I went to an eel skewer restaurant the other day. They have a number of local sake on tap, including Tobiroki Special Junmai, and one of my favorites is this one. It is a very good sake with an ideal balance of sweetness and spiciness, yet the aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing. It is a perfect match for eel. It was the best, except for the bill...(・・ω・・・)Taka cutter!
Purchased from a free Bunraku tasting at a liquor store. It was the cheapest one, but the aroma was citrusy and gassy, and the taste had a good acidity and sweetness, making it a good quality sake. After this, the two of them left for further sake adventure.
Hi Ars, good evening 🌆I like the idea of meeting people at tastings! I don't have many tasting events in Ibaraki prefecture, maybe because all the liquor stores are far from the station 🤣.
Jay & Nobby, thanks for the tip, lol.
I thought it would be dangerous to open another bottle on the way back from the bike ride (lol), so I'll definitely have an adventure next time!
I bought this sake recommended by the owner of a liquor store: ❤️
I opened the bottle with a feeling of half anticipation and half anxiety 🎉.
The aroma is exactly like green apple😍.
In the mouth, it tastes sweet and acidic with a slight gasiness and a green apple aftertaste ❤️
I quite like the taste of this one 😊.
This one has 16% alcohol by volume, but the refreshing taste makes me want to gobble it up 💦.
This is, to put it mildly, a must repeat 😁.
Dear Jay & Nobby
Hello 😃
I love your tastings 😍.
I'm so jealous!
Yesterday, I was slightly hungover because I drank too much due to the ease of drinking.
Please go to ⚠️ and have fun 😊.
I was going to end the day with a glass of Kaze no Mori, but it was too easy to drink, on the contrary, it was not enough 😆.
It was not a lured water, but a lured drink 😏.
So, I had some Bunraku which was given to me by a friend of mine.
It's been a while since I've had Bunraku-san, but the sweetness and flavor at the moment of drinking is violent, not unlike the label 😁.
I couldn't help but say "sweet", perhaps because the comparison I just drank was with Kaze no Mori.
It is voluptuous and drinkable, and the aftertaste is not that strong, so there is a good sense of having drunk it.
I had an image of it being more relaxed, but I felt a nice gap 😚.
Leave it to the manager for the next drink comparison today!
We were seated at the counter farthest from the cold storage.
This time, we had a few more nigoros and sake!
BunrakuReborn Raindrop was served here at Fukurokuju in 2022!
The sweet and sour taste is exceptional!
From the menu on the blackboard, a snow crab salad!
This is my first time to try this, but it goes very well with sake 🍶🦀!
The preparations for the next day's event are now complete, so tonight is the eve of the festival for one....

I ordered this sake because it is also a sake that is not often seen in the Kansai region. At first, you could feel the alcohol taste, but gradually you could taste the umami flavor. It also went well with Japanese food.
