First time in my life 🍶 I had fun 🍶 ‼️
I probably missed one. Aradama's nigori sake, Bondara. Bondara" is a dialect of "Tsurara". I've never used it, though.
I had an image of nigori sake as sweet or milky, but BONDARA was clear and light! I thought Aradama's nigori sake was supposed to be mellow, but I didn't expect it to be like this. ‼️ It's like drinking fresh melted water from the bottara. (Not that I've ever drank water with melted icicles in it 💦)
I'd like to visit Kaku-uchi again sometime.
I bought it as a souvenir to visit a relative's house.
What a coincidence that they also have Aradama Honjozo at their house: ‼️
The prototype is a delicious sake with a sweet and sour taste like white grapes, and it was well received by everyone 🙌.
However, when we drank at the dormitory, we talked about how the Honjozo was better, and my uncle said he felt more comfortable with the Honjozo 👍.
Each of us has our own best sake according to our mood, drinking style, tastes, time period, etc. 😆.
Today, Yamagata Prefecture's Aradama's Yugi Nigori ❗️ Jungin Nama Shu's Bondara ❗️❗️
The color is light nigori when mixed. The aroma is a faint ginjo sweetness.❗️ Take a sip, and after a dense, mellow texture comes a sharp numbness, followed by a subtle moromi sweetness.❗️❗️ The sharpness makes it a good nigori sake for a meal.⭕️
A while ago, on my way home from a lunchtime drink,
I wandered into a liquor store.
I was just going to have a look, but 、、、、
I was attracted by the spring-like atmosphere, so I bought it.
When you're drunk, you're less cautious😆.
Araodama SPRING BLESSING Spring Blessing
Clear, soft sweetness, not too sweet.
Delicious 😋.
A little sourness, refreshing.
Spring-like 🌸
It's my first time to drink it, but it's pretty good.
I'm glad I bought it 😘.
Good evening, Takashi 😃.
It might be tough to just walk into a liquor store and just look 👀 😅I bought a bottle with my drunken sensibilities! You're a winner 👍.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄.
I usually just wander by and if I don't see something that hits the spot, I don't buy it,
I certainly buy them all the time when I drink 🤣.
Does alcohol attracts alcohol? I'm not sure 😝.
drinking at home (as opposed to going out)
From a brewery in Yamagata where I visited on a trip last year
I ordered it from a brewery in Yamagata where I went on a trip last year. 😄
When I went there in November, there was only the autumn harvest.
I was waiting for the limited edition light cloudy sake. 😆
At first it tasted dry as it started from the top clear layer.
but the lees slowly climbed up from the bottom.
I shook it and made it thin and cloudy.
It was dry at first, but after shaking it and making it cloudy, the sweetness came in and the balance became better.
The balance became better.
Bondara" is a Yamagata dialect word for "Icicle.
It is said that "BONDARA" means "Icicle" in the dialect of Yamagata.
It is also full of local love to the extent that it bears the dialect word "yugi (snow ❄️) nigori" (meaning "nigori")
The name "BONDARA" means "Icicle" in the dialect of Yamagata. ☺️
The photo I uploaded includes a pamphlet,

On the first night of New Year's Day, we are having a three-drink comparison of Aradama, Yoru no Teio, and Kinsen.
Aradama, Yoru no Teio, and Kinzumi.
The side dish is konawa.
I enjoy the characteristics of each.
Aradama Oniohmaru is the driest > Yoru no Teio > Kaneisen
The sweetness increases.
This wadding goes well with all the sake and brings out their individuality.
The wata is a good match for all the sakes.
Purchased at Yamagata Antenna Shop in Ginza, Tokyo.
It is the end of the year's autumn harvest at the end of the work year.
Refreshing and fruity aroma.
Lightly sweet.
Refreshing sweetness like pear.
