Sweet! And apple! Green apple flavor might be the right word. I think it would be better with Western food than Japanese food, and I think it would also be good with sweets.

I was tired yesterday.
The bullet train was delayed in the morning (chaos at Tokyo station), it snowed heavily at Nagano station (also chaos at Nagano station, this one was full of foreigners, it was like being in a foreign country), my business trip was to a university, so there were no signs of people on the grounds as they were closed, I did not know where to walk and when I arrived I was covered in snow😞.
At the end of the work, I tried to call a cab but it didn't catch at all, so I walked for about 20 minutes in the snow in the second picture.
Even though it was snowing heavily, it was Saturday and the well-known restaurants were packed, so we went to a restaurant a little further away from the station. This place is good and you can drink famous sake at a reasonable price. I don't know about you, but whiskey and shochu also seem to be reasonably priced.
We drank the following sake here: Dawn's Eve, Daishinshu, Sakunohana, Mizuo, Toyoka, and Tasake. 4 of us drank a lot 🌟.

Hi, Ane! 🙋
It was snowing like you were about to get lost 😱.
Even in such a situation, you have a perfect sense of smell to find a restaurant that serves good drinks! 😁😁
Please be careful on your way home.

Good morning, Koizo!
I'm really glad that the service was not cancelled. I was worried because there were people standing even though all seats are reserved for KAGAYAKI. I was worried 😅.

Good morning, Manachie 😃.
We all said that we should have ordered a four-pack of Daishinshu because we drank a lot of it 😁.
Snow is still dancing today. It won't melt.

Good morning, Wakata-san🌸
Rokko is also quite cold for normal living. The guy I work with today said that when it freezes in Kobe, you have to roll 😅.

Good morning, ma-ki-, ☺️
I've been working consecutive days, so even if I stay at a hotel with a hot spring and sleep on a good mattress, I'll still be tired 😅I'll be able to pull myself together today, so tomorrow I'll be home to relax.

Is there a day when it is sunny all day long in snow country? It looks so cold outside. And it's so slippery, I have to make sure I don't fall down... ⛸️

Slight fizziness upon drinking. Gorgeous melon-type aroma. The balance between the umami and the lingering taste is exquisite.

Opened January 28, 2025
Purchased after tasting at the brewery's direct sales store
Brewed with rice from Yaehara, it was an unconditional purchase.
Rather spicy ^ ^something refreshing!
But it is quite full-bodied and has a great depth of flavor. ❗️
I knew it would be Saku-no-Hana. No doubt. ☺️

I bought it at a supermarket in Saku, but it seems to be a sake only available locally.
It is a junmai sake that costs less than 2,000 yen per bottle, so it is very cost-effective.
It is a light, dry sake that is refreshing and goes well with food.

Refreshing and refreshing!
It is dry but not extremely dry and easy to drink!
Delicious!

Nowadays it is quite rare to find a ginjo that is not junmai.
Dry with a sake degree of +8 and a high alcohol content of 18%.
The aroma is very floral and can be clearly detected in the bowl.
It has a slightly sweet, ripe apple-like aroma.
There is also a slight smell of raw materials like grains, probably because it is directly pumped.
The taste is fuller than expected, with a sweet umami flavor.
Recently, I have been drinking only low alcohol sake, but this kind of strong flavor even when watered down is rather new to me.
The final taste is clean and crisp, with a slight spiciness from the alcohol, which is typical of ginjo-shu.
It's just an ordinary tasty sake.
It's more like a food sake, or a sake that whets your appetite.
