Kinmon Nishiki and Hime no Mochi. Local lactic acid bacteria used. The richness of sourness and umami is mellow. It has a rather medium taste.

Carp series we encounter often these days. Today it's the light blue Summer Carp. It is a draft sake made by polishing Nagano rice to 59% and brewed with glutinous rice in a four-stage hot-kettle process. This year, white malted rice was used for some of the malted rice to bring out a more refreshing taste. It has a firm, elegant sweetness reminiscent of cotton candy, white bean jelly fruit punch, lychee, and wasanbon. It also has a mild acidity, and its refreshing taste is truly a carpe for summer!

Japanese>English

I've been encountering them a lot lately. Today we have Orange Carp 🍊. The finish is reminiscent of the sweetness of a tangerine, the acidity and freshness of an orange. It is described as a dry type, yet characterized by a thick, syrupy sweetness and flavor.

I️️ had my first Oniyamama (blue). It was more spicy than the normal Yamama, but the aroma was wonderful and it had a sweetness that was typical of Yamama.

Japanese>English

This is an extra dry version of "Yamama"! While "Yamama" has a sweet taste, "Oni Yamama" has a dry taste. It is said to have a good flavor, and is extremely rich in flavor and umami, with a mellow flavor that overflows in the mouth. Sake rice is Gohyakumangoku and Koshibuki, rice polishing ratio is 70%, and yeast is undisclosed. I had it well chilled ✨. Sake soaks in for the first time in a long time 😆 The acidity and bitterness precedes the taste and leaves a tingling sensation on the tongue. A rich, mellow sake that goes well with any dish👍 I paired it with corn tempura and potato tempura!

Japanese>English

Strong and super dry. It is served with a thicker additive.

Junmai Ginjo 🍶 Henohenomoheji 😅 All of it is made from Yamada Nishiki 🌾 without agricultural chemicals in its own fields. Fairly yellow, strong acidity, matured. Daruma Masamune-like. It's a bit like Daruma Masamune. Surprisingly young freshness as you drink it ✨ matched with grilled wagyu beef ichibo 🐂👍 Umi and @Takadanobaba 20230516

2022BY was served warm. The color is pale yellow. It has a mild, mild, candy-like sweetness and a sharpness accompanied by the acidity of the sake.

Japanese>English

Made with Yamada Nishiki. I chose it because I thought it would be as good as kurozu pork, but it was brilliant. The concentrated flavor spreads in the mouth. It would lose out if it is not served with a strong flavor. If I'm wrong, white sashimi and the like are out.

Maizuru time! Waiting for ferry! M intensity with more umami from mid to final Great pairing to local food

At room temperature Oh, some kind of medicinal celery aroma. Slightly sharp acidity in the mouth. The sweet umami extends a little. Swallow and a slight sweet potato flavor. The spiciness comes later and later, and it feels hot and dry. Classical umami spiciness. This is a good combination with salad of chicken, okra and nuts. Taste level ☆3.5/5

Japanese>English

Sweet aroma and taste Easy to drink because there is no bad taste. It is better to drink it at room temperature than chilled.

(˶ᐢ˶ GW Tohoku Tour Purchases (7) I bought this at Ishidoriya Roadside Station 😀. The taste is gentle on the palate😊Sourness? It's a bit sour but easy to drink 😚 It's a bit sweet but refreshing😇. Today I had Tenho, a local ramen of Nagano prefecture 😋 I had the meat fried ramen🍜 and gyoza🥟😘The light ramen and gyoza went well together🥳Next I will try the dandanmen😙.

Japanese>English

Junmai Daiginjo that is not like Yamada Nishiki. The sweetness is moderate. It takes some time for the flavors to develop. Personally, I've always had the impression that Yamadanishiki has a sweet aftertaste, but the dryness of the flavor reminded me of the diversity of Japanese sake. And even though it's supposed to be a little out of character for my taste, it was a dish that made me drink more! As the temperature rises, the taste is distinctly sweet at first and then dry (and crisp) at the end. It broke the stereotype that Yamada Nishiki is sweet! The brewery started brewing in 1922. The name of the brand was changed from the famous water "Horime-no-Ido" to "Horinoi".

Yamatsuru is the closest sake brewery to my house, but I haven't had much of it lately. The last time I drank it I got the impression that it was peculiar and not really my cup of tea, but not this Junmai Daiginjo! Clear and fruity, good balance of flavors. It's also gorgeous😋. The price is reasonable for a Junmai Daiginjo, but I think it's worth it🧐 I can't underestimate local sake 😚

Japanese>English

Low-polished Junmai-shu from Yamatsuru, a local sake brewery in Ikoma, Nara. The name is Choyao. It was a gift, but it looks like it will cost a fortune💧. I heard it was brewed using a method described in a wooden letter from the Nara period. I wonder if it is true. Anyway, let's try it. Wow! It is indeed as rich and sweet as I had heard! The sake level is a whopping -40❗️ But the aftertaste is refreshing. Surprisingly easy to drink and delicious 😋. It's pretty good 👍I'll have to try this one too 😙. But I wonder if people in the Nara period really enjoyed this kind of sake 🤔.

Since ancient times, people used to throw beans on Setsubun day👹. Before we know it, the custom of eating ehoumaki (rolls wrapped in rice wrapped in eho-maki) has has taken root. Tonight is the moon after the rain. When I open the door, I hear a cheerful sound. The feeling of tight gas 🫧. Aroma like sweet sake Clean sweetness and sharpness ⚡. When you mix the lees, the lactobacillus feeling becomes more intense at once ✨. Light, low-alcoholic taste, so you can gobble it up 😋.
