The third drink at the standing bar Kagura-san
It has a subtle aroma of aged grapes, with a full-bodied sweetness that sticks to the tongue. The sweetness is somewhat like Omachi, with a hint of acidity and a mild bitterness in the aftertaste.
I felt that it is characterized by its full-bodied sweetness 🤔.
The second drink at standing bar Kagura-san
By the way, Sogape-san is a completely self-serve standing bar with a cork, so you have to pull the cork out yourself 🤣.
The aroma is not that strong, but it smells like matured grapes 🍇. It has a full-bodied sweet and sour taste with a good balance of acidity. I also felt a little bit of gas.
It was the most well-balanced of all the wines we drank this time 😍.
Good morning, ichiro18 😃.
Sogape 😍I'm the first one you want to bring to our house right now ‼️ You might want to check it out drinking outside and then aim to buy it 🤗I can't wait to bring it 🥹.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
Drinking outside is great because you can try different things! It helps me to find out what I like 😃Sogape home drinking is a bit of a hurdle, but I'm rooting for Jay & Nobby to bring you along 😃.
The first drink of standing Kagura
I had a day off today and had nothing to do, so I decided to go out for a drink! I found 5 bottles of sogape on the all-you-can-drink menu at the standing bar Kagura that I visited the other day.
I adjusted the amount because all-you-can-drink is dangerous and I was exhausted last time, but this time I had a good time drinking 🥰.
Muscat? It smells like matured grapes🍇. The hint of aroma is also grape🍇. It has a beautiful mouthfeel, with a clear, gentle sweetness that naturally disappears along with sourness and bitterness.
The aroma is the strongest of the five bottles.
Good evening, ichiro18!
Drinking outside on a day off is a blissful time. ⤴️
I'm sure you'll have a great time drinking outside on your day off!
It looks very beautiful and easy to drink 🤤.
Sogapé is a sake I would like to drink someday 😋.
Good morning, ichiro18 😃.
Awesome! A comparison of 5 different sogape drinks 🫢.
I've never come across one 💦 so I'm jealous 😅I bet it's delicious 🤤I'll definitely put it on my to-drink list 📝.
Hi ma-ki-😃
I drank as much as I could, even though I thought it was dangerous to drink as much as I could 😅Sogape is like a white wine in some parts and it's delicious! I didn't get a chance to drink it very often so I took the opportunity to drink it here ✨.
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
I took the plunge because I don't see many places serving 5 kinds 🥰It's not spicy, but it's drinkable and delicious ✨It's not easy to find, isn't it? I hope you will be able to find it too!
Good evening ichiro18 🌝.
What a luxury 😍 to be able to compare 5 different kinds of Sogapale!
It's delicious and tastes like white wine since it's sake made by a winery 🥺 ☺️
I would love to drink it at home sometime 🥺.
Good evening, Chirsta 😃.
I like to drink it at home! I'd like to take the time to taste and review it... it's hard to find, but Sogape's label on the back states the quality guarantee expiration date, and I'd like to drink it within the expiration date ✨.
Good evening...
When I was there, they had run out of one bottle and there were only 4 bottles. But it's impressive to be able to compare drinks 😄.
Drinking alone makes me tongue-tied 💦.
Good evening Ane 😃
I see you were there on the same day 😳It's a four-pack so it runs out quickly 😅It's great to compare hard-to-find sake 👍I was so tongue-tied last time so I regretted it and compared half a glass this time 😁.
When I looked at the sake menu at a soba izakaya, I saw something unusual, so I ordered it.
Obuse Winery makes this sake in the off-season.
This time it was the No.6 yeast version.
Yummai 😀👌
We were finally able to bring Soga to our home ✨I don't need to explain anymore...but I will in case you're wondering lol.
Obuse Winery, a wine farm in Nagano Prefecture, produces sake for only a few weeks in the winter, so only a very small amount is produced🍶.
Moreover, it is not sold online at all, and can only be sold at special dealers where the quality of the sake is carefully controlled!
By the way, "sogapeur et fis" means "father and son of the Soga family" in French!
Finally, the bottle is opened. It is a winery, after all 🍷It is a cork...
The aroma is mild yet fruity ✨✨.
One sip and it's "mmmm 😆"!
I tasted it with my wife and we were both raving about it ♬♬.
It's very elegant, soft and amazingly smooth, right in the middle of my favorite sweet and savory 😋😋.
I love the mild acidity and the mild flavor and fruitiness 🍏.
I didn't know you could make such quality as this as a hobby...well, thank you so much ✨✨✨.
I'll definitely be purchasing this next time 🍶🍶.
Good evening, Joker!
Mr. Sogape - I am so jealous😍.
You and your wife are a big fan of this dish, it's right in the middle of sweet and savory 🤤.
I have a feeling I would definitely like it too 🤤.
I would love to take you out for a saké someday. I hope you had a good drinking time 🤗.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃Your expectations were sky high before you drank it, but the quality is really amazing that it doesn't let you down✨.
I'm sure you'll love it too 😊I'd love to make love to you!
Good evening, Joker 😃.
Mr. Sogape! I like it 😍Congratulations on your first home drink ㊗️ 🎉We are here, one of the most wanted to welcome you 🥹I think I'll go on an expedition to Nagano!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😊.
You don't have to go all the way to Nagano, Obuse Winery has a list of distributors nationwide on their website, so why don't you go to your nearest store and check?
In honor of Pekho-chan's 100 check-in🎊, here 🥰 in connection with the 100 connection.
Ilya Thornton, meaning "100 years ago" 💖🥂They say that by letting it sit for a while, it changes and becomes more maniacal 🧐.
It's delicious 😋😋This is Sogape ‼️
It's kind of honest and gentle, with a lingering aftertaste. It doesn't have the sweetness, bitterness, or acidity characteristic of sake, and it's not a sharp taste, but it envelops you in a unique deliciousness ✨😍Is it maniacal in that sense?
Today, we have grilled and sashimi of Akinoto fish, and chilled tofu. The fatty and tasty Akinoto fish is very gorgeous and elegant with the presence of ‼️ Thornton 💖It goes well with mild salt and soy sauce 👍It is not a sharp sake, so it goes well with delicately flavored dishes🙆. When paired with gâteau au chocolat for dessert, it changes the atmosphere and has a Western flavor 🥰.
Hope to see you next season, Mr. Thornton 🙏💕.
And I'll try again from 101 check in 😤🙌
Impressions of the alcohol by itself are in charge of shinsaku3💕.
Good evening, Pepo 😀
Congratulations on your 100 check-ins ㊗️🎊🎉
I've been interested in Sogabeer Efis for a while now, but I haven't been able to get to it yet because of the limited sales channels 🤣.
It's a drink I'd like to encounter one day🤣.
Good evening, Mr. Peckho😄!

Please meet Mr. Sogape 💪 ❤️ I also run in first thing in the morning to get it during the new sake season 😤.
Thank you so much Hina Hana Mama💕🙌 for drinking and eating.
I'm doing my best 😆 I've happily made it to 100 with the discovery of dishes that don't go well at all and dishes that go best 😍I'll continue to enjoy drinking 😍I appreciate your support 🙏😘Mama's support 🙏.
Thank you ma-ki-💕😊Thank you 😊Are we too biased in our home? It's a pairing, but we will continue to enjoy drinking it together👍❤️It's still 100 and I'm far from winning the national championship, so I'll try my best to follow the seniors 💪🥰.
Thank you Muro 💕😍Mr. Muro for the spectacular celebration of 600㊗️ 💖💖600 is still far away 💦I guess by the time I reach 600, Mr. Muro will be around 2000 🧐I will try my best to increase my cooking repertoire 💪.
Thank you 💕ichiro18 💕Thank you 🙌You started posting sakekawa around the same time 🙌ichiro18 is already on the 200 mark ✨and already won the national championship ☑️ is cool 👍😎I will follow your back and do the sakekawa 🥰.

🥁Thump thump thump 🥁Sogasong thump thump 🎶We wish we could meet you too 🥹.
Congratulations on reaching 100 check-ins, Pekho 🎉!
You are the first person to reach this milestone due to the time difference between you and shinsaku3 🥰.
I also admired the perfect guy and the perfect flow of "sogape" that he opened to commemorate the occasion: ✨️
Jay & Nobby ✨Good morning 🩷Thank you ❣️ Thanks to you I'm barely at 100 but I'm going to continue to enjoy it 💪I want to keep it light and toon to 200🥁🥰.
Masaaki ✨Good morning 🩷Thank you ❣️Masaaki I admire your refreshing outdoor posts 😍I imagine a different taste & enjoyment than outdoor day drinking🧐 or ⁉️ evening drinking🥰.
Jive ✨Good morning 🩷Thank you ❣️ yes 🥹‼️ there was a time difference but I think I am slowly catching up lol. Lots of daytime drinking women's beauty parties 🤭🤭all we have is daytime drinking terror 💪🥰.
Pekho, belated congratulations on your 100CI🎊㊗️🎉!
Your quintessential choice is so stylish 🥳It goes well with both autumn fish and gâteau chocolat, you are an all-rounder 😆 I look forward to more friendly reviews 🙌✨.
Pekho, belated congratulations on your 100 check-ins 🎉🎊!
I didn't realize you were greeted at Ilya Thornton ✨I'm so proud of you for noticing and purchasing 👍.
I would like to try the gateau chocolat and ‼️ this once 😊.
Today is Pekho's 100th check-in anniversary 🎊, so we have a 100-related sake 🍶 IL Y A 100 ANS
I got it!
According to the description
IL Y A 100 ANS means 100 years ago, and it is a sake brewed with No.1 yeast and 2-agar yeast that existed 100 years ago.
Also, after May 1, it could have a super maniacal aroma and taste 🤔.
Indeed, when I read back my impression when I received it in April this year, I have a different impression from that time!
However, the unique flavor, which reminds me of white wine and is not like sake, is still the same and delicious!
I can't describe it well, but that's the impression I got.
It was served chilled!
Pairing impressions were made by Pekho-san!
Here are my personal impressions
Preference】10(10点満点)

Taste sensation: 5 is the maximum
-Spiciness: 1 at the beginning → 1 in the aftertaste

Congratulations to shinsaku3 and Pekho on reaching 100 check-ins 🎉!
Your choice of sake regarding 100 is very stylish 🥰.
I would have chosen "Hyakujuro" myself 🤣.
Hi Jay & Nobby😃.
Thank you 😊
We were lucky enough to have a bottle left over from one we bought earlier in the summer😅.
Sogape, hope we can have another bottle at home next year too 😉.
