Monsoon 3

This is the first time I have had kijoshu. It had a sweetness different from anything I had ever had before and was easy to drink.

Japanese>English

This is the third sake of a three-sake drinking comparison at THE CALENDER BIWAKO TOURISM, a standing drinking space that opened on 11/29 at JR Otsu Station in Shiga Prefecture. This is MONSOON, a kijo sake from the Laughing Season Sake Brewery. I love kijo sake. ☺️ Monsoon has three types of sake with different rice: Ginfukiyuki, Tamakoe, and Yamadanishiki, each with a different label depicting an artistic exotic beauty. This time we are drinking the Ginfukiyuki🌾 raw sake type. The aroma is gentle with a hint of sweetness. The rice aroma is also mild. I imagined it to be a bit more floral, but maybe that's because it's from the server. Smooth texture. The sweetness is fluffy, gentle, dark, and beautiful. The acidity is fine and gentle. The wine is smooth, flowing, and has a sharpness that seems to disappear without any change. The lingering finish is long and slightly complex. The taste perfectly matches the image of the woman on the label. It is sweet, but it doesn't linger, and finally disappears like a mirage. This is a bottle I would like to drink at home someday 🍶.

Japanese>English

The first Kijoshu in a long time Laughing season after a long time Because of my work I am very busy at this time of the year The changing of the seasons I didn't even have time to see the autumn leaves. This time, I'm going to make the content more intense and I'm going to shorten the busy season I'm glad I'm in a country where I can feel the four seasons 😋🍶✨✨.

Wakanami Sparkling Price: 1,760 yen (tax included) July 02, 2022 Purchased at Edion Tsutaya Yamada, a sake dealer ㊗️100th Anniversary🎉 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 Next, we opened a bottle of this sparkling wine that we have been curious about for a long time because it is a sparkling wine to celebrate 🤗. Elegant and delicate sweetness and refreshing acidity make for a great drinking experience 🤗. This sparkling sake is perfect chilled as a toast or dessert sake 😋. It was also a great match with the anniversary sake👌. 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Wakanami Sparkling This is probably the third bottle this year. It has a nice aroma and a dry aftertaste. It is great in summer, but goes perfectly with winter dishes. It was better than usual because it was on the lees!

There is clearly more lees than the previous Yamadanishiki. When you take the supernatant first, the taste opens up from the beginning, with a thick umami and sweetness spreading. The Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo reached this state at room temperature, but this one's flavor comes through even at low temperatures. When the lees are stirred, a crisp acidity is added and the aftertaste becomes clear. The full-bodied aroma comes out of the nose, and the taste becomes highly complete at once. This one is also insanely delicious! I've been drinking a lot of Omachi sake lately, and I wonder if this complex and thick sweet flavor is a characteristic of Omachi.

Japanese>English

Yamadanishiki ver. Compared to Omachi's lees sake, it is slightly more lees and has a 1% lower alcohol content (17%). The bottle size is also changed from 500ml for Omachi to No. 4. The aroma is like rice itself and rice malt. The pure sweetness that is typical of Yamadanishiki passes through the nostrils with a slightly thick texture, and there is a slight bitterness that seeps into the tongue. A slight bitterness seeps into the tongue and a tangy sourness on the tip of the tongue. The taste that spreads in multiple directions in the mouth is like a rocket firework. As the day goes by, the acidity will become more rounded and a sense of unity will emerge.

Drink and support 📣 Hokuriku sake This time we will have Nene, a sister brand of Shirakiku from Okunoto! So, be careful! The aroma is full-bodied sweetness derived from grains and elegant and clean acidity. When you taste it, it matches the image of the aroma perfectly! The moderate sweetness and elegant acidity are the best match, and it's extremely delicious! It goes well with food, especially Japanese food 👌 In addition, it has a low alcohol content of 13 degrees, so it goes down smoothly. It was the right decision to buy a bottle! I will drink it with care...

#Otsuka# w/o/a/ta/stone/too/akutsu This is the last round of the meal. We will have zosui (rice porridge) with the best soup stock. At the request of my companion, we had another glass of sake. It is a mellow and gentle sake. It is like taking a breather. It was a great end to the fiscal year ✨. It was a drink that will give me new energy for the next week 🎊🎊.

Japanese>English

Fourth round of drinks with Go-ni-Go-san. Amanurin Tokubetsu Junmai Sake Limited Bottle Enclosure This is also my first time to drink Mie sake! I chose only sake from Tokai region😅. This seems to be a regular sake of Amanurin! After bottling, the sake is matured slowly in the brewery. Mellow and full-flavored with a lot of umami!

Japanese>English

The rice used is Comet from Hokkaido. You can't ignore the sake made with Hokkaido rice, can you? It has a clear and refreshing taste typical of Comet. It has a gentle acidity and a good sharpness, so you can drink it easily. It is well-balanced with a good taste of rice. I️ think it's a versatile sake that can be used in any situation. I have drunk Tenyurin many times, but I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

It is a very good normal sake. It has a sweet and strong flavor, and it is perfect when heated. It has a moderate alcohol content, which is typical of a normal sake. It is a versatile sake that also makes it delicious! I once thought that Kichiemon Nakamura was a great sake because my brother is a Kabuki fanatic, and this sake may have the same weight. If it's a regular sake, I imagine it would be a Junmai sake, and it would be a very bad one at that! I would definitely like to try the junmai sake! Mr. Ota is in Shinjuku! Mr. Ota went to a sake bar in Shinjuku, where the sake was delicious, and to Robeliya, a very deep bar in Shinjuku's Golden Gai. A 30-minute broadcast in two bars is too short!

Today is the annual New Year's Day visit to Kawagoe Naritasan Naritasan, and then to celebrate the golden wedding of my wife's parents. Dinner. The drink menu consisted mainly of wine, but there was also sake on the menu, and Naozane was recommended as a mid-meal drink. The sake was classical and calm, but had a moderate flavor of rice and a sharpness that left a good impression. I would like to try it at home next time.

(o´ω-)b🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I went to Hiroshima 🚅 for work 🎊 for the first time in my life. I ate okonomiyaki, went to an izakaya (Japanese style bar), and at the end, I got the last of a bottle of sake that the owner recommended 😊I got the last of a bottle as a courtesy 😋. It's like a summer sake with a refreshing taste 😚 and a crisp aftertaste 😋. It went well with oysters, small sardines, conger eels and other specialties. ❤️ I'm going to work hard tomorrow and then go back to the liquor store 🥳.

Japanese>English

This is the first sake of the season, It is not supposed to be sold in the local city, so I went to a direct sales place to buy it, Does it taste the same every year? Milky Queen, a little spicier than last year's. I don't remember last year's. Well, I don't even remember last year's, Thank you for the delicious sake again this year. No beer today.

Japanese>English

I went to buy it on the day it went on sale right after the opening of the direct sales store. The spiciness is tangy and tasty, and it tastes good this year, too, I paired it with mainly autumnal ingredients, It all goes well with sake, and a bottle runs out quickly. Now...the new sake is starting to be available, The new sake has started to appear. I am looking forward to it! No beer today.

Purchased at a sake brewery Acidic, tangy and dry in the distance Spiciness increases as the temperature rises. Very heavy and drinkable From the President Shake it before drinking. It wakes up the sleeping yeast and makes it tingle. Please drink it while chilling. Label description: "Pressed carefully without pressurization, leaving natural residues. It has a gentle aroma of banana and grapes. A special cup created by the slightest hint of residues when you touch the bottle."

Japanese>English

Refreshing minty scent 🌿. Light and refreshing🎵 Sour and slightly sweet 😋. Lingering bitterness comes later 😋⚡️ Mild when warmed 😃. Sourness becomes more pronounced: 👍️ The second half of the bottle disappears at once 😲.

A short trip to Boso during summer vacation. We stopped by Inahana Sake Brewery, a small sake brewery in Chonan Town. I asked, "Is there any sake that can only be bought here?" The brewer recommended this one, They recommended this one. 🌸 Junmai Ginjo Minnezakura Unfiltered Nama Zume Genshu 100% Gohyakumangoku produced in Chonan-cho, Chiba Prefecture Yeast: K1401 Alcohol content: 17%. The cherry blossoms in Nomine Park in Chonan-cho were used for the name and label. The aroma is full and slightly melon-like. The mouthfeel is slightly sharp, with a balanced mid-palate that is more umami, The aftertaste is mainly dry and slightly astringent, with a lingering impression. 🏕️ With seafood BBQ at a glamping event... It was a perfect match with scallops and turban shells from Kujukuri! Sake that can only be found in a travel destination and air that can only be experienced in a travel destination. I realized that this is the true pleasure of "local sake and local snacks". Preference score: 7.5/10 Aroma: 1.5｜Mouthfeel: 1.0｜Medium: 1.5｜Final taste: 1.5｜Price: 2.0 👩‍🦰 Wife: 7/10 "I don't remember, but I think this is about right.

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store event, Sake Tour. I compared it with Junmai Ginjo and was impressed with this one, so I bought it. Fresh and citrusy? It is sweet at the beginning, but the sweetness and umami come in the second half of the bottle. I have to admit that I've only seen Hyo Hyohi at department store events. Apparently, the brewery that makes the sake is in Awa City, which is different from the address on the label.

Japanese>English

Dry taste that goes well with chicken on the bone. It washes away the oil from the chicken. A quick sip with a cup of sake will reset your palate from the strong flavors of tsukune, kawa, liver, etc., and you will be ready for the next dish. You will be ready for the next dish in a flat state.

Yamada Nishiki. Gorgeous aroma. It has a light touch with a sharp spiciness behind.
