The sake I chose when I returned home for Obon was Gold Junmai Daiginjo by Popular Sake Brewery. This sake brewery is very particular about the traditional method of making sake, and everything is made in wooden vats. It is a junmai daiginjo that is polished to 50%, so there is no cloying taste at all ✨It starts with an elegant sweetness and rice flavor, with the aroma of the wooden vat and a slight bitterness at the end. Delicious 😊.

Japanese>English

Clean and easy to drink. It has a lychee-like aroma and a banana-like sweetness. It's dry on the throat, but you can feel the sourness and sweetness. I personally like it better when the temperature rises a little and it's closer to room temperature.

Well-balanced dry sake. Delicious with horse mackerel sashimi!

Kikusui Shuzo Junmai Ginjo Tsumugi. The aroma is mild but fruity. It is a delicious sake with a sweet flavor and a bitter taste at the end. It is aged in a tunnel at low temperature.

Third of five drinks 🍶.

Sake-like sake, but a little thin. However, it is refreshing and easy to drink. When you roll it around, the flavor comes out unexpectedly. The aftertaste is quite strong.

Record of 2021/7/20 Gunma Cup Classic sake with the taste of rice.

Japanese>English

This is the last Maikaze series for this year. It's been quite a while, but we'll be having "Mt. Haruna" for the last time! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a relaxing sweet aroma. It has a peachy aroma. It also has a slightly banana-like flavor. The palate is smooth, as is typical of Gunma sake, with a slight sweetness that is typical of "Maifu" and a nice astringent taste that plays an active role in the background! The astringency also gives it a mineral taste, which I personally feel is similar to the "Tenpyo Junmai" that I drank before👍. In the latter half, the astringency becomes the main taste, which reminds me of grapefruit. It melts away at the end, so it goes down smoothly! I've enjoyed many Maikaze series this year, including "Akagisan"✨I'm looking forward to next year!

Miyakanbai's PB brand Miyamanishiki 55% Koji, Manamusume 65% Kake The aroma is rather subdued, but it has a clean, fruity aroma of white peaches, pears and apples. The taste is juicy and sweet like honey apple, just like drinking fruit juice! The alcohol content is a little strong, but it is easy to drink with a pleasant, refreshing aftertaste. It is as beautiful and delicious as one would expect from Miyakanbai.

Japanese>English

It has a fresh fruity aroma. The sharpness is also quite good. Personally, I prefer Miyakanbai Junmai Ginjo.

Junmai-shu, domestic rice 65%, 15%. Aroma and slight sweetness. It is a little short, but the exquisite sweetness makes it easy to drink. 85%.

The 8th SAKE Fes🍶 2 Days to Find Your Recommended Sake in Yurakucho Sasanogawa Shunka Shuzo Daiginjyo Nama-genshu

Japanese>English

☀️ The 8th SAKE festival in Yurakucho. They use a device that freezes the product as soon as it is squeezed. The name of the machine is liquid freezing machine "Frozen sleep" 💤. I heard they also use it for Otter Festival and Toyo Bijin 🤔. It's sake 🍶. It is nigori, so the flavor of rice is strong. But it's milder than other nigori so it's easy to drink 😊. I didn't understand the greatness of frozen sleep.... I might have to compare the non-frozen version to find out 😆. I wish it would be more popular 🤗

It was my son's birthday earlier this month, so we went to Nagano Prefecture for a visit during this holiday weekend! I think I have been to Nagano Prefecture a hundred times, but this was my first time in Nagano City. I found a great liquor store called "Shinshu Kuraudo" in the very magnificent Nagano station 💡. They have sake from all over Nagano 😘. They also have a corner shop, so if I hadn't come by car, I would have gone in there lol. A cute bear wearing an apple 🍎. The kids picked out a cup of sake with a cute illustration of Alkuma-chan 🍶. The taste was very refreshing! It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a crisp aftertaste. It's very easy to drink and has no habits, so if you're traveling by Shinkansen, this is definitely the one you want to drink on the train on the way home. I bought a few other bottles, so I'm looking forward to opening them 😊.

So sorry, so sorry... 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Nagano Business Trip Part ㊹ Tomorrow is the last night of my business trip to Nagano 🌃 as I have to pack up and head back to Ishikawa Prefecture 😀 44 check-ins 🎉 for Nagano's business trip sake. The last day in Suwa, I bought a cup of Alkuma which I don't remember when I bought it 😇. The aroma is mild and not very noticeable, but on the palate it has a gentle rice 🌾 flavor and sweetness😊 followed by a nice crisp acidity 😚👍This is a delicious sake 🥳. The label said "Don't drink too much!" but it was so good that it killed me instantly 🤣. The fourth picture is of lunch with my junior staff at the end of a business trip to Nagano 😊Tonkatsu Maruichi is famous in Suwa. It's hard to tell from the photo, but the meat is 3~4cm thick, but it was tender and full of juices 🥰.

Shizuoka Sake Tour. Gotemba's Kinmei Ryotama Junmai Ginjo, alc.16%. When served in the refrigerator, it has a subtle cider-like aroma. The aroma does not change much in the mouth, and after the alcohol and weak acidity, the umami of rice comes easily. The aftertaste is stimulated by alcohol, but it is not an unpleasant attack, but rather a strange numbing sensation and heat. There is no significant change even when the temperature is set to room temperature. Should we wait a few days? Two days later, the alcoholic stimulation has disappeared, and the umami of the rice has become noticeably mellower. The aroma is still cider-like, so the overall impression is that it is a cross between sake and mead. This is good.

At Fujioka Izakaya 3/4

We went on a bullet trip to a hot spring in Gunma 😆♨️ Before arriving at the ryokan, we went to a local liquor store. I decided to buy some Gunma sake at a local liquor store before we arrived at the ryokan! I was so excited, I visited Takahashi Yo Shoten for the first time, which I sometimes order from Corona Disaster! I visited Takahashi Yoh Shoten for the first time! I found a bottle of sake that I had ordered before and was very impressed. The Gan brewed by Mikito Takai, who is no longer with the company, was really delicious, so I chose the New Gan with the feeling that I would like to try it too. I was surprised to find that it was brewed by Mikito Takai! And it's still delicious 😭✨ It was great slightly chilled, but also great warmed 👍. Not spectacular, but deeply delicious... And it's so cosy! I brought home the rest of the bottle. I'm going to drink it with care 🍶🎶.

☀️ This is the first time I've seen a drink without a label 🏷️. Instead it has a ribbon🎀 which makes it unique 🤩. There is an initial feeling of alcohol, but it is quickly followed by a sweetness. Soft sweetness with a melon flavor. It can be fluffed up as it is. A sake that tastes as unique as it looks 🍶.

Japanese>English

Leaving the new sake festival, we went to the second restaurant. The second party was at a soba restaurant on the restaurant floor of Amu Plaza Kumamoto, adjacent to the station. This soba restaurant has a great selection of sake 😁. The price is... no way 🤣. The second drink was Shashaemon I had this sake at this restaurant before, but I couldn't remember what it tasted like, so I ordered it. The moment I put it in my mouth, the gorgeous aroma spreads and sweetness, sourness, umami, and spiciness all come at once 😳. This feeling is like no other 😁. You can enjoy this on its own or as a food sake 🥰.
