I received some leftover sake from the owner of the place I go to 🍶.
This is something you have to go to the brewery to buy 😲.
It is richer and mellower than Dragon Eye, which is also made by Washio!
It tastes amazing! Free! Thank you 🙏!
Regular sake meeting with my boss 🍶.
At a familiar restaurant
Premium sake? I had to drink it 😄.
I guess this sake is named after a place called Hachimantai Dragon Eye 👀👀, located on the border between Iwate and Akita prefectures?
It is dry but has a slight sweetness and a refreshing sourness at the end! It's very easy to drink and I love the taste.
This is the first time I've had Washinoo!
Although the rice polishing ratio is 40%, it is labeled as Junmai Ginjo-shu. Is there a reason why it is not labeled as a daiginjo? The taste has a sense of rice and umami.
This is my favorite Washinoo's gold seal cup. p
Washio, it's a real shame that they don't ship regular sake out of the prefecture. p´ omega p´ omega p´ omega p´ o.
Teasing. p´ omega p´ omega p´ o.
There is no doubt that there are breweries that have good regular sake. p´ omega p´ omega p´ o.
I sincerely hope that regular sake will attract more attention and sales.
It wasn't to the liking of the clerk at the local supermarket, but I gave it a try!
The first impression was a little powdery, sweet and mellow.
Gradually it became smoother and the spiciness became more pronounced.
I enjoyed it with rice balls smothered in sesame oil with Edamame Yuagari Daughter!

Where did I buy it? I don't remember anymore, but here it is anyway 😀.
The aroma reminds me of a mellow flavor 😋, and in the mouth, it has a mild sweetness and sourness 😊The aftertaste is pleasantly astringent, and the flavor quickly fades away 😚👍.
I finished the Chikuma-Nishiki yesterday, and a cup of sake is very useful when you don't have enough to drink 🥳.
Today is the first time this year I'm eating rock oysters so I thought about what to have 🤔I chose this one 🤔I actually went to the sake brewery and took the plunge and bought the limited edition sake only available there 😘Almost all of this brewery's sake🍶 is consumed only in Iwate Prefecture and is not available nationwide😳.
The nose has a hint of ear of rice, acidity, and alcohol. In the mouth, the sweetness and umami of the rice, and the lingering acidity and bitterness spread to the end. A delicious sake that is typical of Japanese sake.
Now let's try it with rock oysters. The unique rocky shore aroma and creamy flavor and umami bring out the perfect balance of sweetness and umami in this sake. A great match 👍😙.

Thank you, Jay & Nobby! Personally, I think that seafood with a little bit of a peculiar taste might be a good match for something that tastes like sake 🍶😄.
Sweetness: 4
Umami: 4
Astringency: 2
Acidity: 2
Bitterness: 3
Fullness, body: 4
Flavor: Apple
Slightly yellow in appearance, with some alcohol and a refreshing green apple-like aroma in the upper tier.
The attack has an apple-like sweetness and flavor, and the bitterness gently envelops it later on, so it can be drunk without becoming sluggish.
It is a memorable sake that was recommended to me by a friend when I was a student and I fell in love with it 🍶.
It is a regular sake, but it has been loved as an everyday sake in Iwate for many years, and you can buy a four-pack for around 900 yen 😄.
Wasinoo is also very particular about the brewery's production 🙄.
I would like to visit the brewery someday!
Good evening! I'm so glad to see you all here 😃.
We are having a heat wave here and there every day, are you all there? 😱
Please be careful when you go out! Even if you are told to, it doesn't mean that your office or school will be closed, some of you are probably screaming for a mandatory lockdown... 😅
Well, it was my wife's birthday last week, so we splurged a bit and had a celebratory party at Tsushima Tsuru at Metropolitan Morioka. 😁😁
The sake this time was from "ganshu" made by members of the Iwate Prefecture Young Sake Brewers Association.
This summer sake was made in collaboration with Kudarein's tanka poems.
First, Washinoo Special Junmai Sake
The tanka poem read was "I love promises made when I am drunk.
Hmmm, it has a certain elegance 😄.
Well, let's take a sip.
Well, it has a strong taste like an eagle's tail.
It is not so strong, but it is very assertive.
It is a good match with the strong flavored Sanriku mambo with vinegared miso sauce! 👍
Good evening, Pon! I'm so glad to hear from you 😄
Thank you for your message!
Kudo Urein's song matches the taste of the sake and makes me pleasantly drunk. 😃
The toji-san and others in Iwate are doing their best! 👍
