It is a very sweet bottle of sake that was created with the hope that it will open the door to sake for those who have never experienced it before. ‼️
Last night we invited a couple of friends over for drinks, so I made some leftover hors d'oeuvres: ham with mustard, garland chrysanthemum, daikon and nut salad, sweet and sour marinated carrots, and oden (oden).
I was missing something, so I added garlic toast for something chewy to drink👍 lol.
It had a special sweetness, but surprisingly bitter and sour mustard isn't bad either! And the oden Japanese garlic is also quite good (though strange as a dish 😅)!
It may not be perfect as a food sake, but I have the impression that it will go well with both Japanese and Western cuisine 😍It gave me the courage to use mustard with sweet sake without fear ✨.
I think this is the best sake for a first time sake drinker, and it goes well with home-cooked food too 👍.
Sake impressions by itself are by shinsaku3 😘.
Good evening, Pekho😄I felt your kindness in inviting your friends over for drinks with such a wish 🥰I am sure the pairing was perfect and your friends had a happy moment 💐Grain mustard I love it so much 😘.
Thank you Hina Hana Mama 🩷‼️ mustard does a great job 😘I'll give you the lineup of drinks from last night's dinner party with friends in another post 😘Sorry I didn't have time to take many photos of the food💦.
Good morning, Pheho 😃.
Stylish looking sake! I guess this is youth consciousness too 🧐The food looks delicious and the arrangement and plates are lovely💓 perfect with the atmosphere of the drinks 😊.
Jay & Nobby💓Youth consciousness indeed! I feel like sake is becoming more accessible to all generations and is booming 😍Good luck to all the sake breweries in Japan 😍We're young at heart too 💪Drinkers will do the same 🙌!
Overall 7 (out of 10)
This is my first time drinking this drink.
According to the description
It is a fruity and easy-to-drink SAKE that overturns the image of the younger generation that sake is hard to drink.
According to the description
We took a lot of effort to make it so that it would not be uncomfortable even if they switched from a 00 high or a 00 sour.
That's the impression I got.
It is sweet.
But it is more like a juice-like sweetness than the sweetness of rice.
The various flavors of rice, including umami, are not so apparent, or perhaps they are suppressed.
Maybe that's why it needed to be polished to daiginjo level 🧐.
I had it chilled.
Pairing impressions were made by Pekho-san.
My impression of the aroma
-Aroma: Slightly alcoholic aroma

Good morning, shinsaku3 😃.
We have never had Enasan 🥲We want to expand the gateway to Sake! It's good that you want to expand the gateway to sake 🤗but it's not enough for us 😋 who are already accustomed to drinking it😅.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It is indeed a good activity to expand the base 🍶 of alcohol that is liked by young people.
I think it's a good activity 😃.
As you said, it's a bit short for sake lovers 😅.
Today's dish
Hamburger✨
Thinking about what drink I'm going to drink today naturally makes cooking fun 😋.
Today's drink is also very delicious✨
I know very little about sake, so I bought a book called "Sake Bible" and my husband and I have been having a lot of fun researching the sake we find at the liquor store.
The ones we buy at the liquor store are the ones we like after reading your reviews or looking at the labels.
I'm enjoying my holidays even more now that I know more about sake 😙✨.
Now I still don't want to order online and look forward to every encounter at the liquor store💖.
Hello HINANOHA 😃
We also learned the joy of Sake at Sake-no-wa 😊 and we have a lot of fun discussing about Sake with our spouses 😊......................and now that we have a Sake we want, we go to the liquor stores to find it 🤗.
Oh! The title "Ena Enaberg" 😆.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😄I enjoy visiting liquor stores 😆✨.
Ena Enaberg 👏✨Sometimes I forget who I'm drinking with! and sometimes I forget, but I don't forget Ena Enaberg perfectly 😆✨.
Yamada-Nishiki 100
Polishing ratio: Koji rice 00%/Kake rice 50%.
Alcohol content 15
There is just a little bit of color. There is a tangy gas feeling on the tongue, but it is very sweet anyway.
When I drank it a week later, the sweetness was gone and it became a juicy sake with aroma, umami and acidity, and he said it was delicious👍.
Souvenirs from Gifu at a friend's house.
Polishing ratio 50%.
The aroma is weak, but you can certainly taste the rice.
It is slightly sweet, but basically dry.
It is easy to drink and has a sharp aftertaste.
It has no peculiarities, so it can be easily paired with anything.
I tried something called 📱digital detox.
I didn't consciously do it, I simply left my phone at the pub where I 👆 drank 😅.
It's so inconvenient without it 😣.
Also, the "I don't have it with me" anxiety.
If you get in the car 🚙 you'll be asked, "I couldn't connect to my phone, did you forget your phone?" I'm asked "Did you forget your cell phone?" 😮💨 Yes, yes, I forgot it.
Hmmm, I realize how much people today are tied to their phones😩.
I'll get to the point now 🙇.
It was a year-end party, but I didn't have enough to drink, so we went to a nearby izakaya (Japanese-style pub).
This restaurant, Enasan, is the best choice 🤗.

Relying on faint memory
Quite transparent
Plenty of citrus fruity
Good acidity
Yamada-Nishiki is a wonderful variety of Nishiki 😃.
I think it's a widely acceptable structure.
It was delicious 😋😋😋.
Thanks for the treat

It's been a while.
I had some business in Nagoya and went to Ena Gorge on my way there, so I bought some local sake.
Enayama Junmai Ginjo.
It was a refreshing yet slightly tangy sake with a nice aftertaste at the end.
It is not so strong in character, so it is an easy sake to pair with a meal!
Ena-san Pure
When poured, it smells like pears. Sweet and sour, slightly carbonated, slightly bitter. It tastes like a reward and a treat. Delicious.
On 11/23, on the way back from the Mizunami and Kasahara brewery openings, I took advantage of the time I had to make a one-stop transfer at Nakatsugawa Station and bought some at the brewery. It was the first new sake brewed this year.
The brewery is located in a nice area that still retains its old townscape. Since we were on a slow train, we realized that the Nakasendo road connects Shiojiri to here.
