moist, elegant and delicious!
Thank you, Tsubu-chan & Dora-san, for your thoughtfulness 🥹Thank you for the food!

We were also brainwashed when we read the label on the back.
In our heads 🍓.
Yes, it smells like 🍓😄♪
The mouthfeel is sweet with a gentle sourness
We feel strawberry 🍓😘.
And it's rather refreshing 😘.
It tastes different from the other ebisu I've been drinking 😋😋.
It is easy to drink and delicious 💕😚💕
I shared it with my teacher and the customers at the counter...
I'll share it with you 🤗
Under the bottle of Imi is a

Souvenir from Nanoha 😆💕.
We opened a bottle of Imi BLACK, which we were able to purchase last month.
It has a more robust and heavy bitterness than expected, a piquant spiciness that stimulates the tongue, and leaves a long aftertaste of bitterness again with the umami of the rice and a follow-up!
It was a classic, mature sake that was the complete opposite of the modern taste of today's sake.
This sake is more of a food sake than a stand-alone sake, and can be paired perfectly with fish and rich meat dishes.
