Sweet and rich but crisp with bitterness
It is nice to compare drinks at an antenna store, isn't it?
The snacks are Aroma Box Pole, Kaga Gosai Pickles and Ancient Kombu Shimezame. This is 1000 yen!
Year-end topping. Sogen after a long time!
It is good because it has a good amount of umami and acidity, and it is nice and sharp while being pleasant to drink.
It goes well with vinegared octopus! The sourness of the vinegared octopus and the acidity of the sake are in harmony, yet each has its own flavor.
It also goes well with beef stew, which has a strong flavor.
A good standard sake for winter meals!

I purchased this sake at Sogen's store on my way back from a trip to Noto. The sake rice is also produced in Noto, so I hope to support the recovery efforts in any way I can.
It is dry but has a good flavor of rice, so I enjoyed it with Noto's delicacy "momiikka" (squid) seared on the barbecue, remembering the Noto area 😊.
Today's new sake "Sogen" from Noto Suzu City!
Tasted it and bought it because it was delicious!
The sweetness reminds me of ripe 🍌.
In the mouth, it is fruity and rich in flavor, with a strong alcohol taste and a high density.
The sweetness of the rice leaves a fluffy aftertaste that is very satisfying!
It is best served with warm soba noodles on a cold night. ✨️
Before the annual year-end party at a yakiniku restaurant, we went to FURUMAYA at the Atre station building in Kawasaki Station.
FURUMAIYA is a liquor store that sells sake from the Hokuriku and Shinetsu regions.
I had never had sake before, so I drank a lot of sake even though it was the first meeting 😅.
I will start with Sogen Nigori 😊.
I don't know about the aroma, it has a slurpy mouthfeel, seems to have lost its gas 🤔.
The umami is full, creamy and delicious... The acidity is mild and easy to drink, there is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
It was a delicious nigori sake 🥰.
The picture is our customary ritual before the yakiniku barbecue starts✨
Good morning 😃
I went to FURUMAIYA a few times when I was commuting via Kawasaki. Sometimes they have Shinshu Kamerei (I've never been able to drink it).
The meat is still very powerful, by the way! 🥩
Good morning, ichiro18!
I'm looking forward to the next Kaku-uchi before the year-end party 😋.
I've only had Sogen once in the past, but I got the impression that it was beautiful and well-balanced, but the nigori nama of the season looks delicious too 🤤.
Hi Ane 😃
I read your review of FURUMAIYA, Ane ✨It's in a station building, so it's easy to access and good for a light drink... Whenever I go to this yakiniku restaurant, I always have time for a photo of the first stack of meat to be projected 🤣.
Hi ma-ki-😃
I always go a little early and have a little drink, it's so much fun and I can't stop 🤣.
Sogen's nigori is delicious 😍I'd like to have some clear sake too 🥰Meat is so cheery when you see chunks of it.
Hi ichiro18 🐦.
Glad you can have a little drink when you have a little time 😊.
By the way, this meat 😳 is beautiful and the volume is amazing😍I imagine it must have been delicious 😆.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
Yes, I agree! I'm still grateful for the corner bar because I can easily have one drink ✨.
You have beautiful sashi in your meat 😋 It was tender and the meat was perfectly delicious ✨.
