I went to Nikko 🙈💭 in a Spacia X. This is the local sake we got in the car on the way back 🍶. The alcohol content is high because it is a pure sake, It was a very dry Honjozo sake!

National Sake Fair 2025 Day 2 part65 Tochigi Ai🥰④ Katayama Sake Brewery in Nikko City There is also a Katayama Sake Brewery of the same name in Fukui that brews Kansai! Kashiwazakari, not Kashiwamori Polishing ratio 65%, Gohyakumangoku from Tochigi, 19 degrees, Sake degree +2, 1950 yen The price is very aggressive for a honjozo! A classic sake with a lot of attitude. The name seems to be "Harazake M" but I don't know what "M" means... The brewer of Wakakoma Sake Brewery gave me a bottle of sake around this time!

The first sip was swoopy and I couldn't keep up with the flavors, but from the next I could feel the strong, dark flavor. I also enjoyed how it settled down over time.

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`;) It is five years old, and when heated up, it has a slightly sweet graininess. Sourness is also light. When it cools down, the juiciness becomes more apparent. It is considered to be an old sake that is easy to drink.

Bacchus and Yamaha 2023, Toyama Eki-naka BAR ^ ^. The fourth drink is Narimasa, Junmai Daiginjo, 2021 Sake Brewing Year. 2 years old sake. Every sake at Narimasa is 100 yen per glass. Too cheap. I didn't really feel the sense of maturity, but it is a slightly dry sake with a long aftertaste.

The freshness of the sweetness spreads. Sourness comes into play at the end. Scented! Yummy 😋 Very good 👍 lol.

Rice used is Yamadanishiki produced in Nanto City Purchased at an antenna store in Toyama Prefecture The aroma is mild, slightly fruity. The overall impression is DRY. The finish is moderately bitter and spicy. It is a good food sake.

Today's sake was Kinkan Kuromatsu from the hometown tax return gift from Iwakuni, which we received yesterday 😀 It is a junmai sake, so it didn't have much aroma, but the taste of the rice was very good. It is a junmai sake, which means that the aroma is not too strong and the taste of the rice can be felt well 😀. It was an easy sake to pair with a meal without feeling too much alcohol 😀. Tomorrow, Kaorin and I are going to a Yamaguchi sake event in Kitahama, Osaka 😇. There are many Yamaguchi sake that I like, so I'm looking forward to it 😇.

Japanese>English

@Hangetsuan Rice used is something like Saito no Shizuku. It is an orthodox junmai sake, but it suited your meal. Now, talking about February, we were finally able to realize the Iwakuni expedition that was cancelled in 2020 due to the Corona disaster: ❗️ We had some time to spare, so we visited the sake brewery of Mr. Ganki. We got some treasures by looking for "Kinjaku". ‼️ Unfortunately, Kintai Bridge was under construction. It was a fulfilling trip in its own way.

Purchased at the Sake Brewery Dry. Delicious. It was delicious to the last without being too sweet!

Purchased at a sake brewery Acidic, tangy and dry in the distance Spiciness increases as the temperature rises. Very heavy and drinkable From the President Shake it before drinking. It wakes up the sleeping yeast and makes it tingle. Please drink it while chilling. Label description: "Pressed carefully without pressurization, leaving natural residues. It has a gentle aroma of banana and grapes. A special cup created by the slightest hint of residues when you touch the bottle."

Japanese>English

Refreshing minty scent 🌿. Light and refreshing🎵 Sour and slightly sweet 😋. Lingering bitterness comes later 😋⚡️ Mild when warmed 😃. Sourness becomes more pronounced: 👍️ The second half of the bottle disappears at once 😲.

A short trip to Boso during summer vacation. We stopped by Inahana Sake Brewery, a small sake brewery in Chonan Town. I asked, "Is there any sake that can only be bought here?" The brewer recommended this one, They recommended this one. 🌸 Junmai Ginjo Minnezakura Unfiltered Nama Zume Genshu 100% Gohyakumangoku produced in Chonan-cho, Chiba Prefecture Yeast: K1401 Alcohol content: 17%. The cherry blossoms in Nomine Park in Chonan-cho were used for the name and label. The aroma is full and slightly melon-like. The mouthfeel is slightly sharp, with a balanced mid-palate that is more umami, The aftertaste is mainly dry and slightly astringent, with a lingering impression. 🏕️ With seafood BBQ at a glamping event... It was a perfect match with scallops and turban shells from Kujukuri! Sake that can only be found in a travel destination and air that can only be experienced in a travel destination. I realized that this is the true pleasure of "local sake and local snacks". Preference score: 7.5/10 Aroma: 1.5｜Mouthfeel: 1.0｜Medium: 1.5｜Final taste: 1.5｜Price: 2.0 👩‍🦰 Wife: 7/10 "I don't remember, but I think this is about right.

This is my first time in Kumi no Ura. I've only seen it at Isetan Kyoto. It has a fruity aroma, light and refreshingly sweet. It seems to be popular among women. It is different from the impression on the label.

Japanese>English

I drank Kumi no Ura a long time ago, but it made little impression on me. I tried to remember it well this time, but my memory is not so good in this area😅. I think it was dry and refreshing, made with Koshihikari rice.

The other day, I saw Kazuhiko Ota drinking Furozumi on TV, and I wanted to drink it for the first time in a while, so my husband bought some at a local liquor store. I wanted to drink it for the first time in a long time, so my husband bought it at a local liquor store. When the bottle is opened, there is a faint aroma of rice. The color is slightly amber. It tastes great cold, but if you warm it up to lukewarm, the corners are removed and the flavor becomes rounder. It has a deep taste with the sweetness of rice. It is also good with strong flavored meals. As the name suggests, it's deliciously warmed!

I found this Fukushima sake at Aeon today. I was wondering if I should buy it last time I was there and didn't, but I was curious so I bought it this time. The label said it was dry, so... it's definitely spicy ☺️. It's delicious and it's only about 1,000 yen so it's easy on the pocket.

I am not a fan of summer drinks. It is because it is often too spicy or too weak. I bought this sake at a certain sake store I always visit when I go squid fishing in Tottori, because the brand I was looking for was out of stock. For some reason, the liquid is pinkish in color, but there is no mention of color in the description. I took a sip. There is no distinctive aroma. Oh, it is surprisingly sweet. It is spicy, but not too spicy that I don't like it. It tastes round. In general, it has a strange taste, and I never get tired of drinking it. There is nothing sparkling about it, but it has an irresistible, smoldering charm that makes you want to drink it. Tottori has a lot of interesting and unusual sake.

It was refreshing and tasty!
