( -̀ᴗ-́ ) ̖́-🍶🍶🍶🍶 Sake Marche 2023 Part 2 We had sake from Kuze Sake Brewery, the closest sake brewery to my parents' house 😋. Amber-colored Daiginjo ✨with a rich rice flavor😊It's a traditional sake 😚👍It has a robust flavor, but the aftertaste disappears quickly😇. I felt like it was a sake to be enjoyed by itself and sipped slowly 🥳.

GW in Kanazawa! At the Kanazawa Sake Brewery in Kanazawa Station, we came across a dream machine that allowed us to sample sake for 100 or 300 yen (P.S.) Naturally, we took the challenge. The description said it was dry, but I prefer raw sake, so I chose this one. I tasted it thinking it might be a fruity type, but it was a clear dry sake that would go well with sashimi and other dishes. I appreciate free tastings, but I feel somewhat guilty about it, so this kind of reasonably priced tasting is very helpful and encourages me to try different kinds. I tasted three other types of sake here, and all of them seemed dry to me. I have an image that Ishikawa's sake is basically dry.

Alcoholic beverages sent through crowdfunding I think I prefer it to the other bottle, Jungin, because it has a more pronounced sense of maturity.

This is a sake that the young brewer of Kanbokuto Shuzo challenged to make Junmai Ginjo sake with Gin no Sato and No.7 yeast. It is said to be a limited edition. It has a fruity aroma, a moderate acidity, and a freshness and sweetness that is easy to drink. I often visit the Kanbokuto Sake Brewery and have this sake as my personal favorite sake, but compared to the other sake on sale, the taste is so different that you would think it is from a different brewery.

Sake from a brewery famous for Ryujinmaru. It has been a very long time since Kirakuri. After Shikishima, tkmts-san was drinking Ryujinmaru, and I wanted to try something of Takagaki-san's sake, so I chose Kirakuri. This time it was an unfiltered raw Nakadori. It has a caramelized taste with sweetness and a sense of maturity. It's just a coincidence that there is a succession of sakes with a sense of maturity, such as Washin, Shikishima, and Kirakuri.
Japanese

English
If you drink Ryujinmaru I want to compare the Takagaki sake brewery ⁉️ So I compared with Kirari 😆. The aroma of this one is also very robust 😳 This one is a little more refreshing. The mouthfeel is quite heavy for a recent sake, but lighter than the Ryujinmaru we drank earlier. The sharpness also has a rummy feel to it and is more refreshing than the Ryujinmaru, but I think this one has more of a cloying aftertaste. I think so. When compared, I think they are lighter, but they are both quite heavy sakes 🍶. Along with the drinking comparison, I also compared Rasho from Ushiku and Yamaokaya from Ushiku. Well, there is no comparison because they have completely different tastes 🤣. Both are addictive and delicious 🍜.

Another brand of Takagaki Shuzo, which brews Ryujinmaru Mild ginjo aroma with a hint of brown sugar and caramel behind the graininess. Soft and smooth on the palate, with a voluptuous sweetness that spreads and tightens with a refreshing acidity. When warmed to human body temperature, the acidity becomes more pronounced and the flavor sharper. The robust taste makes it a good match for stewed dishes.

This one was given to me in return for sake I sent to my boss, and it's my first Fukuoka Prefecture sake! I didn't know what to choose when it came to Fukuoka sake, so I'm very grateful to be able to drink it in this form! It is a well-balanced and delicious sake. The most wonderful thing about this sake is that it is fire-aged, so it is hard to lose this flavor. It tastes great even after a few days. Although there is sweetness, it does not bother you too much because the main flavor is umami. What is this feeling of being able to drink without getting tired of it? It is not so much sourness, bitterness, or astringency, and it is strange that it is smooth but somehow deep and earthy. Actually, I forgot to post this post after drinking it, but I had this one for New Year's Day. This kind of aromatic and light sake was definitely a good match for Japanese dishes like Osechi. My first Fukuoka sake was a simple and good sake.

Sannomaru Autumn hiyaoroshi from Kaito Otokoyama Shuzo. There is almost no standing aroma, but the hint of aroma is pear. It is a junmai sake that was fire-aged before storage and bottled fresh. It has a rich flavor, but it is still fresh, so it is not hard to drink and before you know it, you will be back for more.

Rice used is unknown There is a bunch! It has a very "Yamahaku" feeling. The sense of maturity is also there. The taste is dry, but the sweetness is spreading on the tongue. The sharpness is not bad either. As the temperature rises, it becomes milder. This type of sake tastes better when it is not too cold.

A friend of mine who is a fisherman landed it in Katsuura, Wakayama and gave it to me as a souvenir. It has a classic flavor with a subdued smell, but it goes well with sashimi and kakiage (deep fried shrimp), and is easy to drink. I warmed up about 1 gou of the sake, which I enjoyed, but the two fishermen said they preferred it cold. Thank you very much!

😁. We were here for snow fencing at a ski lodge that we take care of in the winter. We will work a little in the morning, relax at Nagano station and go home. I will ask for a sake tasting set ☺️. The rightmost one is today's sake, Kisoji hiyaoroshi. The aroma is very strong and the taste is stable. You can tell how delicious the rice is. Delicious. Now, I'm going home to buy Gokotsuru. My back hurts from carrying so much stuff with bad posture💦.

7 points (wife: 6.5 points) Ingredients : rice (domestic rice), rice malt, brewing alcohol Sake meter : ±0 Alcohol percentage : 15 Acidity : 1.2 Rice polishing ratio: 65 Amino acidity: 1.6 Yeast: Kumamoto yeast (Kyokai No. 9) Store Hakata Motsu Nabe YAMAYA Sapporo Ekimae Dori Store Slightly apple-like aroma on the top. The same mild aroma as the first sip, the firm umami of rice spreads gradually with a plump sweetness and fine acidity, and is quickly quenched by the spiciness of the alcohol and a moderate bitterness. While the umami of the rice is firm, the dryness of the alcohol in the latter half makes it easy to drink. This sake has a somewhat classical impression. It is better to drink it with a meal than on its own. It goes well with motsu nabe and cod roe dishes.

I bought it in Kumamoto during my Shikoku - Kyushu - Kinki trip last year. It was a brand I wanted to try at least once, and I was so happy that I let it sit for more than a year. When I opened the bottle and poured it, it smelled like honey and custard. The mouthfeel is moist and sweet. It has a savory, caramel-like flavor and a balance of sweet and sour astringency. It is so delicious that you can't help but smile! The full-bodied sweetness and bitter astringency in the aftertaste. The taste is not too strong, but has a high level of quality, and is very similar to a pudding! I will never forget the delicious sake, ramen and Kumamoto Castle, even if it was only for a short time. I hope to visit again someday👍.
