Aroma and sweetness like Kojo-zake Little alcohol. The aftertaste is clean, but the aftertaste is long.

Bicchu tasted Kamokata sake. It was refreshing, with a light sweetness flowing through the mouth. The supple flavor gave a sense of refinement, making it a truly delicious sake.

Hi Brubeck 😃 We got ours here a while ago too 😋. Supple flavor 😌Nice description 🥹.

Thanks for your comment Jay & Nobby 😊. I'm embarrassed to be so pretentious 😅 I think the quality of Takebayashi's seasonal sake is always high and amazing.

The series of "never had" drinks is still going on! I was intrigued by the sake shop's pop-up and the cosmic view 🌌 of the appearance, and was curious about this one! Takebayashi-san from Okayama Sake, which I haven't had since my last visit to Kansai. ‼️ Cygnus means Cygnus Cygnus, the swan 🤗. I'll make love to you! The aroma is like a whiff 😌. The first sip is refreshing 😙 and then the fruity aroma comes through to the nose☺️This crisp summer sake was delicious 😋. Now, if you commented on my last post, you may know that I have a report on the chickadees. We found 🪺 on 7/31 and about a week later 🐣x5 birds were born 🥹 from Saturday to Monday. From then on, the parent birds were very busy 💦 always mating and watching from afar as one of them kept watch and fed 🔍. And every morning when the parent birds were not around, I took a video of the piños🐣 and shared it with the family line! Everyone was looking forward to watching the piños grow up 😌. But..! Friday morning, Nobby screamed😱When I went to check, 4 birds were gone and one was dead in the nest😨I think it was probably done by a crow... When I come back from outings, I can see where they were and I think I can hear the cries of the piños 🥺. I started this chickadee diary 📓 on my own. I'm sorry I made everyone who read it sad too😔.

ひなはなママ

Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄. It was indeed a sad story, but please don't apologize to both of us. I think this is what it means to live in nature. I was reminded of the preciousness and importance of life. Let's live it to the fullest ✨

Japanese>English

エース

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🎶. Surprised by the shocking turn of events😱 Sad to see the Cygnus on the bamboo label looks like a bunch of piños flapping their wings in the sky🙏. I wonder if the parent birds have gone away too❓

Japanese>English

さしゅー

Jay & Nobby I had never had Takebayashi. It's a crisp summer drink, isn't it? And I'm really sorry to hear about the chickadees...but I'm sure they would be happy to see you looking forward to each day like this!

Good evening Jay & Nobby 🌛I'm sorry to hear about your chickadee 😭I remember protecting sparrows as a boy 🥲I hope you make it home to Cygnus 😌.

Jay & Nobby, I am so sorry to hear that. A few years ago we had pigeons nesting in our oak tree and they were attacked by crows. I understand that crows have lives, but it was sad to see it happen in our yard.

Jay & Nobby, good evening 😊The series of drinks I've never had...I've never seen them either ✨I look forward to your reviews every time 😄✨.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😆. Another new frontier, great 👏. It's sad to see your daisy's healthy mouth open again 😢. In that case, drink well 😟.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! You've got a steady series that I've never had to drink 😁. I'm so relieved🍀 that your family's looking after the chicks so nicely too. Sorry to hear about the chicks at the end... it's great to see them leave the nest safely 🪺.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃. Cygnus by Takebayashi is a cool label...makes me want to pick it up😍. Tragedy for the henbane family 😭 like the recent bear topic, it's tough to live in nature 😅.

Japanese>English

ヒロ

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃. Sorry to hear about the piños, despite the harshness of the natural world 😢Thanks to the piños for entertaining us for even a few moments 🙏. The labels look like the pyjos flapping their wings: 🕊️

Japanese>English

ぼうすけ

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙 I haven't had Okayama sake in a long time😅. It's so frustrating to have chicks like that in your home because it makes you feel like a parent 😢. But thank you for choosing the J &N family 😌.

Japanese>English

Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃. Thank you 🥹You're right 😌Nature's harshness and the difficulties of living were taught to me by my peyo🐣s at this age🙂. This post has helped me to step over it!

Japanese>English

Good evening, Ace 😃. Yes, I know! I was just planning to write a diary 📓 and upload this photo 🙂... so I couldn't stop my sadness 😢. That! I've heard that Nobby looks like Piyo when he drinks 🥺.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Mr. Sashu 😃! Yes! Cygnus is not seen even in sakewa 🤔 it was a crisp and tasty summer drink 🤗. It was a short but intense exchange, but I got to enjoy the daily growth 😌. Hope you're flying high in heaven😇.

Japanese>English

Good evening Nao888😃. It was really too bad 😭 we are the ones who overreact to the sound of sparrows 🥲. Cygnus has one of the great triangles of summer, so I think it's easy to spot the piño🐣 too 🥹.

Japanese>English

Good evening, AAJI 😃. The next morning I saw a crow on the roof of the house across the street and I was so mad 😡 but you are right, crows are in their breeding season and they have to survive 😔 but... I wish they were fishing for food scraps during this period...

Japanese>English

Good evening, Kano 😃. Thank you very much! We will be continuing with the series of several more bottles that you have never had before 🤗Please look forward to it 👋

Japanese>English

Good evening, N.E. 😃. I'm J&N, full of frontier spirit 🤗 I wasn't sure if I should put up a picture of Piyo🐣 right now 🤔 but I had to because it's life on earth 😌. As for us... we'll just have to open our big mouths and pour our drinks down the drain.

Japanese>English

Good evening, ma-ki-😃. Yes, I've been working on it for a while now! We're making steady progress, but there are still a lot of drinks we don't know about 😅. It's a shame because we all enjoyed the video reports from Nobby every morning 😢. It really is a difficult thing to be on your own 🥺.

Japanese>English

Good evening, ichiro18 😃. Yes! This label is intriguing 😊. I don't want to repeat this tragedy! But I guess that's also the order of nature... and by extension, the order of the universe, that's Cygnus!

Japanese>English

Good evening, Hiro 😃. I can't thank you enough for the piños that have really enriched our hearts 😢. I hope they continue to shine as stars 🥺.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Mr. Bousuke😃. We haven't seen you since our trip to Okayama 😅. They were really cute 😊 and we are thankful they came to our home 🥹I just wish they could have done better until they left the nest!

Japanese>English

こぞう

Jay & Nobby. Hello... I often see bamboo groves but I can't reach them... 😅If it's the refreshing kind, it's drunken to suit this season 👍Hiyodori... sorry to hear that 😞I guess it was a raven... it's hard to leave the nest without a nesting box 😥.

Japanese>English

Hi Kozo 😃 This bamboo grove was not up in "Sake no Wa" but it was refreshingly delicious 😋. I see 🤔 is it safer in the hive... nature is tough 😥.

Japanese>English

ポンちゃん

Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦. I'm saddened to read this twice, but I can't imagine how you must feel if you had observed it firsthand 😢. I now understand why shorebirds nest in the eaves and gutters of houses 😞.

Japanese>English

Hi Pon 😃. Yes...I was looking forward to watching them every day, so I was very shocked😨 for a while 😞. I heard that sometimes the parent birds abandon the nest🪹 if humans touch them, so it's difficult!

Well, I guess I drink too much 💦. March, I tend to drink on weekdays. I've stocked up on alcohol...💦. Well, here is Takebayashi, a souvenir from Okayama. The other day it was a three-crown with a sake degree of ➕. When I requested ➖ sake, the clerk recommended this one, and I immediately decided on a brand I had never heard of. Purchased at Wine and Sake Takeda. It's fruity and sweet 😋 but when you take a quick sip, it's extremely spicy afterwards! Rolling it around in my mouth, it was even spicier! This spiciness was a bit unexpected. I like the contrast 🙆. This sake seems to be shipped after a year's sleep. It is a blissful moment when drinking this sake, which is not available in Shizuoka 😃. The photo is in front of Takamatsu station where I was before entering Okayama.
