Senbatsu High School Baseball Tournament
Congratulations to Urawa Jitsugyo Gakuen High School on their victory🎉!
I was at work, so I couldn't watch the game at leisure.
Ishido, an irregular left-handed pitcher, pitched well.
I was surprised by his unique form when I saw him at the Saitama Prefecture Fall Tournament last fall, but he is a real talent.
I wanted to drink some sake from Saitama Prefecture, so I put it to sleep, Shinkame's Green Label, sweet sake.
It has been stored at room temperature for 2 years and 4 months since purchase, but it has little coloring and little maturing aroma or peculiarity.
It is mellow, stable in quality, good from room temperature, and can be heated to a very hot temperature.
Good evening, Mr. Hiraccio. Green Label is a little sweet and easy to drink 😊The president of the company came to a department store in Kansai and heated it up so much that he brought home a bottle of 🐢 so I'd like to enjoy it slowly. ♨️
Good morning, Hirupeco 😊.
Green Label is a little sweet and easy to drink. I think it has a good taste of rice and sweetness.
It's good to warm up various kinds of sake at the Shinkame sales event and the president's visit: ❗️
When served cold, it has a slight flavor of rice.
Not too much sweetness.
No aftertaste.
When warmed up, the rice flavor is full of flavor.
A savory caramel-like flavor remains.
It is quite robust.
Ibushigin" is a word that fits this sake well.
Shinkame is synonymous with dry sake, and dry sake is synonymous with Shinkame. It is also a pioneer in the extremely avant-garde field of Junmai (pure rice).
Last time, I had a medium (sweet) sake called SWEET SQUASH, and I wanted to taste again the quality and robustness that is typical of Shinkame, so I decided to try the standard version.
The quality of the sake is as strong as ever! However, it is not as harsh as I expected, perhaps because it is more dry... 15.5% alcohol? The normal sake is 16%, so it is only 0.5%... Perhaps it is a gap from my imagination of 17-8% rather than my sharp taste buds. I wonder if it is because of this degree that I felt it was slightly different from what I imagined or remembered?
The aroma of alcohol is not related to ginjo aroma or anything like that, and is not flirtatious. When heated up, it was delicious. It may be hard to convey to those who are more interested in Capulet, but it is definitely good for those who are accustomed to dry sake. It can be served with a wide range of foods.
It has the appearance of a veteran actor who is very graceful, as if to say, "I am who I am, but I will show you what is good, and even if you don't like it, it's my personality. I would like to try the other wines in the series!
It's spring! Continued from the most profound festival, I bought it because it was on sale at a lower price than I was under the impression.
Jacket price... 7/10
I think the retro label is the way a heavy-bodied sake should be, though the outside world is a bit pop.
Ki ... 10/20
The pouring sound is good, the smell is strong, almost like soy sauce, and the initial impression is light, but you can feel a medium sweet/smelling stimulation at the back of your tongue.
Sei... 9/20
The taste is not scorching and does not cling to the body, but the sublimation smell is of grain. 3 for the taste and 7 for the aroma is not a good balance.
Transition ... 5/20
Unfortunately, I don't know what to find in the modulation section, there is no change in the texture in a good or bad way, and the sublimation smell is also giving me rice smell.
The sublimation smell is also a bit too much, and it makes me smell like rice.
Yui ... 6/20
The taste has been slightly burnt, and the only thing left is the smell of grain-based soy sauce, which leaves only the impression of sublimation.
Cospa ... 4/10
For rice smell fanatics.
After review...I realized that "umakuchi" is essential for a heavy-bodied beer.

If the flavor is complex or rich, but the aroma alone is not enough to satisfy me, I want to ask, "What have you been doing for three years? I want to ask "What have you been doing for three years?
The refrain was "I'm a hawk...".
Good youthful aroma, typical of nama-shu.
A little earthy, herbal, and spicy aroma on the palate.
The sweetness is quickly followed by a shift to a full-bodied rice flavor.
The acidity is moderately tight. The aftertaste is spicy and tangy.
It is a delicious sake without being sweet.
4/5 stars for my favorite.
Noge with his eldest son and his wife (3)
Next (and last) sake of the day at a sushi bar
This is also my first time drinking Shinkame!
(I may not have drunk much Saitama sake 🙄 )
A little dry.
A little dry?
A little different from the image of nama-shu?
But maybe this kind of taste goes well with sushi and tempura 🥳.
After that, we left the restaurant and parted at Sakuragicho station, but my eldest son and his wife said they were going to eat Ramen afterwards 😱!
I wonder how much they eat!
Good morning, Takashi 😃.
Sushi🍣 Izakaya🏮 and dry sake🍶 is good 😙A good day with your son and his wife for a quick drink from noon? It was a good day for a drink with your son and his wife 🤗.
I think I could go for ramen 🍜😆.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😊.
We've been loving this restaurant lately, we've been there a few times and everyone has been happy 🥰.
Sushi, tempura and dry sake 🍶 sounds good 😘.
I can't resist the temptation of ramen 🤣.
I was attracted by the POP saying it is perfect for warming sake. I enjoy it slowly, especially on cold days.
It has a similar flavor to Kikuhime, but this one is a little milder. The label says it is dry, but it is not that dry and soft. I am sure it will make you happy when paired with oden.
This is a sake made by Shinkame, the Yokozuna of the East (by the way, the Yokozuna of the West is Akizuka).
It is a very heavy and heavy sake,
But it is still a little lighter than Shinkame's usual sake,
