Yamagata-Niigata bullet trip!
After getting excited at the sake shop, we went to one of our next destinations, Taiyozakari. I like the sake here and drink it often😄.
The streets nearby have a retro appearance. The nearby streets have a retro appearance. I couldn't visit the sake brewery, but I visited the Wasuikura, where you can see the history and old sake bottles. Since I was the only one there, I was happy to hear about the history of the brewery from a person who is actually involved in the brewing of sake 😄.
After that, I went to a nearby liquor store because the sake I was looking for was only sold at liquor stores. There, we went to a nearby liquor store, which was a heaven for Oyomori and Shimebari Tsuru (aka "Shimebari Tsuru Heaven")! I was so excited.
Here is what I bought! It's the Shikumo no Aki-agari, which is only available in Murakami! I immediately tried it. The aroma is faintly apple. It also has a hint of rice. When you drink it, it is very refreshing and goes in smoothly. It has the umami that is typical of the autumn flavor, but not too much, and it finishes with a slight bitterness. It is easy to drink. It goes well with Murakami's specialty, salmon and sakekasu jerky. It was a sake that I really liked. Next up...
Hi Sashi 😃
Bullet drinking degree early in the morning! I like it 😄.
When I read it, I'm also excited to be a part of it 🥹 ‼️ Traveling spirit is invited 🥹.
Hello Jay & Nobby! It was really a bullet train ride but a great sake trip! We were able to visit our favorite sake brewery and liquor store, which made us realize once again that traveling is really great 😄.
Good evening, Sashiu-san!
What a surprise, Sashiu-san also went on a bullet trip ‼️ and also went to Yamagata and Niigata 😆 different places visited but same prefecture 😚♪ I'm so excited to visit my favorite sake brewery ⬆️⬆️😆🙌Sake trips are the best ❣️
Good evening, Tsubu-chan😊Yes, that's right! I also wanted to go there after seeing Tsubu-chan's bullet trip! And I really only wanted to go for the ramen, but Murakami was unexpectedly close, so I ended up going on a series of trips (lol)!

Sake from the town and village of Salmon in Niigata
I want to go there!
I want to eat salmon!
Mmmm!
Today we are having a Daiyozakari Autumn Aged Sake! We get the umakuchi sake 😊The rice happens to be Gohyakumangoku, so we are full of happiness to be able to compare it with Ona.
The aroma is mild banana and rice. The aroma is mild banana and rice, with a hint of sourness. When you drink it, you can feel the sweetness from the rice moderately, and then the umami comes and the acidity is a little stronger! The aftertaste has a nice sharpness.
The alcohol content is lower than Ona's and the acidity is higher than Ona's. The acidity is more pronounced at room temperature. It has more acidity when it is at room temperature. The umami comes later in a good way.
It has the same lightness and low lingering aftertaste that is typical of Gohyakumangoku. It is also common that the second day is more to my liking. It is also very delicious 😄.
Nothing is left in the mouth after drinking,
It is a mysterious sake.
Is this what they call "light" sake?
But it tastes great when drunk with a sweet or salty snack!
It is the best food sake because it doesn't disturb anything.
This is a sake that you will want to drink in the hot summer months from Taiyozakari. Not only does it have a fruity aroma, but it also has a strong acidity and umami flavor that goes well with meals. I have visited the brewery in Niigata, so when I find it, I immediately buy it. It is delicious!
At the time I drank it with some of the more flamboyant aromas and some of the smoother Tohoku sake, so it seemed mild among the Niigata Tanrei, but it is a sake that will keep you drinking without getting tired of drinking it.
I also got the impression that it was slightly creamy or smooth, as is the case with Hachikaisan's special honjozo, which I had compared to the others.
Souvenir sake from a business trip to Murakami🍶.
The aroma is mellow and fruity, with a slight sourness.
The first impression is a strong, umami spreading taste. Overall, it is dry and rich.
