This sake is said to be a collaboration with Mr. Mekada.
Aizan! Nigori sake!!!! I bought it without a second thought because it was a rare combo of the two.
It has a mild taste with the sweetness of rice.
It was a treat.
Hi Jay & Nobby!
It was made to order around March, I believe, ......, and I couldn't help but order it even though I was supposed to be there for another sake at the time, lol!
I've never had Miyamanishiki Chuai on the contrary, I'd like to drink it!
Chuai Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu, 3,465 yen
Today's snacks: Teppan Grilled Lamb, Butter Grilled Scallops with String, Chilled Tofu, Fukino Miso, Snap Peas, etc. ‼️
We opened a bottle of this one that we have had several times: ‼️
The aroma is stable ginjo aroma‼️ and the first attack is astringent sweet, not too sweet and not too bitter 🤣
I ran out of 2 gou in no time. m(_ _)m
It's my first personnel change in 7 years.
I'm exhausted every day with a job I don't understand and coworkers I have to take care of because it's so nice to meet them 😣.
Geez....
...I am healed by drinking and my family.
Well, I drank Chu-Ai in the middle of March when I didn't know I was going to be transferred.
The mouth opening is sweet and slightly bitter with almost no sourness.
I wondered if I could finish it. But the next day, the sourness started to appear and it became much easier to drink.
At first, I thought, "What the heck..." but then I thought, "Whoa, that's good! I hope to be like that in my new department.
Good luck😅
Hi Maru 😃.
It must be exhausting and physically and mentally draining to change personnel at work and adjust to a new environment 💧I guess a healing family and alcohol are a lifesaver 🥰I'm sure you can become someone like Chuai ❗️ Good luck 🤩.
Hi Maru!
No matter how many times we experience transfers, it always makes us exhausted both mentally and physically 💧.
Thank you for your hard work 🍀.
I'm bummed with your family and the healing power of alcohol 😅.
Chungai - I see you also enjoy the taste changes over the days 😲.
Hi Maru 😃
I was thinking 🤔 it hasn't been up for a while and then the transfer was quite sudden! That was tough 😓.
Maru-san has love for Tochigi 🥰, so I think you are already like a loyal love 🤗 hope you get used to it soon 😌 let's relax!
Hello brother Maru. Thank you for the personnel change. Spring is the season when you tend to get tired easily😣 Please drink sake in moderation so that you don't accumulate fatigue both mentally and physically 😊.
ma-ki-, konnichiwa😊.
Thank you 🙇.
I'm so goofy every day 😫 I wake up in the morning and my body is still stiff😭.
I think the chuai is like a complete body with added acidity. As for me, I would recommend after the second day👍.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😊.
Thank you 🙇.
I'm doing well on the sake, but March is a very busy month for business and April is a tiring month for transfers 😓.
I'll drink Tochigi sake and do my best 💪 of Tochigi love 🥰.
Good evening, Maru🌇It is difficult to adjust to a new environment due to personnel changes. Spring is the season of change. To avoid getting sick from fatigue, be healed by your family and recharge your power with alcohol😊Maybe it's time to recharge your metamorphosis: ⚡️
Nemuchi, good evening 🌃
Thank you very much 🙇.
I have been feeling a bit out of sorts lately, but now I see where you are coming from.
I must not be getting enough kinky charge 🤣.
I'll have to look for some kinky drinks 🤣.
Good evening, Maru 😃.
Sounds like you're going through a lot 😌 transfers always come out of the blue 😅.
With the help of your family and the healing power of alcohol, let's just get through until GW 😊🍶🍶.
Good evening, Maru 🌛.
Thank you for your new job due to the transfer 🙇.
The end of the fiscal year and the beginning of the fiscal year are very busy, please vent well with alcohol 😁.
Good evening, Maru🦉.
It's been 7 years and all of a sudden it's hard 😰I hope you can go to the liquor store for a change of pace 🥹and enjoy your favorite drinks and snacks 🙏✨.
Good morning, Aladdin. ☀️
Thank you 🙇.
I really wish you would stop announcing at the last minute at the end of the fiscal year 😂.
I will do my best while dangling the carrot of GW!
Good morning, Mr. Gyve ☀☀☀☀.
Thank you 🙇.
I'm really busy 😅I struggle with my unfamiliar work every day and when I get home, I take a breather with sake 😂.
Good morning, Pon.
Thank you 🙇.
I haven't been able to go to the liquor store since April 😭
But I think I'll be able to go soon, so I'll go for a change as you said 🚙💨
I still haven't raised the drinks I had over the weekend 😅I'm interrupting this post because a major event came first!
So everyone, April 1st, the beginning of the new year 🌸 or April Fool's Day 🤥, is Jay's birthday 🤗.
It's Tuesday and the party is about to begin! Naturally, Tochigi sake was chosen as the celebratory sake, and Chuaai-san, who hasn't had a drink at home for a long time ‼️ was chosen because its colorful and cute label is perfect for Jay 👶🏻 😆.
I'll make love to you!
The aroma is fruity 😌 The label makes me think it's passionate.
The first sip is delicious 😋It's juicy and sweet, but the bitterness in the second half is pleasant 😙It goes perfectly with the steak and salmon roe rolls we had that day 🤗.
I was a little bit worried because the sake shop's introduction listed the sake level as -2 or -3 😅 but even without the advantage of being a Tochigi sake, it was certified as a good sweetness by international J&N standards 👍.
So it was an instant kill deal and we only had one more beer 🍺 and a cake 🍰😋.
Now that I turned one year older yesterday😁 it will finally be a year of moving from Arakan to Riakan ‼️ I will walk slowly, chewing and drinking!
I want to go around Japan and watch MLB games when I get settled 🥹.
My dreams are growing Tochigi Ai 🥰!
Happy Birthday to Jay ‼️ 🎊Happy Birthday to you 4/1🎊😯It's really true 😆Sweet, mildly bitter sake that would go well with cake, perfect 🥰.
I love that the two of you are going on a sake brewery tour around Japan ‼️ 😍
Dream come true Tochigi love ❤️
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
Happy Birthday🎉!
Celebration sake is still Tochigi love 😍.
Good sweetness and bitterness in the second half - well balanced and delicious 😋.
Enjoy another year with sake 😊.

Happy Birthday, Jay 🎂Happy Birthday 🎉Is this the year you move to Riakan 🤣Go for it! Around Japan 😆 ✈️🇺🇸⚾️ 😆 You have a lot of future ahead of you 😆 ❣️ Let's have fun and enjoy our health first😄♪
This sake has a light, powdery, snowy lees. The aroma is already sweet! When you put it in your mouth, it has a sweetness like the top of amazake (sweet sake). I love this sake. I want to drink it again. ......... The spiciness of the alcohol taste remains on the tongue.
Polishing rice 58
This is dry, and you can drink it in a big gulp. As the acidity level is written, there is a slight sourness to it.
It is not so much dry as crisp and dry.
