At a birthday party for a drinking buddy
Probably the first time to visit this brewery.
It seems to be a blend of sake yeast, yamahai and mizu-hashi.
It's not flashy and has a strong taste.
But smooth and easy to drink.
I'd like to try it heated if I have a chance.
At Sumiyoshi
Hiraccio's recommendation? I went to a U-shaped restaurant in Kawagoe, which was recommended by Mr. Hiraccio. The place is crowded with regulars. It is a good place for a quick drink.
I wanted to drink tenkasu, but I had to heat it up.
It tastes gentle.
The label on the back is poetic.
I said I could drink it quickly, but it was too long.

The aroma is yogurt.
The aroma is yogurt, then layers and layers of flavors follow 🚗💨.
It goes well with raw oysters, rape blossoms with peanuts, grilled pork tongue, and any other snacks 😆.
Next time I'll try heating it up: ‼️
Artistic label and title.
I had it cold sake.
It has a light taste with a great umami flavor.
The subtle hint of a tangy taste reminds us of history and tradition.
The color is slightly yellow🟡.
I kept them in the fridge, first cold 🍶.
It's like "rice - melon".
No, this is not a chilled sake: ❗️
So I changed to heated sake 🍶.
It's melon-based, but it has a nice astringency and depth to it, and it's pleasant to feel the range of my taste buds expand in all directions 😊.
Rice 🌾 - lychee & bitter, with a hint of wood 🌲 in the back, and the milkiness is just right, not too assertive, round 👍.
Citrus 🍊🍋 aroma too.
This drink 🍶 is definitely to be warmed up.
It was really delicious 🤤.
Smear in the memorandum 🙏.
The second one for today. Haruvia" is located in a slightly confusing place. It was my first time to visit here too.
It's a craft beer store, but they also have sake. And they have sake that is good for warming up.
The first glass of sake I had was my first "Mukai Tenjiku" (warmed sake) 🍶 It had a nice acidity to it.
Mukai Tenju is one of the first sake that impressed me the first time I drank it.
When I ordered it because I wanted to have a heated sake for my last drink, I found a rare bottle of that brand, a blend of nama-hoshimoto, yamahai, and mizu-hoshimoto.
The aroma was strong but not unpleasant, with a sharp acidity. In the mouth, the soft but present sweetness of the rice, combined with the warm temperature of the heated sake, blended with the acidity I felt at the entrance. This is so delicious!
The finish is also gentle due to the acidity that softens towards the end.
This is the kind of sake that heals you when you are tired and makes you feel relieved and at ease. Sake makes me happy.
The sharp and strong acidity that is present from the entrance to the end probably comes from mizu-hashiroshi. I have bought and drank several kinds of Bodhi Hashiro sake at Shorekiji Temple in Nara Prefecture, and was impressed by the fact that it has a stronger presence than those acids, but still blends in without destroying the overall balance of the sake.
At Nihon Shu-Tsubaki in Jujo, Tokyo.
100% "Improved Omachi" from Okuizumo is used.
Drank warmed.
The taste is very weak.
The taste is very weak, but the rice has a very strong flavor and is delicious.
