I went to the liquor store because there was some sake I wanted, despite the fact that it was stocked in the fridge.
After confirming that the sake I wanted was also in the store, I went around the store as usual. I should just buy what I wanted, but I can't do this. It is a saga of a drinker.
Then, there was a brand of sake that I had been curious about for a while.
I am not fond of sake from Kanagawa because of its hard quality, but there was the desired sake, so I gave it a try.
As is typical of nama-shu, there was a hint of ginjo aroma. Even so, I was still 80% anxious.
But the aroma did not betray me. It seems to have a good balance of the five tastes. Everything is united and spreads in the mouth. Toward the end, the dry taste comes in and finishes it off.
The dry taste comes in the last stage and finishes it off.
I paired it with stewed pork, and it was quite good.
I was betrayed in a different way.
Next time, I would like to try a standard sake.
Here we come again this year 🙌
Sagamihara✖️Yamada Nishiki‼️🙌
From President Ohbuchi...
Spicy 😵 and...
This year it's alky and spicy...
I'm going to let it sit for a while with some air in it.
I drank it, and he chose another sake to replace it.
And now...
What's up with that?
It's spicy... ❗️ but...
Spicy, sweet, delicious...
Try the hot sake...
The boss says he's too young to drink hot sake...
It's true... it's very spicy.
But when the temperature goes down, the sweetness comes out...
and then it goes back to normal.
It's an interesting sake 🍶.
I will have some sake from my hometown, Sagamihara.
This sake is from Sagamihara, a region in the mountains near Sagami Lake and Yamanashi, where nature is abundant (called the Tsukui area).
The aroma has a dignified, mature rice flavor and a crisp, fruity sweetness with a hint of pear.
In the mouth, there is a modest but soft and fluffy rice flavor, a slightly astringent koji flavor and acidity, followed by a gradual bitterness that rises.
When swallowed, it has a sharp sharp taste with acidity and an exhilarating finish.
A pleasant bitterness lingers in the aftertaste.
Overall, the balance is very good, and the sharpness is perfect, making it an ideal dry sake.
It is a wonderfully delicious sake!
Calm sea
Slight aroma, smooth attack. The taste is soft and delicious. It goes in smoothly and has a full-bodied aftertaste.
The accompaniment is a chicken breast with a chicken breast.
The richness of the sake goes well with the richness of the hen. It goes well together 🤣.
At our usual restaurant
While having cod sprout tempura
We will have local Sagaminada.
It is a delicious sake with a fruity taste, from the initial sweetness to the dryness
The taste is sweet at first, then dry, then sour, then delicious. 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
Polishing ratio 50%, 16% alc.
A local sake from Kanagawa. The deliciousness of Yamada-Nishiki explodes. The aroma is high and the flavor is full after drinking. This sake is highly recommended.
Sagaminada Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake, Dry, 1480 yen (4-pack bottle)
Expo Osaka 🤣The prices of business hotels have gone up considerably due to the Expo, and the place we usually stay is out of our budget 🥶 so we decided to stay in a different city, and as always there are good liquor stores in every city ❗️ ✨
Tonight we're taking this one home 😊.
Today's snacks were hinepon, chilled tofu and salad🥗.
The aroma is a nice sweet aroma💜The initial attack is a strong sweetness, followed immediately by a strong bitterness and spiciness, with a lingering spiciness that lingers for a long time. I guess this spicy bitter taste is a bit habitual 🤔.
