It was hot... in May... in Saitama Prefecture too. There were some extremely hot days 🤣. On the last day of GW, I went to a shopping mall on the way home from a movie with my wife. I went to a shopping mall to do some shopping. We wandered around Cardi's. Sake. Ice sake? I thought it would be good when it gets hotter. I tossed it in the back of the basket. I had it waiting in the freezer, but I didn't realize how quickly it would crisp up. It was hot, so I decided to finish it off with a dessert. Adult sherbet Naoshichi is a brand of citrus fruit from Kochi. It's good to have in the freezer from now on. ⭕️ The manufacturer is Kikusui Sake Brewery. No, it's from Kochi, so it's from here.

Okan's present sake series. Today I chose Kikusui. I didn't know there was a Kikusui in Tosa. I didn't know that😓I expected some sweetness since it is a junmai ginjo, but it was very dry. Sometimes it is nice to drink sake at room temperature. It's a single-batch bottle, so it's easy to open 😄.

(Sequel) Six people drinking together, no matter how much sake you have, it's never enough (lol), so we rushed to a store selling Kochi sake in the basement of the antenna store to consult with the owner. The friendly owner suggested this one when I told him my budget and preferences. It has a beautiful, cool label, and the taste is light, yet refreshing. Of course, it is perfect for Kochi cuisine👍.

@Osawa of Sake Rice used is unknown Not fruity at all. It is not light and dry, and has aged well. The taste is a mellow type with a strong umami. The aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing for a Daiginjo. It is what is called "the sake of sake.

I stopped by Hashimoto Sake Brewery on my way to Yamanaka Onsen last year. The store is a bit like a museum, and you can learn a lot from the easy-to-understand explanations about the rice polishing ratio and the process of making sake. I was not able to taste the sake because I was the handle keeper, but the president recommended a lot of sake and my family was getting drunk (sweat). I drank it cold, but it was still dry. When I heated it up, it became soft, mellow, and easy to drink. The color is quite amber, so the polish may be shallow. Personally, I think drinking it at room temperature or hot is the right way to go. I like to drink sweet sake cold, but I'm starting to think it would be nice to drink dry sake hot ( ˘ω˘ ).

A cup of sake that was given to me 🤤. It has a delicious rice flavor and a molasses-like aroma. It also has an alcoholic taste.

Sake from a sake brewery in the northern part of the prefecture, located in the famous production area of Hachitan-Nishiki, Hiroshima's representative sake rice. The brewery has been working on it since the rice was first produced. The name of the sake is "Miwa Sakura" instead of "Miwa Zakura," which I had been misreading for a long time. It is said to be dry, but the quality of the sake is relatively soft. It has a nice sharp aftertaste and is easy to drink. It is quite my favorite 😋. I had it cold, but I think it can also be served warm.

Rice used is Miyamanishiki I didn't find it too harsh, but my partner, who prefers a gorgeous sweet taste, found it too much for his palate. It is true that the alcohol taste comes first, and the mouthfeel is not smooth. As the day goes by, the corners are removed and it becomes more moderate, so it might be better to go out with it slowly, but I don't dislike it in this way.

The next drink was a Tokujiro for Joyo's distributor? Tokujiro I drank Joyo several times, but this was my first time to drink Tokujiro. I happened to see on a restaurant instagram I follow that Tokujiro was originally a joint product between a Hirakata liquor store and the Joyo Brewery. It's unfiltered, once-bottled, and heated. It's fire-brewed, but it's still slightly effervescent and has a fresh, mellow rice flavor that's really tasty 😋. I'll buy Tokujiro next time I see it.

I went there to see if they had Reimei, but they said it was out of stock today 😭 I got back on track and had Kumamoto Bishonen & Kagoshima Tenpyo 😭 👍️ Bishonen, clear and dry ❤️3 If you drink more than 2 glasses, I think the all you can drink course is a good deal. My companion doesn't drink much Sake so we left after 2 glasses💦. Back to the nearby bar🍸️✨There's a stylish bar above the cafeteria where you don't have to be a student to enter👀‼️ sorry no sake💦we did get to see Hachiko🎵🐕️

Kagatsuru" at "Kanazawa Jishuzo", a corner sake brewery in Kanazawa Station! Photo #1 on the left I could tell by the difference in taste that it was dry. I got the impression that it had a strong bitter taste.

Purchased at a supermarket near the station. It was served chilled. It is a relatively strong and full-bodied type of sake. But it is a good sake that does not interfere with meals. My wife and father-in-law said they liked the taste. I will keep it in mind.
