Tonight, our first series of this brand from Oshu City, Iwate Prefecture. Okuroku Junmai Ginjo-shu Namahashime Unite 2023BY✨. The aroma is a mild, almost odorless barb 🌿 The taste has a pleasant acidity and sweetness on the attack, with a nice, nourishing umami flavor. The second half is quite sharp with a pungent alcohol taste lingering in the back of the throat. It was very perfect as a food wine 😋😋😋😋.

Drunken Garden in Azumino, Shinshu. I was curious to buy it because it is 59% Hitogokochi, a Nagano Prefecture sake. As the label says, it is a refreshing sake with a delicious flavor. It is not at the top level of popular Nagano sake, but it has a glimpse of Nagano's sake character.

Amano Sake Grand Sake Party(*) This is Amano sake's summer product. It has the core strength of the original sake and is spicy! I think it falls into the slightly dry category Amano Sake is not seen at all within the range of my activities. I was surprised to see Kuninonaga Junmai Ginjo on sale at a nearby 7-Eleven.

(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.
