It's New Year's Eve.
Now, the last bottle..,
It is not the sake I had planned. It was a big change of direction.
Mom happened to have bought some "Torafugu fin" for us.
And there happened to be a bottle of Gekkeikan Junmai-shu in the fridge.
For the last sake of the year, I would like to make fin sake for the first time in my life.
I usually don't read the instructions very carefully, but this time I carefully read how to make it.
Well, the final step is to skip the yawning with a chakaman and it's done.
Bon appétit!
Did I put in 4 pieces of fugu fin too much? It's quite a nice fishy texture.
It is full of flavor! I enjoyed the atmosphere of the end of the year to the fullest!
Thank you very much to everyone at Sake-no-Wa for all your help this year!
I have made it a daily routine to look at the reviews. It's fun!
Next year we will be in the middle of the Great Killing Zone. I hope to turn my luck into a positive one with the power of Bishu.
Please have a warm New Year's Eve. Have a happy New Year!
Good evening, chika! Is it right or not? It was such a first time for me, including the taste (lol).
Thank you for the past year! Thank you for one year!
Good evening, ichiro18! It may have been just a fake Hire Sake (lol), but it was such a powerful sake that the sushi was overpowered! Let's have a great time next year with delicious sake!
Pekkar, congratulations on the first filet sake of your life 🎉!
I've never made it myself so I saw that you did 😆 It was a nice New Year's Eve drink!
Please have a happy new year ✨
Good evening, Pon! I grilled pufferfish fins in a pan over low heat. The sake is dinged in a microwave oven at about 80 degrees Celsius. And yet, the sake was a little different from what I thought it would be. lol Please come back next year!
Happy New Year, Mr. Pekkaaru 🌅🎍⛩!
It's not Gekkeikan, but I also had fin sake with fugu fin yesterday 😚 It's aromatic, full of flavor, warming and great in winter!
I look forward to working with you again this year 🙏✨
Happy New Year, Kotaro-san! Kotaro-san, fin sake, too!
In my case, the amount of sake was small for 4 fins.... It was a fin sake like drinking fish....lol...I look forward to working with you again this year!
I'm drinking at home🎶🎵
The daughter of a colleague at work works at Gekkeikan and I got this 🎁 for her dad 😊.
I wondered if it would be okay 😅20% alcohol. I thought it would be okay, but when I drank it, it was sweet, fruity, had a delicious taste of rice, and was very mild 😊.
I didn't feel the alcohol content of 20, but I will drink it until I can drink it because it's New Year's Eve 😊.
I wish you all a happy new year 😊.
Good evening Aochan 😃It's so nice to end the year at 20 degrees 😍Thank you so much for your help this year 😊Please look forward to seeing you again next year 🙇♀️
Good evening Mr. Wakata😊.
Mr. and Mrs. Wakata must be drinking sake right now while watching Kohaku 🍶😊.
20 degrees is so-so punchy 😆.
We look forward to working with you in the coming year😊🙇♂️
Thanks for another great year, Ao😊.
I've never had a moon 💦 and I don't think I've ever seen a pack of this color before 🤔.
I hope to see you next year 🙏✨
Happy New Year, Mr. Jive! ㊗️
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! You're right, I was thinking of drinking it heated too 😊.
I hope you have a great new year 🙇.
I'll be asking for your help from this year onwards without Mr.😅
Happy New Year, Ao🎍!
I see that you spent your New Year's Eve relaxing with a 20 degree Gekkeikan 🎵.
I think the well-balanced sake that doesn't make you feel the alcohol content is going to be good for you 😋.
Have a great year of drinking!
I thought the jacket was not like Gekkeikan, but it was designed by students of Kyoto University of Arts.
Products made in collaboration with students are a good attempt to encourage young people to like sake in the future.
The aroma is weak, as is typical of honjozo.
Unfortunately, it was not very memorable.
The taste is clean or thin. When it is drunk with some air, its gorgeousness comes out strongly. However, the quality of the sake remains thin. If Yamada-Nishiki is used, it should have a little more flavor.
Average 30: 40 for flavor, 30 for aroma, 30 for body, 50 for appearance, and 20 for aftertaste.
The first taste is just alcoholic, more like fruit wine than brightness, too sweet but not fake, juicy and a bit like fruit wine, like dew on XX, which is what it used to be called. There's no body to it, it's just light. It has a strong tropical fruit flavor, so if that's what you're going for with your sake, go for it!
The second in the series of straw sakes for professional sake drinkers, it has a characteristic slightly pungent acidity and a clear yet full-bodied taste, perhaps due to its four-stage brewing process, but at 13°C it is not as easy to drink as water because of its acidity and full-bodied taste. It has a crisp aftertaste with a full-bodied rice flavor and richness, which is probably due to the use of Gekkeikan's original yeast.
A light bottle of Grui before going to bed.
A sparkling sake, Utakata, by Gekkeikan of Fushimi, Kyoto.
Purchased at a supercenter in Mino City.
It is a bottle of sake for a mealtime drink, but I tried it on its own.
The aroma is yogurt-like with a strong sourness.
The taste is a good match between the acidity and carbonation, which enhances the sweetness of the sake.
The fruity flavor is asserted, so it could be called a fruit cider.
This kind of cider is also interesting.
It is less sake-like, but I don't know if it's the sparkling sake or the improved technology, but the lack of sake that I felt in the normal version is diminished.
