@sakebar Fukuzo This is the last sake I drank at Fukuzo 🍶. For those of you who think "how much have you had to drink? I think so too😅. The first aroma is sweet with classic acidity. It has a full-bodied sweet flavor with a hint of acidity on the palate. It's also a great costumed honjozo that doesn't make you feel like it's been soaked in alcohol 😋. It was delicious 🍶✨. Thank you for everything, landlady 🙇🙇🙇.

# Polishing ratio 60 # 15% alcohol by volume I bought this when I visited a roadside station in Joso the other day. It is quite spicy. I got the impression that she was a very determined young lady 😅. Please note that this is just my personal impression 💦. With today's offerings (grilled barracuda, steamed clams with sake, soba noodles), the sake wins out. It might be perfect with grilled chicken or pork belly stew.

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku and Nihonbare. If I had to describe it in one word, I would say it's "Omnivorous Japanese Sake Partridge". It has an old-fashioned flavor and an aged feeling like a hiyaoroshi. Spicy and sweet in equal measure, with a long finish. It's a sake that should be served warm. By the way, it's "Hiyaoroshi", but it's shipped all year round.

Japanese>English

I learned of the existence of this sake through non non's post. It was a little difficult to go there because you can only buy it at the direct sales place which is open only on weekdays.... It was a nice homey sake brewery 😊. It was limited to 100 bottles and they were the last 3 bottles. It's shwashy, sweet and sour. It may be a daiginjo, but it doesn't taste like yamahai and is easy to drink.

This is my first time in Kumi no Ura. I've only seen it at Isetan Kyoto. It has a fruity aroma, light and refreshingly sweet. It seems to be popular among women. It is different from the impression on the label.

Japanese>English

I drank Kumi no Ura a long time ago, but it made little impression on me. I tried to remember it well this time, but my memory is not so good in this area😅. I think it was dry and refreshing, made with Koshihikari rice.

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023 It is a dry sake with a very thick core flavor and a lot of graininess! If you like strong dry sake, this is the one for you! I was traumatized because I was surrounded by jellyfish when I jumped into Kumihama from the wharf a long time ago. Thank you very much!

On the way home from AND SAKE FUKUOKA I have only had this once before, a bottle of Umezu's "Namahashiroshi". I remember the first time I drank it, the impact of the rice flavor was so strong! Hot sake It was very warm! The umami of rice and the acidity of Namo yeast spread at once. It goes really well with Chinese food. I forgot to add water because the food was so delicious 😂.

Tonight, our first series of impactful jackets here 💁. It's Taxi Driver🚕🚕🚕🚕. It was shipped from the brewery in April this year, but what a H30BY (R0BY) and it's a 5 year aged sake 😆. The aroma of old sake, which also smells like Shaoxing wine, is in full swing from the moment the bottle is opened 🤣. It was served cold, but it is easy to drink because of its acidity. It would be good to drink it warmed up in the fall. ☺️ I wonder if it would go well with Chinese food since it has a Shaoxing sake-like flavor, and I'm going to research how to drink it based on other sakewa reviewers 💪. But it's a very intoxicating drink so I'll stop after one cup 😓.

Japanese>English

First drink. Weak fruity feeling that I didn't imagine from the label that has impact. But it is also full. There is a miscellaneous taste (my personal feeling) like the Yamahai brewing style with low rice polishing, but it is a moderate level, so I feel it is unique. It has just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy my preference for sweetness. I enjoyed it with a plate of delicious sashimi (´ω).

#Akasaka-mitsuke# I entered the second restaurant. This is a restaurant that was not there a few months ago. I wanted to try a drink from here at least once. Let's have it 😚. Slightly spicy? It has a little bit of a tune. I see 🤔 it tastes like this.

Home Drinking with Neighborhood Drinkers We can't drink with a big group yet, but... A little drinking party. This is a sake from a nearby brewery. It is a sake with a good taste.

Japanese>English

Limited production local sake brewed with Teruhi rice harvested from reclaimed fallow rice fields damaged in the 2014 Hiroshima torrential rain disaster🍶. It is named after the Obayashi district where the rice fields are located, with the aim of "making the village prosperous for the next thousand years." Unfortunately, I saw a newspaper article the other day that the brewing of this season's sake was abandoned due to deer-eating damage this year. We are praying for an early revival. The first impression is a fresh aroma and fruity acidity, followed by umami in the back and a slightly spicy aftertaste, which is refreshing and white wine-like 😀. The low rice polishing (85%) and light mouthfeel made it easy to drink 😋.

Japanese>English

Mild sweet and sour aroma Weak chili sensation on the palate Initial attack of sweetness and fresh acidity Sourness derived from lactic acid Soft and mellow sweetness and rice flavor Well balanced with sweetness The edge of the acidity is well balanced with the sweetness.

The sweetness first fills the mouth, and then the tanginess of the alcohol makes it a sake that tastes great when drunk hot, just like old Japanese sake.

I sweated a lot during the day today. To avoid further dehydration after drinking a large bottle of sake, I decided to drink a small bottle today. This is my first time drinking Kotobuki Mangame. As the label says, it tastes sour in the mouth and leaves a bitter taste in the mouth after drinking it down. Is it?

Japanese>English

Rice polishing ratio undisclosed! It has a strong rice flavor! It's light and dry. I had it with cold sake. It goes well with hot days 😆.

Japanese>English

I went to Kameda Brewery while I was in Kamogawa❗️. This is how you read Jumangame😁. This one was a bit alcoholic, but it was also quite refreshing 笞笞 I'm going to let it sit for a few days to see how it tastes 😚

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 🥰.
