There were two bottles of active sake on sale side by side and I was hesitant to try this one because I had never had it before 🤗.
The gas was not so much that it was gassy, but rather a gentle chili shuwa...a little tropical fruitiness, just the right amount of sweetness, and a slightly crisp aftertaste 😉.
Lunch was cold cappellini at Jollipa!
The noodles were cold and crispy and delicious😍They were too salty, but maybe that was just a fluke and I got really thirsty after a while 😑.
It has been a long time since I saw this wine in a store. This one, brewed with comet, was my companion for this evening. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was of ripe grapes. As you swallow it, you can taste the slight sweetness of fruit.
The hamburger steak at lunch was huge, and while I was not very hungry, this dinner was a little different. A one-pot dish of pork, clams, and bitter melon! It's supposed to help fight the summer heat. I was worried about the bitterness, but when I added sugarcane vinegar, the mild acidity made it tasty without being bitter. In case you are wondering, the soup is made with fish sauce and garlic.
The sake adds sweetness to the soup, making it more refreshing and easier to drink. The bitter taste of the bitter melon seems to be doing a good job. It goes well with the soup.
I didn't have enough, so I added some chicken giblets stewed in the rain that I got as a souvenir. I thought the sweet seasoning would make it more refreshing, but the umami of sake stood out and it was good, too.
Comet is not only for sha-only tasake!
Today's hope.
Nozomi is a special brand for me. Today is not a special day, but somehow.
The rice is 100% Miyamanishiki polished to 60%.
It is said to be the third largest sake produced in Japan after Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku.
Yes, it is delicious.
Not too sweet, with a lingering bitter aftertaste, but that may advance the meal. So I ate and drank, and then ate and drank again.
Nice to meet you 🍶, but I've already had another brand "Sanbana" 😅, but since it's my first time to try Nozomu, I'm going to enjoy it ✨.
I've never seen this type of stopper before but it opens calmly 💨The top aroma is sweet 🤤 Well, it smells like a sour peach 🍑When you put it in your mouth, the fresh sweetness hits you with a bang and stimulates your tongue, the umami expands and the sourness and bitterness finishes off nicely 😋The flavor is clean like Daiginjo but with a satisfying sweet-ami taste 🥰. The taste is beautiful like a daiginjo but satisfyingly sweet and delicious 🥰I think the reason for the stimulation is a faint gas 🤔It has a flashy impression but can also be used during a meal 🍶I just met another delicious one, Tochigi Ai 💕.
Good evening, Nao888!
You've been steadily exploring new places tonight, haven't you 🎵.
I had a splash of Nozomu-san a long time ago and it seemed a little dry 😋.
This one is sweet and tasty with a different taste 🤤.
Good morning, Nao888 😃.
I see you went to Nozomu and Tochigi Ai ❤️! I drank Nozomu a long time ago, but I thought it wasn't my favorite... I haven't been able to touch it since then😅But if you enjoyed it this time Nao888...
Hi Nao888 🐦.
Congratulations on your first wish 🎉I've only had it outside, but it was so good I'd love to have it at home...and you drank from a good one 😁.
Hi Nao888😃
I see you are a connoisseur of the site! And congratulations to Hatsumo-san for ㊗️ 🎉!
I'm sure you'll enjoy Hitogokochi's active nigori from Tochigi 😋 Please give it a try 👋.
Good morning, ma-ki-🌞It's always exciting to explore new places. ✨️ This one is a little spicy but beautifully sweet and delicious 🍶I'd love to try others too 😉.
Good morning, HinaHanaMama 🌞I actually held off on buying it because you posted that it might be a pain 😅 but this one is a little spicy but it was delicious 🥰Please try again at some point 😉.
Good morning, Pon-chan 🌞Thanks for the first wish 🙇If it tastes good outside, I think I'll take my time at home 🤤The latest arrival POP at the liquor store made me pick it up from the good ones: ✨️
Jay & Nobby, good morning 🌞 thank you 🙇 Mr. Brilliant just happened to be attracted to the rabbit label, and I'm not yet ready to call myself a connoisseur 😅I just love to see the specs of the ones you recommend 🤤.
Smoked wine. Green apple? Pear? The fruitiness of green apple or pear is amazing! Sweet, fresh and gassy at the end. I would like to compare it with other sake!
Do you know the nursery rhyme "The Seven Children"? The one that goes, "Why do crows caw?
When I was a child, I didn't understand the fun of this song. When I was a child, I didn't understand the fun of this song, but only recently have I come to understand it.
But I finally understood it recently. I would like you to try to understand the original lyrics of this song. Except for the fact that there is a nest in the mountain, in other words, 90% of the lyrics are false.
Now, today's sake.
It's a cast bottle, but I didn't even say "pus" when I opened it. Is it false that it's a splash? I drank it, but there was no gassy feeling. I don't know what it tastes like. It tastes bitter, but I may still have the aftereffects of the corona I had the other day.
