@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 🙇🙇🙇.

Moved to the corner of Matsuzaki in Kawagoe. This is my first time at the fashionable Yellow Cherry Blossom. It is easy to drink and refreshing. It is the opposite of Kappa's sake. The reason why I couldn't feel the Aizan sensation must be because I was drunk.

Autumn Dyed with Niigata Sake (4) This autumn, we are holding a campaign on our own initiative to dye ourselves in Niigata sake. Echigo Toji Honjozo This sake was recommended by bouken, Nemuchi, and Sakélan advisors at the Niigata Sake Festival held at Abeno Harukas. It was recommended by all three as the No. 1 sake that I would drink at the event, so I went back to Abeno Harukas on the last day 🍶💨. The color is almost crystal. The top aroma is milky with a hint of caramel. The mouthfeel is light and smooth. The taste is a nostalgic sweetness and umami like fine milk caramel that flows gently and smoothly. When heated, the milk caramel flavor increases and the taste is refreshing. It has a classic flavor, It is a delicious sake with a light, milky sweetness and umami that is easy to drink, with a smoothness that reminds one of the softness of Niigata's melted snow water. After all, this is the kind of sake that you want to drink at the end of the day! The selection ability of the three heavyweight members of the group is superb 😊. The Niigata Sake Fair is still going on.

Purchased at Niigata Sake no Jin OSAKA It looks like it's only sold 3㌥ all year round, but I couldn't find it on the website💦. When I tasted it, I got the impression it was bitter, but it tasted quite sweet. Maybe because it's not on its own, but during a meal? I got the impression that it was a little strong on alcohol. But my overall impression is that it's easy to drink. I have a much better impression when drinking it at home than when tasting it 😍. I think it will show its full potential during a meal 😋. The mild syrupy sweetness is addictive!

We opened a bottle of this Niigata sake. It is gorgeous and elegant, I would say, but in this day of various drinks, it lacks punch and has a thin image. With truffle rice balls to finish. Alcohol content 14%. IngredientsRice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic) Rice polishing ratio 55

Rather refreshing, spicy afterwards

Japanese>English

Koshikoi, light, dry Rice polishing ratio: unknown Rice used: Domestic Alcohol content: 14 The basic premise is that it is delicious, but.., It is not as good as Jin-yuu, which is my favorite (and I have made it my icon), but it has the feeling of a rumbling sensation in the throat afterwards. But it is not as dry as Niiyu, which is my main favorite (icon), but it gives me a feeling of being thirst-quenched afterwards. (Is it because of the low alcohol content?). So far, I have yet to find a sake that surpasses the iconic Niiyu.

( ⑉¯ ⑉ )🍶🍶🍶🍶+ Today I received a gift of sake called Kansai 😀 This is a brand I have never heard of before 😊It seems to be a popular sake often drunk in Fukui. When I drank it, I found it to be a strong style of traditional sake 😚 with a good balance of flavor, sweetness, and bitterness, and it was thick 🥰It was like an all-purpose sake 🤤.

Japanese>English

Drinking out after a long time, a dinner party with the whole family It was a chilly autumn night, so we had some local sake hot. The soft taste on the palate and the heat from the warmed sake filled our bodies! This Kansai hot sake, which is easy to drink and has no quirks, has become my standard for comparing hot sake. The image of the bottle is borrowed from the official website.

The other day, my dad and I went to my parents' house for a long time. We started with beer 🍺, then I brought the rest of the "True White" that I had opened the other day, and my dad brought out some sake that had been laying around for a while, so we had a drink here 🍶. Kansai Junmai Sake. I often drink "Kansai Kaisen" hot, but this is my first time to drink Junmai Sake 🤔. Clean and beautiful rice aroma, rounded flavor and refreshingly pleasant aftertaste, probably due to the cellaring. The taste is different from Katayama's other brand "Gassa Junmai Ginjo", but it's hard to tell how much of it is due to the aging process 💦. However, I have a feeling it would make a beautiful hot sake when heated. By the way, when I gave "True White" to my father, he said it was too sweet, but when my mother drank it, she said it was delicious 😁. The fourth picture is from a trip to Atsuta Jingu Shrine in Nagoya, where I lived for two years after graduating from high school, to purify my car and eat Hitsumabushi. ［It was my first time to eat at "Unagi Owada" because "Atsuta Horaiken" was closed, but the sauce was much lighter than this one.

OSAKA-JO SAKE SQUARE 2023(´¦) Very sharp and refreshing, a dry sake with a thick body that is not light. A junmai sake that tastes great chilled. No strong character, but good for everyday drinking I imagined that Frog's ginjo-nama-zake next to it would also be good, but my weak liver stopped screaming and I gave up on it! See you again, Mr. Frog!

The people dancing to the KUWATA BAND medley on the way home seemed to be having a good time! For some reason, they were so well prepared that they brought their own happi (happy coats)! It was wonderful that they were giving it their all! After all, the Tenma Taishukai is unique!
