It's been a while since I've had a toast with a senior colleague.
I hear you are into sake!
Rumors on the wind are amazing, lol.
So, he reserved this restaurant for us.
Here is the first drink!
This is a brand of sake from Nara Prefecture, but I had never heard of it before.
However, I know Kitamura Sake Brewery.
Oh! Kitamura Shuzo-san from Maegi!"
Yay, I'm so happy!
And the bottle is opened right in front of us.
I'm so excited!
No, no, no, no... Anyway, it was a delicious toast!
This is one of the Oni series.
This is the sake I had decided to drink at Umasshu.
There are three bottles: Mae-oni, Koukaku, and Go-oni.
The Mae-oni is the husband and the Go-oni is the wife.
Ozunu is the childhood name of En no Gyoja, the founder of Shugendo.
Interesting!
It is delicious with just the right amount of sweetness.
He was a kind demon.
I will try the other two next time.
Happy New Year, Pekka Ru, and congratulations on your check-in at ㊗️300 🎉 Good to be a Kiri number with interesting drinks 😋 and best wishes for the new year 👍.
Masaaki Sapporo, Happy New Year!
Sake is really interesting.
I am still watching videos about sake while lying down lol.
I look forward to working with you again this year!
100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture.
The attack is salty and very rich. I shout.
This is amazing, too much richness and umami. Then comes the complex yet gentle acidity of the sake's yeast yeast. It is mellow, but it is sure to lose out when paired with snacks.
Slightly yellowish liquid and long, thin, clear legs.
It is a local sake from Nara and was developed as a cosmetic sake and is a popular product.
Well, it has the feel of an old-fashioned bar sake.
It has a slight bran and acidity,
It has a moderate volume of rice and a yellowish flavor.
It has a retro flavor that would be great with seared dried fish.
It depends on how you drink it.
JR Nara Station Matsuishi
Taste 2.5/5
Hiya-oroshi and autumn grated sake are coming out one after another in the world. I wonder if we should serve homemade autumn grated sake, in other words, freshly squeezed sake stored in the refrigerator.
The first one is this. It has been sleeping in the back of the refrigerator and appeared covered with ice.
When served cold, it tastes of apricot, chocolate, and a little lemon. The taste is rich, along the same lines of Gaijin, Ryujinmaru, or Furozumi. It is not very fruity, but it is good. I think this sake is suitable for aging.
When heated, it has a flavor of apricot and chestnut.
This is delicious. The chestnut flavor is nice. Personally, I love chestnut as a flavor of hot sake. By the way, I felt chestnuts even when it was cooled down. Oh no, I drank too much.
Bought at a liquor store where I go to buy whiskey.
They said it's a little old and it's only 1000 yen.
I don't know if it's because of the freshness, but it's very peculiar 😓.
