288 Nights Junmai Ginjo Tamakashiwa 100% Gohyakumangoku produced in Niigata Prefecture Polishing ratio 50%. Alcohol content 16%. Sake meter degree: +3.8, Acidity: 1.5 (reference) Fat: 7/25 (bottle opened 8/23) This sake won the Platinum Award in France in 2018, and I tasted and bought it during my business trip to Nagoya on 7/19! Origin of the name *From the label The name "Two Hundred Eighty-eight Nights" comes from the fact that it took Mr. Takakura 288 days from rice growing to sake brewing in 1999, and Mr. Uno, who inherited his will, brewed it faithfully according to his teachings. I didn't notice any particular aroma after opening the bottle, but it had a refreshing-like feeling. The refreshing taste on the palate reminds me of a beautifully dressed young lady in summer clothes with a crisp and refreshing mouthfeel 😍. It's dry, but you can also taste a hint of sweetness, which I think is what makes it so refreshing. The spiciness may be due to the 16% alcohol content. The spiciness comes in the second half when it goes down your throat 🤩. Delicious! On the 4th day of my trip to Osaka, I went to Osaka Expo Park (Tower of the Sun) 🤯 I got a taste of Taro Okamoto's world view 🤯. By the way, last week's horses also maintained great form 💪. I hope to win a lot of single bets on these less popular horses 🎯.

Drinking Gifu's Local Sake 2024 in Osaka㉓ Gifu's local sake booth. The brewery pursues "sake that goes well with food and that you never get tired of drinking. It was almost the end of the event, and some of the sake had already been sold out, but a unique label caught my eye. I had noticed it on Hirupeko's post and was wondering if it was sold at Haretoke, but I didn't realize I could drink it here... Mukashi no Mamma Special Junmai. The sourness and umami in the appleiness matched each other, and I was like, "Ummm.... Unlike the impression on the label, it is not so classical and easy to drink. I would have liked to try other Tamakashiwas.

Purchased at Yokohama Takashimaya Rice used is Kame-no-o type Koshihikari produced in Kasama City The alcohol is a little strong, but the taste is smooth and not like an unfiltered draft. It has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness and is refreshingly clean❣️. There aren't many unfiltered sake that are good all-around food sake, but this one seems to go well with all kinds of food❣️.

Japanese>English

Well, it has a solid rice feeling and no acidity ☺️. I think it's a little light in character, but But I can't help but drink more😋. @Kasama Masuya

Cold sake. Sake from Japan's oldest sake brewery. The color is a cloudy light yellow. The aroma is faintly of cooked rice with a hint of myrin. The first sip has a mild aroma of cooked rice with a honey-like sweetness. The aftertaste is crisp and light, leaving a dry aftertaste on the tongue. Although it is a sake made from the traditional sake yeast, it is a pure rice daiginjo that is stored unfiltered, so it is easy to drink and has a beautiful taste with a broad range of flavors. Goes well with Iburi Goko cheese.

We attended a year-end party for parents of my second son's high school club! Although there are some rank restrictions, we enjoyed drinking all the sake we could drink 😆. The 2nd glass Wadarai Dry Junmai This is also a brand I've never had before! Although it is dry, it is surprisingly fruity! It has a clean and crisp taste, so it went in easily.

Japanese>English

Yamagata dry is interesting because sweetness also rides on it. After all! Shonai sake rice is different?

Purchase of a warehouse This is the fourth brewery on a tour of four breweries in the Daisen area of Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture. The last one was sold directly to the public. It was served in a wine glass, as it was awarded the gold medal in the "2024 Wineglass Sake Award". When this is written, my impression is pulled and I feel it is like white wine. But it was delicious with a grape-like sweetness. Only one brewery sells directly to the public. There are four breweries in a small area, so I think they should be able to attract more people if they do well. Keep up the good work, Daisen: ‼️

It's been a while since I bought sake at the Aomori Iwate Antenna Shop. It says it's nigori sake, but it's not cloudy at all😅. It's very clear and quite crisp. I got the impression that it's a pretty dry sake, but there's also a little sweetness. I can see a little bit of off-flavor...

Japanese>English

It was introduced as having an aftertaste like garland chrysanthemum. I don't know about "garland chrysanthemum," but it is an easy-to-drink nigori sake. The bottle is cute.

Then the middle one, "Senryo Otokoyama. Honey-like aroma. The mouthfeel is silky, but the flavor is similar to a juku-shu type. It has a honey and syrupy feel with a touch of pettiness. However, it is easy to drink, with no harshness or bitterness, perhaps because the overall assertiveness is modest! It is crisp but dense. It is a deep taste that is hard to describe!

GW 4 days 3 nights with wife, 1,500km round trip🤣 We went on a Sanriku car trip 🙂. We stayed one night near Sendai and went to Sanriku.

Seafood Cuisine at Murekou, a long-established bar that has been in business for over 45 years.
