Neither my brother nor my parents drink much alcohol.
When I go back to my hometown, the extra alcohol I have is what I drink for dinner 😄.
This is a sake that my brother got from his friend.
It was delicious and easy to match with meals.
Rice from years with a ☆ mark, which indicates good rice production
At first you think it's easy to drink, but then it seems to get heavier and heavier.
The knob is a Brikama ♪
Niigata Sake no Jin 2025!
Neji Otokoyama from the Watanabe Sake Brewery in DOMAINE WATANABE, Itoigawa!
At the sake camp, there are paid tables and free tables, and as I wanted to spare some time to sit and visit the breweries, the free tables were enough for me. It is fun to take a break and drink your purchased sake while sharing sake with people you don't know sitting nearby and making new friends.
Here is a bottle given to me by the lovely ladies next to me who had come from far away.
When I returned home, I found it in my backpack 🤣𐤔𐤔It had been snuck by someone when I was cleaning up on the way home.
It has a rich, full flavor,
It has a rich, full flavor with just the right amount of astringency and a clean, dry taste,
It is delicious!
The gap between the sweet and fruity sake is also nice, and once again, I was reminded how delicious sake is. It is also good heated!
Today we received a bottle of Otokoyama Yamahai brew.
Moreover, it is from a good year for rice production, marked with ☆.
The taste is completely different from Junmai Daiginjo.
It is rich and spicy, but not harsh.
This time it is wine🍷.
I would like to say, the label looks like a wine etiquette.
There is no way I can buy such fashionable sake by myself, it is a hanpukai sake.
It tastes exactly like sake 😆.
It is a blend of three different types of sake, including Gohyakumangoku and Koshitanrei.
It is a light and dry sake that cuts cleanly and crisply, typical of Niigata sake.
It also has a sweet taste if you try to catch it properly.
It is a bottle with a label like this that goes well with Japanese food.
Good morning, Maru 😀
I was surprised when I saw the label 😀.
I am hesitating when to open the bottle because it is just dry 🤣.
I'm going to enjoy Maru-san's post 😇
Good morning, Maru-brother ☀I remember drinking Nechiozan aged sake and being impressed by its beauty. The label is also very stylish and not like Niigata sake 😊.
Good evening, Yasube!
This wine is dry but not that dry and goes well with Japanese food 🙆🙆It doesn't match the label.
I'm sorry to lose my hanpukai friends, but I will continue to do my best with my hanpukai posts!
Good evening, Miss Peco😊.
I can only imagine what the aged sake of this would taste like. I feel that dry sake is more impressive when aged than sweet sake.
I would love to drink it 😋.
One of the Otokoyama drinking comparison sets.
My wife says it is refreshing for an Otokoyama, but my impression is that it is still quite spicy for me.
It has a complex taste with umami, sourness, and sweetness.
It is a solid man's sake.
It has been a little while since the bottle was opened, so the flavor has changed and it has become more rounded.
At first it was very heavy, but now it is easy to drink.
It is a good sake that can be drunk in a relaxed manner.
The alcohol content is 15% and the rice polishing ratio is 15%.
Drunk and blah blah blah!
Neti man! And I drank just for the fun of it!
It is quite refreshing and dry!
Just the right sake to finish off the meal.
They were drying the dried squid outside 🐱.
It was a popular restaurant and looked busy, but it was a good place to eat!
