Purchased at a local aeon.
The moment you put it close to the glass and try to drink it, the aroma is softly sour like yogurt.
When I drank it, the sourness did not come to the fore, and it was rather mellow and rounded, but I felt it was a little sharp.
It seems that it was not chilled enough, so if it is chilled well, you can enjoy its sharpness and fruity taste.
Postscript
It is sweet and delicious at room temperature.
Special Junmai Kanzakigura
Found at a local supermarket, Naritaya.
The first saké-like taste in the mouth is green and bitter, followed by a gorgeous aroma on the nose. Delicious.
It was a taste that made me feel glad to be from my hometown.
Last week, I spent 4 days from Monday to Thursday completely sober, not even drinking beer 🍺.
Then came the long-awaited Friday! I was sentimental for a while when I saw the boar cups and the Japanese traditional water set on the dining table and said, "We did a great job this week 🥹" 😌.
What was chosen for such a weekend?
My brother was drinking a little while ago 😙I ran into Raswan at a liquor store in Chiba 🤩I felt it was fate and brought him back to Utsunomiya 🤗.
I'm sorry for dragging you into this 😅I can't help but feel a connection with the famous drama Jin 🤔So from the "Let's drink something we've never had before" series, here's Jin Isamu!
Usually it's only for the participants of the brewery festival, but this year it's going to be sold at the distributors as well🤗.
I'm sorry for the long preamble as usual😅
I'll make love to you!
The aroma
I'm going to take a sip! I was told by the shop that it was dry, but I can feel sweetness in the back! I heard from the store that it was dry, but I can feel the sweetness in the back 😋, but it's quite a robust flavor that might make you a little tired 😅.
And now that I've finished it, I realized something 🧐.
We are fast drinkers 😋, but we are not good with alcohol 😩, so even the 16 degree one felt heavy and slowed us down at the end 🥴.
I think 13~14 degree alcohol is just right for me 🤗.
Jay & Nobby Good evening 😊I think it tastes even better when you take a day off from drinking. And I'm tired of drinking when the alcohol content is high... and I can't drink much...
Good evening, Jay & Nobby. Let's celebrate the liver that works hard at drinking and not at abstaining from alcohol. If anyone says anything about alcohol abuse, please contact us so that we can report it internally.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I'm so excited to see this movie 😁.
I watched the last 5 episodes today and cried when I watched it again 😭
I see you're a doshiri type 😲.
I'd love to take you and Fudo out sometime 😊.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby ✨After the rest day, drinking... this must be delicious 😄The reviews seem to indicate that it goes well with pretty strong food ☝️ and I'll be drinking again until the next rest day 😁.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby😃I can't resist buying the limited edition brewery festival sake available 🥰The bottle and the label feel like summer 🍉Maybe when it gets hotter, the higher the alcohol, the harder it feels 😅I also find 14 degrees the best these days👍
Jay & Nobby, good morning 🌞Thanks for the rest day ✨😉 limited alcohol after the day is sinking in 🍶I'm surprised you two are so weak on alcohol 😳I'm very weak 😅.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😊
4 days of rest is amazing 😳I bet the sake you drink after such a long break tastes so good that you faint! ...I think 2 days is my limit 🤣.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦!
4 days in the middle! Your delicious drink is going to taste even better 😊Thanks for your help 🥂.
I only drink a little so it doesn't affect me too much, but I think each degree from 13 degrees makes a lot of difference 🤔.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄
I was wondering about Niiyu, Rui Yoshida used to drink it and said it was delicious ❣️
I was imagining that it was probably dry, but I remember it wasn't more than 1000 yen when I looked it up on the net 😁I'm curious 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😆.
Thank you for your long rest 🫡.
I guess the 16° immediately after the drink must have been too much for your parched body⁉🤣.
I've never had a series of drinks, I'm drunk with expanding knowledge 👌.
Good evening, soumacho 😃.
Weekend nights are the only nights that make my life worth living 😊Everyday we are fighting the line of which one of us should drink first "today?" We are fighting on the edge of the line 😆 for us, anything over 16 degrees is high alcohol 🤤 we both drink 😅.
Good evening, Sashu 😃.
Yes, I do! We basically don't drink during the week 😑 and we let the weekends take care of that 🤗.
We thought we were good drinkers 😅 but it's important to know how much to drink 😊.
Good evening, Nochi-san 😃.
As I get older, I'd like to shift to working on my liver 😌 and enjoying good drinks 😚 in a relaxed manner 😅 in reality, I'm an alcoholic 😤 ‼️
Good evening, ma-ki 😃.
Quintessence! I know the characters are different but I think Niyudo 🤗 and you've seen it 🥹 ‼️ it makes me cry 🥹.
It's not so much a doozy, but it felt kind of heavy in the second half 😅.
Good evening, Kano 😃.
I've been counting down the days until Friday 🤫 and waiting! It's been a while since I've had a drink and it's sinking in 🤗.
I'm back on a weekday and I'm on a break again 😑.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 😃.
I guess you are right! I guess 16 degrees is low Al in the sakewa world 😅 I think Ane-san is average... or by far the top group 😆.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
I was just in a liquor store and our eyes met! It really has a summery appearance 🤗.
We both drink 4 gou of sake a night, so it's not too much 😅14 degrees is good 😋.
Good evening Nao888😃.
We are quite normal in taking a break from drinking on weekdays 😑we are late in raising our weekend drinking, so you may feel like we are always drinking 😊We should take care of each other! We have a motto: "We are not good at drinking 😌" 🤗.
Good evening, Hiro 😃.
Yes, that's right! That's just how I like it 😙I've always had a weakness that I drink it all up too quickly 😅I'll have to figure out how to slow down and enjoy it 🧐.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
I only live for the weekend nights 😊 and enjoy relaxing at the "Ochanowa🍵" during the week 😆.
When I saw the label, I thought "What? Is it this high in alcohol content? Sometimes I get a little bit excited when I see the label 😅 but it's worth it afterwards 🤤.
Good evening, N.E. 😃.
Yes, it's true! I was parched except for the fat 😆 I felt like all my five organs were overflowing 😅I've never had too much of that before!
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good morning...
First of all... it's great that you can have 4 days of rest 🤩I can't keep my body and mind 🤣It's true that lower alcohol content is better for not getting tired of drinking 👍.
Hi Kojo 😃.
A day off from drinking is a great way to exercise your mental strength 🤗.
Maybe it's been too long since I've had alcohol running through my body😅.
After my run home, I bought it at an antenna store in a certain train station. It cost about 1,500 yen for a four-pack. I chilled it in the refrigerator overnight.
The aroma is slightly fruity. It has the mouthfeel of a fine white wine. Muscat-like acidity spreads softly and slowly fades away. The taste is a bit strong. It is recommended to drink it chilled, so I did exactly that and it was delicious.
It would go well with white fish carpaccio, oysters, etc. It is a great cospa.
Postscript
I described it as "like muscat", but it was more like "like lemon (citric acid)". It was a light acidity.
Nabe-ten is a sake brewery in Kanzaki. It is said to be called Nabe-ten because it was in the business of handling iron until it was authorized by the shogunate to brew sake in the Edo period.
I bought a bottle when I visited the brewery in early spring. On the first day of opening the bottle, it was fizzy and strong enough to blow out and had a lychee-like fruitiness, but after a few days, the fizziness went away and a little bitterness came out. This is not a bad thing, but if you want to enjoy the fresh flavor, it is probably best to drink it without opening the bottle too long.
⚫︎Raw material rice: Dewa Sanbai + Miyamanishiki
⚫︎Polishing ratio: 60
⚫︎ Alcohol content: 15
The other day, I bought a bottle from a liquor store...Jungin brewed with Sake Komachi from Akita Prefecture...I love the aroma...and the taste is sweet and delicious...I love it! I like this one....
Good evening, brother 😃.
I thought it was a seafood festival after returning from a trip to Minami-Boso, but it's a western style snack 😋I've never had Niiyu in Chiba 🥲I'll check it out next time I visit a Chiba liquor store!
Jay & Nobby Good evening 😃I have been to Nabaten's brewery and purchased Fudo, but this sake🍶 is new to me. It doesn't have the quirkiness of Fudo and is delicious 😋It might taste better if you open the bottle a little 🤏more than when you open it.
The taste is not boring. It has a fruity flavor. My father-in-law and I drank it all at once. But after a long time, I was able to feel again the quality, the depth, and the pleasure of sake in the scene of sharing sake.
I started to remember my favorite sake, the first brand!
A crisp, clean sake that I like. It tastes better when chilled in the fridge.
The color is light yellowish.
I also discovered that the color doesn't photograph well 🤣.
