New Year's party with my parents today
We were supposed to have a year-end party, but I caught the flu, so it was switched to a New Year's party.
My father has been on a strict diet since last year, but today was his customary rude party, so he drank a lot of beer, shochu, and whisky at the second bar, and was very drunk at the end.
My mother talked and drank a lot and enjoyed herself very much.
The party lasted over 6 hours!
The only drink we had at the New Year's party was this one, which we had at the first restaurant!
It's been a while since I've had this sake!
Yamamoto Honke's Junmai Daiginjo
Let's have it right away!
First, the aroma. It has a sweet, fruity aroma.
In the mouth, there is a fruity sweetness and a slight bitterness.
Since the sweetness comes first, the bitterness does not leave much of an impression.
It has been a long time since I have tasted this, but the sweetness is bliss!
I didn't take notes, so this is a review from memory, but it was a delicious fruity-sweet sake!
After that, my father and I had shochu, and the second time we had whisky, and it was an enjoyable drinking time!
After returning home, I took a bath and felt refreshed. I'm going to drink sake at home now because I didn't drink enough!
Good morning ma-ki-, I could see how you all enjoyed the New Year's party with your parents 🥰I remember Kyoto's sacredness being delicious too 😆 I'm sure it will be a great start to the New Year with a smile on your face ✨.
Hi ma-ki, I'm glad you had a good day at the New Year's party with your parents: ☀️
I'm glad you had a good day at the New Year's party with your parents. ☺️ I haven't had this one yet even though I'm in Kyoto, but I'll look for it - I hope you have the flu too, ma-ki - take care of yourself!
Hi ma-ki-!
Sounds like both your parents had a great time 😁.
I think your father must have been very happy to welcome the New Year ✨.
But I see you drink rather high alcohol content 😲.
Hi ma-ki-😃
It was a wonderful New Year's party with your parents 😊The stories of your people were the psicest entree and I hope you all had fun and good drinks 🤗.
Enjoy the rest of the party as you couldn't drink 😋.
Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama.
It was a time of great joy for me to see my parents smiling happily ✨.
I see you have had a sacred drink 🎵.
It was a really good drink and very satisfying 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Ofuji.
And thank you for your kindness🍀.
It was really a fun time and it was over 6 hours in no time 🎵
This is a sweet sake, but if you are interested, please give it a try 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Jive.
My parents laughed a lot, talked a lot, drank a lot, and seemed to have a lot of fun ✨.
That's right. My parents like to drink on the rocks, so this is what we do when we drink together 😊.
Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments.
Yes, it's always good to hear the old stories of the two of you and talk about ah-ha 😁✨.
Yesterday we got a little deep in the bottle, but it was a fun drinking time 😊.
Hi ma-ki-, ☀Hello ☀Long New Year's party with your parents sounds lovely ✨️ I don't often reach for Kyoto sake, but I'll take note of Kamizo and Sacred 🍶 shochu and even whisky 😳.
Thank you Nao888 for your comment.
It turned out to be a very quick long meeting, but we had a great time 🎵.
I was a little deep drinking yesterday😅.
Kamizo, if you have a sacred opportunity, please try it 😊.
Hi ma-ki, 😃I'm so happy to see your post about the New Year party with your parents 😊Thanks for the food 😆I'm sure you had a lot to talk about in over 6 hours... I have to be filial to my parents too... 😅
Thank you Manta for your comments.
It was another fun night 🎵.
My father was looking forward to it even though he was concerned about the restrictions and drank a lot 😁.
It's been a long time since I've had a sacred meal, but it was sweet and delicious 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Shin-kun.
I'm glad you were able to be so relieved 🎵.
Yes, it was! It was like I just realized it was over 6 hours in the blink of an eye 😁.
I look forward to your roundtable post with the parents 😊.
Mr. ma-ki-.
Good evening...
It's fun and happy that your parents are doing well and you can drink together 😍Drinking at home after 6 hours of drinking and not drinking enough... you are a drunkard 🤣.
Thank you, Koizo, for your help here as well.
As you said, I feel so lucky to have my parents here ✨.
I'm usually weak, but on this day I only had one glass of sake, so maybe that's why I felt like drinking it at home 😁.
Alcohol content 14-15
Rice polishing ratio 60
A cup every once in a while, this time a cup left behind by my father. I used to buy it when I saw it at the Shinkansen kiosk. The aroma is sweet with a hint of zing. The mouthfeel is that of Fushimi's female sake. The water is crystal clear and the taste is sweet and almost ripe. It tastes sweet, like a ripe fruit, like a prune. The sharpness is a little weak. However, I think it is enough for a cup of sake. Thank you again for the sake tonight.
Opened January 9, 2025
a gift from a friend
I knew it, Junmai Daiginjo🍶.
Mellow, mellow, full-bodied✨
I don't need any more snacks ❗️
I can just savor this all the time ^ ^.
I like to drink it to treat myself when I achieved something 🍷.
Hi Kazuki 🐦.
That looks so delicious 😻I have not been drinking Kyoto's sake because I can drink it anytime 💦I have to remind myself to drink good sake properly 😅.
Thanks for your comments, Pon-chan 😊.
I didn't buy any when I went to Kyoto either, so I asked someone else to buy some for me this time 😅.
But there are so many attractive sake all over the country, it's hard to choose the right one.
Continuation of the review meeting at a pub near Yokohama Station
I think there were more than 20 different kinds of sake on the menu, but most of them were major ones, and there was only one more sake that I had never had before
On the menu, it says "for warming sake".
Sacred
The seat we sat on was a little cold, so I ordered some yuba and yudofu or something (not pictured) and some heated sake!
It's like the heated sake (my own image) 🍶.
This is also good for the coming season 🥰.
Poured from a refrigerated tank. It is hearty!
Medium-bodied, light, no alcohol, but apparently high in alcohol content. I think I drank at least 5 glasses. I was so drunk...

Sake Tasting Set
1) Junmai Daiginjo "Matsu no Midori
Light, aromatic and sharp.
Goes well with yakitori.
2) Honjozo "Tessai
It is said to have a taste that pursues sharpness and richness.
It is a little astringent. I don't know yet.
Seems to go well with sake lees soup.
3) Daiginjo "Sacred
Seems to have a mild taste and daiginjo aroma.
It goes well with Kyoto pickles.
710 yen is a bargain after tasting all this!
Rich and slightly dry
Torisei's Sake for Yakitori
It soaks into all five organs from 11:00 a.m.
It comes to the lower half of the body from the first cup.
