Kitayasu Jozo Junmai-shu, Omachi-city, Nagano, Japan
As the name suggests, it is a junmai sake recommended for heating sake.
First, as it is, it is delicious, but a little hard. The aroma and sweetness spread softly, and it turned into a different sake. It is a junmai sake with a gentle flavor.

The Beian Daigoku I mentioned before on this site was a very sweet sake with a sake strength of -23 and an acidity of 3, so the acidity was effective and the sweetness was not so strong.
This time, the sake is much different, with a sake strength of -5 and an acidity of 1.8.
So, what kind of sake is it?
It doesn't have that much aroma.
It is sweet, but the acidity is moderate!
I think this Beian Daigoku sake is characterized by sweetness and acidity.
I have a feeling that this Beian Daikoku sake is characterized by "sweetness X acidity".
I will check it out in the future. ‼️

A relatively full-bodied, rich and mellow Hokian Okuni, while a light, dry sake.
Not too refreshing, and the miscellaneous flavors you feel afterward become umami in a good way.
It is a different lineage from Hokian Okuni, but it is a delicious sake in its own right.
The third glass is a local sake from Shinano-Omachi.
It has a catchy label and tastes mild and sweet 🙆♂️
I thought it had an alcoholic taste, but maybe that's because I've had Niimasa and Jyushiyo before lol.
Of course it was a good sake.
A cup of sake in Ina, Nagano, Japan (^^)

Delicious 😋!
It is a sake with good flavor, acidity and sharpness 🍶.
Thank you for the drink 🙏🙏.

Little aroma. No strange aroma at all. You can feel apple in the depths. Smooth on the palate. Moderate sweetness, refreshing. Umami. A little bitterness at the end. Delicious.
Made from Omachi Yamae Nishiki.
This is the one we drank last month at the North Alps drinking event and enjoyed it very much. I wanted to drink it slowly, so I bought it. It is a limited edition.
Nice to meet you Beian Daikoku 🍶.
This will be the last sake I drank on the sake go-around day, even though it is a non-participating restaurant.
The first aroma is sweet with a hint of acidity.
The first sip has a sweet aroma with a hint of acidity and a mild sweetness.
We also drank Mutabu and Daisetsukei (3rd and 4th photos), but I think they were probably tasty because I left notes on my phone for only these.
By the way, I was sick the next day and slept 😌.
I'm glad I made it a holiday weekend😅.
Hi Matsuchiyo 🐦.
After Go Ara 9?ken, you still went 😆 You will be in bad shape 😂I guess you knew it was a consecutive holiday so you could enjoy it to the fullest 😁.
Beian Dakguk and Da Xuexi are both labels I've never seen before 😳.
Good evening Ponchan 🐩.
This is the 11th restaurant across the street from my regular master's store 😅.
Well, there wasn't enough water 🚰.
The sake here seems to be rare as the owner seems to stock up on it in Nagano.
Here is the second brand for our wedding anniversary.
I often travel to Nagano Prefecture, and I know a sake lover who likes Nagano sake, so I thought I knew a lot about it, but I'm sorry. This was my first time.
It was my first visit to a liquor store in Saitama City, and after some hesitation, I decided to buy a bottle of sake that looked like it would bring me good luck (a hammer of luck?). So I opened the bottle thinking it would be good for our anniversary!
It is the opposite of Hanakaze. It feels solid. I drank it in a wine glass, and it goes well with strong dishes!
We served it with Dr. Doi's recipe, ba-jaga and tuna 😘.

Kitaan Brewery.
It's refreshing and tasty.
Daiginjyo is available only at the event. It's very tasty.
Last year's sake was made with rice from Hyogo, but they changed it to rice from Omachi, Nagano.
