The first bottle is Nagato Gorge 🍶The first bottle was served at room temperature 😊It had a refreshing taste, and then I had it at about the same temperature as the top warmer, but it was just as refreshing and crisp as the room temperature, and I felt like I could drink it as much as I wanted. I also had it slightly lowered to lukewarm (45-6℃), but personally, I think it tastes best served in the upper temperature range 😁😁😁😁🍶.
I would like to try it cold, so I will put it in a 8-drink cup and chill it in the fridge to enjoy the changes in flavor 😆😆😆😆.
Good evening, chichi!
I see you posted about the sakes you brought along on your trip 🎵.
I was not able to visit the Nagato Gorge brewery on this trip, but I remember it was delicious when I received it as a souvenir this year 😋.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your posts as you go along 🤗.
IGOMA October Tasting (3)
Dry special junmai hiyaoroshi
A new brand of Nagato Kyo
We are thankful that we don't see it very often.
It's called "dry" but it's not that dry and easy to drink!
I was surprised to see +7 on the label just like Wakakoma!
I didn't buy it this time, but I was interested in Nagato Gorge's Isehikari.
It has a mellow mouthfeel and a nice sharpness from the umami.
This is a sake to drink while enjoying the aging process of hiyaoroshi.
Serve with fried dumplings
Sakai Branch BBQ afterwards (3)
I found a bottle of Nagato Kyo's Omachi Nama sake and thought it was unusual, but I was told that there was a tasting of this sake as well, so I tried it!
I was told that it was aged for 5 years, but it was delicious with a strong umami taste without feeling too matured.
After much hesitation, I bought a bottle of Toyoake Shiny and a bottle of Wasshin no Omachi, which was not available for tasting!
After I got home, I searched for sake-no-wa and found that they were drinking Washin no Yumachi with a different label, so I thought I should have gone for Nagato Kyo or Shinkai 😅.
Thank you manager for coming just before closing time and letting me sample the sake 🙇.
He dropped me off at the nearby station and we parted ways with everyone.
Thank you for a great time 🙏.
Good evening, bouken 😃I see here that you drank a lot 😁I got a tickle around my neck from all the compliments on my house 💦I really enjoyed it so I'll be up next time so please come again 😊.
Good evening, Mr. Wakata.
Thank you for everything the other day 🙇.
I got home and the drunkenness hit me by the time difference😅.
I think it's nice to have an environment where you can snooze when you get sleepy 🤗.
I sometimes have trouble reading it 🙁.
I often come across place names that "only locals" can read, especially in my line of work!
I got it as a souvenir!
It's my first one!
This is not "nagato" but "choumon" strait 🙂.
Yopa memo_φ(____)
Slightly firm.
Just a little, but citrusy aroma
Refreshing and very sharp.
Suitable for a mealtime drink
Thank you for the drink 🎶.
A bonus photo
A photo taken when we went to Toba Aquarium in May because my eldest daughter suddenly said she wanted to see sea otters🦦!
It was just feeding time!
Shells are properly returned to the keeper 😄.
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
