The umami and acidity mix well together, making it easy to drink even though it is a pure sake. The umami is backed up by a nastiness that does not insist on being assertive. It can be served with bonito tataki without garlic, but the garlic would defeat it. It goes well with tomato and lettuce salad. It brings the umami to the forefront.
Kirifuri-san was chosen as the J&N New Year's Eve Sake❗️ end of the year we were drinking apart from each other 🥲 so we decided to drink together once more this time 🤗.
We have already had the gold letter one, the blue letter one, the gold letter one more time at the end of the year, and now the red letter special junmai one.
This special junmai has the most concentrated rice flavor of all the Kirifuri series 😊.
I'll make love to you
I'll make love to you! I knew it would be consistently delicious 😌!
The usual combination of acidity and sweetness! Maybe it's because I saw that it concentrates the flavor of the rice, or maybe it's a little sweet, but it's definitely delicious 😋.
And the snack of the day was leftovers from the fridge and a recording of the WBC⚾️ special broadcast at the end of last year😄.
The video recordings of the Samurai's sufferings, exploits, and the joy 🙌 that lies ahead make a good snack 😚.
As Ace-san said, it's always moving no matter how many times you watch it 🥹.
I thought the 6 hours long broadcast would be too long to watch the whole thing 😅 but what the heck, I watched it all the way through and shared the excitement 🥹.
Naturally, I had a bottle of alcohol on the way, so I watched the second half of the show while drinking tea🍵. ☺️
Tochigi love 🥰 with all three colors of foggy rain
Jay & Nobby. Good evening. You are indeed Senkino's hometown. I had never heard of frostbite. I wonder if there are many local brands.
By the way, Tochigi and the opening of the L&R are also very exciting.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby. ☀️
Drinking apart and then drinking together again, the Tochigi love as well as the husband and wife love is amazing ❤️
It's twice as tasty when you drink together👍.
Good morning Jay & Nobby😃.
I envy you that you can drink foggy anytime 🥺If I lived in Tochigi, I might drink it everyday... 🙄 I don't think I will ever live there 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby, (^o^) Kirifuri is really delicious. I envy you for having such a delicious sake in your hometown. I also watched the WBC special at the end of the year! I was really impressed once again and it was a fast-paced 6 hours!
Hi Maru 😃
That's right! There's something to be said for the foggy weather in the first place, but it's 100 times more delicious when you drink it with two people 🥰.
Hi Rafa papa 😃
Thank you so much 😊This red label is the best in terms of cost performance! Utsunomiya is very popular right now and the number of people moving to Utsunomiya is increasing 🤗Please consider 👋
Hi Yasbay 😃
I knew that the best thing to do is to have a calm drink at home 🏠 ☺️ and we were talking about it last night too 🤗Connecting over drinks 😆.
I didn't know there was a gold letter in foggy fall!
Hello J & Nobby 👋
Speaking of the Samurai, the end of the year "battle cry" is the annual event where we can say that we are fallen warriors.
I quite like that thing where they share their joys and disappointments with their respective families!
Good evening, Mr. Sakeran 😃.
The gold letters are Junmai Daiginjo 🤗.
Warnings! Your family👪 support makes me cry 🥹Happy endings are different for everyone 😌.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby☆(*´ч`*)!
I didn't get to see the WBC special... 🙄 But I loved the look on Otani's face after his second base hit against Mexico 😂Sports are so inspiring!
Domaine method, Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture. Completely additive-free, made from rare ancient rice instead of sake brewing rice. Organic Kame-no-o, 90% polished rice.
Slowly and painstakingly growing natural yeast, and the wooden vat brewing is excellent. Tochigi is a place I have deep feelings for, having moved to the area for a bit as a child.
Where I lived, the winters were bitterly cold and there was a strong gale. The strong north wind from Watarase used to scare me as a child.
I wonder how difficult it is to live in Japan with its high temperatures, humidity, and frequent natural disasters. Delicious. This is my favorite.
Good evening, marumaruo 😃.
I see that you used to live here 🤗 and I'm so happy that you can enjoy drinking good sake 😌.
Keep up the natural Tochigi love 🥰😆.
Kirifuri
Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu
Price: priceless

A gift from J&N✨
J&N-san invited us to their first off-line meeting in October when they came to Hiroshima on a trip.
We received a bottle of Senkyu's local sake "Kirifuri" at that time!
We were so touched by their love for Tochigi that they brought this sake, which is never available in Hiroshima, along with a cooler in a bag to keep it cool 🥺.
We chose the most memorable sake of the year for our last bottle of the year🤗.
Let's have it now!
Yum!
It has a different sake quality from Sentori, but it has a refreshing taste with a hint of Sentori-style acidity 🤤.
I'm jealous that I can easily buy it at my local supermarket 😆.
( ᐛ )وgugg!
Love Tochigi🫶23
Tochigi sake 🍶100in
Thank you all for your comments this year 🤗.
Thanks to all of you, we were able to continue to have fun 🤗.
I look forward to working with you again next year 🙇.
T-Kaji, good evening 🌛Kirifuri looks delicious 😋The labels are too clever, so it's hard to read and easy to get the kanji wrong 💦If you make a mistake, you look like a comedy duo 😅J&N's thoughtfulness is also nice💕🤗
Good evening, T-kaji😄.
A gift from Jay & Nobby, indeed priceless. ☺️
Its also good to finish this year's drinking at Fog of Memories 😊.
Have a drunken New Year 🍶.
Good evening, T-Kaji 😃.
Thank you for your heartbreaking post at the end of the year 🥹Coincidentally, we also closed the year with a Kirifuri 🤗.
And this is my 100th bottle of Tochigi sake 👍‼️ good luck!
See you soon 👋
Good morning, J&N!
What a surprise that the foggy fall was the last one last year there too ∑🫢‼️
What a coincidence!
Yes, I forgot I was adjusting my Tochigi sake exactly at the 100th bottle 🤣.
I hope to see you again 👋.
T-Kaji Happy New Year 🎍 and all the best for the new year 😃.
I bought some Kirifuri when I went to Tochigi off-line meeting 😊It's delicious 😋Tochigi is too amazing that such a thing is sold in ordinary supermarkets🤣.
The year is finally coming to an end 😌.
The end of the year for J&N is still Tochigi sake, and we were reminded of its greatness at the ‼️ Kenmin Kai, and this year will be the third bottle of Kirifuri Sake 🤗.
At the end of this year, Jay and Nobby will be spending time with their parents separately at their respective parents' homes from the 30th to the beginning of the new year, and will meet again 🥹 in Utsunomiya on 1/1.
So the plan for the end of the year is to buy Sandesi and bring them to each other's parents' homes!
They are in Ichikawa City and Noda City in the same Chiba Prefecture, about 30 km away🙂.
So let's have a toast remotely!
Yes, I knew Sentori ‼️ is stable and delicious 😋I have to drink it with both of us to get into serious mode 😅I'm thankful that this size is available😄.
--At the end of the year, I was blessed with many encounters in 2023.
The year 2023 was a year blessed with many encounters ☺️I had a lot of fun in my hometown Tochigi and on my travels through Sake no Wa, and I also awakened to the joy of drinking iron😄.
In 2024, we hope to continue drinking and laughing together while seeking such fun encounters 😚.
So everyone, be careful not to drink too much😅Have a good drinking and drunken New Year 😅🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️
The last drink of 2023 is also Tochigi Ai 🥰.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 😃.
The last one is also a great ending to Tochigi Ai ❤️ 😆 I'm really sorry we didn't meet this year, so we will stop on the way when we go back home in the future, please come back next year 😊.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good evening...
I know the last repo is also great 🥰 love Tochigi 🥰 and your parents' house is also hard 💦 it looks like you and your wife are enjoying remote drinking even though you are far away from each other! It was a pleasure to meet you and everyone else this year 🜂.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
Thank you for all your help this year 🙇 We had a fun sake LIFE!
Even though we spent the end of the year apart, we still love Tochigi 🥰 as always 👍.
I look forward to working with you again in 2024 👋
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌖.
Consistent love for Tochigi, I think it's great👍.
It was a pleasure meeting you this year😊.

J&N, konbanhar (o´ omega`o)no~~.
I'm sad to see the New Year's Eve apart, but I'll be waiting for your lovey-dovey review on New Year's Day 💑.
Let's drink again next year 🥂.
Have a great new year 🎍🐲.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌇.
Thank you again for your hospitality this year.

Remote drinking with a couple is also very innovative 👍.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
It is a great idea to end the year in Tochigi, isn't it? I am working at the end and beginning of the year, so I have not come up with such an idea, but I would like to go to Chiba for my first drink. Please have a happy New Year!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
For me, it was the first time I came to Sake no Wa and my drinking world expanded when JN-san approached me 😀.
Thank you so much... and please do keep up the good work next year 😀
Good evening, Jay & Nobi 🌃😀
Thank you for your support this year 🙇✨Let's end this year with a local Tochigi sake 🍶´- love Tochigi 💕quickly ✨This year is almost over. Have a happy new year 🥳.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙Thank you for your many comments to me as a sakewa newbie🔰😊I was looking at the couple love ❤️ Tochigi love ❤️ with a smile on my face. I look forward to seeing you next year 🧧🙇.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby. It is too nice that the two of you are going home together with the same Tochigi sake. I know you will be busy at your parents' home during the year-end and New Year's holidays, but please have a nice New Year's holiday 😊.
Good evening Jay & Nobby! I'm a newbie to Tochigi, but I always enjoyed and appreciated the comments I received from you two. I look forward to working with you again next year! I will enjoy Utsunomiya to the fullest!
Jay & Nobby Good evening (^o^) The last of the year is Tochigi love with Tochigi sake 😄 It's a very good sake and a great way to end the year. Thank you very much for your support this year. We look forward to working with you again next year.
Happy New Year, J&N 🎍.
You came up with another novel idea, bringing Tochigi sake to each of our parents' homes 🫶 and Tochigi love 🤭.
I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇.
Happy New Year to Jay and Nobby 🎍.
It's so stylish to toast the same drink in different places 🥂😊Thank you for your help last year at the Tochigi Offline Meeting😃Thank you again this year 😌.
Jay & Nobby. Happy New Year ⛩. Tochigi❤️, your conjugal love is wonderful. And Sentori this is also great. I will keep an eye on J&N's posts this year. Best regards.
Happy New Year 🎍 to Jay & Nobby ㊗️ I hope you and your wife joined us today as Tanabata 😁.
I'm not a resident of Tochigi prefecture myself, but please add me to the Senkou bias team! I look forward to working with you again this year 😄.
Happy New Year Jay & Nobby ✨Your love of Tochigi is wonderful ✨Here we don't drink much sake from Hokkaido or my hometown Kagawa 😅More sake from Nagasaki, my wife's hometown 🍶Thank you again for your support this year👍.
Happy New Year to you, Wakata 🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
I hope to see you this year! Looking forward to hearing from you 😄
Happy New Year 🌅🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
I tend to think of the story in terms of Tochigi sake 😅 Let's connect with each other this year too 😄.
Happy New Year, bouken 🌅New Year's greetings to you too🤗.
I have a feeling we will be drinking Tochigi sake again in the new year 😆 I would love to talk to you again 😊.
Happy New Year, Jive 🌅 and I hope you have a great year 🤗.
Sure! The bullet train will be connected this year and I don't think it will be a one and done deal 😁.
I'm so relieved to hear that you are safe ☺️
Happy New Year 🌅🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
I guess I'll end with Tochigi love 🥰😄.
I am relieved to hear that you are safe from the earthquake... ☺️
Happy New Year 🌅🌅New Year's greetings to you too 🤗
I'm not sure what I'll end up with since there are so many good Tochigi sake 😅I'll see you again 👋 at the Kenmin-kai.
Rafa papa, Happy New Year 🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
Sorry for showing J&N's unconcealed sense of style 😆 Please join us again ☺️
WOM, Happy New Year 🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
We will be going full throttle with our Tochigi love 🥰 this year too 😆.
Happy New Year to you, Joe 🌅 and best wishes for the new year 🤗.
Not to mention the Senpou prejudice! If you don't mind, I welcome you to the prefects' association 😁😊.
Masaaki Sapporo, Happy New Year 🌅New Year's greetings 🤗!
Tochigi is blessed with a lot of sake 😆 but it's still only about 20% of the total 😅 sometimes it's good to drink sake from home 😉.
Happy New Year, Jay & Nobby 🎍!
The year ends with Tochigi love🥰 and your love for each other🥰 and sakewa love🥰 is also wonderful👍✨May this year be filled with lots of love💕✨.
Happy New Year, Pon-chan 🌅 and I look forward to working with you in the new year 🤗.
I will sprinkle a lot of sakewa love 🥰 along with Tochigi love 🥰 😆.
If you are a member of Tochigi Prefecture, you must drink Kirifuri, and I finally bought it at a roadside station during my expedition.
I bought a bottle of Tokujun, which has the aroma and acidity of Sentori itself 😋, but it is more rounded than the usual Sentori.
I haven't had Sentori in about 5 months because I thought I could drink it anytime, but Kirifuri is good too👍.
I'd like to try Junmai Ginjo someday.
Good evening, Mr. Bousuke 😃.
Oh! The proof of a Tochigi resident 😆 🤗!
I can feel the local advantage to be able to enjoy this 😌It's really delicious 😋.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😃.
I finally got my hands on it😅
I had seen it at a roadside station for a while now, but your story about the members has convinced me 😁.
Today at Taoya Nikko Kirifuri
I chose this sake without much thought.
This was Senkin's local sake!
I didn't know that.
It doesn't have a lot of nama-zake character.
It's very refreshing!
I have another bottle coming up, so I'll have to hold off.
Good evening, Momochi 😃.
I like Taoya Nikko Kirifukuri ‼️ 🤩all drinks are included 🤗I'm jealous 😍!
You'll know Kirifuri is Senkou when you drink it 😄 Enjoy 👋
Still posting about the drinks I had last weekend😅.
After a series of sweet sake from Kinkame to Haneya, let's have a refreshing sake! So, I chose this one, which is a strong friend of us Tochigi people: ‼️
It is very popular among Tochigi residents and guests 🎵So ❗️ Kirifuri Sake🤗.
Last month's first drink was a Daiginjo, and this time it was a Ginjo👍.
Well, here we go🤗!
Yes, I did! It's a great answer 👍It's still delicious with a refreshing sweet and sour taste 😄☺️Senkou is the best 😄!
By the way, Friday morning was Jay's regular checkup, which is every 3 months, but every 6 months he has to have a blood test 😨.
This time, I skipped drinking for 4 days from Monday to Thursday 😤.
Cholesterol and triglycerides are the main points of the blood test results, but Jay is only concerned about the gamma GTP: ‼️
While pretending to listen to the doctor, I followed the test results with my eyes................................nervous!
😰😨😳🙂☺️🤩
Hi ‼️ results okay🤗
Last night I enjoyed the rest of the Haneya and Foggy Fountain and one more bottle 😙.
I'm so relieved 🥰 love Tochigi!
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😃Your liver function is drummed, thank you for the checkup 😊This means you can live a wonderful drinking life again with peace of mind 👍I am ashamed to say that I did not know about Foggy Fountain. I would love to meet you 😆💦.
Good evening, J&N 😃.
I see your liver function was ok ✌️
I guess you don't have to have a rest day anymore 😅.
Foggy ‼️ I'll just have to use my precious Tochigi sake here and go buy some at the co-op 😘.
Jay & Nobby Good evening (^o^) and thank you for the routine checkup. I am glad to hear that everything was all right. I think it is really cosy and tasty, isn't it?
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙
Thanks for the checkup 💦and I'm relieved to hear it was good😊Enjoy your break from drinking for a while 😆🎶.
I'd like to try a foggy fall, which I've never seen before!
Good morning Jay & Nobby😃.
Foggy is the best thing you can buy at Yaokoh when it's that good 🤣 local info was sure 😌 glad your test results are good 😊 drink as much as you want for a while 😁.
Hi Wakata 😃.
I'm not diagnosed with liver function 😅I'm happy that the most important point is good 🤗Kirifuri is a local sake from Senkou and it's really good 😋 please wake me up 😊.
Hi 3KAN4ON 😃
I was happy to see good results ☺️ Well, the rest day is to give a break to my drinking life 😅Tochigi there are so many drinks, it's hard to decide 😁.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
I'm so relieved to see your test results and drink alcohol again 😀.
I also have to have a blood test once every 6 months for my job, but I'm nervous because I can't work if the results are bad😅.
This is my first time to see this Senkin!
Good morning, Yasbay 😃.
I'm glad to hear that ☺️ I was scared 😱 that I would not be able to drink until I saw the results 😅 I was terrified that I would not be able to drink ⁉️
This is Sentori's local sake! Please come visit us 🤗
Hi Jay & Nobby😄!
I'm glad your test results are good 🤗you can have your evening drink in peace 😁.
I'm sure that the Tochigi-Kenmin-Kai has sent out the word about Foggy Fountain and it has become quite well known 😆 ♫ I'd be happy if you all could have a drink 🤗.
Spoils of War from last month's Tochigi Prefects' Meeting - ⤴️🍶
Sake by Sentori, just for Tochigi residents ✨🍶❕.
Again, I got it at Yaoko in front of the station.
Refreshing, clean, fruity🌸🍶✨.
Sweet 🐴, slightly sour and oicy ❕.
Mmm, honey lemon for adults🍯🐝🍋❗️
I wish our neighborhood was in Tochigi prefecture ⤴️😆
I'm enjoying it very much.
Kirifuri Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Genshu
KazKaz-san told us about it at the Tochigi Kenmin Kai.
I was told about it by KazKaz at the Tochigi citizens meeting 😆.
It is sold at Yaoko, a regular supermarket
It's sold at Yaoko 😊.
But...
Sentori mark on the label and cap 👀.
Yes...
It's made by SENKIN Co.
It's Yamada Nishiki, so I guess it's a modern innocent 🙄.
But the rice polishing ratio is
Modern Mukun is 60% Kirifuri 50%.
It has a good balance of sweetness and sourness like SENKIN
It is very delicious 😋.
It is also easy on the wallet... 😌.
Sashu-san's recommended dumplings 🥟.
The first harvest of broccoli from the field 🥦.
Saikyo pickled gindara cod 🐟.
thick fried tofu
Black soybean edamame🫛.
with...
I was manacled in no time 🤣.
Good morning, Rafa papa 😃.
We've finally opened the foggy weather 🎵.
Sake for Tochigi people by Sentori 🍶‼️
It tastes almost like Sentori 😆.
Please come back to Utsunomiya to purchase some more(^-^)/
Good morning, KazKaz 😃.
The local people's information is never wrong 🤣I think Sentori is the quintessential sake maker for Tochigi people 😌You have to go to Utsunomiya to buy it... 🙄🤣.
Hi Rafa😄
Oh you drank Foggy Fowl 🥰 for Tochigi prefecture ❣️
It's good with dumplings🥟 and 🥦😋👍
Please come to Tochigi again 🤗.
I didn't drink it yet because I can get it anytime 🤣.
Hello Haruei Chichi 😃
Are you already thinking about planning the next prefect meeting 😳⁉️ next time we go together... 😆 please schedule it to coincide with my return 🤣.
Hi Tsubu 😃
You haven't drunk Kirifuri yet 😳⁉️ how is that for a resident of Tochigi prefecture... 😁I can get it anytime I want 😆I also drank the autumn deer cup 🦌 for the first time since I got home... 😅
Rafa papa, Foggy Fog is delicious, isn't it? I was very impressed by the cost-effectiveness of this dish (^o^), and I am glad that you said the gyoza was delicious. Gyoza and sake go well together, don't they?
Good evening, Mr. Sashu 😃.
As recommended by Mr. Sashiu, the gravy was juicy and very tasty 🦌🤣Kirifuri is a sake that can be easily paired with any meal 😋.
Good morning, Rafa papa 😃.
The line up of kirifuri at Yaokoh is spectacular 😊 but we bought our first one the other day on the recommendation of Mr. Alanin, who is also a passionate speaker at the prefectural meeting 😅.
It's delicious 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
I'm jealous of the regular line at Yaoko 😆 It looks like it was Beta Alanin who started the whole thing 😁 It's great to hear some unique local information: ☺️
It started with a conversation about a sake-loving daughter (in her 20s) at a friend's workplace.
After some discussion, we decided to hold the event at our house.
Since it was a special opportunity, I asked Kazkaz and Sashu to join us. OK!
There were 8 of us, but my wife was cooking, so there were actually 7 of us.
The first bottle was Kirifuri, a gift from Mr. Kazkaz. It is said to be a distributed version of Sentori in Tochigi Prefecture, and naturally, the taste is just like Sentori! The balance of sweetness and sourness with a little bit of gas, and the crispness of the aftertaste....
It's so good!
It is available at a local supermarket at a reasonable price.
Thanks for the treat!
Good evening Colonel Lal 😃.
I saw your post on Sashiu's post and it is a wonderful hospitality party 🥹.
Tochigi souvenirs from Kirifuri-san ‼️ are delicious 😋.
What a pleasure to have Tochigi sake as the top batter 🤗.
Colonel Lal Good evening (^o^) and thank you so much for your help. It was fun. And the Sentori Kirifuki was really delicious. It is the best as a starting sake.
Colonel Lal, good evening 🌇.
I also found out from Sashiu's post that you can invite that many people because you have a spacious house and a wife who is a great cook 😊.
I am so envious of you👍
J&N, good evening 😁.
My wife thought of all the dishes and handmade them for me ✌️ Thanks seriously as always 🤗
The foggy rain is delicious 😋kazkaz thanks to you 🤘.
Hi Chichi, good evening 😁.
No, it's a remodeled apartment of the original structure, so it's almost a living room house 😅.
To be honest, less than 10 people is not even a big group 🤯, but I think my wife must be quite tired after cooking 🤘.
Yesterday, I was invited by Colonel Lal to a sake party. Eight of us drank at Colonel Lal's home. I was nervous because many of us had never met each other before, but I was relieved to see KazKaz there.
The first thing that surprised me was the menu (^o^). And all the dishes were really delicious. I really appreciate Colonel Lal's wife.
First of all, KazKaz brought his own Kirifuri (^o^)I forgot to take a picture of it, so I used the one I bought. The aroma is light citrusy. When I drank it, I felt sweetness and slight carbonation. Then it has a sourness and balance that is typical of Sengoku. It was great as a starting sake (^o^). It went well with Iburi gakko (pickled ginger), and it was perfect with muscat salad. This acidity and muscat. I was impressed because I had never paired it with fruits before. I was impressed because I had never paired it with fruit before.
Haruei Chichi-san Good evening (^o^) It was really a wonderful party. And I was really surprised at the menu. I really felt it was wonderful to talk with sake lovers.
Good evening, Mr. Sashu😄.
Sake party at Colonel Lal's house 🍶 awesome 〰︎‼️
The menu really looks like a ryotei ✨🫢.
It's a great party with lots of sake and food pairings 😆🙌Cheers 🥂and foggy 🥰👍
★4.5
Senkin's local brand
It remains fruity and fresh while being fire-aged.
It has a nutty and savory nuance.
I think I like it better than the SENKIN line.
