I went to Nara at the end of November to enjoy the autumn leaves.
It was the first time to see the autumn leaves in Kansai in 3 years!
Afterwards, we stopped by a department store and bought some sake!
This is the first time to drink Yamatsuru at home!
Cold sake!
Aroma of citrus fruits, image of pineapple with only sourness
Refreshing yet somewhat broad mouthfeel
The characteristic acidity brings the whole flavor together
Pairs well with chicken dishes and teriyaki
At last! At last, Nara sake complete! The last one was 100㏄.
It was a very impressive drink. However, one of the chopsticks is bent in a bow.... It has been bothering me for a while. My consciousness is pulled in that direction. Very hard to grasp lol.
Also. There is no aroma. It tastes neither fruity nor sake-like. It is easy to drink and delicious.
Yamatsuru-san, I was actually looking for a sake called "Nagaya-ou," which is a recreation of a 1300 year old sake. After all, it's not easy to find!
Nakamoto Sake Brewery offers a sake brewery makamakai lunch by reservation only. I would like to visit there someday.
This time, I had a chance to taste Nara sake from all 29 breweries! Thanks to Umashu-san, Nara Izumi Yusai-san, and Kintetsu Railway for making this possible. Thank you very much!
I am glad that I was able to accomplish this before the end of the year!
I love Nara sake!
In a post a little while ago, I wrote that the water in Kaze no Mori was ultra-soft water. It's actually super-hard water. I am ashamed.... Here is the correction!
Good morning, Pekkaaru-san. Congratulations on completing the Nara Sake collection 🎉 Nara Prefecture has 3 times as much sake as Kumamoto, which is great. I've only had 6 breweries in Nara, but they are all delicious 😊.
Good morning, Pekkaaru!
Congratulations on conquering all the breweries in Nara Prefecture🎉!
You have been saying this for a long time and it's really great that you have done what you said you would do 😲.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your great action and sake activities 🤗.
Pekkar, congrats on the Nara Sake comp ㊗️ Nara is only sold in Ibaraki by a popular sake brewery so I've hardly ever had it 😆 What prefecture is next 🤣?
Congratulations to Pekkaal for completing the Nara Sake 🎉🎊!
There are 29 breweries 😳I didn't know about many breweries in Kansai 💦Please keep up your love for Nara Sake 😆👍!
Thank you, AAJI! I'm a three-day person in everything. Thanks to everyone at Sake-no-wa, I was able to complete it successfully! I would love to have a drink of sansho!
Thank you, Manachie! Local sake is so interesting!
I have never seen Morishima sold here! I am envious.
Next time, a tour of Nara sake breweries sounds like fun~!
Thank you, Pon! I'm glad to hear that! Just when I became aware of the conquest, I thought, "Isn't it already out of production?" There was a warehouse that said "No more production? I was able to get it just in time, but it was no longer available at the store yesterday. I will miss you!
Congratulations to Pekkar for completing the Nara Sake Complete ㊗️🎉!
I can feel the sense of accomplishment from your comment 😆 It's interesting to meet different kinds of sake when you follow some theme 😁 I'm slowly waiting for the next challenge to start 😆.
Thank you, Mimuro-senpai! This complete was saved by the fact that there was a store specializing in Nara sake. And Hiro-san's "west to east" sake activities were very inspiring!
Congratulations to Pekkar for conquering all Nara breweries🍶㊗️🎉🎊
It's no exaggeration to say that Umashu-san is the place to drink all Nara sake. ☺️I used to frequent this place a lot in the past, so I miss it 🤤.
Let's love Nara sake more and more from now on 🥰!
Pekkaaru-san Nara sake comps are amazing😍.
I don't have enough sake from the Kansai area. I only drink the famous ones, so I always use them as a reference.
Hi Pekka Ru I will buy a bottle of Sanzo as soon as I can find the release date on the installer or something. Even liquor stores only sell one bottle at a fixed price. I have a stock of it in my fridge for myself, so if you need it, I can buy some next time and send it to you.
Hello, AAJI!
I am very happy to hear your kindness! There is a liquor store in Osaka that Yasube-san told me about before. I am planning to visit there next year!
Mr. Peckerle Yes, I understand. I think you can buy it if you just pay attention to the release date. My favorite liquor store has been gone from their store shelves for about a week.
Good evening, Mr. Pekkaaru. This is the website of Hana-no-Kou Sake Brewery. Don't miss the nationwide simultaneous sales. https://www.hananoka.co.jp/news/
Good evening, AAJI! Thanks for the really nice information! I looked it up on the internet. It is quite an expensive liquor.... I may not be able to afford it with my allowance (sweat).
Mr. Pekka Ru The regular price is less than 4,000 yen, although it is listed at 10,000 yen or so on the Internet. Recently, the price was raised significantly, so Hana-no-Koban went from 1,650 yen to about 2,150 yen. Please look up "list price" on the Internet.
Hi, Peckerl 😀
I see you know Umasshu as well, Petskar 😀.
I haven't been there recently either, but I have a silver stamp card 😀.
I need to collect more soon😇
Hello, Yasube-san! I am very much indebted to Mr. Umashu. That refrigerator is a sight to see, isn't it?
There are so many Nara sake lined up that I want to use it as a standby screen (lol).
I would like to collect stamps too!

My first Yamatsuru.
No junmai daiginjo feel, quite austere impression.
I think it would fit if it was called Junmai-shu.
I think it would be more gorgeous if it were heated up a bit.
Slightly old-fashioned, but tasty.
Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store Uehonmachi at the end of the year as part of a tasting. It has sweetness, richness, and a clean aftertaste. It was very tasty.
Drinking with members of "Kansai Sake-no-wa" in "Unagidani" on a business trip to Osaka (5)
［We opened the "Summer Sake Set" and Uma Uma Uma and Aladdin finished their drinks, so we decided to order the sake we liked.
I forgot to take a picture of the cellar, but there were rare bottles of "Kuroryu" and "Shinmasa", and although the prices are expensive, it's great that even first-timers can drink ✨.
The top 3 bottles of "Kuroryu" were "Ishitaya", "Nizaemon", and "Shizuku", which are hard to find even in the local area.
My first Yamatsuru 🎉!
Yamatsuru Junmai Ginjo
I was attracted by the label that said "dry with a difference in taste" after a series of sweet and refreshing sakes, so I chose this one 🧐.
Aroma of mellow rice, fresh, soft and smooth taste, and a gentle aftertaste.
［Although it claims to be dry, it is easy to drink with a soft mouthfeel and lingering aftertaste 😁.
