#Otsuka# w/o/as/ta/ishi/to/akutsu Next, we were told that yellowtail radish would be served. We had this one. It is a solid sake 🤔. It also has a full-bodied flavor. A good combination ✨.

Japanese>English

#Otsuka# W small/hori I wanted something sweet, so I went for the nigori type... I didn't feel much sweetness and it left a pungent taste😅. Well, it's good because it tastes good👍

Japanese>English

Rice used is Dewanosato At first sip, I thought, "This is delicious! This is quite a talented brewer. The moment you take a sip, the banana-like sweetness spreads, with a good amount of bitterness in the aftertaste. It is not gorgeous, but the atmosphere is calm and serene from start to finish. It is a nice and classy sake and I liked it❣️.

It is a Honored Ikegetsu Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki 40 Nao-kumi Nakadori Mukuratori Mafiltered Nama Genshu. It is my first time to try this brewery, but the owner recommended it to me. It is sweet, umami and sour, and I felt it was a little thick. It is a delicious sake.

The ones that are not on the menu. There is a Chiyoda Kura and a Yukihikoyama, both unopened. I decided to go with Chiyoda Kura because I thought I could buy Yukihikoyama at a liquor store in my neighborhood. The taste is moderately sweet and tasty with a summery, crisp, spicy flavor. The impression is that it is quite sharp and clean.

Japanese>English

The aroma is modest for a daiginjo❗️. It has a clean taste, but It has a unique sweetness and aroma 😅 I wonder if it tastes like fukunohana❓ I guess it's good to drink as a food sake. It's a raw sake so I'd like to let it sit for a while and see how it tastes. I'm hoping for a change in taste❗️😊.

Japanese>English

At the tasting. It was sweet like a rich ripe fruit. It was good, but the one that was for sale seemed to have different specifications (I think it was a direct brew of special junmai?). No purchase.

I have a new impression of Ehime sake 😁. I had never had much Ehime sake before, but I had an image of it being somewhat mellow and dry. This sake is completely different, it is light and slightly acidic, and together with the bitterness in the aftertaste, it is somehow like grapefruit 😊. It also has a bit of a fizzy feel and is very easy to drink as there is no unpleasant spiciness that lingers in the throat 😋. If it were a little more sour, I think I would find it too sour for me, but this level of sourness is just right 😄. I'm only one bottle away from the nationwide domination of the four-gouple bottles or more limited edition. The last one is in Osaka, when can I achieve it? 😅

Japanese>English

The taste of the rice and the fruity taste can be felt, but it is not too dense. A pleasant sourness. There is also a feeling of juicy melon. The rice is Matsuyama Mitsui.

Japanese>English

Sake with a strong umami flavor with a sense of rice, easy to pair with a comforting meal.

Kansai Sake-new year party ㉔ After a short cab ride, we went to Chuin-san, familiar to us from Aladdin-san's post. Inokashira, a sake I had never heard of until now😅. The rice used is Hitogokochi. I think it was fresh, fruity and gently sweet 🤔.

Japanese>English

Classic firm aroma. The strong sweetness is not fruity, but the taste of the rice itself. The flavor is also strong. A direction of Hitogokochi that I did not know.

Japanese>English

Fresh, juicy and delicious! Last year's hanpukai gave the impression of being sweet and sour, but this year it's fresher and much easier to drink!

I don't know if the taste is mellowed by being stored at temperatures below 0℃❓I don't know, but it is refreshing and very nice summer sake! I don't know, but it's refreshing and very nice like a summer sake.

Japanese>English

. Last but not least, the cool looking "Jinya" 😎. I think I have a lot more Fukushima sake now 😅✌. It's also very refreshing and comfortable to drink, so I'm sure you won't get tired of drinking it 😋. It also has a little bit of dryness, so it would go well with rich dishes⁉ The last dish we had was Aizu Sauce Katsu-don! It was a little bit too naughty to finish 🤣. There is a very popular Sauce Katsudon restaurant in my town, though it is not in Aizu area ☝. I haven't eaten there recently because it's always crowded 🤔.

Sekizen ‼️, a brand I've been wanting to try. I was curious about the standard label, but The unusual lager shirt label 🏉. The aroma is banana🍌-like for this sake too ❗️ I like the aroma 😊 It's sweet, but a little stronger on the alcohol side. I think it tastes crisp 🤔. It's good as a food sake👍 I'd like to try other Sekizen as well 👍‼️

Japanese>English

#Drinking at home The gentle Miyamanishiki taste can be felt, but the acidity is impressive, perhaps because it is a sake made from a sake brewer's yeast. The astringency and bitterness that comes toward the latter half of the bottle is the same as that of the first sake released from the warehouse and Watabune. It is a stable taste of Doukan.

Sake with a strong umami and acidity. It goes down the throat well and is delicious.

Japanese>English

We used Go To to Echigo Yuzawa. So_1F3D4 brand and Naebayama brand that I don't remember seeing in Tokyo to match the local cuisine of the hotel. Junmai-Ginjo sake with Junmai-Ginjo specifications. The gentle aroma, the sweetness, and the refreshing finish give me the impression that this is a "Niigata's local sake" as I have always imagined it to be. In terms of Niigata brands that you can buy in Tokyo, I'd say it's similar to the Junmai Ginjo specs of Tsurueri or Kubota. If I tasted it, I'd never be able to understand it myself... After all, coming on a trip and pairing it with local food is the best part of local sake 👍.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku and Koshibuki. My first impression was "It's sweet. ❣️ I felt that "Kosu-Mori" was also quite sweet for me, but it seemed more profound than "Kosu-Mori". It is like licking a muscat candy. The finish, however, is crisp with just the right amount of bitterness, so the sweetness doesn't linger and it feels refreshing. It is a delicious drink, but I think it is suitable for different situations.

先月池亀を飲んで黒兜も飲んでみたいなー🙄なんて投稿をしていたのですが、次の日の青山三河屋のインスタに黒兜入荷の告知が😂 早速買ってまいりました。この時期限定の生酒で最近流行りの白麹でも紅麹でもなく黒麹を使っているそうです。上立ち香はほんのりイチゴのシロップ🍓のような甘い香り。口に含むと綺麗な酸味に透明感のある甘味と旨味。仄かな甘味を感じながらスッとキレていく感じ。池亀のお酒は2本目ですが、ここのお酒は透明感をすごく感じますね。美味しかったです🍶✨🐢
