profile iconOrganic rice x co-fired yeast x no yeast added, thank goodness 🙏. The mirin-like sweetness and the graininess of the rice are irresistible. The golden rice field scenery in front of me. And it goes so well with white rice! Especially great with ochazuke! 😁 When heated, the taste is more rounded and gentle. This one goes directly to the sake brewery, I went directly to the brewery and said, "I heard the podcast "Shinnami Tamimu"! I was talking to the president of the brewery, who came out from the back of the brewery, I told him about "dobu-jiru", a soup of anglerfish that can only be eaten in Oarai, He made a reservation at a nearby restaurant 😂. Thanks to him, it was a drink I will never forget 😊.

profile iconCold: Smooth taste and good balance. No wonder it is said to be a sake you can drink every day and never get tired of it. Shizuoka yeast is used. Kikuizui is said to be the best low-priced sake in Japan. Kikuizui has been introduced in the magazine "Mimi Shinbo".

profile iconFor your memorandum Rokka Shuzo Torai Junmai-shu Wild Rabbit with cold sake. While sorting through my photo data, I found an unposted sake, so I posted it here. It was served at "Norakura" Izakaya in Aomori Station. A good sake that brings out the flavor of the food. It went well with seafood.

profile icon@sakebar Fukuzo Fire-brewed sake using Fukuoka Prefecture's original yeast called F44. Slightly sweet aroma of 🍍 on the nose. The palate is slightly sweet with a hint of 🍍. The aroma is as if it was made with hana-yosuyu in mind. However, the aroma is weak because it is fire-aged. The sweetness is also weak due to the weak aroma. I am a little curious to see how it would be like if it were a fresh sake. It was delicious ✨🍍.

profile iconThe bottle on the right was opened three days ago. The left is a new bottle. When cold, it is a full-bodied sake with the umami of rice, as if the white rice is being smothered. When warmed up, it became sweeter and softer. It was a relaxing taste.

profile iconLike Kitanohomare, it was purchased at a liquor store where Nemuchi and I stopped by after the Ogimachi Park event. I'm not sure what brands they carry, but I get the impression that they stock a lot of Yamamoto, Eiko-Fuji, Chuai, and Yonesuru. I also wonder if they have a better stock of sake bottles. The first impression is light and refreshing, and the second half has a chemical-like umami and a strong alty taste. It's not my favorite type of flavor... I don't think you can tell it's a daiginjo if you drink it blind. When I drink it again, I feel acidity and a hint of sweetness. I think the sweetness has increased a little, so the nuance that I don't like has lessened. I don't care what you think, but isn't the balance bad because the seal on the bottle is the size of a bottle of raw sake? I thought so. The regular brand name of this brewery is Ando Suigun, but Ajigasawa seems to be a PB of a sake wholesaler in Shizuoka.
