It's only the first half of the week... this is what happens when you stop by the local liquor store after work 😅.
And! ...Since no one seems to be interested in such a preamble, let's get down to business.
This week is the last week before the consecutive holidays...so we are open even on weekdays 🍶.
Tonight, we will be at Gobashi in Yamaguchi.
I drank "Nene" a while ago... but that was a different image from Sake😅.
So I opened a bottle of Junmai Namaishu (pure rice) today!
The aroma is not so much a traditional sake ‼️ as it is a mild aroma 👌.
The first sip is not overly spicy or sweet, but has a soft and fluffy rice-like flavor 🥰.
Great balance for drinking during a meal👍
Unfortunately, I'm drinking it by itself as I write this report...
With this balance, I think sashimi, sushi, and yakitori can be served as a mealtime drink 😁.
The current trend in sake is to have a beautiful fruity taste... but the traditional deep and gentle taste is also hard to ignore 😍.
Good evening, Mr. Koiing Gull!
I love reading both the preface and the afterword 😁✨✨.
I remember that Gohashi is good for food sake, I have had Gohashi and I remember it goes well with food 😋.
I would like to enjoy various kinds of sake 🤗
Hi ma-ki-😃.
Thank you for everything 😁.
It was my favorite, with a taste that I never get tired of drinking that I wish I had for my daily dinner 👌.
Your exploration of sake never ends 🤩.
Today, a "Noryosai" was held at my workplace and I participated as a staff member ✨.
From early afternoon, we were sweating as we prepared for the various entertainment items 😂.
The Noryosai started at 17:00, and we had a good turnout first. ☝️
After cleaning up, we went to an izakaya for a private launch ✨.
We took our seats and immediately found mizuchi✨!
Low alcohol, sweet and sour, with a delicious taste of rice...it really hit the spot for my tired body 😭.
Delicious 🤣.

Itsuhashi Ride? Junmai Daiginjo Peach Color Nigori
Juicy aroma like strawberry 🍓.
Opening abundant gas feeling. Even after mixing, the gas rises one after another.
Sweet and juicy 🍓.
I drank it last year and it is still delicious 🥰.
Clean aftertaste, 11% alcohol by volume.
It will be gone in no time🥰.
The feeling of a stylish wooden barrel. It is like being in a stylish wooden building that looks a little familiar, about one or two years old.
It also feels a bit like red wine, a cozy Japanese space that incorporates European culture without overdoing it.
To be a Texan, A3BURA:JU (→Assemblage⁉️💡I noticed this when I got home and this was shibi💖) of sake placed in a new cedar barrel and sake placed in a barrel that used to hold red wine? And other fantasies such as. I get the feeling you're trying to make 3 by bumping up against personality and individuality rather than balancing it. 3=acid!
First time drinking Gobashi, now let's drink the main one too 🍶.
Today's second category is Gobashi Tratan from Yamaguchi Prefecture. Junmai sake brewed with Yamada Nishiki from Tratan village, clean, dry, crisp, and light. We had Tokyo Bay swordfish with seared sashimi and cold salmon chazuke to finish 😋 #Yaohiro #Yaohiro Tsujido #Tsujido #Fujisawa
Cool, young banana and peachy aroma with a touch of flamboyance.
Watery and light sweetness from the entrance, then spreading flavor and alcohol.
Then, it comes to a sharp end.
I had an easy-drinking ordinary sake made from out-of-spec Yamada-Nishiki! It's a very easy-drinking sake 🍶.
The "five" series is a limited distribution product that is only available at a few stores nationwide.
A new standard product of the "five" series, Red, is now available.
This time, it has a dry finish with a sake degree of +12. This is the first time in Gobashi's history that this level of dryness has been achieved.
The label looks like a "Z" in Roman characters, but it is a corruption of the Chinese character "Go".
Comment from the brewer
I heard that sake and red wine go together.
This sake is so dry that I want to put a "super" on it. Anyway, it is characterized by its refreshing and crisp taste.
Well, finally, to the June issue.
I was so excited to see Mizuchi from RIDE, and as I liked RIDE a lot, I was eager to try it and compared the drinks👍.
Blue 🩵.
This is more sweet and sour than sweet, and quite light! It's a great cure for the days I'm tired of fighting the humidity. Juice that is gone in an instant ❣️ so delicious 😋.
Yellow 💛
This one is more sweet and sour than sour, with a bitter citrus taste! It sinks into your sweaty body. Certified heat-addictive alcohol ❣️ so delicious 😋.
Husband preferred the blue 🩵 and I preferred the yellow 💛😊.
Anyway, we drank them both up, so it was a rainy season moment in our house, even with low alcohol 😅.
Hey Wakata!
Nice drink comparison... I think I prefer the yellow 💛 too 😙! It's a low alcohol, but since it's 2 bottles
So the math says 12 + 8 = 20 degrees 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃Hmmm, I'm officially certified as having the same tastes as you, Jay & Nobby 👍.
There's no doubt it's yellow 😆 If you calculate that you drank up 20 degrees, it's no wonder you're so tongue-tied, this math is going to help ✨.
I like vanilla whiskey too, so I bought the label 😌.
The aroma isn't very fancy, just a little bit of a cloying sweetness.
The mouthfeel is sweet on the tip of the tongue, but in the middle of the tongue, it is quite sweet. The quality of the sake is also thick and viscous, specializing in big sweetness in mellow.
The finish is slightly bitter, so I think they are dissolving the rice quite a bit. The sake level is not only -10, but probably -40.
I got the impression that the flavor was unsettled on the first day. I think it will become more balanced over the days.
