101 check in ✅Personal recommendation for a brewery 😆Denemon: ❤️ After 2 years? I finally came across it ✨. If the name of the sake rang a bell, you're right 👍It's an amazing sake that has taken the name of a famous book. Denemon is a sake brewery brewed by just one person. The name comes from Michel Carouge's famous book "The Bachelor's Machine," which is cited as the bible of the master brewer. It is also related to Marcel Duchamp's "The Bride Naked by Her Bachelors, Even (a.k.a. The Big Glass)". When I think about the sake rice "Aizan," I can see the image of this sake being brewed with love while loneliness, loss of humanity, and the desire for barren love cross the mind 🧐. Today we are going to start with our special bird ❤️ no doubt👍and our favorite gateau rusk🥰Carouge & Duchamp, so it's like a French 🇫🇷... ❤️ By the way, this "bachelor" is not sweet at all 🤘 it is rather tangy and spicy, and has a sharp taste, leaving a bitterness that is typical of Aizan. But it is not too alcoholic, and is indeed easy to drink 🧐. When paired with the rusk with pomegranate on top, the sweet and savory flavors are gradually felt. The flavor really changes depending on the food.

Good morning, Pheho 😃. Wow! It's a Harada rusk 🤩I love Harada rusks and I love chocolate too💕. I think Harada rusks are the best in the world 😆. Are you a simple rusk person, Pekho?

Japanese>English

Hina Hana Mama 🩷Harada Rusk, I'm glad you can relate 🥰‼️🥰They are the best in the world 🏆. I love the white chocolate one❣️I happened to get a simple rusk this time💝Simple version is unstoppable and dangerous⚠️🤣

ヒロ

Hi Pekho 😃 I had a store drink in Niigata before with a bachelor machine ❣️ and it was so good that I asked for a store that sold it and bought it back 😆. It looks delicious & fun to change the taste when combined with rusks 😋.

Hi Pekho 🐦🐦. After gateau chocolates, Harada's rusks‼️ are expanding their collaboration with sweets 😻It doesn't have to be sweet to go well with them 😳I want to try it 😳. Winter makes me want to eat white chocolate🎶.

Japanese>English

Hiro-san❣️Good evening‼️Niigata, there are some places in the brewery's hometown where you can drink it at the store 😍There are about 2 more types of sake available this year! I hope I can meet you 🩷I feel like the atmosphere is not too Japanese food, which expands the range of pairings 🥰.

Elegant taste, light without clutter, but mouthfeel with a touch of alcohol at the end (15.5°). The fullness is considerable, and on the second day the mouthfeel changes quite fruity, different from when the bottle was opened! (melon and pear❓) The cool taste makes it a delicious sake that you will not get tired of drinking.

Fateful encounter with a guess sake 😊. We had it at the place where we stayed during our training 🍶. The first day of opening the bottle. The appearance is beautiful with a warm, light cloudy appearance. The aroma is soft and fresh, with a hint of sweetness. It is accompanied by a gentle woodiness, an astringency like grape skins, and a fresh sweetness like freshly cut pears. The whey aroma creates softness. The rice aroma is soft, with a hint of white dumplings. The firm sweetness of the rice spreads with a soft acidity. There is no sense of overdoing it at all, and the juiciness is extremely modest. From there, the flow of umami, which gives a good sense of fullness, disappears with a light stimulation that passes through to the nose. The lingering aftertaste is a sense of looseness that lingers on the nose and a beautifully tightened astringent taste on the tongue. The third day after opening the bottle. The aroma has not changed much. On the palate, in addition to the sweetness with a clear rice flavor, there is a refreshing acidity that spreads quickly. The refreshing and stimulating flow from the back of the throat to the nose is pleasantly intoxicating, and the soft umami of the rice with fullness is also very pleasing. The finish is clean, with a moderate lingering aftertaste and a bitter astringency. Oh, it is delicious. ☺️ You can tell that the brewer put a lot of thought into this sake 🍶. I really wish more people would drink this kind of sake.

Good morning, Aladdin! Aladdin's guess sake, your review is really nice and thoughtful✨. I made a note that I would love to drink it if I ever come across it: ✍️

Japanese>English

Hi ma-ki-😃. I hope you will try it 🍶😊. If there is information on the brewery's Instagram, etc., you can enjoy it more in depth! It's a good time when drinkers can easily get information from the brewer's side directly. ☺️

Hi Aladdin 😃 I can't stand to meet your guess sake at your training place 😄. I don't see a label on Denemon, is it the new one? 🤔The review makes it sound delicious with an elegant finish 😋.

Good morning, Aladdin 😃. Denemon! I've never had a bottle 🥲 but if it's Aladdin's recommended sake 🍶, I'd like to try it 😋.

Japanese>English

Good morning, Hiro 😃. My first visit to Yajima Sake Brewery was very intoxicating as I had an unexpected encounter with Denemon, one of the recommended sakes: ☺️ If you don't think about it, it's easy to drink, but if you think about it and explore it, it's a very interesting sake 🍶.

Japanese>English

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃. Echigo Den'emon is a one-operator brewery with a small distribution volume and a limited number of stores that carry it, so it's hard to find it 😌. It's also intoxicating to drink while imagining the brewer's aim and looking for various elements 😊.

I went to Yajima TDL🍶 last weekend after reading Aladdin's review! If I had known I would have bought it 😩. I also have something to look forward to next time: ‼️

Japanese>English

Jay & Nobby, seriously 😳. I'm always just drooling over Yajima's newsletter 🤤, so I envy your environment to be able to go to Yajima TDL 🤩. But I did put in the points app for Yajima Sake Shop 😁 I don't know when I can go next😅.

Last year, I bought a LOW HIGH WHO from here because it was so good 😘. The aroma is mild, sweet and lactic acidic. The mouthfeel is mainly sweet and refreshing, the acidity and richness of Yamahai appear softly in the middle, and the finish and aftertaste are again very beautiful. It is the most recommended brand this year among the newcomers. It is even more refined than last year. Perfect for my chanteuse 🤗. As the label on the back says, drink it while listening to Litogri 👍.

Echigo Den'emon is brewed by the brewery's toji, Kouaoi Kato, alone. The label, the construction, the sake itself, everything is very interesting 🤔. One of my sake recommendations that makes me think that one day I will be able to drink a sake that makes my genes smile 🍶. By the way, vesicapaisis is the overlap of two identical circles when they are formed through their respective centers. In sacred geometry, it is the shape that means "the beginning of everything" 🤔. The appearance is a warm misty white with a hint of ochre. Fine gas bubbles dance in the haze. The aroma is gorgeous with a hint of gentleness. Aromas of pear and melon. It is round and refreshing. Rice aroma like freshly pounded rice cake. The sweetness is modest and present, with a sense of roundness and softness. The acidity that spreads with a soft gasiness has a refreshing and clean koji taste. The middle part of the flow contains a slight bitterness, and the disappearing sharpness is soft, and the lingering astringency is also intoxicating with complexity. I usually like sweet and umami, so although the direction is different, the taste of this wine is very delicious with a sense of solid structure 🥰. A cup that invites me, a lover of sweet and tasty, to a new door of taste: ☺️ I definitely want to try other VESICA PISCIS in the future! Thank you for the food 🍶.

Good morning, Aladdin ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. I'm very interested in this one after reading your review 🥰. ［I'm also curious about the similarity between "Vesica Paicis" and "Taiji" in "I Ching" ✨.

Japanese>English

ヒロ

Good morning, Aladdin 😃. So that's what vesicapaisis means. I'm learning 📚. I don't see the new Denemon so often that I forget it exists after a while 😅I hope there are more of them out there 🤣.

Good evening, Mr. Aladdin. I remember running to the antenna store to buy Den-emon once when they went out of business😅. I'd like to try Den-emon in its new form, but as Hiro said, the distribution volume still seems to be low 🤔.

Japanese>English

Good morning, Gyve 😃. Personally, it's one of the drinks I'd like you all to try once 🍶😄. It is true that Taiji, which governs yin and yang, also has something to do with the primordial light 🤔. I would like to drink this sake while indulging in various thoughts 🍶 ☺️

Japanese>English

Good morning, Hiro 😃. I too learned the concept of sacred geometry thanks to this sake 😄. I'm not sure if it can be helped by the production system, but the stores that carry it are too limited, so I haven't seen any 😥. It's especially tough for me as I'm basically a mail order NG 😥.

Japanese>English

Good morning, bouken😃! I see that you have had Den-emon before! Currently, there are no stores in Kansai that carry it, so I managed to get it this time during my business trip to Tokyo: ☺️

Toyosaka -Toyosaka-. This is the first Toyosaka Echigo Den'emon we have had in a year, and it is made with Ginbukiyo (a cross between Yamadanishiki and Tamakoe). Here are the specs for the soft-water Yamahai Yamahai Tank Shiboribori Nama-nazake. It has a grape-like heady aroma and a fresh, rich, apple-like sweetness with a slight dustiness. The astringency of the aftertaste is still present, although it is a bit more subdued than Den-emon's, and it has a perfect balance of freshness and enjoyment during meals!

Preferences: ★★★★★ Got it during a trip to Niigata. Because of the small production, there are only a few special dealers, and even within Niigata Prefecture, there are only a limited number of stores where you can buy it. I had no choice but to buy it when I heard such a story! It has a rich, thick, honey-like sweetness and a full, rich flavor. It was just right for those who like sweet sake and Omachi. It is so delicious that it is a waste of money, so I will enjoy it carefully and carefully. Although the alcohol content was high, it was so delicious that it was easy to drink.

I was attracted to it because it is made by one person and because of the jacket. Light and fresh ginjo aroma like green melon. The nose is quiet at first, and it quickly spreads on the palate like a white wine. The astringency from the acidity is completed by the alcohol. It is a perfect food wine. It is a perfect food sake, but the flavor is so interesting that you can't help but drink it on its own. The sweetness is also noticeable and interesting as you drink more. Personally, I have the impression that it is like a more refined version of the second half of Abeno, which is also from Niigata.
