Birthday gift sake No. 3 Speaking of comets, Ricaman is a liquor that I don't get a chance to drink very often because I don't go to Ricaman. It has a mild top-fragrance aroma. It is gorgeous and refreshingly sweet on the palate. It is a versatile type of sake that can be enjoyed with food or on its own. For better or worse, it is an excellent Daiginjo. I think it tastes more open and sweeter on the second day than when it is freshly opened. The design of the sake lid looks just like the one from a while ago😅.

Today I chose sushi, sashimi and comet in the aftermath of yesterday's birthday, and since my son and wife went to bed, I had a luxurious dinner by myself😘. The comet I bought for comparison last time was so good that I bought two bottles for comparison this time too 🤣👍. Tomorrow I'm going to go to Gifu and buy Yamamoto Do, which I've longed for. ‼️ I've been looking for it for about three years now, but when I find a store that carries it, it's always sold out, so I'll make sure to get it this year 🥺. So let's open the bottle: ‼️ The aroma is fruity and the taste is sweet and juicy with almost no bitterness or acidity.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild, but the taste is clean, sweet, and sharp. It went down smoothly and easily.

Returning home to my parents' house Since I've come all this way, I'll have a glass of Saga sake. You can feel the depth of rice in this sake. The accompaniment was octopus dumplings from Yachan-do!

Japanese>English

Here's the second drink, a drink comparison at HAMA BAR in Kashima City. Nokomi Special Junmai Sake The concept of this sake is a light taste with a mild aroma. It is made with "Saga-no-Hana" rice, which is suitable for sake brewing in Saga Prefecture, and is said to have a light taste. It has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity that makes me want another glass 😁!

I was afraid to open it, wondering what it would be like, because I saw it in the workmen's section of the aeon, but it was surprisingly delicious and I quickly emptied it.

Japanese>English

The fourth cup went to "Kasen"! Gorgeous aroma like a flower garden. It has a clear, dry mouthfeel with a mineral flavor that brings to mind the scenery of nature. A perfect combination with spicy food such as cod roe ✨.

😁. We were here for snow fencing at a ski lodge that we take care of in the winter. We will work a little in the morning, relax at Nagano station and go home. I will ask for a sake tasting set ☺️. The rightmost one is today's sake, Kisoji hiyaoroshi. The aroma is very strong and the taste is stable. You can tell how delicious the rice is. Delicious. Now, I'm going home to buy Gokotsuru. My back hurts from carrying so much stuff with bad posture💦.

(˶ᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Purchased on a tour of Tohoku (9) I bought this at the brewery of Shiuchu Sake Brewery 😀. The aroma is mild😊the overall feeling is light and committed to the food 😚👍. The fourth one I went to Morioka Hachimangu shrine😊I drew a golden tai-mikuji 🥳I hope to go back next year on my tour of Iwate Prefecture🔥.

Limited once a year project. Shibori this morning (^^) 100% Gin-Otome from Iwate Prefecture. Gorgeous aroma. Fresh, clean and crisp taste. Goes well with cheese and cured ham.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we will finally enjoy a very tasty "Shiuchu" and another brand "Hiroki" spring sake from the same brewery 🤗. This is the first time I've heard of a brewing method called "sanki amazakamoto". It is said to be a technique to bring out the flavor of the rice. The aroma and taste are gentle and slightly lactic, but there is none of the wildness of the traditional sake, and the sweetness and umami of the rice spreads throughout the mouth, making it easy to drink and delicious 😋😋😋😋😋. This brewery is of a very high level, including Purple Space👍.

Kansai Sake-new Year's Party (5) The label doesn't say, but there must have been a nama-shu sticker on it. More refreshing and easier to drink than the ones I've had in the past. I don't think I would buy it myself because it's pretty dry if you look at the sake level 🙄.

It is a Kikumori Junmai-shu (Junmai sake) intoxicating. It is rather refreshing, light, and easy to drink. Is the Kikumori feeling weak?

Ψ(∇)Ψ🍶🍶🍶🍶 This is the first brand of Fukui Prefecture's Fuku-Chitose. It has a mild aroma and when you drink it, it is light and dry and crisp. It is a delicious taste✨.

Japanese>English

The first bottle we opened at the beginning of the New Year was a bottle of "Fuku Chitose Namae Junmai Dry Taste" brewed with the prefecture's original sake rice "Sakahomare", which was grown in Fukui. This is the third time this season that sake made with Sakahomare has been brewed. The sake brewery says that this is the third year they have brewed this sake, not the third year of honesty, but the third year of confidence. The warming sake was recommended, so we tried it lukewarm to finish the saké. The slight warmth of the lukewarm sake matched the umami of the sake, making it a perfect saké to drink with a hot pot on a cold day!

Try something different It's so much wine!

The rice used is Hitogochiki from Nagano Prefecture. Refreshing and crisp aftertaste, just like a summer sake. The sweetness is moderate, but the umami is also present in its own way. It is a sake that needs to be cooled down to the perfect temperature.

Japanese>English

The freshness of the raw materials mellows out the richness of the flavor...!

Japanese>English

Today is my day off, so I took a walk around Sunpu Castle, Kunouzan Toshogu Shrine, and Nihon Taira! I've always wanted to visit Kunouzan and Nihondaira, but the view of the Pacific Ocean and Mt. Fuji from Nihondaira is fantastic👍. On the way home, I took a sip. When I opened the bottle, it had a melon-like aroma. The mouthfeel is refreshing, but the melon-like sweet and astringent taste comes through in a jiffy, giving it a gorgeous flavor. However, the assertion itself gradually settles down and changes to a spiciness, so it is not too heavy for a nama-zake and is easy to drink! Tomorrow is the second half of Shizuoka life. I'll do my best!
