I'm at my new place today! We had a glass of local sake at the busi-hotel to pray for a new start👍. The mouthfeel is surprisingly soft and the flavor in the mouth is like custard cream or banana au lait! The texture is also soft on the tongue. I think I may have never tasted such a soft sake! And there is a mushroom-like taste in the aftertaste. There was also a sake from my new job, but I didn't dare to drink it. I'll leave it for the future 😌.

Sometimes a cup of sake, a Niigata souvenir 🍶Classic taste, but with a surprisingly refreshing aftertaste 😋Thanks for the delicious taste!

Japanese>English

Ofuku Sake Brewery is located in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, near the entrance to the former Yamakoshi Village. This kind of I have often drunk it in a glass one-cup cup, but it is now in an aluminum can. There may be a difference in the mouthfeel of the container, but the taste is a classic, slightly umami-ish standard sake, but it feels smooth. The second image is a view of terraced rice paddies (tanaike) in the former Yamakoshi Village.

Ofuku Masamune Junmai Daiginjo. On September 20, I participated in the Echigo Nagaoka Sake-no-Ten (Echigo Nagaoka Sake Festival) and stayed overnight in Nagaoka. The aroma is subdued, but when you put it in your mouth, it tastes sweet and sour like white grapes. Sweet and not too sweet...the exquisite sugar content keeps my sake cup full. Well, however, it was truly a sake-soaked time. I drank so much yesterday that I gave up tasting in the hotel's guest lounge. And today we drank again at the Yoshinogawa museum and at the Ponshu-kan in Echigo Yuzawa. That was fun.

- 惡̀ ♡ 惡́- The 40th anniversary of the release of Women's Cry 2020 A gorgeous and dignified bottle that is sure to be a hit with the ladies. It also goes well with Western food🍴 This is one of my favorite brands of Shizuoka local sake!

Japanese>English

New Year's sake (2) - Women's tears When I went back to my parents' house, my father bought this sake. It seemed to be a recommendation from Aoki Shoten. With all due respect, I had never heard of this sake and it was unknown to me. When I opened the bottle, there was not much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness and gradually start to feel the alcohol, and it ends up being dry. From the naming, you would expect it to be intensely dry. It is easy to drink. There are still many sake that I do not know about, and sake is very deep.

Japanese>English

It is refreshing and yet delicious. It has an aroma of rice and is very tasty. This is the second time I have tasted this sake since I had it last year in Shizuoka. I am currently exploring the izakayas in front of Matsumoto station. But it will cost me a lot, so I'll keep it moderate. A teishoku-ya (set meal restaurant) that we had been curious about near Tai Man's well has moved to the second floor of Moriyoshi. We were able to have a drink at the opening celebration. The accessories decorated inside the restaurant and the waitresses' outfits are cute. But the manager is the cutest of all. You can also drink Gokotsuru. It's a good thing.

Hakkeikubiki is a series of the eight blessings of Kakizaki: sun, water, earth, sky, wind, trees, snow, and people. This is wind. Come to think of it, it was windy in Kakizaki. This is the second bottle from the Sake Rice Study Group. The sake rice is locally grown Koshitanrei. The aroma is light, but has the gorgeous flavor of a daiginjo. The taste is very broad. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

Daiginjo. The moment it enters the mouth, it gives the impression of soft sweetness, but it is clean and goes away. It has a light mouthfeel, and although it does not have any distinctive characteristics, it does not interfere with the meal and is very easy to drink. It went well with spring wild vegetable tempura. It is a sake with a high degree of perfection. The sweetness seems to increase as the day goes by.

Slightly more refreshing Much more gorgeous and gorgeous sake

Memorandum. This is another favorite local drink. Summer, After having accomplished a lot of big challenges in June for me. I wanted to take a breather and reset. A crisp, dry, unpasteurized sake. It works well. I should be able to get eggplant. It was such a good sake for the evening. Sasanishiki from Ichihasama. Suki. I prefer the green hode nasu in winter, though.

Japanese>English

It is a local sake, but I first heard about it through "Sake-no-wa" and bought it at a sake store in the northern part of the prefecture. My daughter bought it at Fujiwaraya in Sendai Station a couple of times before she got married. Strangely enough, I could not remember any other person's sake. 　It has a fruity aroma and taste like peaches, with a nice sharp aftertaste. (Mrs. Fujinami's impression) 　It was too rich for me and I did not understand it well. It became easier to drink when I tried it on the rocks.

Japanese>English

Summer version of hode nasu 🍆. First time I've ever purchased summer ✨. It's completely different from the winter version, crispy 😳 almost no acidity! I prepared a steak with the winter flavor, but I ate it with yesterday's leftover mansaku and ate the hode nasu with edamame and cucumbers 😅. Hode nasu in summer is more like sushi or pickles than meat 🤔.

This Sake has a full mouth feel and some sweetness at the beginning. The flavor of this Sake is bigger than other Seitoku Sake but it still has good balance. Very good with big flavor foods like mapo tofu.

This Sake has an initial sweetness and a full mouth feel. There is a hint of cedar as the alcohol clears my pallet. Very good with big flavor foods like yakiniku. Seitoku has many Sake that I enjoy.

This Sake is light, refreshing and easy to drink. I am revisiting this Sake because it has been a while since I last drank it. I enjoy the mild flavors of apple and melon with a clean, short aftertaste. This is a refreshing and well balanced Sake.

It is -4 and sweet, but the taste of the rice is perfect and delicious!

Faint ginjo aroma✨ A sip will leave you with just the right amount of spiciness and sharpness 🥰. This is a food sake, but it has a delicious flavor that doesn't interfere with the ingredients 😌. I rarely drink outside, but this one was delicious 🥰. The disadvantage of drinking it in a restaurant is that you can't taste the flavor immediately after opening the bottle... and you can't tell how it changes the next day or later 😭. The sake I got this time was a bottle and there were only a few bottles left, so there is a high possibility that the taste has changed since the bottle was opened 💧... 💧. And, well, it's impossible for me to drink it in a restaurant... but I have an inquisitive mind as a sake lover 🤭 lol

The gentle sweetness comes from the natural glucose produced from rice. The fruity aroma and sourness reminiscent of fruit juice are key points. The burst of carbonation is refreshing, just like champagne. You may wonder, "How can rice alone taste like this?" You may wonder... This is a "new sensation" sake. Let's taste the new sensation together. Once you try it, you will be addicted to the taste. Rice used: 100% Akita-Komachi Rice polishing ratio: 65 Alcohol content: 7 to 8 degrees Content: 280ml

I saw a lot of Shuyoshi's La Chante at a souvenir shop in Akita. It was stored at room temperature in the sun, so I bought the one from the liquor store's refrigerator. I don't know whether it was made for sake lovers or wine lovers, but it was interesting. The Akita Sour was expensive, but it was okay. The miso macaroon from Kakunodate was delicious!

Sweet. Like sparkling wine.
