Sake Expo 2025 SAKE EXPO10 A sales person who visited Icoma Sake Shop last year was there. We drank Josen Honjozo I already drink it at home, but they said it can also be heated, so we compared cold and heated sake! At home I drink it at room temperature, but it doesn't change much at any temperature, so I guess it's versatile? Matsu no Hana Junmai Sake Classic but easy to drink Shiboritate Honjozo Nama Sake I drank this at home a while ago and compared cold sake and heated sake. Surprisingly, the heated sake tasted better! Honjozo Nama-no-Harazake This one was quite robust, but had a delicious flavor. Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake I've bought and drank this in the past, but I tasted this one too. I was not as impressed with this one as some of the others I drank this time. Junmai Nama-nihonjyu Shiboritate Light Nigori I forgot to take a picture💦The label has changed, but it looks like I've had this one in the past. A little spicy? Matsu no Hana Junmai Ginjo Well, it tasted a little off-flavored and the taste was subtle... Matsunohana Daiginjo Fujiki Forgot to take a picture💦. Yamadanishiki with a 40% polished rice ratio. The taste is a little different from the others, probably because the rice is different. Tamakae is not suitable for high milling because it tends to crack when polished, so it seems to be Yamada-Nishiki. The salesman was very interesting and unique.

Buy it at Yamaya, which has a larger selection of pine flowers than other stores, because of its retro labels. I think this is the first time I've seen Matsu-no-Hana Honjozo! It has a good balance of clear but not too sweet and not too spicy. Easy to drink. I would also like to tell you that it is very cost-effective at less than 1,000 yen, including tax! I must try heated sake while the temperature is not too high. If you chill it too much, you can feel the smell a little.

pine blossom Nama sake aroma. Dry taste. Tongue feels a little numb. Good acidity. The palate is refreshed. It is so-so delicious. But then it was empty. It is easy to drink. Purchased at a sake brewery. Takashima City on the west side of Lake Biwa. They have started producing whiskey in recent years, and although it is still in barrels, it will finally be released next year. The timing was good and I was allowed to enter the whisky warehouse. It was a nice aroma of the barrels. Photos are not for social networking. I guess he is a Noto Touji.

I saw it at Ya-Ya and bought it because I had never had it before. It's sweet and easy to drink for its strength, but it tastes strange, like an off-flavor... It tastes like herbs and medicinal herbs. Jun Dai and Ginjo were good 🤔.

It's tough. It has a delicious flavor, a sense of maturity, and a smoky aroma, so rather than pairing it with food, it's better to sip it like whiskey. It does not go well with sashimi. Maybe it would go well with crab innards?

This time it is Matsu-no-hana Shiboritate Usu-nigori. This sake is from Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture. This New Year's Eve, we will be drinking Matsu-no-hana. I mean, it's not that, I had a chance to meet a sales person of Matsunohana the other day. I had a chance to meet a sales person of Matsunohana the other day and We had a lot of fun talking about our hometown, I reflected on the fact that I had not uploaded any of my local sake I was reminded that I had not uploaded any of my stories on Sake-no-wa, I went to the brewery to buy some sake. This area is called "Harie Ikusui no Sato," which means "the home of fresh water" in Japanese. where melted snow from the Hira Mountains gushes forth in abundance. Furoizumi is also nearby. Furozumi is also nearby. Finally, I've conquered Kosai's 5 breweries 🍶✨. The color is slightly cloudy. The first aroma is of fresh yellow peach. aroma of fresh yellow peach. Smooth mouthfeel. The juicy taste of fresh yellow peaches is followed by a crisp acidity and a good bitterness, which finishes lightly while retaining the umami of the rice. The contrast between the powerful juicy flavor and lightness enhances the freshness and is delicious! Local dish, Koikomabushi, a carp sashimi. covered with salted boiled fish roe and served with vinegared miso. A dish unique to Lake Biwa and the happiness of and the happiness of tasting it. Takashima is an area where it often rains. On New Year's Eve, the sun shone through the rain I saw a big rainbow over Lake Biwa on New Year's Eve. Next year will surely be a good year too! I wish you all a happy new year 😊.

This is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake with quite a high alcohol content. The color is also dark! It goes in easily, but has a strong umami flavor. I think it is a good match for a popular izakaya (Japanese-style bar). Polishing ratio 60 Rice used: 100% Tamakae Alcohol content 19
