Smoky Acidity Fizzy Umami Bitterness Sharp Muscat Dry

Closing out the drinks we had last weekend 😆. Smell good 😌. The Mikotsuru was quite rich and sweet, so I felt a lot of sourness when I took a sip 😳. The more I drank, the more umami and the sourness and aliveness were also good 👍 I can feel the strong aroma of the barrels! Is this a dry wine? and Nobby Well, I guess it's umakuchi. It is labeled 18 degrees, but you don't feel it. I thought it would have been better if it was warmed up to lukewarm 🤔 I thought so later, but I finished it before I realized it 😆. But I drank a little too much from Thursday to the weekend 😓. I'll enjoy a quiet rest day for the first half of this week 😮💨.

Nice to meet you Shikishima ~ ⤴️🍶 Light, refreshing, fruity🌸🍶✨ A little 🍈, a little 🍍, a little citrus 🍊 😊. This is super oicy ❕. I enjoy it very much.

Tonight, I'm opening a bottle of the first bottle of Masamune instrument for the weekend dinner because it's so good it's about to run out 💁. Shikishima Light Nigori Nama Sake 2022BY Back on the nigori road a bit, but again it's almost a year old 😅. When I opened the bottle, I could hear the gas escaping with a nice sound. The aroma is mainly chemically aromatic, with a hint of greffle skin and a little bit of maturity. The mouthfeel changes from sourness and citrus bitterness to bitterness, umami, and spiciness. The alcohol content is 18%, so it has quite a punch, but the sweetness and umami from the aging process gives the impression that it is more rounded. It's good that the lees are so cloudy and the umami and richness is so much better 😊.

I wanted to fill in the map of Nagano, so I bought this limited edition Shinanotsuru sake. The fruity taste of the Shinanotsuru, the slight fizziness, the slight bitterness, the clear mouthfeel is also nice❗️I love it😂. Shinanotsuru, Shinshu Kameari, Kawanakajima, Sogape, Masumi... Nagano has a lot of attractive sake 🤤

Is this your first Ryusei? Maybe I've had it before, I'm not sure. The label is a dragon, how do you say? It is stamped with a mold, which is also good! The aroma is modest. Soft acidity in the mouth. It is slightly fruity. It is said that this sake is a challenge to use wild yeast. I will try to drink more sakes from various breweries!

🌸 The label is cute. I don't know if it's true because it's only a sip at 30ml 😅. Well, 30 minutes have passed, but I was told I could stay longer, so I decided to stay (lol).

Japanese>English

Continued at Asano Sake Shop. Submission, I'll run out of power soon😅. For a long time, Shibotan was my father's favorite brand and he used to drink it well with hot sake. I was happy to find a draft of Funaka Hachisaku that I wanted to try. I didn't mind the super dryness of the sake, it had a subtle umami flavor and a crisp cut that left a sour taste, but it complemented the food with which it was served.

This is the first sake from the brewery I have ever had. I received it as a Furusato tax donation. The Tale of Genji label reminds me of the current historical drama "To the Lord of Light". It was slightly sweet and easier to drink than I expected.

Today is Nigori no Hi? (25th) eve. I had a Kirinzan. It has no effervescence, but when you pour it into a glass, it is very fizzy. The alcohol content is 14 degrees. A little low. It has a gentle flavor, but it is dry and refreshing. The nigorigo has a variety of flavors, and it is delicious.

After the Daiginjo, we had this sake 🍶♪ It is a slightly dry sake, so it is light and refreshing, but you can also taste the sweetness of the rice. I thought it was a perfect match for the oily soup of the motsu nabe and the champon noodles we had as a finale.

Japanese>English

Clean at first, then full-bodied! Fruity and sweet. The aftertaste is a bit bitter and the alcohol is not too strong. The alcohol content is 17 degrees. App♩Sake rice is 100% Gin no Sato from Yame which is local brewery. This year study sake brewing rice too! 1 day passed, change to firm sweet taste! Alcohol feeling is gone, a little fresh impression⁉︎

On the last day of the consecutive holidays, I felt like Fukuoka all at once from Akita! We enjoyed Fukuoka sake with motsu nabe and mentaiko (cod roe) as a side dish. The sake was well chilled and refreshing, with a crisp and refreshing taste.
