High acidity, light flavor and alcohol with a fresh apple aroma
Fairly clean at the entrance.
Slight sweetness followed by acidity and umami, with a noticeable bitterness and alcohol on the nose.
I would like to recommend this sake to wine lovers!
Off-line meeting of Sakai bring-and-go 202511
Sake (1) brought by Umaumai-san
Umauma-Umaï-san told me in advance that it was a rare brand in Kansai and that no one else who would attend had drunk it.
So everyone is looking at the sake cups to see if anyone else is drinking it.
Wakanoi, which I think is sometimes stocked at a liquor store in Sennichimae, but I've never had it.
The sweetness is subdued and the rice flavor is strong and robust. The cloth label is unusual.
The sake level is not so high, but the impression is spicy, like sake from Tottori or Shimane. He said this one should be heated up too 😁.
La Jomon, often seen at Sake-no-wa.
Yuki said that there is a Wakanoi version of this sake, which is quite different from this one.
Last Saturday, the Sakai drinking party of the Kansai chapter of the Sake-no-Wa was held in Sakai 😀 11 people attended.
There were 11 of us in total and I will post the details later 🤣.
At the end of the party, there were a few bottles left over and we were allowed to take home whatever we wanted, so we took this bottle of Wakanoi and went home 😇.
Of course, this was my first time drinking Wakanoi 😀.
I enjoyed it slowly when I got home, and while the aroma was subdued, the taste was clean and light, with a freshness typical of nama-shu, which was new to me, but I enjoyed it 😀 I did a little research and found out that it was pressed right away, so I was able to enjoy it.
I just did some research and found out that the Haruho series is made as soon as it is pressed, aged at low temperature in a snow chamber until around March, and then shipped as a pure sake, followed by the Natsuhoho and Akihoho series, which are made by changing the heating method and shipping dates.
If I can find the rest of the series, I'd like to drink it again 😇.
Good evening, Yasube-san 🌛It sounds like a very interesting and fun meeting 🍶The best part about bringing your own sake is that you get to meet sake you've never encountered ✨I've never seen Wakanoi-san 🤤.
Hi Nao888 😀
We are all good people and it's a fun time to drink 😇
Everyone brings their own sake so that we don't have to drink the same sake 😇.
I was surprised when Shinshu Kamerei brought 4 bottles of sake 🤣.
Hi Yasbay 🐦.
Yes, it's common to have takeaways 😆 I'm surprised there aren't any 🤣.
I've never had Wakanoi, so I'm curious to know who brought it to you 😁.
Good evening, Yasube!
It's great that you continue to drink those souvenir drinks even after you've had a good time offline 😅We usually take a week off for the next week 😅
Hi Pon 😀
Unfortunately, I was so engrossed in drinking that I don't remember who brought what 🤣.
But all the drinks are great, and I'm amazed at the thought that went into bringing them so that they wouldn't be shared😇.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😀
Everyone laughed at us when we met, but me and Orin were in perfect shape after taking turmeric beforehand 🤣.
And since we left after the first meeting, we might have wanted to drink a little more 🤣.
Yamagata Purchase at Wakano-ya
Purchased when I went to Yamagata with a friend for cold meat soba noodles 💰.
Nice to meet you Wakanoi Sake Brewery!
I knew Wakanoi Sake Brewery from the sake lees pudding I got from an old man at work, but I didn't know they had a sake brewery here! So I stopped by 🛣️
The kitten cups are delicious 🍮.
The atmosphere at the sake brewery is very nice and I'll stop by again when I pass by again!
I'll stop by again!
It has a delicious mild sweetness and mouthfeel 😋.
The aroma and flavor is quite unique 🤔.
Thanks for the treat 😋.
This is a wine that is, in a sense, one of perfection: light on the palate with yeast No. 6, low sweetness, but with a deliciously sour, bitter, citrus-inspired, squeaky finish. The surprising thing is that it has a solid taste that does not get distracted by the pairing. I paired it with a tangerine and lemon tart, and it did not interfere with the sweetness of the tart, and as the name of the wine suggests, the taste buds did not waver. It is delicious.
Hello, screaming butterflies 😃.
Here is the one that is said to be the perfection! You stand so dignified 👍and I would love to have a drink of this review ‼️🤗
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! I think this is exactly what you and your wife would like 😊It's just a shame that it's not available as often as it should be 😩When you travel to Yamagata, please visit La Jomon!
It has an oaky flavor and is sweet. After that, it has a spiciness and bitterness, while leaving a fluffy sweetness that is not too harsh.
A sake with a traditional feel.
While drinking it, I looked up "windy" on the Internet. Apparently, it is best when chilled. I had left it in a heated room, but put it in the fridge for a while.
The impression rounded out and easy to drink!
And the nickname? It seems to be "puu-san". Certainly the hue w. This flavor started to feel like honey 🍯.
I'm starting to feel it's kind of a cute drink from a traditional sake. I can't believe I dance like this with information😅.
This is also a good experience🙆
Sake with a firm, robust sake flavor. The aroma was mild.
I thought it might not be my favorite sake, but when I put it in my mouth while savoring it slowly, I felt a mellow flavor and an oriented taste, and thought it was delicious.
It went well with oden.
Now, now, an excerpt from Mr. Kawashima of Sake
For the "eternal" series, we are given a special portion of the "Nakadori" of each brewer's most popular product. Moreover, the sake is bottled unfiltered and unfiltered, so it has a pure and rich flavor that can only be enjoyed at the brewery. In other words, it is a sake that has the best of both worlds.
Sake-no-Kawashima's special order products, which cannot be purchased anywhere else, are not special brews, but rather bottles of sake that best express the characteristics of each brewery, with the aim of creating high quality standard sake.
That's why it's so good😋.
