It's a little late for Grandpa and Grandma's New Year's Day. On New Year's Day, my grandson Minoru-chan, Minoru-chan and W Minoru-chan were sick with influenza. ✖️ January 11, 10 days late for New Year's Day 🎍. Old grandson and grandma are very happy to be able to ride unicycles and kick skates. January 11th is also the anniversary of Kuzo's death. We held a memorial service for Kyuzo's 7th anniversary 🍶. The offering was a lovely palm sized bottle of nigori sake 🍶 and sweet and sour yogurt. You can hear the commercial of Mr. Kizakura 🎶. Thank you for your support this year 🙇.

I found a small vial of something at the supermarket, When I removed the inside, I found a slightly sexy picture. It is "kappappappa~ruppappa~", The taste is.., It tastes a little spicy and refreshing, and gradually you can taste the umami. It's dangerous to drink it like water. As you drink it, you will start to feel a little bit of alcohol. It is a dangerous sake, but it was delicious. Today's beer, DHC Beer's Sppamikan Fruit Ale. It is not very sour, It has just the right amount of sourness, It has a nice sourness and a citrusy taste.

Futsu-shu cup sake that is light and smooth in the beginning before transitioning to somewhat tart in the finish. Tasting notes of pineapple and mint make this one refreshing.

God of Sake ⛩️ This is the sake I received at my first visit to the shrine. Yasubeyesan of Sake no Wa posted it 😍I also paid a visit to Matsuo Taisha 🙏. My son and grandson live near Matsuo Taisha 😊. I asked about the sake, because it was written as mixed sake, and it seems to be a mixture of various kinds of sake offered to the shrine, 'the brand name is Yellow Cherry Blossom etc.'. The taste is not so much the sake, but the fragrance of the Masu, or cedar? It was delicious.

Japanese>English

Ao, good evening 😀 It really tasted even better than usual with a strong aroma of cedar, or wood😇 Your son and grandson❓ I'm a little surprised that Ao has grandchildren ⁉️ You look young😇

Good evening, Yasbaye 😊. I was able to drink after seeing Yasbaye's post! Thank you 🙏. The smell of the wood brings out the flavor of the drink 😋. You look younger 😰Thank you 😊

Good morning, ma-ki-San 😁. The Masu sake in Yasube's post looks really delicious 😁. Please pay a visit to the sake god 👌 This year is the year of the Snake so I would like to pay a visit to the Ookami shrine too 🙏.

Hi Ao-chan 🐦. I like Matsuo-san's ⛩️ event, but I thought I should pay a visit to the shrine 😅. I can't see Otomi anymore, he looks like ze 🤣.

Good evening, Pon-chan. I went to Matsuo-taisha shrine for my 3rd hatsumode this year ⛩️ I really wanted to drink after seeing Yasube's post 😰 Please go visit the shrine 🙏. I'm sure it's ze! No matter how you look at it 😱.

Today I went to Umemiya-taisha Shrine and Matsuo-taisha Shrine in Kyoto, two of the three major sake shrines in Kyoto for Hatsumode (New Year's visit) 😀. First, Umemiya-taisha shrine: ⛩️ The sake served here was by Gekkeikan 😀. The sake we bought was from Sasaki Sake Brewery, which has re-labeled the label of their Jyugakudai sake exclusively for the shrine 😀. I was thrilled because I had just recently had a Shuwakimaseri featuring the main deity of the shrine, Shuwakimaseri 😇. Next, Matsuo-taisha shrine: ⛩️ It was bigger and had more worshippers than Umemiya-taisha, but still less crowded than other shrines in Kyoto 😇🙏. The sake is poured from a barrel for 200 yen when you buy a 1,000-yen barrel, and the barrels were owned by Kizakura and Kozutsumi 😇. The barrels were from Kizakura and Kozutsumi. We purchased two masu to commemorate the occasion and had both of them poured. The aroma of the wood was very fresh and the taste of the sake was more delicious than the sake we usually drink 😀. We experienced the New Year with sake: ㊗️

Japanese>English

ma-ki-

Hello, Yasube-san. I can only say that paying a visit to the sake god for the first time in the new year is just quintessential ✨. Pouring sake into a sake barrel is also very atmospheric 😊.

Japanese>English

Happy New Year, Yasube-san! I see you came to Kyoto! Fushimi Inari, Heian Shrine, Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, etc. are famous for Hatsumode in Kyoto, but I'm a drunk 😰, Matsuo Taisha, and Umemiya Taisha 😊. I'm looking forward to seeing you again this year 🙇.

Japanese>English

Good evening, ma-ki-chan 😀. After all, the New Year is the first visit to the God of Sake. ⛩️ Since I have already visited 2 shrines in Kyoto, I will go to Shoreki-ji Temple on the 11th for the Bodhi Hashimoto Sake Festival and then to Ogami-sha Shrine to complete my visit to the 3 major sake deities😇.

Japanese>English

Happy New Year, Ao: ㊗️ I look forward to seeing you again this year 🙇. Probably the famous temples and shrines in Kyoto will be in trouble, so I decided to visit the sake god 🤣. But thanks to you, I was able to visit slowly ⛩️

Good evening, Yasubey🦉. You are a true lover of drinking, visiting two sake gods 🥹✨I couldn't make it for New Year's, but I would love to visit you 🙏especially Umemiya-san, which I haven't been to! I'm sure you'll have lots of good things to do this year 😆👍

Japanese>English

Hi, Pon 😀 It seems that there are quite a few worshippers in Kyoto, so I was able to enjoy a relaxing sake in the precincts of the temple, so it was a good Hatsumode 😇. On the 11th, we are planning to go from the Bodhi Hashimoto Sake Festival at Shoreki-ji Temple to visit the Ojinja Shrine 😀.

There's an end of the year thing: "Relatives bring old booze." It's from December 2018 😂It tasted like Shaoxing sake. It's still drinkable because it's a mellow yamahai, but still bring it while it's still good~!

Sake brewery tour upon returning home Although most of the major sake breweries have a strong image of being sold in supermarkets, there are many delicious sake to be found in the tasting room! Reminds me of the Kappappa and Rumpappa TV commercials. I also got a sake stamp book label!

Tozai is one of the most commonly available sake brands in the USA. However, their futsu-shu (named Typhoon) is significantly harder to come by. I wanted to try it again and was really pleased that I did. It is a little bit fuller bodied and leans more towards umami than sweet. I thought it was really good for a futsu-shu. It was good both chilled and at room temperature. Hints of nuts and some banana. I recommend giving it a try and seeing what you think if you ever come across it.

Following last night, today's dinner started with a one-cup sake. The brand of sake rice is unknown (koji rice: Shuku, kake rice: Kyo no Kiseki), Polishing ratio 50%. It has a rounded mouthfeel with no peculiarities, which explains why it has been sold for many years. ☺️
