Here is a bottle I drank on Friday.
Not from Tochigi or Ibaraki, but from Gunma sake 😊Here's one from the series I've never had before! It's Sakiyami: ‼️
I heard it was sweet 🧐I wanted to try it but I hadn't gotten around to it 😅I picked it up at a liquor store and looked at the label and saw that it had a Sake degree of +3👍I thought it would be good. I thought it would be a good choice for me 🤗
I'll make love to you
The aroma is fruity 😌.
The first sip has a beautiful acidity and a hint of sweetness 😋.
According to the international J&N standard, this one was also ranked as moderately sweet, and the result was an instant kill 😁.
By the way, around noon on Monday, I received a call on my cell phone from an unknown number 🤨... Jay, who never takes such calls, left it there and forgot about it 😅.
The next Tuesday on my way home from work 🚙, while waiting at a traffic light, I suddenly remembered the incoming call 📱 and looked up the phone number on the internet and found MKT liquor store ‼️
What ‼️ was drawn a week ago Saturday 😳 seriously ⁉️
I called back in a hurry.
Congratulations!
I applied for the Shinsei lottery three times and won the Yonotori, No.6-R, and No.6-S. It was a miracle that I won all three times 🥹!
It was written that I should drink it by May, so I'll open it during GW 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄!
Oh wow ‼️ congratulations on your Shinsei win 🎉㊗️ Yonotori is delicious 😋GW has a lot to look forward to ❣️ Sakiyami is also dry but if it's fresh and juicy, I wonder if it's good for me too 🧐.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I don't have much experience with Gunma's sake, but I imagine there are a variety of delicious drinks ✨.
And I'm so jealous that you won three times 😋.
I'm looking forward to opening it now 😊.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 🌛I've been waiting for the ❣️ series I've never had ☺️ I can't read the brand name again🤣 but it looks delicious 🤤and congratulations on winning the Shinsei 🥳MKT Sake Shop number please register him 🤙.
Good evening, Dr. Jay & Dr. Nobby♪
The standard from now on is still the international J&N standard ❣️
I'm curious about Gunma's umamai🍶🥹.
Shinsei-sama is also a winner 🎯 and that's great 💕!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
I'm a sucker for sweet drinks so you're more than welcome 😁.
Congratulations on winning No.6 ㊗️
I have home drinking envy 😙.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
A series I've never had before, this time Gunma sake!
Tochigi, Ibaraki and Gunma are good friends and neighbors⁉😅😅.
100% chance of winning the new political party is great 👏.
You may be able to run for political office as a new political party⁉🤭.
Jay & Nobby Good evening! Good series you've never had 😄The sake level is just for reference! I'm glad you were able to break through the standards (lol) and congrats on winning the Shinsei ✨3/3 jealous!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
Sakiyami, I like this sake too, but I'm glad to hear that you two who like dry sake also liked it.
Even if it's sweet and tasty, it gives a different impression if it has a firmness and a sharpness of acidity😇.
Jay & Nobby, good evening😊and congratulations ㊗️🎉🎉🎉No.6 good 🤣I'm jealous 🥳Sakuyami, you've never had this drink - I'd like to try it 😊it looks delicious😁.
Jay & Nobby, ㊗️ consecutive winners indeed 👏Sakuyami, it looks delicious 🤤I'll check it out as I've never encountered this drink 👍International J&N standards, I bet you two are in agreement with your assessment 😍.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good morning... ♪
Oh wow! Congratulations on winning the 3 Niimasa 🎉I'm looking forward to opening the bottle😍This Sakiyami label is a nice, calm, springtime label 😘.
Hello Jay & Nobby ^_^
I've never tried this series, I'd like to try this sake too.
Well, you have it in you to win Shinsei 3 times ✨.
Can't wait for GW 😊.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 😃.
Congratulations on your three winners: ‼️㊗️🎉
I guess I'll have to worry about the timing and order of opening the bottle 😃.
Sakiyami, you have cleared the international J&N standards.
We would like to bring you along when we come across you 😃.
Hi Nao888😃
I've been wanting to have a drink for a while 😋 "Sakuyabi"! Even if you can't read it, it's still delicious 🤗Yes, I registered my number as soon as I could👍.
Hi N.E. 😃
Yes, we are! The three prefectures in northern Kanto get along well with each other 😉 It's not that Tochigi is looking up to us by any means 😏If I were to leave, I'd probably go with the Senkou party 🤗.
Hi Sashiu 😃
I think the series of never drank before will continue for a while 🤗You're right, the sake level is just a guide 😅I'm looking forward to the 4/4!
Hi Koizo 😃
I'm not a lottery lucky person 🥲 but I seem to have only luck with new politics👍 so yes! It's so moist and serene amidst all the glitz and glamour 🤗.
Hi shinsaku3😃
Thank you 😊I'm thinking about having a drink with my kids at GW 😙 or is it too good to be true 🤔😁.
Yes, I'm thinking about it 😁! If you come across it, please visit ‼️ it's just right 😋 I think you'll both like it 🤗.
Jay & Nobby, here too 😄♪
Wow ❣️Congratulations on winning No. 6 🎯🎉!
You and MKT Brewery are a perfect match 😆🙌
I'm looking forward to seeing when you're going to open it... ☺️ ♫
Sakiyami, I'd love to drink it sometime 😋.
Jay & Nobby, congratulations on your belated win 🎉🎉🎉!
Three times in a row, and No. 6! That's great 😳R to S is also a nice touch 😉👍Next up is finally X!
Good evening Pon, thank you 😃😊.
I'm having good luck with the new politics for the first of the year👍Yes! It's good that you're not covered 🤗Next year X, let's see if we can make it 😁.
Sakiyami Junmai Ginjo Naokumi-Arabashiri.
Purchased at Takahashi Yo Shoten ¥1,870-.
I have had some sake from Takamusume Sake Brewery, but this is my first time drinking their brand.
The pink label is a nice spring color.
It has a gorgeous aroma with a calm sweetness, acidity, and a slight gaseous taste.
It was another delicious sake with a taste that I really liked.
🎶It will be spring soon.
The labels are spring-like: ☘️
I can feel the season by the label!
Must be a sake fan's nature😅
Not a seasonal sake, but I selected Sakiyami with a cherry blossom colored label!
I found a light nigori and bought it immediately 😁.
Yopa Memo
The cork didn't blow out, but it's very shrizzy and carbonated.
I like it.
Melon or grapefruit.
Cider without sweetener
It's crisp and refreshing!
Beautiful sake, I think again 🙂.
It's still delicious 😋😋😋😋😋😋.
Thank you for the food 🎶🎶.
Sakiyami's premium Junmai Daiginjo
Brewed with 35% polished Yamadanishiki rice
Fluffy and refreshing aroma.
It flows smoothly with a moderate sweetness and umami flavor.
I finally got the Sakiyami I was interested in😊.
It's quite gassy! It's very rough 🤣.
It's easy to drink with the acidity with a delicious flavor at the core, but not too light.
It was delicious 😆 Thank you for the food!
I received a bottle of Sakiyami from my hometown sake brewery, Takamusume Sake Brewery.
Ever since I was a child, Takamusume has been the sake of choice. It was only last year that I learned that Takamusume was making such a delicious sake.
The last two bottles were straight-draft Arabashiri, but this time there was a light nigori that I had been curious about, so I chose it without hesitation.
When I opened the bottle, I felt the cork being pushed up as if it was being opened with caution. When the bottle is slowly turned over, the lees dance like a snow globe.
Bubbles rose from the lees, and when the bottle was opened again, the gas leaked out energetically.
As usual, it is gassy and fresh to the taste. The taste seems to be sweeter than the Arabashiri. It is so easy to drink that it is hard to believe that the alcohol content is 16%, and it is so delicious that it is easy to drink too much.
Takamusume Sake Brewery is not a very big brewery, so they probably don't make a lot of sake. There are only a few liquor stores in Tokyo that carry this sake, so opportunities to see it are limited, but I think it is a sake that deserves more attention, even if I discount the favoritism of my hometown.
The fifth bottle in this season's nigori quota is the highly anticipated "Sakiyami"!
I was looking forward to opening this bottle because it is sure to be fresh and crisp👍.
Automatic opening 🎆.
When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was like apples and white peaches.
The mouthfeel is silky smooth and gassy and fresh.
It is clear and fresh, with a light acidity that makes it refreshing. It has a fruity taste with a hint of sweetness and astringency, like apples, peaches, and melons!
It is not too assertive and disappears quickly, and it has a pleasant throat feel, so you can't help but drink too much of it ✨.
Punchy "Sei Yong
Fresh "Sakiyami
Akagisan" of purity
A supreme moment with the Gunma trio. Winter is almost over. ☃️
