Sweetness is gentle.
Sweet humminess with a refreshing sourness peeking through later.
Not much bitterness.
I'd say bitterness, or astringency, at the end.

Sourness and sweetness coexist.
Refreshing aroma
Sweet, umami, and acidity are floral.
But there is also bitterness and spiciness.
Sake is made from rice, I feel.

Dry scam Sorry 🙇 I'm out of line.
I'm an old man who doesn't think spicy is spicy anymore.
It's refreshing and tasty for a Nigori.
I guess you can't imagine it from the intensity of the label.
Hi Nochi 😃
I don't want to say that it's dry heron ⁉️ 😅I know what you mean 👍I'd be prepared for it if it was dry with this look! We don't think that 😋 is dry, but we don't think it's good either 🤗.
Jay & Nobby Good evening. Spicy is difficult, isn't it? Not wasabi, not mustard, not karashi, not karamucho, but spicy. I wish I was an adult who could understand spiciness.
Shin-Yamaguchi 2
For my second drink in Shin-Yamaguchi, I was torn between 🤔 and Nagato Gorge.
Yamaguchi's sake is fascinating (Toyo Bijin? Gotohashi? Ki? Ganki? ...), but I decided to go for my first one!
I've had Nagato Gorge a few times, but this is my first time!
Clear!
Clear.
Dry, but with a hint of sweetness.
A little sweeter than the Kaho no Sato I had earlier?
I usually try not to eat too many calories (no lie), but when I eat out, I eat too much🤣I ate too much today too😅.
This place is pretty good, I might go back!
I thought it would be light and easy to drink, but it had a gassy, sweet and sharp taste with a slightly strong dry aftertaste.
It is a little dry, but overall it is easy to drink.
Shinkansen from Shin-Yamaguchi (2)
Shinkansen from Shin-Yamaguchi to Shin-Yokohama, the person next to me who got on from Okayama, Shin-Kobe, when I was anxious to drink.
Do you see any improvement from the last time? 😝 (Last time I closed up store before arriving at Shin-Kobe)
But I was a little hesitant to open another bottle, because I was worried about the person next to me... The person next to me was a McShake!
But never mind, go ahead 😜.
Next stop, Nagato Gorge.
I stocked this yesterday at a liquor store near the station!
It's a little bit thick and full-bodied.
It has a strong taste, and although it has a bit of an "arosozome" feeling, it's nice!
Today's items?
Nagato Gorge Nama-Shu Honjozo
Sugihime Junmai Ginjo
Kirin Ichiban Shibori
Kashiwa-meshi bento (actually Fukuoka 🤣)
Ponzu (Japanese citrus juice) and onion slices!
Cheese cologne
Cheese cologne (snack fish cake), Yama-yaki dango (recommended by Ishikawa Yoshijun from Yamaguchi?)
We will be late, but we will be able to go home. ☺️
I have enough drinks to get to Shizuoka area 🥳.
Good evening, Takashi.
It's an extra sake activity on the way home. ⤴️
Nagato Gorge, another label, I remember it was very tasty 🎵.
Sake on the train might be good too 😊.
Thank you very much, ma-ki-😊.
I'm kind of enjoying drinking Shinkansen. Although I have to be a little careful of the person next to me 😆.
True, there are a lot of good sake in Yamaguchi 😋.
Takashi, I'm with you 😃.
Oh! You've really raised the bar: ⤴️ It sure takes a lot of courage to open a bottle of alcohol and let the aroma waft through the air with people next to you 😅But you've already expanded your store 🤗Nice job 👍!
Thank you Jay & Nobby 😊.
Yesterday the bullet train was crowded because of the snow, so it was unavoidable that there were people next to me, but it did bother me a bit 😅 there is a little more room for improvement considering that people are coming next to me!
Good morning, Takashi!
Great izakaya shinkansen composition 😁.
I'm curious about the Kashiwameshi Bento and Yaki Dango ✨.
The person next to me only thinks [McShake Umesu〜], probably 🤣.
Hi, Takashi 🐦.
Did you make it to Shizuoka? That's quite a level up 😆👍I think a McShake on the way home 🚄 would be rarer 🤣 don't worry about it and enjoy 🎶.
Thank you, Pon-chan 😊.
I think the reason it lasted until Shizuoka this time is partly because the cup was so small 🍶.
Last time I used a one-cup cup as a vessel 🤣.
Next time I'll aim even higher (that's not what I'm trying to do 😝)
It has a sweet taste, but it's not fruity, it's sweet with a hint of tanginess.
You can tell that it is derived from rice.
It has a lingering aftertaste that lingers on.
The aftertaste of rice leaves a sticky aftertaste.
Not too dry, but not fruity either.
It's like old-fashioned sake.
I'd like to drink it with mackerel or something.
信州上田ファン倶楽部（東京都練馬区）は、長野県上田市の魅力を語り合うトークイベント「みんなで語ろう上田のまちをSAKETIMES | 日本酒をもっと知りたくなるWEBメディア
長野県上田市で「信州亀齢」を醸す岡崎酒造は、市内に唯一残る「稲倉の棚田」（日本の棚田百選）の美しい景観を守るため、棚田で育てられた酒米を積極的に買い取って日本酒を造っています。 昨年（2020）10月には、長野県が棚田の保全を企業が担うことを目的として導入した全国初の「棚田パートナーシップ協定」の第一号案件として、岡崎酒造が稲倉の棚田保全委員会と協定を結びました。地域の美しい棚田の景観を守ることは、米を使って商売をしている地酒蔵のやらなければならない大切な役割と考えてのこと。年々使う棚田米の量を増やしてきた岡崎酒造の地域貢献への狙いを探りました。SAKE Street | プロも愛読の日本酒メディア
