I decided to finish my drinking this year with this one. This is one of my favorite Akabu. Yui no Aroma.
It is aromatic, easy to drink and delicious! Perfect with simmered yellowtail.
We enjoyed it this year, too.
Happy New Year to everyone.
Another NEWBORN Junmai Ginjo to look forward to...
I will open it while I can compare it with the Junmai I opened the other day!
When I twisted the cork, I heard a light "psshhhh" sound. It was just like a "new born"👍.
The aroma is mellow and sweet, like banana and melon, which I have felt in previous years, but this year's aroma is a little more mellow. The flamboyance is a bit subdued?
In the mouth, the first sensation is a pleasant, slightly carbonic acidic stimulation. The freshness unique to nama-shu is in full bloom. ‼️
Somehow it seems to be less sweet and more dry than in previous years. Last year it was like a fruit juice, but with a refined sweetness and flavor.
This year, a bit of bitterness peeks out and seems to be a nice accent 😲.
Last year's Junmai-Ginjo is closer to this year's Junmai, and this year's Junmai-Ginjo is less sweet and has more umami and sharpness.
Is it Junmai this year?
It's that time of year again!
AKABU's Junmai-shu NEWBORN is now on tap 🎉!
When you hear the sound of gas escaping, you know it's finally the end of the year. The clear fruity aroma, reminiscent of green apples and pears, rises softly ✨.
Sipping the first cup of sipping is a small luxury that only this time of year can offer 😊.
In the mouth, the clear flavor slides over the tongue as expected.
It has a good balance of sweet and sour, and you can really gobble it up 🥂! However, compared to last year's model, the layers of flavor seem smarter. Instead of the dawning presence of the previous model, it has a more pronounced sharpness and seems to have been refined to be lighter and less tiring to drink. ‼️
AKABU's Junmai sake is a good balance of taste and price,
But this year's Junmai has a more refined image with a touch of class 😊.
Well, well, well, I finished my work for this year safely🙇 Well, I have to go to work tomorrow too😊.
But since today is the end of the year, let's take care of ourselves first.
So here's one from Akabu-san: ‼︎
Great work of the soul✨Naming, cool 😍!
Great taste 👍
Great taste, great aroma 👍
Delicious 😋.
Thanks to everyone who made this year's sake activities so much fun 😊.
I hope I can continue to enjoy my sake activities in my own way next year, and I look forward to working with you again next year 🙇.
Good evening, Mr. Swissisun 梁.
Are you going to work tomorrow too 🥺 Thanks for your hard work ❣️
I know you shouldn't drink too much today...
You're drinking a lot 😅
I'm taking a break now ☕️
Let's enjoy drinking next year 💖.
Have a happy new year 🙇♂️
When the bottle was opened, there was a pusher sound. The top aroma is faintly honey-like. When you drink it, the slight carbonation, gentle sweetness, and pleasant bitterness are well balanced. This is delicious. The label on the back says it disappears in an instant, and that is exactly what it does. The aroma is that of fruity akabu (red beeswax). It is good both on its own and with food. I've been enjoying it with homemade salmon steak and pork tongue with lemon. It goes well with my recent favorite blue cheese with a dash of honey. Akabu goes well with western food as well.
Especially my favorite!

I got sick last Christmas.
I couldn't drink for about a month after that...
I have a few bottles of alcohol that have been out of action😅.
Here they are after a year ✨🥂✨!
First up is AKABU's SNOW EXTRA!
Smells good ❣️
I wonder if it's good...
Wow..! This is...
It's a little too sour 💦.
This sourness is hard to take 😓.
I should have drank it earlier... too bad ⤵︎
Good evening, Tsubu-chan! Yes there is 😁 We who love sake, it's important to take care of ourselves for it 😅 Please continue to take care of yourself 👍.
Good morning, Tsubu 😃Snow extra, that's what happens after a year 🥲I was in good shape to drink alcohol this Christmas, thank goodness, but I need to drink lots of good alcohol this holiday season while it's still good!
Good evening, Tsubu. There is such a thing as a good drink, especially when it is good. Your physical condition is also important. Thank you very much for your help this year. I hope you will be well next year.
