We found another Banshu Aizan!
It was purchased on the same day.
It's been three years since I last had a drink at the Tsuruoka Saizuru Bar!
Kudokibe is always well-polished!
The sweetness is the key to this one!
The young proprietor finished it off with some kishimen noodles!
Thank you very much 😊
Lunch at Nagomi in front of Toya station where we finally got in!
A great combination 🉐!
We were surrounded by delicious food that day!

I learned of its existence through the newsletter and saw it at the entrance of Hasegawa Sake Shop...I picked it up and bought it without a second thought.
When I opened the sealed bottle and held it close to my nose, the aroma made me want to drink it as soon as possible.
Pouring it into a glass and taking a sip, it was a pleasant drink that seemed to seep into your body without any cloying taste.
It is slightly sweet with a refreshing aftertaste. It is a very well-balanced bottle.
I am wondering in real time if I should have another glass.
It's a good day to have found a delicious sake.
Obtained on the way back from a recent trip to Tochigi.
It is a rare sake rice + sake store original. My luggage was full of Tochigi souvenirs, but I couldn't resist picking it up.
When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was clear and gentle, like melon, pear, and white peach.
The palate is clear and clean. It melts and seeps through the mouth. It has a purity as if it were breathing mountain air. In the middle of it, there is a soft and coherent sweet, sour, and astringent flavor like melon and pear, and a sense of rice. It has a refined taste that disappears like a haze, and you find yourself emptying your sake cup!
It has a high level of clarity and pleasant umami that reminds me of the "Sora" of "Houraisen" that I had before ✨.
Kudo quality!
Thank you for this precious encounter 😋.
Good evening, stst 😃.
That is a very unusual rice. I've never seen the red label either 😅.
The review makes it sound like a classy sake 🧐I'd like to try this one 😆.
Oh, yummy!
Sweet at the entrance, with a light acidity accent, a little sweetness in the mid-palate, and then again sweet and full of umami in the back palate, such a rich taste!
The goodness of Yamada-Nishiki is brought out to the fullest!

The aroma is very gorgeous and fruity.
On the nose, you can feel juicy sweetness, but there is a slightly strong sake taste in the aftertaste. ✴️
A mysterious sake with a variety of tastes 🎶.
Your liking:★★★★★★★★☆☆☆☆
Attracted by the fancy label.
It's a Junmai Daiginjo and so polished.
It's also cosmetically pleasing.
Of course it was delicious!
Compared to the Haneya we drank the day before
I drank it slowly over a few days
I drank it slowly.
