After-party on the 1st day of off-line meeting with Kanto members
Standing bar "Kouri" in the basement of Shimbashi Ekimae Daiichi Bldg.
I have visited there several times when I go on business trips to Tokyo.
I took MAJ and Rigel there.
First, I bought the 3 kinds of items in the picture (they paid for it 😁)
I bought my first Miyoshigiku 🔰.
It's my favorite sake with a strong flavor 🥰.
But I don't remember the fine taste 🤣.
On a side note...
There was a young girl at a standing bar that only had sake, so I talked to her and she was quite a sake lover 😁.
She was a wacko who got hooked on sake with a heated bottle of Shinkame 😳.
I told her about my account at Sake-no-wa because I think we definitely have the same tastes 😁.
Hello tomo🌞.
I learned from the owner of a restaurant I had a drink at in Hakata last year that Kouri-san used to make sake in Fukuoka (I forgot the name of the brewery).
She told me about it, but I still haven't gone out to drink it.
Good evening, Matsuchiyo 😊.
How 😳you have a connection with Kyushu 😁.
This standing bar only serves dry food as snacks, but it's a nice place with a wide variety 🍶.
☀️
Is it an anime character from the Showa era 🤔?
No way, it's an original character ⁉️
I have no idea😅
When they brought the bottle to me, I honestly freaked out because it's a very dark amber color 😅.
And it's a Miyoshikiku...
When I sipped it fearfully, it was sweet and sour like apricot 😚.
The dense sweetness is perfect for a closing drink.
The dense sweetness could be a good substitute for dessert 🍰.
Good morning, Hiro 😃.
Reminds me of the Knight of the Ribbon or the mysterious Melmo 🧐I'm afraid of the 'if you like it, you'll end up liking it' sake 😁.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀.
Ah yes, it was ❗️ Osamu Tezuka... 😅I forget things as I get older... 😅
I don't want to say "if you can't remember, it's the end of the world" 🤣.

Body 2
Acid 2.5
Sweetness 1.5
Umami 1.5
Bitterness 1.5
Aftertaste: sweet and sour
Impression: Fruity with strong acidity
Although it is called "white grape," the aroma is rather Yamada-esque, with a hint of melon rather than grapes.
The taste is sweet and sour with a strong lactic acidity.
The flavor is not that strong and can be summed up in one word: fruity.
Repeat Score 1.5
The aroma is mainly umami with a fruity note. The sweetness is strong, but not too strong, and there is a fruity note in the back as well as the aroma.
Mr. Miyoshikiku was at the Ikebukuro Tobu and I was able to sample a variety of his products.
There was a wide variety of tastes. The fact that they can make such a wide variety of flavors means that their technology is amazing!
A wide variety of labels. This is just the geek in you, right? They seem to have asked a variety of artists to create the labels.
I didn't buy it because I went out for a drink afterwards and it was too much of a hassle to carry it around.
Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO11
ONKYO booth
I was looking around and was offered an otter, but it's 17,000 yen and there's no tasting, so I can't buy it 😂.
They let you compare the one with music and the regular one.
First up was the Miyoshigiku.
I think I made a bad choice, but the Miyoshigiku is so unique I can't tell the difference 🤣.
Both are sour 🤣
Abeno Harukas Kintetsu Main Store Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO11
ONKYO booth for music vibration-aged sake. Sake that has been given musical vibrations uniformly inside the tank at the time of preparation in the mash state is made by wrapping a vibrator that emits musical vibrations around the outside of the tank.
In addition, this booth allows visitors to compare the sake with and without the musical vibrations.
The person who responded was not a brewer, but an employee of ONKYO.
Fat Yamatan Masamune Junmai Matsuyama Mitsui
The impression was of a clear, bitter, dry sake with acidity.
Jazz Brew
The impression is not so different, but it seems to be sharper.
Miyoshikiku Junmai Ginjo Walk on the Wild Side
Fruity and acidic, with grapefruit and pineapple-like flavors.
◯Miyoshigiku Junmai Ginjo Walking on the Wild Side
The fruity flavor has calmed down, and it tastes like grapefruit gum that has been chewed for a long time.
I was allowed to try both kinds, but I still couldn't understand them because of my stupid tongue, and I kept saying "muzu!
I'm trying to fill in the map of undrinkable prefectures 😁I finally found a one-cup Miyoshikiku sake 💡I bought it immediately.
The aroma is so fruity, like apple and muscat 😚 that it's hard to believe it's a one-cup sake.
It is a refreshing and light drink with a pronounced sweetness and sourness 😊 I am satisfied with the taste as expected.
This week, I went on a family trip to Sendai ♨️ and had a solid inbound beef tongue. It's good 😋.
Good evening, Mr. Studying!
You're steadily filling up the map: ⤴️
Your review looks great, even if it's only one cup 😋.
And the trip to Sendai sounds good 🎵.
I also remember the beef tongue I had there in the past 😊.
Good evening, ma-ki-san. ☺️ There are only 3 prefectures left, but Okinawa is difficult 😓 The kids are on spring break, so I whipped my tired body into a trip to make some memories 😅Beef tongue was indeed thick and went well with wasabi 😋.
