After a business meeting in Jimbocho, I discovered a liquor store from a solitary, gourmet-like stroll and this was the first thing that caught my eye as I wandered into the store. I was surprised to see no Yamori, so I immediately decided to buy it.
As I was paying at the cash register, I noticed the 2025/3 imprinted on the bottle and took it home with subtle regret, thinking, "It's been a long time..." It was fire-aged, but fresh.
It is fresh even though it is fire-aged. The aroma is beautiful, slightly apple-y, and delicious.
I looked in the cold storage and found two more things I hadn't drunk.
Tokyo and Niigata
First of all, a house-keeper!
I thought it was the same gray label as the one I drank at the "No Ie" restaurant, but it wasn't!
This one is easy to drink, too!
Easy to drink!
The taste is a little spicy!
Ramen noodles were served to finish the meal...
Let's call it a night!

That one is spicy! The aroma is fruity! It's also clear, is that sharp and spicy? Maybe it's bitter at the end!
I went back to compare 4 different kinds!
It's mellow, but it's not as clean as Kurakusei..!
It's been a while since I've had Yamori, but this time I had the hi-ire Omachi 🍶 It has a deeper flavor than the raw version, with a fresh taste with a touch of petit gas.
It seems to be hiyaoroshi though it is not written on the bottle.
The aroma is surprisingly gorgeous with a sense of maturity. It is very good with a rich umami and a moderate spiciness.
This is my first Tokyo sake. The aroma is slightly pear-like. Clear and colorless, with a slight gassy feeling. Sweetness comes first. It looks like something, but I can't remember what it is.
It contains raw Akutobata fish.
I decided to have lunch, attracted by the "raw akuto fish in it".
It was just after the lunch break, so I asked for yamori without hesitation.
The aroma, rich flavor, and acidity of the fresh fruit in the middle seemed to reset the rich flavor and oiliness of the Akuto fish, and I finished the dish.
It was an unexpectedly wonderful lunch 😊.
Hi Lutertemi 😀
What a lovely lunch 😀.
It's a wonderful combination for lunch😇
The combination looks delicious with the strong flavor of the yamori, which is not overshadowed by the fall fish umami 😀.
Good evening, Yasubey 😁.
Freshly grilled autumn fish, "Mr. Yaasubeyesan",
It was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating it with chopsticks. There were a lot of old men around, but I don't care now 😋.
