Takatsugawa is an everyday sake from Shimane's Fusozuru. Full-bodied and full of flavor when cold. Warmed up, it is a warm and mild sake. It goes well with solid everyday dishes and can also be drunk with oshiruko (soup stock). It is a soft, matured sake with a low price, and I love its mellow, umami taste.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

The sake is brewed by "Toroki Shouten", a sake brewer who was involved in growing the rice and brewing it together with Wakatakeya Sake Brewery. I got it as a sign of support 😊 Is it what's called a light, dry taste? It had a faintly sweet aroma, but the sip was refreshingly watery! The flavor and bitterness come out on the palate. I was drinking it with cream cheese as an entrée, but it doesn't get in the way, so it's probably just right for a mid-meal drink 😊.

Purchase from Okuhida Sake Brewery This sake brewery is within walking distance of Hida Kanayama Station. This time, they recommended to purchase by letter. I am a sucker for limited editions, so I bought it. The aroma is moderate and the taste is strong. It is dry with a clean aftertaste. I paired it with fried pork and cheese with tomato ketchup. I had it with fried pork and cheese with tomato ketchup. It had a strong flavor, but because it was dry, I think it would go well with western food. I think it goes well with western food.

Sake I got on a business trip to Hamamatsu. It has been a long time since I have been on a business trip, and it has been a long time since I have had a drink with people I have met, and I do not want the world to be a place where Corona gets in the way of meeting people. The name of this sake, "Dezejo," is an alias of Hamamatsu Castle, named after the successive lords of the castle who succeeded Ieyasu, many of whom rose to important positions in the Edo Shogunate. It is a traditional dry sake, that feeling of a hot throat. Hamamatsu is also the setting for a major TV drama, and Hamamatsu is hot and exciting.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A brand that is no longer in existence, Ippiki. It seems to be refreshing, but comes with a gusto. It's not a sparkling sake, but it has a refreshing tanginess. Interesting sake. Kangiku is now the top sake in Chiba, but Ikki (now Koshi) used to be the best. It is a pity that this brand is no more!

The meat gift from my daughter arrived very late as a birthday present for my husband and I, who are three days apart 🎁. My son gave each of us a gift of our choice (alcohol for me again, this time liqueur 😅) It seems to be a local sake from Nagahama, Kita Omi, which is made of sake and blue herb 🌿 "Butterflapi" and represents the charm of Lake Oku-Biwako. I didn't have anything to go with the steak, so I went with this sake. It is a liqueur with little sweetness and a refreshing taste, but it was easy to drink as sake. It made me feel like my family was together even though we were not at the table.

Japanese>English

It is a light and easy to drink sake.

Japanese>English

I have an early summer vacation 😆. I enjoy going on historical trips, and this time I plan to go from Omi Nagahama to Kohoku and enter Kyoto from Saba Kaido (mackerel road). The hotel we stayed at is a buffet and you can drink all the Junmai you want from Kohama. It's a good deal. ‼️ is enough for a buffet 🤣It has a light sharpness and a slight bitterness. The best way to get the most out of it is to buy a new one. I am satisfied. The interesting thing about Omi is that there are amazing things on display in places that seem like they are nothing. This time, we visited Mikakaku, a facility that exhibits relics of Chishokuji (abandoned temple), which was amazing... 🥺Asai documents and Buddhist statues from the Heian period were all around. We made friends with the volunteer interpreter and stayed for 2 hours. The photo shows Kotani Castle and the bridge where Mitsunari Ishida is said to have been captured, as one of the volunteers told us.
