During a business trip to Akita (8)
Snow Kayasha Yamahai Junmai
→I forgot to take a picture of outside drinking, so I borrowed it.

Good evening 😃
I was looking forward to drinking out in Akita on a business trip 😆.
I forgot to take a picture and my memory of what I drank has faded 💦.
I remember the first one I had, the Snow Kayasha Yamahai Junmai, perfectly: ❗️
I don't remember much about the taste but it didn't taste too much like Yamahai, it was refreshing and had a bit of richness and acidity.......................no luck 😔.
All I remember is that it was delicious😅
Another one I bought at the supermarket...
The brand name and green label caught my attention and I picked it up when I noticed it lol.
And it was also a high quality sake with a good balance of tasty acidity and sharpness 😋.
I think it was about 400 yen... I think it was about 400 yen...
Reasonable price for 4 one-cup bottles, and all delicious ❗️
Akita is a great place for sake drinkers❗️Saiko❗️
Akita Business Trip (7) (Resumption)
Back to Akita after the Obon holidays...
Three weeks long course................................................exhausted 😮💨
Various things happened during my business trip...
The road in front of the hotel was flooded by heavy rain. ❗️
My colleague saw a bear ❗️
And beautiful sake❗️
And so on and so on!
Work was... tough, but I'd like to forget it, so I'll leave it out.
Summer in Akita... the air was fresh and comfortable.
The mornings and evenings were so cool that I didn't need air conditioning.
Here's the first thing!
Bishu Blossoming in the hotel room!
100% Akita Komachi
Let's see...
Gentle and watery on the palate.
After a while, it has a gentle sweetness and umami.
Elegant and easy to drink!
I would recommend drinking it on its own while relaxing in the evening breeze.
I got this at a nearby supermarket.
You can pop in and enjoy all the delicious and reasonably priced sakes!
Akita sake is really amazing ❗️
We are happy to have found good sake again 😊.
More to come on my Akita business trip 😃.
Hello, Shin-kun 😃.
Were you in Akita again? Three weeks is a long time ‼️ and you had a lot of ☔️🐻🍶 😅
Of course I'd rather meet a good sake than a bear 😆.
I'm looking forward to your delicious sake series in Akita 👋
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃I was there again, sake delicious prefecture ❗️ no, no, Akita prefecture 😅I was also in Akita prefecture 😅Watch out for bears 🐻 but I was still active in sake 😊 Please check out my Akita sake post again when you are free 😊.
Bishu Ranman. I bought this in Kakunodate, Akita. The explanation was that it is only available locally, but I don't think you can find this label in the Kanto region. It is beautiful and light. It is easy to drink. It has a good flavor and a bit of bitterness. The bitterness is a little characteristic. It is unique and delicious. I like it!
Good morning, Breadfan!
Kakunodate is a place I remember stopping by on my honeymoon✨.
I have the impression that Akita has a lot of really great sake 🎵.
I don't see many sake from Akita Meinoho, but I'm intrigued 😊.
Thank you for your comment, ma-ki. It is wonderful that you stopped by Kakunodate on your honeymoon. Kakunodate is a nice place, isn't it? We only had a short stopover there this time, so we would love to go back.
I enjoyed reading ma-ki's report on Akita sake. Let's enjoy sake together!
Slightly sweet with a light sizzling flavor.
It is refreshing and leaves no aftertaste.
Delicious!
Moreover, I think the price of "HARAMAN" sake is very cheap!
I can drink this taste at this price... it's good!
At the Japanese Sake Festival
It has a sweet-tart flavor with a dumpling feel, a light oli like rice flour, and a lactic acid beverage-like flavor with a slight alcohol taste...but it's not the same as the sweet and sour taste of Sanuki Kuraudai.
It is classified as a liqueur due to the addition of sugar. It was a bit sweet, so I drank it lightly on the rocks 😚.
Good evening, T.KISO 🐥.
I missed T.KISO's review of Seoto 🫢I wish I could have tried Calpis Soda... 😫The manufacturer's website also recommends Seoto Sour! You know what you're talking about!
This sake was given to me as a reward for volunteering at the Japanese Sake Festival.
I was a little happy to receive this sake because it reminded me of my wife, Kaorin 😇.
I tasted it at the Japanese Sake Festival and Kaorin and I both loved the aroma of it 😀.
We felt lucky to receive this sake as a reward 😇.
This aroma is not a fruit but a flower...the pink label reminds me of cherry blossoms, but it's not cherry blossoms, but it's a nice aroma 😀.
I thought it was sweet and tasty on the palate... but then came the tight and dry strength, which was a surprise. ‼️
It was the complete opposite of the Koshino Oni we had earlier, sweet and umami, and then boom, strength 🤣.
Sake is really a wonderful and tasty drink with many surprises 😇
Hi Yasbay 🐦.
Gorgeous label and is the fragrance floral too? It really fits Kaorin perfectly ❣️ It was a wonderful sake treat 😊.
I'm surprised there are still so many sakes I've never seen 😳
Good evening, Pon 😀
The name of the sake is perfect for Kaorin, but I'm not sure if it's gorgeous or not... 🤣
Every time I go to a sake festival, I discover something new and I feel the depth of sake 😀.
Hi Yasbay 😃
The label looks like it smells like spring 😌... and I think I'll be able to tolerate the bakuhatsu💥 type 😆.
I guess I'll be like 'Kaorin Ran Ran Ran😊' when I drink it.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀.
This sake was perfect for a spring sake festival, not a summer sake festival 🤣.
It was a much more gorgeous seasonal sake than Kaorin😇
Limited quantity production.
100% Akita-born "Momota" rice suitable for sake brewing is used.
Junmai but with a ginjo-like aroma and mouthfeel.
The fine effervescence makes this sake suitable for summer.
Mild acidity and full-bodied flavor with a favorable aftertaste.
It is a blissful moment to quietly enjoy your favorite sake.
Scoring: ☆☆☆☆
Blazing Summer Nigori: ❣️
I was wondering if I should give it to Sake no Wa since its genre is liqueur 🤔💭...
Well, ok🙆♂️ lol
Calpis type of lactic acidity with a mild aroma 😆.
The mouthfeel is light, with a delicious and full-bodied sweetness 💕.
It tastes exactly like calpis, and when mixed with carbonated water, it's almost like a calpis soda 🫧(lol)
It has a strong flavor in the base and is very drinkable🎶.
I recommend drinking it with carbonated soda most ✨.
Good evening, Director T.KISO 🆗.
I'm sure it's a liqueur too 😄.
It's perfect for this time of the year and I'd like to drink it ❣️
I love it with carbonation 😆👍
Good evening, Mr. Muro😄.
I thought it was a regular sake because of the sugar in the sake 😅.
But it's a liqueur 😅
What is the difference between sake and liqueur💦?
Well, I enjoyed it as an adult calpis soda 🫧, so it's OK🙆♂️ 🎶.
The 11th Annual Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower
I was annoyed by the heated sake corner with all the heated sake in the middle of the hot weather!
Junmai Sake Moein
Very light and mildly delicious!
Slightly acidic, herbal and refreshing.
It becomes much sweeter when heated.
Junmai sake for summer
Very light on the palate, but full of flavor.
Slightly acidic when heated.
Honjozo Shiboritate Kura-oi
High in alcohol content with a thickening effect.
The sweetness comes out quite well when heated, but as expected, it's a bit rich.
Good evening.
I can't do volunteer work surrounded by that much alcohol.
I would have to be paid a lot of money to do that.
We are amazed at the mental strength of the staff.
I bought it at Chutaro Ogawa Shoten in Yuzawa when it was snowing.
Now it is summer.
It has the gorgeousness typical of Akita sake and a firm aftertaste.
It is refreshing and good for summer.
