I was in Nagoya on a drinking trip from Monday to Friday this week.
After checking into the hotel, I went to Sakeya Otake in Sakae to have a drink 😌.
It's an extra sake that is an assemblage of Isobeki Omachi and Yamadanishiki 🍶.
The first aroma is slightly sweet.
It has a full-bodied sweet flavor in the mouth.
It has a slight matured taste.
The brewery's store had it in the aged sake section, so I wonder if it was mixed with tank-aged sake.
I should have asked the lady at the kiosk😅.
The third and fourth pictures are of the brewery and direct sales area of the Isobeki Sake Brewery, about a 15-minute walk from Nunobukuro Station on the Meitetsu Inuyama Line.
It seems that Konishi-san in Kanda has become a special distributor in Tokyo, so I guess I will have more opportunities to drink it.
It was delicious 🍶✨
Good morning, Pon-chan. 🧑🍳
Many of the breweries in Nagoya don't have a direct sales office, so we didn't get to talk to the brewery staff much 🤔.
But it was nice to get a taste of the sake brewing atmosphere, including the surrounding streets ✨.
Today, after a company social event, a group of volunteers went out for sake drinking and had an after-party. When I came to this restaurant, I had a bottle of Isun Heki Honjozo. It was delicious and extremely clear, even though it was alky sake.

The third consecutive low temperature aging following Houou Mita and Tosa Shiragiku 🎆.
The aging period is said to be half a year, but the liquid is a little ochre-colored with a yellowish tinge for that 🟡.
The moment you drink it, you can feel the impact of the sweetness and the alcohol, and after swallowing it, you will be left with a sharp bitter taste with a matured taste 😆.
A little nutty 🥜 flavor, low acidity, and a strong umami and toromi, exactly what I like 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.
It is sold all year round and is priced around 1,500 yen, so great that I think I'll make it a regular sake 🤣.

This bottle was given to me by a friend.
The aroma is smooth and the slightly sweet taste makes it very easy to drink.
It may be due to the fact that it is hiyaoroshi, but it gives the impression of a relaxed and calm sake.
If I don't save it, I will drink it one after another.
Polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content 16%.
Spring sake is not over yet🌸

A sake full of local love ✨.
The aroma is sweet 🍈.
The taste is of firm rice flavor!
The sake taste is also strong, and then the bitterness comes slowly 😋.
By the way, this sake is still sold at liquor stores in Aichi 🤣👍.
Opened a recent purchase. Sweet. Dark. And fresh. Like plum wine.
It's not in the picture, but it goes well with bitter melon stir-fry!
Well, let's welcome September!
The bottle was easy to drink and was quickly consumed.
It has a clear, sweet taste and aroma like a daiginjo, and it is easy to drink, so it was finished in an instant.
I bought it at the brewery's store after it was recommended to me as a sweet sake and popular with women. When I removed the wrapping paper, there was no label on the front of the bottle. The alcohol content is slightly high at 17% and I drank it on the rocks. It was sweet at first, but had a tangy and spicy taste. It tasted better than expected. 1,650 yen
I was at Hanshin department store and bought it.
I also brought the Daiginjo that takeshon-san was drinking, but I noticed it after I went home and looked at the instagram 😭.
I thought it was expensive, but it was just under 2,000 yen.
I always get the impression that the brewer doesn't talk much and is very taciturn 🤔.
I asked him about Gojogawa Sakura, but he didn't bring it to Hanshin, but they have various kinds.
I honestly wondered why they don't bring it to Hanshin 😅! I thought 😅
It has a strong flavor and a long aftertaste. A little smoky at the end. I think I personally prefer the Nakagosei-Shin-Senbon. The best one is Gojogawa Sakura, though.
It is sweeter and tastier at just before room temperature than when it is cooled down to the perfect temperature.
Hi bouken 😃
I remember this was very tasty 😋I think I had the impression that it wasn't too strong for a Heki 😆 Ahh, I've been wanting to drink Heki for a long time now...
Mr. Takeshon, good evening 🌃
It was a sake that gives quite a different impression depending on the temperature range😊.
I do think the other Isao Heki's are darker 🤔.
I think you can get a lot of Isobeki in the neighborhood 😁.
