My daughter and I are on a guessing game trip (6)
At Aomori Restaurant
Aomori's local sake drinking set ❣️
The last one is Toyobai 🥂.
A little mellower than Tasake.
Light and easy to drink with a gentle acidity 😋.
Very mild!
Goes well with sashimi.
I drank it without eating rice
I had soba over rice at the end 😋.
There was a type of soba called "Tsugaru soba".
I was torn between the two,
I was not sure what to call it, but it is made by mixing soybeans with Kurejiru (soup stock)
The dough is made by mixing soybeans with Kurejiru soup.
so soft that you can't even grab it with chopsticks.
No complaints, please.
and a comment on ❗️
I'm curious about 〰︎ but...
I had the regular kakesoba 🤣.
Sake, sashimi, and soba noodles were all delicious!
It was delicious 😍😋.
The night at Aomori station, there was light rain, strong wind and a little bit of snow.
And a little bit of snow was mixed in. ❄️
It's colder than when I was in Hokkaido 〰︎🥶
20:00 Departure from Aomori station🚌.
(I'm already sleeping on the way back 😴)
Arrived at Ueno station at 6:45 the next morning🚌.
From there I took the 🚃 train to Ibaraki.
I stayed overnight at my children's place and came back 🚙.
I went to see SnowMan with my daughter.
A trip with my daughter 🚙(๑๑🚙◡๑🚙)

Another wonderful memory has been added 🤗✨
Thank you, my daughter 🥰.

Yesterday we sent you the Toyobai Shiboritate, so today we will introduce the Toyobai Heated Sake. Let's get to it!
The aroma is heavy and structured like red wine, and the slightly sweet brewing water is still present, with a prune-like weight, sweetness, and astringency, with a hint of apple acidity. It is not so common to find such a calm and tasty sake yeast. The dry sharpness is also excellent. It was a delicious sake that made me smile. I will buy a bottle and review it in due course! Thank you again for the sake tonight!

The Jyushiyo was very tasty. I will enjoy it over the next few days. Tonight is everyone's favorite, Toyobai! Nama sake is the magic word. I heard that this is the sake that made Toyobai famous. I'm looking forward to it. Let's go!
The fresh, sweet green apple aroma is a relief. The chiri-chiri-ness of the aroma is moderate, and the brewing water is a little too smooth and sweet, as is typical of Toyobai! The sweet apple aroma is elegant, not too strong, and pleasant. The bitterness and the umami of the Hanafukuyuki are superb as it sinks in gradually. The accent of the sharpness of the bitterness is wonderful, and the dryness of the taste is very pleasant to drink. I love Toyobai for its skill in brewing unfiltered, unfiltered, unfiltered sake that has such a calm taste, while at the same time brewing a fully gaseous, unfiltered, unfiltered sake like a straight kumi. I like Toyobai because of its wide variation of flavors. Let's buy and drink more Toyobai and make it more popular. Thanks again for the food tonight!
Good evening, Matsuchiyo-san!
Well, as expected, I can't do it now because I don't have a refrigerator for sake, but I would like to try it eventually!
I also received a bottle of this season's sake, but...I forgot to take a picture... 😞The aroma is not like a junmai sake, and I could feel the fresh fruitiness of the sake. It is still delicious!
Kosuke-san Good evening!
In terms of specs, I wouldn't hesitate to call it junmai ginjo! I'm surprised at the clear difference between the same apple-feeling raw sake and the directly pumped one! It's delicious!
Junmai Shiboritate from Toyohai. It has an apple aroma typical of Toyohaii. It has a strong sweetness and fruitiness. It may be a little too sweet, but the astringent aftertaste gives the impression of good overall balance. If it had been a little more fruity, it might have been more to my liking.
The third cup was "N" from Toyo Cup.
This one is said to be the newest sake of the year here.
It was fresh and fruity like an apple.
It was a very delicious cup.
Compared to "N", it is certainly more umami, rich and mellow, with a strong sweetness and umami, and a good bitterness that is sharp and crisp at the back.
First time at Toyobai.
It has a sweet aroma like apples.
Soft and fluffy mouthfeel.
It also has a hint of sourness, but the gentle sweetness is impressive.
The aftertaste is mild and very easy to drink!
I thought it was a crisp sake, so it was the exact opposite.
I prepared a variety of snacks, but it went best with cheese.
Pairing: Tuna sashimi, sesame mackerel, fried shiitake shrimp with shredded mushrooms, deep-fried tofu, garlic-potato-yaki with Camembert cheese, garlic mushrooms, soaked okra
