The last sake was 100% Yamada-Nishiki, following Omachi and Aizan.
The glass had a subtle aroma of ginjo.
The first thing that hits the palate is sweetness....
The sweetness is quickly swallowed up by the sea of umami.
The spiciness rises to the surface and envelops the umami.
The spiciness is soft and beautiful.
The clear liquid in the glass is swallowed up in one gulp,
The good aroma of daiginjyo wafts through the nostrils.
The lingering aftertaste is pleasant, and you will never get tired of drinking it.
It is a very tasty sake without any unpleasant taste ^ ^ ^.
Thank you for the delicious sake^ ^ ^.
Next is this sake made with Aiyama.
The rice used in the previous sake was Omachi, which was replaced by Aiyama.
The overall impression after finishing the bottle was a sweet sake.
Therefore, it is better for after a meal than during a meal.
In the glass, there is a slight sweet aroma.
The spiciness is quickly followed by a sweetness that fills the mouth,
After a while, the sweetness fades away.
Finally, the spiciness rises to the surface and is cut off.
The clear liquid in the glass is drunk in large gulps,
like a whiskey on the rocks.
It is like drinking whiskey on the rocks, and the hot feeling rises up from the bottom of your chest,
This is good ^^^ Thank you very much for the food!
This is the second bottle I purchased at the Kyoto Takashimaya Sake Festival.
It has an elegant aroma, a soft taste, and a beautiful finish. It goes well with Japanese dishes such as bacon wrapped in cheese, ginkgo fish with fried gingko mushrooms, simmered sardines, and more!
This brewery offers 550 yen for shipping in the Kansai area, so I might consider mail order...
Hi Pon-chan 😃I tried the Aoi Tenka tasting, I also tried the draft but I thought the hi-yere version was better suited for me.
The flavor is so gentle that I have to restrain myself or I will drink too much 😊.
The one I went to a liquor store I don't usually go to after a baseball game and drank after I got home.
It tastes like Aizan, but is closer to a classic. It is spicy with a little sweetness. It tastes hotter than when I tasted it.
It is spicy even if the temperature is changed. I think it is hard to drink by itself.
When it gets close to room temperature, the sweetness comes out, but the spiciness and alcohol taste also become stronger.
Good evening, Nemuchi 😃.
I was in Hanshin and tasted the "Kessen Sekigahara" and "Soujiki" before I went to the restaurant 😅.
The exchange game is no good 😇
Kyoto Takashimaya Sake Festival Part 3
A small sake brewery in the west of Shizuoka.
All tastings were from the vat!
Aoi Tenka!
Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu, Yamadanishiki 55%, 18%.
Gorgeous taste and a pleasant drinking experience that is hard to believe it's 18%!
Recommended as the first choice!
Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-Ginjo Omachi 55% 18% 18oz
Delicious with soft acidity and umami flavor.
Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-genshu Aizan 55% 18%.
Delicious and easy to drink with soft sweetness
Omachi was my favorite ❣️
The overall taste is more classic and delicious, so I wanted to drink it while eating 😊.
Good evening, Manta!
I was so glad to see you here, as it's too far for me to come to Kyoto even if I could come to Osaka!
I guess Matsujun's popularity is amazing 😳‼️ I'd love to see it 😍
Tasting at Hankyu Department Store on 6/3.
Three breweries were tasted on this day at Hankyu Hanshin.
Aoi Tenshita, a first-time visitor, said it was the first time for him to come to Hankyu.
Aizan Unfiltered Nama Sake
Omachi Unfiltered Nama
Yamadanishiki Unfiltered Nama Sake
Junmai Ginjo 55% Aizan
We tasted these four types of sake.
There was also Honorifuji in the draft but for some reason they didn't let us try it😅.
All of the sake were very mild and tasted like Shizuoka sake to go along with a meal.
The Junmai Ginjo 55% Aizan was sweet, but I didn't like the taste, so I didn't try it.
After some hesitation, I bought the Aizan Unfiltered Nama Nama Sake.
I heard that this sake was well received at the Japanese Sake Festival because of its cost performance of just under 1000 yen.
The toji-san was also there, but he said he had to stay overnight in his car on the bullet train because of heavy rain😱Thanks for your hard work....
The price was 1980 yen at the store, but it's about 2300 yen at the official website. I wonder if they write the price including cool fee and box fee?
Mr. Bouken.
Good morning♪
I bought this wine at a special booth at Yokohama Takashimaya last year. I tasted several kinds of wine and I remember it had a classical taste like a food wine 😁.

It has a clean and crisp finish.
#Nihon-shu
At the basement sales floor of Hankyu Department Store
We tasted Aoi Tenshita by Enshu Yamanaka Sake Brewery, which was exhibiting at the store for the first time, with these three bottles and three different types of sake rice only,
The rest of the sake is said to be under the same conditions.
The only difference between the three is the rice used for the sake, but the rest is the same.
I'm still curious about the brewing water here,
The brewing water here is soft, which makes it harder for the characteristics of Omachi rice to show, and it seems to be very popular ^ ^.
Which to buy, Aizan, Yamadanishiki, or Omachi...
Then my wife gave me a gift for Father's Day 🎁😳 Thanks 😊 I'll take it with care 😋.
So much for the preamble, let's enjoy it right away!
In the glass, there is a nice aroma like amazake with just a hint of rice and a little alcohol mixed in.
When you put it in your mouth, the umami is immediately followed by a thin veil of spiciness, which quickly appears, and then the spiciness gradually increases. The spiciness has no corners and is easy to drink.
The spiciness is not harsh and is easy to drink, and when the sake is finished, it has a clean and clear image.
The lingering aroma from the nostrils is subtle,
The lingering aroma from the nostrils is just a hint of the aroma in the glass,
It seems to be a good sake for a meal 😄Thank you very much!
Hi Papagon, ☀️
All 3 bottles are Father's Day presents 🎁! You have a kind wife... ❣️ I'd like to drink them since you're coming to Takashimaya in Kyoto... I can't afford these specs though... 😅
Good evening, Ponchan... Nice to meet you😄.
Thank you for your comment 😊
I was wearing the necklace 🎁 that I gave you the other day when we went out 😅.
Maybe she was in a good mood😅.
I'm sure Pon-chan would have fun at the Kansai Off-line Meeting.

This time, it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake.
They recommended the Honorifuji and Yamadanishiki, and told me to drink them in order after all 😁Tasted them all
I knew I preferred Aizan, which has the same gentle sweetness as last time.
The Omachi was also delicious with a robust flavor 😋.
I bought it at my usual Marunaka Ohashi Shoten (🍶) and asked the landlady to make a dry selection for me 🍶.
720ml 📌 ¥1,650
It's the second day of the party with my mother-in-law💕.
Here's a quick rice 💕
The aroma is fruity💕
Color is light golden💕
The mouthfeel is a little thick💕
It's dry but you can feel the sweetness💕You can also feel the umami of the rice💕It goes in smoothly💕May be a dangerous sake😅.
Today's pairing is grilled tuna kama-yaki, sushi roll, tekkimaki and sashimi💕
They go so, so, so, so well💕!
Drinking sake with my granddaughter is the best 💕💕💕My mother-in-law is also happy and it's really a great party👍👍👍👍
I recommend this sake 😁 please try it 👍It's a great sake for a meal 👍✌️
Good evening, Makoji-san ^ ^.
You drank Shizuoka sake and you seem to have more 💕 than usual 😁.
I've never had Aoi Tenshita myself 💦.
Aoi Tenshita is out of the ranking and I have never had it myself 💦.
I'll buy some when I see it ✌️

I have chosen a liquor store in Inatori that I don't think I have seen very often.
It's clean and refreshing, but has a modest taste except for a gentle acidity. It's not fruity, but more like a herbal tea in the back.
The aftertaste is also light, including the lingering aftertaste, although there is a sense of flavor spreading for a moment.
It is a strange sake that leaves the impression of not leaving any lasting impression, although you can taste some flavor when you drink it.
