Snowman came to our house again this year.
Last year's entrée was nozawana. This year it is vinegared yam and baby sardines.
When the bottle is opened, the lees rising from the bottom of the bottle is a nice touch.
In the mouth, it is full of fresh gas, but it also has umami and bitterness, and although the alcohol content is 13%, you can feel the alcohol taste.
It is a good sake on its own as well.
(Postscript)
The second day, it still has a certain amount of gas, but the taste is more subdued, which is more to my liking.
Be careful when opening the bottle as it is fizzy and foamy. After carefully opening and closing the bottle several times, the wine mixes in the bottle and becomes cloudy white and pure white like snow. Once you drink it, the fizzy feeling, moderate acidity, and refreshing taste with no peculiarities at all will keep you coming back for more (laugh). I would definitely drink this sake again!
I finally got to taste it: ☺️
I've been hooked on sake since spring, and I'd heard rumors about Yukidal-san: ⛄️
I finally had a chance to drink it.
The bijou looks like a snow globe!
I wanted to mix it, but it kept blowing out, so I quietly opened the bottle.
It didn't blow out and I drank from the top clear and ended up with a beautiful nigorizake that looked like snow: ❄️
I couldn't taste it well because I opened the bottle after getting drunk 😢.
But it was delicious from start to finish and I drank it all at once. I want to buy another bottle again!
I bought another one this year. Two bottles just in case😅.
It's sweet but also has a nice bitterness, just delicious!
I think I'll drink the other bottle a little closer to winter lol.
Almost like calpis, more liquor-like than Sanuki Cloudy.
It's a cloudy sake that makes you feel like you're drinking something.
The package is cute, so it would be good for a girls' night out.
Blowout Warning! I especially like it this year!

Snowman that has been freshly mastered this season ⛄❣️
I'm not quite sure what the difference is 💦.
It's now a sake yeast yeast 😋.
Hmmm, more umami 🤔
Peach🍑 and banana🍌 type creaminess is still the same ❣️
Light and refreshing, with a beautiful, yet gradual spread of umami 💕.
The gasiness and the acidity that is typical of Senkyoku are also present, and it is as delicious as ever 🎶.
Personally, I find more umami than sweetness and more bitterness in the sharpness 😋.
This is my favorite part 😆.
I think it's becoming more like HIRO0 nigori lol
I feel like it has changed to a deeper flavor while still being mild and easy to drink as before 👍
The second item in the Lawson Tenichi Fair is the Akanko Cheese Curry Bread 🍞.
This one is also delicious 🎶Spicy and spicy is the best👍👍👍
Hi T.KISO 😃
While you say you don't know better, a neat review ‼️ we probably won't notice the difference 😅I didn't drink it last season, so I think I'll get it this time 🤗.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄.
The acidity is typical of Sentori, but it seems to have more umami and bitterness that I didn't notice much before 💦😅 maybe💦💦.
Maybe I like it better than before ❣️ I drank it all in two days 😊
There is a feeling of gas
There is an oily smell
Calpis-like aroma
The sweetness is moderate and milky.
After that comes sourness and rice flavor.
There is a slight alcohol taste.
Easy to drink
First snowball.
The aroma is cloudy and common.
It is quite habitual, mild and easy to drink.
Slightly sour, but not unpleasantly so.
It is tasty, but I personally prefer it after the bottle has been opened.
Domaine Sakura, 100% Yamadanishiki (produced in Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture)
Very popular snowman
Repeat from last year
Atmospheric aroma reminiscent of pears
Tastes like white grape juice when not mixed with nigori
When mixed with the nigori, it tastes mellow and the acidity is more pronounced.
Less sweet and more crisp than last year's
♪♪♪♪♪
I haven't had nigori sake since I had it at Abe.
I don't usually get (or buy) it 💦.
But I bought it because of the cute bottle.
I was afraid it might blow up. I was wary that it might blow up, but it was safely uncorked 😊.
My first impression was "Calpis soda? I was so happy!
I liked it because of its gentle taste!
It's delicious! ←I'm not sure how long it took me to get to this word 🤣.
I was thinking that it might be popular with women. I thought, "It's easy to drink! I like it," said his wife.
She said it was delicious. ☺️
The snacks were
Tofu paste with lots of vegetables
It was a white salad with a lot of vegetables!
And I was washing the empty bottle after finishing the drink.
Maybe it will be a bottle light.
Hi Miyabi 😃
Congratulations on your first snowman ☃️ and ㊗️ 🎉It's delicious 😙.
And after Kabutomushi, you have a case for keeping empty bottles 🤗 We have a collection of them too 🤗.
Hi J&N😊
Thank you! It's my first snowman ☃️ 😄
I saw it at the liquor store and thought "I have to buy this! I thought, "I've got to get this one!" ☺️
Maybe it will be a bottle light, so the icon picture will change soon... 🤣
The second act of the Nigolympics.
We were able to capture it again this year. It seems to have been changed to "Namahashimoto" (sake yeast), but how?
Opening the bottle was relatively easy, although it came up shrieking three times.
The texture is more shwashy on the tongue, with a milky rice sweetness while the acidity typical of the sake spreading on the palate.
The impression of smooth freshness remains unchanged until the aftertaste. The acidity of the sake is pleasant in the aftertaste, and you can't stop drinking it.
The snowball has a nice nama yeast yeast yeast yeast. It was not dull last year, but this year it is even more refreshing and I like it very much.
I don't remember if it was the year before last or three years ago, but there was a time when it was quite dry, but unlike that time, it is cloudy and you can feel the volume, which is very satisfying.
I don't mind if you think I'm a meek person, but Sentori's Yukidaruma is the most delicious(?).
9.5
⭐️4.0
This sake matches its snowy name. Foaming sensation (impressed by the schwappiness) clean, acidity and bitterness are addictive. Grapefruit feeling. You want the next sip right away. Terribly light. Is this sake? Sake
Price: ¥1,953
Well, well, well, it's the season of Nigori-zake (cloudy sake)
Nigorizake drinking comparison
I wanted to try a nigorizake drinking comparison at home once 😤.
First right: Sengoku Snowman
Second from the right: Jikin Toku Jun Nigori Nama
Second from the left: Daimine, Winter no Otosore
1st left - Tenbi a.k.a. Yukiten
First, the Snowman.
It has the strongest oriki among these 4 bottles. When I opened the bottle, it came up to the top of the bottle and it didn't spill, but it got mixed up before I could drink the top clear 😅.
That's how strong it is and this year's is delicious too 😋.
The balance of sweetness and sourness was perfect, and the tanginess was strong too 🍶It's still delicious 😋.
Today's entrée was Sendai's famous Seri Nabe.
Good evening, Mr. Swissisun 🥺.
That's awesome that you have a Jikin 🥺✨
I'm jealous ❣️ I'm also collecting muddy 🍶 but I don't think I'll be able to find it 😅I'm looking forward to your review😊‼️
Good evening, Swissisan😄An awesome lineup😍I'm jealous of your drinking comparison! I'm curious to know which one was the biggest hit 👍I also went to the liquor store today and bought 3 bottles of Nigori 👍✌️
Hi, HinaHanaMama. Thanks for the comment 😊.
I'm curious to see the lineup of 3 bottles today ‼️ wonderful👍! I'm curious to see the lineup! I'm not sure.
It's hard to say which one is better 😭They are all very good 😋.
Hi, Swisssu 😃.
Nigorisai! Nice to have a nice drinking comparison 🤗Nice to pair it with seri nabe 🍲👍!
You can also try last year's J&N Nigori Festival Champ Sake Yukigumo if you like 👋
Hi Jay & Nobby, how are you? We'll continue the festival today 😊.
The festival will continue today and I'm looking forward to seeing how the sake has changed after a day 👍.
I'll have to look for a Izumo Fuji distributor first 😃.
Chill the bottle well and open it. Bubbles came out, but nothing serious. I corked the bottle and stirred it upside down. When it started to rise, I poured it into a cup.
It had no acidity, no aroma, and no sweetness that I had imagined, as is typical of Senkyoku. I had heard that it was silky, but it was not as sweet as it looked. It is low in alcohol and refreshing. I would like to have more sweetness and umami.
Yukidaruma: 1950 yen (4-pack bottle)
On the last night of my business trip, I went to a sake shop where I could choose my favorite sake, and saw a sign saying "Yukidaruma is now in stock ⛄❄" at ....... The usual An-chan was in the middle of serving customers and didn't seem to be able to help me choose, so I was glad to meet him! GET this one 😆.
I can't believe it's that time of the year already 😳.
My memory of Snowman is that I bought it because it was famous for its delicious sake and I kept it on its side and the fridge swallowed half of it 😫😭😓.
I had no idea there was a hole in the cap 💦 I learned my lesson✨.
Well, I can't bring it home tonight, so I will enjoy a bottle by myself 😚😚.
Today's snacks were bonito tataki, spinach with sesame paste and Yoshinoya pickles. I guess that's what you get for drinking at a hotel 🥺.
Now, open the bottle‼️Swishwashwashwash✨️✨️~Sweet aroma💜💜The nigori part is also matte and delicious 🤗🤗.
Sweet and juicy from the first attack!
Calpis soda for adults 😚.
It's really delicious and awesome!
I will enjoy it tonight. 🙇♂️
Good morning, TOMO 😃
A familiar liquor store on a business trip! That's a quintessential 👍Snowman you met there ☃️ is one that can turn even bitter feelings into sweet ones 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby😊
You are a ......... poet who can turn even bitter memories into sweet ones. 💕︎ You are very good at phrasing and I learn a lot from you. I will use this phrase next time 🙇♂️
