Today was the last day of work: ❗️
What is the last sake at the end of the year 🤔?
I opened a bottle of Takefujima's Active Nigori after some hesitation. I bought this at the brewery during my summer trip to Lake Biwa history. It was a very nice trip.
Unfortunately it had lost its activity 😭 I left it for five months 😓.
But dry flavor and some acidity. A sweetness that is hidden in the aftertaste. Well matched and easy to drink: ☺️
This would be really good if it had activity!
This one seems to be popular and is sold all year round. Highly recommended.
The snacks are chutoro (medium fatty tuna) and conger eel tempura.
The Christmas cake is from Numazu's long-established Ale Marine.
Let's open another bottle for hot sake 🍶.
What shall we open at the beginning of the year 🤔

Good evening, ellie 🦉.
I see you have an active nigori (a kind of "active" rice wine) 😳I'm in Shiga and haven't tasted it yet💦I'd like to try it if I can find it 😊.
I was in Shizuoka at the beginning of December and could hardly see it 😢.

Good evening Ponchan ^ ^
It's bad luck not to see Fuji in December😅
I just checked the Shizuoka review 😆 I missed it around the time I left the hospital 😓.
You have a good eye to choose Kaiun. It's a brewery as good as Isoboast: ❗️

By the way, I think there were two types of active nigori, one with a hole in the cap and one without ^ ^.
This is the latter.
