Last weekend I was out of sake to go with oden, so I went to the local supermarket and bought a 300㎖ bottle for the sake. It has a sweet and refreshing taste. It's good at hiya, but it tastes even better when it's warmed up to human skin temperature to increase the sweetness. However, I thought it would be too clean to pair with oden. I chose this sake because I wanted to keep it light, but.... If I wanted to warm it up, I could have used a more robust Junmaishu or even Honjozo. I'm still learning💦.

On a trip to Shiga, I visited Hirai Shoten. The quaint appearance of the store and the display of products were a sight to behold. Today's bottle was the "Sake Brewer's 3003000 Year Old" (pictured left). The aroma is melon, apple, and pineapple, and the first sip is a punch. It has a mellow sweetness, but the acidity and bitterness make it crisp and refreshing. Delicious. Well, Shiga Prefecture was fun! I'm also looking forward to Kosetsu (I heard it's read as Fouche) on the right side of the photo 😄.

Hi Marue 🐦. It looks like white wine on the inside and the gap between the label and the wine is surprising 😆.

Yesterday, I visited Inuyama Castle, Hikone Castle, and other five national treasures, which I had longed to visit! We enjoyed "Omi Champon" and "Tenri Ramen" on the way and stayed overnight in Nara. I had a drink at "Asakayu" in Shiga and "Umenoyado" in Nara. First, "Asakayousei"! When I opened the bottle, the aroma was fresh and fruity, like apples and pears. The mouthfeel is smooth and the main taste is dry, acidic and astringent. It has a mellow, grape-like flavor with a hint of sweetness that makes it enjoyable on its own! The wine is beautifully integrated and the assertion of umami is as modest as a gentle breeze, so you can drink it with gusto, just like the lord on the label ✨.
