My eldest daughter has moved out of the prefecture to go to college. It's a happy thing, but I feel sad, anxious...ah, blah blah blah 🤣.
Let's have a drink!
Oh, it's delicious. It has a rich, robust flavor, but not too strong. I drank it while eating curry because I was slammed 😅maybe I just have a stupid tongue 🤔.
I feel refreshed after drinking it 😊.
Good evening, Tsukitate🦉.
Thank you for your daughter's move 💦 we will miss you 😢 bear with it a little longer and when she turns 20 we can have a drink together when she comes back 😊 looking forward to it 🙏.
Good morning, tsutsumate 😃.
It's been about 8 years since I've been home 😅I know the first time my daughter lives alone is equal parts worry and loneliness 🥲 but there's also the fun of going out of state to see her and drink in a place you don't know 🤗.
Hi chikumo 😊
I thought I would be fine at first, but when I left the room I was moving into, I had this indescribable feeling 😢.
This feeling is bad for you 🤣.
Good evening, Tsutsumitate-san 🌇.
Thank you for your hard work on your daughter's move: ❗️
I also finished the first part of my move today!
Contrary to Tsukitate-san, I will be living with my eldest son 😁.
Kumamoto New Sake Festival 2024
I participated in the Kumamoto New Sake Festival held every March with my colleagues 🍶.
Drink tickets 🎫1 set of 3 tickets for 1200 yen.
One ticket is exchanged for 5 shaku of sake (two tickets for the more expensive ones).
I chose three kinds of sake: Kameman nigori sake, Taido, and Hanayuki.
The second cup was Taido.
Surprisingly sweeter than the nigori I just had 😳.
It has a nice flavor and moderate acidity that goes well with fried cartilage 👍.
Taido is consistently delicious as a food sake 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀.
Kumamoto sake has a lot of classical taste except for Hana no Koka. Taido is not flashy, but it has a delicious flavor on top 😁I also recommend a new brand called Kyuyo Masamune that came out last year👍.
I'm opening them all up because they are overstocked😅.
I couldn't buy it last year and have been waiting for a year.
The one I had at the Japanese sake festival was very subtle so I wanted to make sure 🤔.
Fresh and fizzy. It has little sweetness, but the gasiness on top of the bitterness is very nice.
I'd like to try the sake made with Kame-no-o that comes out around spring.
The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower④.
■Chiyonen Sake Brewery / "Taido" Kumamoto Pref.
Since "Taido" is the last sake every time, I tasted it this time while my memory is still vivid.
Taido Junmai Ginjo
Sour and refreshing. A little too refreshing 🤔.
Wind, Cat, and Daiginjo
At the brewer's festival, I drank "Hoshi to Neko to Junmai Daiginjo", which is also easy to drink, low alcohol and has a refreshing sweetness.
Kura-oi Daiginjo
This is a secret sake that was not on the list and is sold only at the brewery. It was sold out during the daytime, so I was not impressed by the tasting only.
Junmai Ginjo Autumn Scent Nigori Nama
A sweet and delicious sake with a slight bubbly taste, which bouken-san said was very tasty.
Good evening, Mr. Nemuchi 😃.
I was expecting a lot from Taido, so I felt a little let down 😅I was so focused on the joyful light that I forgot to buy Autumn Kaoru 🤣.
bouken, same here 😊I guess my expectations for this Taido might have been a bit higher than I expected 😅The last thing I want to buy is to get drunk and forget 🤣There's always a tasting event where you get drunk and forget 🤣.
At [SHIMA], continuing from last time
I was looking around the cellar for what to drink next when I found a bottle of "Denshogiku", which is rare in Fukui, so I had another glass.
Taido Junmai Ginjo.
The master likes this one so much that he carries it almost regularly 😊.
Sweet fruity aroma, umami, acidity, and a sweet aftertaste.
The image of the aftertaste is somewhat similar to sweet potato shochu 😁.
According to the master, he almost always recommends it to his customers, and it is rare for people to ask for it themselves 😊.
If I didn't have sake-no-wa, I wouldn't have gone through with it either😅.
Hi Gyve 😀
You're right, Kumamoto's sake tastes more like Imo Shochu 😀.
I spent my school days in Kumamoto, so I was looking for Kumamoto sake, but this sake was a no mark 😅.
I'll try to find it again!
Good morning, Gyve 😃.
I'm happy when I find a sake that I like when I go out for a drink! I'm always happy when I find a sake that I like 🤗I'm sure you have a discerning eye when you're doing the "sakewa" 😆.
Good evening, Yasube!
I was curious about "Taido" after reading a review of it on Sake-no-wa, and I never expected to find it in my hometown, Fukui 😲.
[Maybe it's my impression of Kumamoto's sake, but it was delicious 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I am amazed at the miraculous encounter in Fukui, where sake from other prefectures is rare, especially due to distribution 😲.
Your usual review walks paid off 😁.
