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.
chikumo for sharing with us 😁.
Thank you.
They start with sweet and end with a little dry.
and ends with a little dry taste.
It also has a bit of nigori flavor.
It's so perfect and delicious 😆.
Hatsu Nagato Gorge😄
I bought it because I wanted to drink nigori with a lot of gusto!
It's sweet and you can feel it's nigori 😄.
It has a gaseous taste and you can drink it in large gulps, but if you look closely, you can see that it is 18 degrees ‼️
Shifted to soda 😄
It was delicious 😊.
Hello, chikumo-san.
Congratulations on your first Nagato Gorge 🎉.
I also had my first Nagato Gorge this week, though with a different label, so I had to respond: ⤴️
It's a very good sake from a very good brewery 😊.
The second bottle in the drinking comparison was a dry special junmai from Nagato Gorge by Okazaki Shuzojo.
Let's have it right away!
First day
First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the traditional sake flavor from the beautiful mouthfeel, and the bitterness and spiciness come rushing in.
However, neither the bitterness nor the spiciness are too strong, so although it does not feel dry, it is a very robust sake.
The second day
The sweetness has increased, but the sake flavor is still there.
The bitterness and pungency have weakened considerably and the image of sweetness has increased.
Day 4
From the bitterness, there is a slight sweetness and sake taste.
The base remains the same, but it has a slightly different feel.
Lukewarm
Since we're here, we also tried heating the sake.
The dryness is still the same, but you can feel the impact of the spiciness and a hint of sweetness.
And the aroma of rice wafting through the nose is also very nice.
It was another new encounter with sake that made me feel the depth of sake.
Good evening, ma-ki-!
Cool label! I've never had it so I'm curious 😊I tend to avoid dry sake but this one looks easy to drink ❣️ I'm going to try it without avoiding it 😁.
Good evening, ma-ki 😊.
Isn't that a special pure Nagato Tsuna 😳
This sake is delicious when heated ✨.
This time of year, heated sake is delicious and makes me want to drink more 😁.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃.
It's a luxury to compare the same brewery's drinks, which you can't do unless you have a chance 😆The two bottles show the difference between sweet and dry 😆The reviews are also very detailed ❣️ I see 🧐 and learned a lot 📚.
Hi, ma-ki- 😀
-5 degrees to dry sake drinking! That's an interesting range 🤗I'd like to try heated sake 🍶 Dry sake is a must drink in this winter season 😋.
Hi ma-ki-, ☀It would be interesting to compare drinks from the same brewery. ✨️ You did a great job reviewing the difference between sweet and spicy 🤤I want to try heating sake, but I only buy sweet 💦.
Thanks for your comment, Pon.
The letters are unique and have an impact. ⤴️
I think this one is more dry, but not so strong that even I could enjoy it 🎵.
You never know until you drink it 😊.
Thank you Kano for your comment.
I see you have tried Nagato Kyo 🎵.
It's really delicious with a strong taste sensation that changes when heated, and the aroma of the rice is so refreshing. ⤴️
Now is exactly the season for heated sake 😊.
Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama!
Thanks to my brother-in-law and his wife, we had a really luxurious drinking experience ✨.
I'm sorry that my impressions are not always the same 😅.
We would like to do this kind of drinking comparison once in a while 😊.
Thanks for your comments Jay & Nobby.
I did indeed swing wide, and in the beginning I had to drink water to reset it 😅.
That's right. We don't have any dry sake in our house, so I'd like to get some that would go well with heated sake😊.
Thank you Nao888 for your comment.
It was fun to compare drinks from the same brewery 🎵.
I'm sorry that my reviews are always so irreplaceable 😅.
I'd like to get some sake that would go well with heated sake since they are all sweet sake as well 😊.
This week we compared different specs of the same brewery!
This is the first sake from the same brewery!
Nagato Gorge by Okazaki Shuzojo!
The first bottle was a Junmai Ginjo SILVER!
It was given to me by my brother-in-law and his wife on New Year's Day!
Let's enjoy it right away!
The first day
First, the aroma. It has a citrusy but slightly sweet aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, it gives a sweet impression, but the mouthfeel is smooth and not too sweet.
It has a pear-like flavor.
There is not much bitterness, and the lingering aftertaste is a little spicy at the back of the throat.
It is easy to drink and delicious!
The second day
The sweetness is a little stronger and the bitterness is a little more pronounced.
The lingering aftertaste is short and smooth, and the citrus aroma lingers on the palate.
Fourth day
The sweetness and bitterness give it a more pronounced pear flavor.
I was reminded again that there are surprising encounters with sake that I might not have encountered on my own.
It was a delicious drinking time tonight too!
I remember being impressed by the delicious soy sauce and miso when I traveled to Yamaguchi Prefecture 😊This comparison of Yamaguchi's local sake sounds delicious! It's hard to find a sake with a sake level of ➖5. ‼️ sweet and bitter citrusy, I can imagine 🥰.
Hi ma-ki-😊 comparing drinks from the same brewery, that's intoxicating👍.
I prefer the SILVER one.
I've never had either of them just because ma-ki-'s review made me feel like drinking them 🤣.
Thank you for your comment, Pheho.
Memories from a trip can be enjoyed over and over again. ⤴️
It was fun to compare different sakes 🎵.
There are many delicious sakes from Yamaguchi prefecture, and I hope to drink more of them in the future 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Maru.
It was a good drinking comparison good sake activity ⤴️
It's great that you made an imaginary comparison in spite of my poor impression 😁.
I'm sure there are many other kinds of sake, I'd like to try them if I get a chance 😊.
ma-ki-San, it's nice to compare sakes from the same brewery 🥰.
Also, the sake you received is a great way to meet new people and expand! I am looking forward to your post when you try it!
Thank you for your comment, Rehma.
Yes, that's right 🎵
I'm grateful for the wide range of alcohol I can drink because many of the drinks I receive are ones I wouldn't be able to choose myself ✨.
I'll keep trying different ones 😊.
