I had it with Shinshu specialty horse sashimi and nozawana greens, and found it to be a well-balanced sake, neither too spicy nor too sweet. I thought it was well-balanced and not too spicy or sweet.
This is a Ding no Kura. My father-in-law gave this to me as I am a sake lover. I can't say enough about the smooth and slippery sharpness of the soft-water brewing.
Shinshu Meisho, Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture

On 4/14, before I went home, I received information about this month's dishes and newly-acquired sakes from my familiar "Enya" 😊.
There were about 5 brands I might encounter for the first time, so I stopped by 😅.
The proprietress said that this week she prepared a local Nagano sake... 🫠.
First time tasting Kuroyoh, it was a refreshing, slightly dry and delicious sake 😋.

I was drunk and hungry from all the drinking at the event in Ueda. I had lunch at "Kusabue," a soba restaurant recommended by my mentor. I had tenzaru and kuroyo. When I ordered sake, I had some nozawana (^o^), which made me feel like I was in Nagano. The sourness and umami are emphasized by the apple aroma, and it is easy to drink. It goes well with pickled nozawana. The characteristic of Shinshu buckwheat noodle is... I don't know the difference between buckwheat noodles, but I am sure it is delicious. Sake, soba and nozawana. The peak of happiness!
After that, I stopped by a souvenir shop and found Akakame-ryo on sale, so I bought it immediately (lol). Then we went back to Saku City and had dinner at a sushi restaurant with my mentor from college. He is not much of a drinker, so I refrained from drinking, and we had Saku-no-Hana Junmai-Ginjo sake (I forgot to take a picture of it!). I thought it would go well with sushi, but it was surprisingly perfect. I was able to talk with my mentor about many things, which made me want to do my best again. I was able to go back to my original intention.
After parting with my mentor, I thought I would go to an after-party by myself, but I was unexpectedly drunk and decided to take a rest today. Tomorrow is the last day. Let's have fun!
Good evening, Mr. Sashu 😊.
It's a wonderful time to have a drink with your former teacher from your student days on your trip to Shinshu and to be able to go back to the beginning of your life.
Hi Mr. Hiraccio Hiraccio, (^o^) I am glad that meeting with my mentor was the main purpose of my visit. When I meet with my mentor, I feel like I am back to my school days. It was really a wonderful time!
Hi Sashu 😃
Sake to go with soba noodles and nozawana! I'm jealous because I couldn't do this due to driving 🥹 You had a good trip and fulfilled your purpose to meet with your mentor 🤗.
Jay & Nobby Good evening😄It was really a luxurious moment (^o^) I felt that this kind of thing is called happiness. I am glad that my mentor is doing well and daring.

Wandering Sake
Kuroyoh Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo (Unblended Sake), Shinshu Meijo, Nagano, Japan
Friday night on my way home from the movies
I walked around Ginza, Shinbashi and Hibiya looking for a restaurant where I could use my Go To Eat Tokyo digital meal ticket, but all the restaurants were busy and I couldn't get in... 😵 I entered a restaurant with a desperate wish: "Please give me a glass of sake, even if I can't use my meal ticket anymore...".
It had a gentle flavor that soaked into my tired body after a long day of walking.
I couldn't see it from the counter where I sat, but it was served from the raw sake server.

The movie I saw that day 🎦 was
Twelve Months of Earth Eating
The Demon Over There
@Cine Switch Ginza
It's been a long time since I saw two movies in one day 😀.
The 2nd and 3rd pictures are of the Chinese Hubei lunch and cafe we went to in between movies (no meal ticket for either of them 😅)
Steps: 22072 steps 🚶.
Good evening, Mr. Aaru Sake!
The sake you get after 20,000 steps is very special 🍶.
I can feel the sensation of the alcohol filling my body 😋.
I envy you even though it's a different environment because my hometown is a car society and now with the snow, I chronically walk less 😃.
Good evening, Mr. Aaru-Sake!
I sometimes wander around in search of sake 🍶 lol
I know it's crowded everywhere on weekend nights💦but it looks like you found a nice place to eat 😃The food looks delicious ❣️
Hi Jive 🤗
One drink filled my body and mind and 🚇 gave me the strength to go home😊.
I have started measuring my steps and sleep with the Corona Disaster and on the days I am home all day I am amazed too 👀!!!! I take less steps👣😅.
Hello, mamiko!
Oh mamiko, you are also wandering 🍶! I'm so sorry 😆.
I thought I could make it since I was alone but I was naive 😁.
I recommend "Zaldorf", both the store and the staff were tasteful 🏮 😌.
It has a bitter taste that matches the bitterness of the crab miso and oysters. It may not be an easy sake to drink, but I feel the importance of pairing. Warmed.
When I was out of sake stock, I went to a nearby supermarket and chose this sake, attracted by its mention of "super soft water brewing". Oh, my favorite! It has a refined sweetness and is soft on the palate. I enjoyed it easily. We should look carefully at the supermarket section.
Souvenir. The clerk told me it's neither sweet nor dry, but "umami"! I've never heard that before😇.
As you said, it has a mild taste, and it tastes better on its own than with food!
It was delicious.
The mouthfeel is pleasantly fruity, sour and sweet. Afterward, it has a strange taste that seems to melt into your body like water soaking into it.
It seems to go well with Japanese food with a delicate taste of dashi broth.
