Social gathering after the year-end night watch, Part 1
I was entrusted with the task of selecting sake, so I chose sake that would be enjoyed within my budget.
Of course, I bought soda water and drank it as a soda.
I could drink it in large quantities.
One of the guests seemed to be hooked and drank it all the time.
Purchased at a liquor store.
Rare because it is not often seen even in Kansai.
At room temperature.
It was supposed to be thick and rich, but in fact it tasted creamy and easy to drink.
It is classified as super dry with a sake degree of 14 degrees, but I personally don't find it to be that dry.
However, it has a very good balance of sharpness and gentle aftertaste after swallowing. It is even better when heated.
Recommended for intermediate level sake drinkers.
Just finished a Sanuki Kuraudei.
I saw the brother next to me and ordered the same muddy one again😅.
Nara Soriryu's well-known kamishioke dobu!
It's also nigori, but dry and not sweet at all!
The exact opposite of what I had just had 😆.
I drank it with ice and soda.
Merged with ice and soda, it's delicious!
It's so refreshing and refreshing, it's perfect for summer.
The guy next to me said he recommends drinking it with beer.
Dobu Beer💦.
I've never heard of it before!
Sounds delicious 😮!
This time I also had a rare beer from Okayama and Kagawa that I've been wanting to try for a long time!
Koti brewery Naked Ale from deep in the mountains of Okayama Bizen City!
This beer is fermented with natural yeast from the air, fermented in the bottle, and aged in the bottle.

Great beers!
Try them if you see them!
I was afraid of spilling the nigori sake, but I thought, "Oh yeah, I'll just drink it at the restaurant," so I ordered it. I was very drunk, but I liked it very much.
When I ordered Neapolitan to finish off the meal, I thought the waiter laughed a little, but it tasted great and went well with the sake.

I came to Kumamoto on a business trip and was interested in this sake, so I happened to see it at a liquor store I went into, and bought it.
Sake at noon gives me a sense of immorality.
It is dry but very smooth on the palate. It is creamy and has a fresh acidity that is typical of a sake brewer's yeast yeast. The powerful spiciness coming from the back of it can be felt along with the umami. The sharpness is also excellent, and the full-bodied flavor is refreshing.
I compared Sawa Masamune and Dobu, both warmed to lukewarm. The flavors are similar, but the Dobu has a more straightforward sweetness. The Sawa Masamune is a bit more expansive. Either way, the lukewarm sake is very easy to drink.
