The first sake was a souvenir from Ibaraki by my eldest son and his wife. A sake with a delicious taste of rice 🍶. Thank you for caring about us❗❗

It is said that the name "Matsuo" was derived from a pine tree in the house, with the hope that the family business would prosper for generations to come, and that Matsuo Taisha, the god of sake, would also flourish. Okabe's sake is very drinkable! As it rolls on the tongue, it is full of flavor and richness, which can be enjoyed both on the tongue and in the throat. The hidden acidity assists the sweetness and spiciness. The 597th one-cup, one-pack festival

The name is humorous. It has a watery, crisp texture, making it suitable as a food wine. On the other hand, the lingering alcohol is easily noticeable.

(*) 🍶🍶🍶🍶 It was hot today, so I had a bottle of Dobrock. It's my first time to drink in Tokyo😙It was separated so I mixed it up and opened the bottle. It was very carbonated and I spilled a lot of water 😛 It was so fizzy it was like pouring cider into a glass. It's not too sweet and the grains of rice are delicious. It's also good on a hot day as it's chilled 😀.

Looks so cool!!! 🤣LOL Not the usual goddess of ministry️. I wonder who she is: ???? LOL! Compared to the standard Hanagumori Clean and refreshing👍. It's a doburoku but it's like eating a fruit. Rice dessert feeling😋. It also refreshes greasy food. The chocolate was delicious too 😚😚

I carefully opened the bottle and it took about 15 minutes. It's a sake that you can eat with your eyes, with the grains of rice usually recognizable. Overall, the strong gaseous feeling gives a swooshing impression, so it's refreshing to drink. I liked it.

Paid tasting, a bit expensive at 400 yen, but the surprising ginjo aroma, muscat-like taste and gentle flavor were delicious. It was nice to see replicas of the display of colored papers of successive prime ministers pasted on the wall, showing their individuality. A web search revealed that Fukubito is I found on the Web that Fukubito was the first sake brewery in Japan established in 1917 as a joint-stock company by investment from sake brewing companies mainly in western Japan.

Purchased during a visit to a brewery in Saijo, Hiroshima. When the bottle was opened, it smelled a little like magic ink. It tastes sweet like white sugar and has a relaxing flavor. It was different from the tasting. It tastes good, but... On the second day, it tastes just like I tasted it at the brewery. It is delicious with well-balanced flavor 😊.

Last Sake on the Second Night of Hiroshima Night It is said to be a limited edition sake for the district. After drinking so much, I honestly don't remember much about it, It's a solid, rich sake. I had the impression that it had a slight rice flavor... I was under the impression that it was a little ricey... Hiroshima Night is now over: ☑️

Refill! Aromatic smell. The aromatic mouthfeel has a perfect balance of sweetness, bitterness, and umami. Although it is rich and has an alcohol content of 19%, there is no taste that sticks to you while drinking it, so you can drink it easily and be satisfied. It is delicious.

Cream, aged smell. The wine has a matured taste, but it is in harmony with the sweetness and is not hard to drink. Full-bodied, umami, stimulated by alcohol and acidity, it is refreshing yet tasty with a strong flavor! I hear that the raw sake smells even better!

Naohiko Noguchi Institute I wanted to try. Smells like caramel and grain. It has a dry, drinkable, honey-like sweetness, a strong flavor, powerful acidity, and a clean aftertaste with enough stimulation to numb the tongue. Delicious. Impact like a whiskey. The official recommendation is to drink it lukewarm (around 40 degrees Celsius). The warmer it is, the less stimulating it is. It is a great match for fish, and the fish becomes twice as good with the support. I should have bought another kind. Second day. The second day was also good.

This is a sake from my hometown - Echizen Ono (Ono City, Fukui Prefecture). It used to be sold at roadside stations, but I looked for it again on my return trip, but I didn't seem to see much of it in the city. I wondered if they are limiting the amount of brewing - or if they are just out of stock. This is the one I found in my parents' fridge. Cool and pungent. A cool spiciness, followed by a nice, clean rice flavor. Then, a strong wave of spiciness hits you. The spiciness swells up while accepting freshness, umami, and sweetness. The intense flavor is intoxicating. After all, Genpei is delicious. I found out that Genpei Shuzo went bankrupt last November, and the direct sales shop was closed. The story of the bankruptcy and revival of the brewery was also seen in the morning drama "Ranman," and I look forward to the time when I can experience the taste of Genpei again.

This is a sake from my hometown - Ono City, Oku-Echizen region, Fukui Prefecture. I bought this sake when I went back home for summer vacation, and it just appeared. It has a sweet aroma that spreads quickly, with a sharp pungency. The sharpness of the spiciness is complemented by the sharpness of the aroma, which reminds me a bit of Western-style sake. It is a country sake, but it is quite gorgeous and sparkling. How about when it is warmed up? The spiciness rushes in like a gust of wind. The spiciness rushes through like a gust of wind, gushing out sweetness and melting away the flavors of the snacks at a torrent-like speed. It is just like spring melt water. The faint scent of vanilla in the aftertaste is also a nice touch. I enjoy the speed and grace.

I was a little curious about it with lots of writing, so I bought it. I heard it was super dry. Hohoho. It has a pungent taste that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes it easy to drink. It has a spiciness that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes you feel like you can drink it without hesitation. Let's try it with meat and fish to see how well it goes with them. The spiciness of the sake also faded when paired with tonteki (pork belly) with sweet and spicy sauce.

National Sake Fair 2025 part69 Yamagata Prefecture 2 Matsuyama Sake Brewery in Sakata City The company name is different from Sake no Wa, but it looks like they changed the name. I've been interested in this brand since I started drinking sake, because I know many bloggers and SNS followers who drink it. Rice polishing ratio 40%, Yamagata sake brewing rice 16%, Sake degree -3.0 Acidity 1.3, 2750 yen Fruity, sweet and delicious. I wish it was available in Kansai! Looking at the list, there were many breweries in Yamagata that brought high-priced sake. We gave up after 2 breweries because we didn't have time! There are still a lot of breweries on the list that I don't know about💦. Next stop: Hokkaido!

I found Hiyayogoshi at the liquor store in the supermarket where I went to buy food. I bought it without a second thought😅. It is dry but you can taste the umami of the rice. It's delicious in its own way, but my palate is craving for something more refreshing 😅.
