The trophies from our recent petit expedition 🍶✨. I heard from a junior colleague in Fukushima that this is the best one~⤴️ and I happened to run into it at the brewery, so I got it without hesitation. Light, refreshing, fruity🌸🍶✨. Lactic acidic 🐮 with a slight 🍶✨. Nice and crisp when swallowed 😊⤴️😊 Elegant taste 👑. I enjoy it very much(^-^)/

Last night's last 🍶. We had a delicious meal.

@Koriyama Iando After having a drink in Omiya, I got tired of going back to Tokyo, so I jumped on the 🚄 and went to Koriyama. I decided to have a quick bite in front of the station, but it was crowded everywhere, so I went to a new restaurant that I found. They have a good selection of local sake, and I chose "Yuri", which I had never had before, and it is from the same brewery as Aizu Nakasho! I heard that this sake is brewed by a mother and daughter who are both sake brewing technicians! It has a soft sweetness at first, but eventually it becomes slightly dry and pleasant to drink. It is very easy to drink, which is impressive and delicious.

This is the world's best regular sake from Yumeshin Shuzo. I had it at room temperature. It is a delicious sake that is full-bodied, deliciously sweet, with a touch of dryness in between 🎶.

Japanese>English

It's been a while since I've had a Yumeshin: ❗️ While Naraman is fruity and gorgeous, this sake has a robust taste and a slightly unique aroma 🤔. I don't mind it with a meal. but with just this one, it's a bit hard to drink 😅.

Japanese>English

Purchased in a set sale with Tobiroki. Yumeshin? I thought, "I don't know this..." and then I found out that it is the brewery of Naraman. I was relieved and at the same time I was relieved, but at the same time I was relieved, but at the same time, I was reminded that preconceived notions are not good 😅. Fukushima's original yeast "Utsukushima Yume Yeast" is used. The brewery uses Fukushima's original yeast, "Utsukushima Yume Yeast". It was launched to the ISS last year and spent 37 days in a zero-gravity space. It was launched to the ISS last year and spent 37 days in a zero-gravity space. It has a light touch of sweetness, followed by a slightly dry taste. It is a bit dry after a light touch of sweetness, but it is rather fruity.... But it's a bit fruity.... But after drinking Takachiyo, which is +19 on the sake level, I realized that Yumeshin is not dry at all. I realized that Yumeshin is not dry at all 😂.

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.

Junmai ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Uesugi Yonezawa Naoe Yamashiro Kanetsugu [Love Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15%. This is the 7th kind of sake we purchased on our trip to Yamagata 🤗. The label is named after Naoe Kanetsugu's helmet seal [Ai]... I couldn't help but buy it 😅. I thought it was a crisp, dry, refreshing sake that I would never get tired of drinking on the palate. When pouring it into the sake cup, I put a little more than usual so that the saucer would be filled with [love]... I was drinking it by myself laughing with the memories of my trip 🤗. Uesugi Castle Garden: 20241028 purchased & 1116 opened

Junmai-shu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 15%. This is the fourth type of sake we purchased on our trip to Yamagata 🤗. In Yonezawa, we did not have enough time to visit Kosaka Sake Brewery due to a visit to Toko's sake brewery. The next day, after eating Yamagata Ramen, we stopped by Beni no Kura in Yamagata City and purchased this 🤗. It's a refreshingly dry sake with a great taste of rice.

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023(´¦) Very sharp and refreshing, a dry sake with a thick body that is not light. A junmai sake that tastes great chilled. No strong character, but good for everyday drinking I imagined that Frog's ginjo-nama-zake next to it would also be good, but my weak liver stopped screaming and I gave up on it! See you again, Mr. Frog!

Tenma Dai-Shuukai (¡Ω-Ω-Ω) Slightly mellow raw storage It is a summer product with a refreshing taste and aroma It gets sweeter as it warms up, but it is basically refreshing when cooled down, right? The people dancing to the KUWATA BAND medley on the way home seemed to be having a good time! For some reason, they were so well prepared that they brought their own happi (happy coats)! It was wonderful that they were giving it their all! After all, the Tenma Taishukai is unique!

Japanese>English

Rice used is Hidahomare This sake has a rich, dry taste that is typical of junmai sake. It is smooth on the palate, but the sense of rice spreads immediately, followed by a strong pungent and astringent taste. The aftertaste is also long and powerful. It is a sake that is very drinkable and can be served with strong dishes.

Japanese>English

Hida Takayama, Sake Brewery Nonbei Festival The third restaurant is Hirase Sake Brewery of "Kusudama". This place is a little far from the old streets. You can see the chimney in the back, but the site looks spacious. The store inside is only for sake tasting and sales, so it is only for customers who are looking for sake. Let's take a look at the sake tasting. Well, it has a mild taste and goes down softly and smoothly. It is delicious. It's amazing that it has been in business for 400 years, isn't it?

At home. I know I'm a little late, but I'd like to wish everyone a happy new year. The first bottle I opened this year was Suzukagawa from the same brewery as Saku, which I got at the end of the year. The aroma, sweetness, acidity, and bitterness in the mouth are very similar. It wasn't as impressive as the Saku, but it was a delicious gem. At the end of the year, I mainly drank the same brands, but now that the year has started, I would like to try more and more new ones that I have never tasted before. This Suzukagawa is the first step, and I hope it will be a good start. I would like to continue my efforts to develop new sake.

Japanese>English

I was going to buy Junmai from Suzukagawa, but they had a new sake, so I decided to buy this one 😊. Aroma with a beautiful atmosphere. It has a calm freshness and a firm sweetness. Saku's new sake is delicious, but Suzukagawa is also good 😋.

Japanese>English

Aru-soke Ginjo class, which is not found in "Saku". Fruity flavor and a light mouthfeel. It goes in smoothly. It is not only light, but also has a well-defined taste. It is excellent as a food wine and goes well with everything. My partner, who loves "Saku", drank it at a high pace.
