Hard...
I feel like I didn't let it sit long enough.
I've opened the bottle and I'll wait until it ages a little.
After 2 weeks, it's a little rounded. ⁉︎
It still feels hard, but I think it's good around here.
Riasake Naturel, which had been stored for almost half a year, has a very nice aroma in the mouth, a firm and deep flavor, and a delicious taste that will make you feel like coming back to life 🥂 Look forward to next year 🍾.
Domaine Ikedalot. It has a strong acidity, perhaps because it is made using the traditional sake yeast, and a hint of white wine-like aroma, which I think is just my imagination, but it is well-balanced with sweetness and umami.
I may have put it down too long after purchasing it; I was trying to time it right because 1500 ml is too much to drink without a few people. The elegant and refreshing impression is common, but the fresh taste is a little dull.
At Gin Kura.
Next is Sogapale!
This is one of the brands that we don't often have a chance to meet.
I found it on the menu and ordered it immediately! 👍
The acidity is so good.
Very tasty!
I wonder where I can buy it 😅

This year, we decided to serve it early instead of letting it sit.
On a hot day, you would not even know it was a white wine.
When I dropped by Ikusakaya in March, there were many other wines, but I am sure those who like them will complete the season.
It was pouring today and the train 🚆 was in disarray, but I think I will make it home😇.
Open the sleeping soga.
The aroma is mildly lactic and pear-like.
Slightly effervescent, direct and delicious mouthfeel, with tobacco-like bitterness from the middle to the end of the bottle.
It is quite strong, so I think it is delicious with soda.
Mixed fermentation of #1 and #2 yeast.
It is stated that after May 1, it may become a very maniacal SAKE, and we will have it after 3 months 🤗.
The woody aroma is softly wafting in the air. It has a sweet aroma that slightly resembles raisins and caramel, a full-bodied flavor, a high acidity sweet and sour, and a soft bitter aftertaste in the second half 😌.
Good evening, Mr. Matsuchiyo 🐥.
To say it was enchanting might be an exaggeration, but I enjoyed the rich taste 😉.
I envy you that you have enough stock to choose one of them 〰︎😏I'm impressed!
Jay & Nobby, good morning ☀️
Let's get in line together to get it in 6 months 🤗As a side note....there was a bottle of Senzuke BLUE13 at Saito Sake Shop!
We were able to welcome someone we don't get to see very often🤣.
No, it's a miracle ‼️
I guess it's a reward for working hard ⁉️
The aroma like white wine the moment you open the cork....
I actually looked back at the label to see if it was actually wine ⁉️.
The owner told me that it has a peculiar taste...peculiar...what ❓️
It's just...
It was delicious ✨
It's been quite a while since I've had a Sogapeur Effice, but today I want to do something about my habit of putting off drinking it even if I have it, when I know it's for long-term storage. I have about 6 or 7 more bottles stored... lol
I checked and it was 3 years ago when I last drank it! I must have neglected it for a long time... I wonder how many more bottles I will be able to open this year.
It was very different from the usual atmosphere immediately after release due to the aging process. It usually had a fresher mouthfeel, with a fruity aroma similar to that of wine-like grapes, and an acidity that was less sweet, but still filled with a sweet and sour atmosphere....
After a year and a half of aging, this wine is not so fresh, but mild and quite mellow on the palate. The most surprising thing was that the aroma was not grapey but banana-like. It had changed to a sake with less acidity and more umami. It has grown into a very different sake, but it is delicious!
Summer vacation, busy 💦.
Today is a rare day off for all 4 kids, so let's grill some meat already 🍖.
I grilled meat while drinking beer and drinking myself 😌.
to drink the rest of Hana Yuu while grilling hormones after the kids finish eating, here is the one I laid down for half a year 😊Sogapale in midsummer ❗️
Aroma, sweetness of rice, acidity, slight chilli and spiciness despite being laid down, goes well with meat 😌.
Luxury~!
Drinking Obuse Winery's sake makes me talk about going to Obuse with my mom before we were married. That's another great thing about Nagano sake 😘.
When the meat is gone, we'll have a dessert instead, Koei Kiku's Gekko Rendezvous, taste flirtatious 👅It's a good time to drink while talking with mom slowly ☺️
Preference ★★★★☆
Sake made by Obuse Winery in Nagano.
It seems to be very rare, as it is made during the short time when the winery is not working.
I was originally a wine drinker before I got into the sake swamp, so I was very interested in sake made by a winery.
The aroma is subdued but promising, with a fresh sweet acidity like that of white grapes.
The taste was complex yet sweet and sour, and both my husband and I found it delicious (and would drink it again), so I think it is a delicious sake, except for those whose tolerance is extremely narrow.
It has broadened my world again.
