This is Amami Shinshu Junmai Ginjo Nigori Nama. It is a delicious sake with a good balance of sweetness and acidity. It was my first Tenbi 🍶 and I bought it at Saito Sake Shop in Chitose City.
It took some care to open the bottle, but there was no blowout 😐 When poured into a glass, the aroma is mild and fruity. When you drink it, it has a light sweetness and a moderate effervescence and acidity. It then recedes, leaving a tangy dryness and bitterness in the mouth. When mixed with a little bitterness, the flavor and spiciness increases and it is very good👍👍👍The moderate spiciness is a good accent and easy to drink 😋😋It will be a regular drink every year 😁Tataki bonito, radish pancake, soybean and chicken stew ◎Stewed hamburger steak ◯

Ace, good evening 😃.
I've never had snow heaven before 🥲 the label is blue, not white 😳.
I've just recently had a red Xinten and would like to taste it too 😙.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🟦.
I think it should be Blue Heaven🟦 since it's a blue label, but it's commonly known as Snow Heaven ❄️. Snow ❄️ association from nigori 🤔 fashionable 😄
Today, I recommended Amami as a nigori-aggression.
It's a little too mild for Amami, even though I drank it again.
But of course, it is still the best tasting.
Once again, I came across a great sake!
Clean sweetness.
A moderate acidity.
A bitter taste that tightens up the flavor.
Good to drink as it is.
It is also good as an in-between-dinner drink.
The bitterness of this sake seems to balance the bitterness of vegetables well.
It goes well with nabe dishes with a lot of vegetables.
The previous sake had a noticeable acidity and spiciness, so I decided to change things up... and I ended up with a sake that had a counterpart on a certain axis. It was sweet!
Bottom of the bottle, about to run out.
Pear, maybe.
Lychee-like by inclusion.
Was it gassy when opened?
Quite silky mouthfeel.
Citrusy acidity and youthful rice flavor.
A little bit of calpis and hay green flavor.
A slight aftertaste.
Taste level 3.5/5

Today, December 15, is the last full moon of the year 2024 🌝❄.
I'll be working the night shift that day, so I'll be enjoying the last [moon-viewing sake tonight] of the year while watching the almost full moon that peeked out early the night before. 🌕️🍶
We opened "Amami Shinshu Junmai Ginjo Nigori Nama".
First time drinking "Amami" at home!
This weekend, a cold wave hit and the moon, which showed its face for a short time, was gradually hidden by clouds and the weather forecast was for it to turn to snow after midnight 🌝🌨️
Now, let's start with the top
[The moon is in the sky.]
The cool and calm aroma of rice, the umami sweetness that flows smoothly through the mouth, the gas feeling on the tip of the tongue, the sweet aroma that passes through the nose and finishes with a lingering bitterness and a nice long aftertaste.
[Seasonal cup]
A cool rice aroma, a feeling of gas on the tip of the tongue, permeable umami sweetness, and a pleasantly sweet finish after the bitterness is felt.
When nigori is made by mixing orikori, the flavor becomes richer and the gaseous sensation becomes stronger, but the lingering aftertaste becomes shallower 🤔.
As the temperature rises, the flavor changes even more richly 😁.
The entrée is a cold weather delicacy [cold yellowtail belly sashimi] and the impending expiration date [horse sashimi].
The fatty cold yellowtail is still delicious 😋.
I took a peek outside after dawn, and it seems it didn't rain as much as I thought it would ☃.
Hi Jive, good evening.
Moonshine with a brief full moon is quintessential 🌕️
It looks like a good balance with the nigori bitterness of Amami and would go well with your meal 🎵.
Quintessential Amami ✨.
The fatty cold yellowtail looks delicious too😊.
Good evening, Jive 😃.
Congratulations to Amami on her first home drink ㊗️🎉!
Amazing thick slices of cold yellowtail sashimi‼️ this is going to make me want to drink more sake🍶😙I'll have to eat the horse sashimi as soon as possible😅.
Good morning, ma-ki.
It gets dark early these days, so I decided to take a chance before the clouds came out 😁.
Amami has changed with a new master brewer, but it's still as delicious as ever ✨.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
Finally got to sit down and enjoy some "Amami" at home 😁.
Fukui's cold yellowtail is of such good quality that it was sold under false pretenses of its place of origin when the catch in Himi, its home at one time, dropped 🤣.
Hi Jive 🐦.
Well, I think I saw a very beautiful moon in the morning 🤔Winter often has clouds over there 😢 but you are still a great tsukimi sake ✨and congratulations on your first home drinking Tenmei 🎉!
Hi Pon, good evening 🌛.
The cooler temperatures and cleaner air make winter astronomy more attractive than summer 😁.
It's truly a "winter moon", but the first snowfall is our priority, so we toasted with "Yukiten"✨.
A year ago Amami came out of the cellar. I don't know if it's true, but rumor has it that it's the last Mikitty.
It's still as good as it was a year ago. Maybe I forgot about it because I haven't had it recently, but was it this rich?
Noodle Harmony made me want to eat Yamaoka-ya uncontrollably.
My daughters are going to a concert tonight, so I don't have to cook dinner 🤓 Yamaoka-ya chance!
Special miso ramen with rice!
I'm not so picky that I'll go in the morning!
If I smell garlic tomorrow, it's Kino.
Good morning, Noodle Sake King. I didn't know they didn't have rahsho! I thought they were all over the country. It might be hard to get there even if you come here as a tourist, because there are so many roadside places.
I hadn't had it for a long time, but I was surprised that it was too sweet. I wondered if it was meant to be paired with sweets. I thought it would be good with sweets, so I paired it with Lindt chocolate and it was great. I was very pleased with the taste.
