Year-end party, bring your own series 4, Hokuriku version. This is delicious. Japan and Hokuriku are very big. ［Sakahomare is an original sake rice developed by Fukui Prefecture. It is very rare to find because of its small production. For this occasion, I went to Fukui to buy it. Sakahomare seems to be used for daiginjo, and many of them are expensive.
If you don't consider the cost, it is really delicious. It has a mild aroma and elegant rice flavor. It is like a good sake, and the second and third cups are always better. In Fukui, there is also rice for rice called "Ichihomare," which is also delicious.

I had the 2nd day off after the New Year, but I worked from the 3rd to the 6th, including the night shift.
I also went home to my family, so I went to a hot spring to work out and had my annual drink at my parents' house 😁.
Snow Kirara ARA-SHIBORI
［The top clear liquid.]
Aroma of mellow rice flavor, fresh and smooth taste, sweetness, and a lingering aftertaste of freshness and alcohol, and finally bitterness on the tongue.
［Nigori]
Aroma of rich rice aroma, mellow sweetness, and a refreshing aftertaste.
The impactful taste is followed by a refreshing aftertaste, just like the people who received this as a gift, just like the "gari" (pickled ginger) in sushi 🤣.
Once you get used to drinking it, the mellow sweetness is irresistible!
So, what shall I do this year🤔?
I have the urge to visit various places in Japan, and I've been encouraged by the people at the Kansai Sake-no-wa Off-line meeting, so I'm thinking vaguely about organizing an Off-line meeting in the Hokuriku block ✨.
If you have any comments or opinions, I would appreciate it if you could let me know 😀.

Hi Gyve, hi there.
Thanks for your work since the 3rd🍀.
Crescent moon viewing sake - beautiful 🌙.
And the local sake looks delicious as always✨.
Looks like it's going to be an increasingly active year for sake 🎵.
Looking forward to your posts 😊.

Happy New Year, Mr. Gyve 🎍🎍.
Thanks to Gyve's help, we were able to enjoy "Yukikirara" last year ❗The crisp flavor goes well with seafood and mountain food for New Year's Day ✨.

Good evening, Jive 😃.
Thanks for your work at the beginning of the year: 🙇♂️
I see what you mean by "gari" in sushi 🧐.
I think it has something in common with the process of drinking sake from the beginning to the aftertaste, and from the appetizer to the end of the meal 🍶.

Good evening, Gyve 😃.
Looks like you have been busy working since the beginning of the year 🥲Thanks for your time 😌Off-line meeting in Hokuriku! Nice 🤗 Actually if we were able to make the Hokuriku trip last year, I was thinking of asking everyone I know to join us! Looking forward to it 😊

I'm in the office almost every day during the New Year's holidays 😁.
I've been drinking sake since I wanted to feel the season in my workplace, which is not seasonal to begin with 🤣.

Happy New Year, Ao-chan 🌄 and I look forward to working with you in the new year ✨.
I've tried a lot of different sake after a year, so I got "Yuki Kirara" for a reset first 😋.
I would like to try other sake from Hatakeyama Sake Brewery.

Hi HinaHanaMama, good evening 🌛.
I just found out the other day about another prefectural sake called "Yukisarara" and I'm thinking of putting it together once 🤣.
It's fun to have a real drinking party with the people I'm interacting with through Sake no Wa 😁.

Good evening, Mr. King of Noodle Wine 🌛.
It's been a tough new year 😅
This "Yuki Kirara" goes well with food and is very easy to drink, but if you're on a roll, the 18% alcohol content will hit you at once 🤣.

Good evening shinsaku3!
I've had a few people drink it, but the impact of someone saying [gari] was so great that it's now a firm fixture 🤣.
It's a dish that gradually builds up expectations towards the main course, isn't it?

Good evening, Jay and Nobby 🌛.
I realized that I have a lot of work after New Year's until the end of the year, so I'll do my best ✨.
I was wondering if you could give me a chance to gather members for an offline meeting, so I thought I'd try it myself.

Hi Pon, good evening 🌛.
Off-line meetings in other areas sound like fun 😁.
I've always wanted to participate and I'd like to gather members in Hokuriku as well, so I'm thinking of preparing for it little by little this year ✨.

Mr. Gyve, good evening 🌃
Thank you for your work since new year 🙇.
I see that the sake is nigori 😍.
The color of the label is also somewhat garish 😁.

Hello bouken!
I know it's an annual thing, but I need some time to rest 😅.
There's quite a few "rough squeezed" cages in there 😁 it's getting even more garish 🤣.
Please contact me and I'll stock it for you ✨

Snow Kirara was a summer gift from a colleague.
I have never had this sake before, but I thought the size, the font on the label, the color, and the total cuteness of the sake 🩷.
It was very easy to drink in this summer heat👍.

Hi Wakata-san, hello here too ☀☀☀.

I personally like the "Ara-Shibori" sake that comes out in winter. ✨️

Gyve, thank you here too 😊My coworker has been driving to Fukui 🚙Winter roughage, I imagine I'll like it too based on the power of this summer drink, so I'll definitely check it out👍.

Junmai from the first brewery
It seems to be a classical junmai sake.
It has the quality of a classic junmai sake.
It has the fullness of rice,
umami and a gentle mouthfeel.
I feel like I'm drinking sake!
It makes me feel happy 😊Sweet
Aftertaste is like Gohyakumangoku
Clear and crisp

I drank it in hiya (sake) and didn't really appreciate the taste. I think it would have tasted better if it was lukewarm.

Sake bartered with Mr. Jive.
I am very grateful for sake that is not available in Kansai!
Thank you 🙏.
The name "Yukikirara" is so nice😍.
Freshness and graininess. Bitterness like sweet summer. Some unique flavors.
The second half of the bottle is quite strong, so it might be good to drink it on the rocks like you wrote 🤔.
I've heard some reviewers describe it as "skinny" in their review of Ara-Shibori, but I think this one might be like skinny too 😳.
I think it's a little easier to drink on the rocks.
I have the impression that it's like a dry version of Ice Breaker because it doesn't get thin even with ice.

Good evening, bouken 🌛.
Thanks for the review ✨
I personally like the Yuki Kirara Ara Shibori so I'll bring it back for the offline meeting 😁.
I'll post more of the sake I got from you and a little Omachi 😊.

Hi Gyve 😃
I'm also interested in your first choice, Rough Bottle 😍Specs seem to lean towards sweet 😁.
I also felt some kind of gari in this sake 🤔.

Opened April 20, 2024
Purchased at the brewery.
Quickly, it has the acidity and freshness of a raw sake ❗️ sweetness with the warmth of gentle grains...
The second half has a fruity bitterness... lychee, hakusaku 🍊...
It's not so thick, so you can drink it neatly, very well-balanced sake 🍶.

Gyve, here are the drinks you gave me 😆.
Thank you so much 🙇.
Cape Echizen and this one I had never seen at all, "Yukikirara" ‼️
I'm so happy to have such nice Fukui sake 😆.
It's very strong and has a very high alcohol content 😆.
It has the freshness of a fresh sake, it's a sake you want to take your time with ✨.

Good evening, Mr. Menshuoh!
Snow Kirara Ara Shibori is a New Year's drink in my family and I was curious to know what people in other parts of the world think of it 😁.
One person described the impact of the taste as "gari" 😋.

Hi Gyve 😃
Oh, it was a New Year's sake at Gyve's house: ‼️
The description of "gari" is kind of nodding to the "gari" 😊Gatchy taste with a refreshing sensation 😉 well expressed ✨.

I went on a trip from Nagoya to Shiga to Fukui to Kanazawa over the February holidays 🚄.
In Fukui Prefecture, I was so HAPPY to have a toast with Jive-san, who I met at Sake-no-Wawa: ✌🏻
It was a very fun night and even more HAPPY that he sent me some sake from Fukui when I got back 😭✨.
Here's what we received first!
I also remember Jive-san drinking it!
First sip, impact like you're eating gari！！！！
(lack of vocabulary & expression)
But I really felt... gari... gari 😝 lol
It's such a good balance of sweetness & sourness & depth!
But it soon calmed down to a refreshing and mellow sweetness.
I love drinking at home because I can taste the impact of opening the bottle!
I have a lot of sake that I haven't been able to summarize due to hard work at the end of the year, so I'd like to keep writing about it. ✍🏻
