It's been cold enough that autumn seems to be over before we know it. That's why we are opening a bottle of "Akagisan" in autumn this year, too. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is like citrus and orange puree. The palate has a clear lightness that is typical of Akagisan, and a banana-like roundness that spreads out as if it were clinging to the tongue. A refreshing lactic acidity flows through it, and the rice-like umami expands as it does. It has a little bit of astringency and spiciness that is lightly stimulating and sharp, with a well balanced taste of push and pull ✨. The flavor of maturity is less pronounced than last year, giving the impression of lightness. The new sake is finally ready and we can't wait for the release date: ✍️

Second night in the car 🚚. Gunma-chan is popular with kids for some reason✨ The design is very local and easy to understand 🙇. It's pretty sweet and tasty 😋. Thanks to the recent trend of bears 🐻, many plans were cancelled 😭. The only thing I remember is the local sake✨

Speaking of Gunma, Akagisan‼️ is usually found in restaurants that serve alcohol. This share is amazing. Today it is Gunma-chan cup. The color is yellowish...I drank it cold...is it a little habitual? Today's sake is hot because I'm having Matsuya's meat sucker as a side dish. The aroma is weak and refreshing. It is 60% polished rice. It is delicious hot.

The 3rd Bishu Competition 2025 Kansai ⑬ Heading to the Akagisan booth as promised Kurohiki Junmai Daiginjo Centrifugal Separator Pressing PREMIUM Polishing ratio 35%, special A Yamadanishiki, price 16,000 yen, I think. It was gorgeous, sweet and delicious. It was really good, but I was surprised when I heard the price 😳. Honjozo Dry Nama-Shu It's dry but not just spicy, it's light and has a slight umami flavor. Kijoshu Shoma Strong sweetness, but easy to drink with a smooth taste. With little time left, we decided to use all our tickets at the Akagisan booth. The ticket booth was also closed, so we couldn't buy tickets. I got a strap from Akagisan 😊. I ended up refilling my ticket twice and I think it was the most satisfied I've ever been at a ticketed event 🤔. Multiple booths let us drink with less tickets and one ticket allowed us to drink for 2 people! The company that makes Apaguard, which dominated the commercials with Saki Takaoka and Mikihisa Higashi, seemed to be a sponsor of the event, and when I was leaving the venue, they gave me a large amount of Apaguard to take home as much as I wanted 🤣. I guess just like alcohol, it's hard to get leftovers 🤔. That's it for the sake competition... To be continued😅

The ones I did not drink at the sake competition were Katanozakura, Kamitsuru, Tamanomitsu, Shigemasu, Sashi, Miyogiku, Sanzen, Echigo Tsurukame, Ichinokura, Biwa no Sasanami, and Echino Kanmei. I should have drunk Biwa no Sasanami and Shigemasu since they did not come to the event.

The 1000th check-in is, of course, this gentleman! 🎉 He also achieved 100 check-ins for "Akagisan (Mt. Akagi)" with the can type that he had brought without fail 🤗. On the way back to Aomori, we had some Tsugaru rice crackers with us! A beautiful and clear touch and sharpness that you wouldn't know if it was mixed with Aomori sake. It has a beautiful, clear touch and sharpness that you wouldn't know if it was mixed with Aomori sake, with a light sweetness followed by a crisp, outstanding spiciness. This is a brand I want to continue to love ✨. If I had not met Akagisan, my sake life would not be what it is today, and I only wonder if this Tohoku trip would have been something else. I am filled with gratitude for my encounter with Akagisan!

Congratulations stst on your 1000 check-ins and 100 check-ins for Akagisan! Ponchan and below, but it's wonderful to see stst's post and have a guess 🍶💕I wish I could drink more Gunma sake 😊.

Japanese>English

Thank you, Gyve! Maygase also has a rustic texture and delicious taste ✨. In addition to Tsugaru sembe, it looks exactly like Aizu's samurai sembe, but I'm starting to wonder if it's the location and climate or its roots 🧐.

Japanese>English

Thank you, Pon! This time I carried it with me to drink on the bullet train or at the hotel to accompany me on my journey, as it was going to be a milestone for many things: ✌️ I am also grateful to Pon-chan and all of you for helping me reach this major milestone!
