Eureka
Purchased at a liquor store in Shinano-Omachi after a traverse of the Goratateyama mountain range.
It is rich, sweet and delicious, but the 19% alcohol content is destructive. I needed a chaser.

Clean, sweet taste. Aroma: fragrant and sweet, with a hint of sourness. A little sourness. Delicious with a refined taste. Even though I have been drinking it for a long time, I still love the rich, sweet, and easy-to-understand taste of Kitayasu Brewery.

Beian Daigoku Autumn Sake Junmai Ginjo
Rating 4.4
Rice type/production area: Hitogokochi/Nagano, Rice polishing ratio 55%, Yeast: A.K.A. 701, Alcohol 15%, Sake degree -5/-1.8, Amino acid 0.9
This is an autumn sake that has gained roundness and umami with aging. While it is very drinkable, the moderate astringency and acidity give it a crispness that does not make it heavy. The mild aroma does not interfere with food, and it can be served at a wide range of temperatures, chilled when the lingering summer heat is still intense, or heated as autumn deepens. The aroma is slightly mellow and pear-like.

At a bar I was curious about.
I told them what kind of sake I liked.
and they brought some selections for me,
You can decide after tasting them.
This is the one I ordered fruity and they brought it.
I had R yeast the other day with another sake from Nagano.
It is quite sour, fresh, and delicious.

Beian Daikoku has a lot of sweet drinks.
I used to avoid them, but recently I often pick them up.
But recently, however, I often pick up a bottle.
I guess I've learned that they make sweet but tasty sake.
I often see sake stored in the snow, but this one looks delicious. I was drawn in by the words "sold by a distributor," and bought it.
It was sweet, but delicious. It is very good for the body after a long day's play.
I was soaked to the skin after a long day's play.

This is the third year.
The color of the swimsuit👙 changes every year, and the one I wore last year has been properly dried. Oh, how I regret missing the first year 😞.
First sweet, then acid at the end. So "was it sour?" and you will remember it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It has an elegant texture and must have been carefully stored in the snow 😊.

Good evening, Pon.
I like the taste, it's perfect for summer. I felt like I probably wrote the same thing about the label last year 💦.
The angles surprised me too when I lined them up 🫢.

This sake was the liquor store's choice that was sent along with the hanpukai sake from Miyajima Sake Shop in Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture 😀.
I had enjoyed a previous bottle of Kitayasu Okuni's snow storage sake wrapped in newspaper at a local liquor store, but today I would like to taste the differences between the two 😀.
The aroma and taste was a fruity sake with a sour and sweet flavor reminiscent of apples and grapes 😀.
The flavor was more robust than the sake wrapped in newspaper, probably due to the longer storage period 😀.
Kitaan Okuni from Nagano Prefecture is another sake I would buy if I see it 😇.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😀
It seems that the dried swimsuits on the label represent the number of bottles brewed so far, and this year is the fourth time it has been sold😇.
I like the style wrapped in a simple newspaper though 🤣.
Please give it a try 😀

Today's sake is Kitayasu Okuni Snow Storage Sake from Kitayasu Brewery in Omachi City, Nagano Prefecture❗️❗️
The aroma is slightly sweet❗️As you sip, you will feel a tingling and sourness on your tongue, followed by a slight bitterness❗️It is also a good sake for a mealtime drink❗️❗️

It seems to be brewed with Nagano R yeast, which produces a lot of malic acid. The acidity is guttural, but it is different from that of sake yeast, and is well balanced with the sweetness.
Japanese>English
あすみん
3.9 ★★★☆☆☆
It's not bad, but in general, it lacks punch.
It's not that it doesn't have flavor, and as it says malic acid, it has strong acidity. Characteristic and interesting.
Like a young white wine.
Good for occasional drinking.

I was surprised by the sudden tsunami warning last morning, but relieved that there was no major damage to Japan.
I am keenly aware of the importance of daily disaster prevention awareness 😓.
Now, I'm in the spirit of drinking when I can, so let's have a drink 🍶.
Kitaan Okuni Midsummer Midwinter Sake - Snow Storage Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake
Get it as an option in the July Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai (✨️). This one is completely new to me 💡.
This is a challenging bottle of freshly pressed, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake made in the winter and bottled and stored in the snow!
［Even in the heyday of "light and dry" sake, if you continue to make "mellow sweet" sake, someone will take a shine to it.
I can feel the confidence of the brewery that if they continue to make this sake, someone will be attracted to it, and that person will continue to buy "Kitaan Okuni".
［Glass.]
The aroma of rice is slightly banana-like, the mouthfeel is mellow with a gentle umami and banana-like richness, and then it finishes with a pleasantly long aftertaste and a sour bitterness.
［Mokkiri.]
The rice aroma is reminiscent of bananas, and the mouthfeel is soft with a strong acidity that finishes with a gentle aftertaste and a sweet and sour taste that lingers on the palate.
The sweetness and umami are in contrast to the "Ding" opened the other day, but there are similarities in the clean taste 🤔.
Both served with local seafood [Seared Spanish Mackerel] and [Sashimi of Black Sea Bream] 😋.

For the fourth one, I went to Yamaoka for the limited-time-only Burnt Soy Sauce Ramen (🍜).
However, I wasn't into it as much as I thought I would be, so I went back later for the "Special Miso Ramen" to cleanse my palate 🥰.

Hi, HinaHanaMama ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
It's a maturing method that can only be done in a region with deep snow 🥰.
It's a winter sake on the inside, but the label has a summery feel to it, which is very seasonal and intoxicating. ✨️
［I'm rekindling my ramen fever thanks to Sake-no-wa 🤣.

Drinking train this morning.
The empty cross seat is great for the drinking train, but it's tough to maintain the line.
Thank you JR!

It goes well with the salty nozawana oyaki!
It's nice to enjoy a relaxing morning drinking train with a nice view!
