Birthday gift alcohol, Part 2 It's called Sake no Wawa 50 check in. Ibaraki sake that Manachie hasn't had yetπ. It's clear, light, a little bitter and has quite a bit of sake feel to it. A little graininess. It is good to drink with soda or on the rocks. The more you drink red rice or ancient rice sake, the more you realize the greatness of Ine Mangaka π€.

It has been a while since I went to eat Sara-soba! Soba on 5 small flat plates with wasabi, leek, yam, and egg as condiments to change the tasteβͺ It was cold and I wanted to drink heated sake! We were told that there was only one type of heated sake, so we decided without hesitation! The sake was heated in a tokkuri (sake bottle) with an Otsu-e painting on it and an inokuchi (sake cup). When drunk alone, the sake has a strong flavor of rice, but when paired with dishes with strong flavors and fat, such as soba noodles, duck roast, and mackerel sushi, it goes very well with them! I was happy to drink a little from noon. β£οΈ

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 π.

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: βοΈ

It is a souvenir of Kusatsu from his father. It was a refreshing, slightly spicy sake with a hint of sweetness. I think it can be served warmed.

It has a samurai-like design and a blood splattering color, and it has a sake level of +15! I couldn't help but be curious about this one, so I bought it! When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was dry. It also has a savory aroma like steamed rice. The dry, light flavor and the richness of Junmai are well balanced on the palate, giving it a slippery sensation. The acidity also makes it taste slightly citrus-like π. It smells like ginjo, and in a good way, it is not like Junmai! The aftertaste is also refreshing and easy to drink from start to finishπ. I thought it would be a simple dry sake, but it was surprisingly fruity and refreshingly delicious!

It has a refreshing green apple-like flavor and fades quickly. As the day goes by, the flavor also develops and becomes more savory.

As the name suggests, it is recommended for tuna dishes, so we paired it with tuna negima nabe. It is a rich, sweet-umami type of wine that is delicious on its own. Of course, it also goes well with tuna dishes ππ.

οΌ»Fukui Spring New Sake Festival (6) Next, visitors can enjoy a glass of sake from their own local brewery. Hanashoku Junmai Daiginjo Betsuatsurae The aroma is like grapes with a hint of sourness, the mouthfeel is clean and sweet with a pleasant aftertaste, and there is a lingering bitterness in the back of the throat. I bought some salted sea urchin, which is a perfect match for sake, but is usually hard to find. The taste was so agonizing that it made me want to drink more sake. I think if I recommend [salted sea urchin] to people outside of the prefecture, they will be puzzled how to eat it π€.

This month we had a lot of drinking outside, so it's been a while since I've had a drink at home! I got a bottle of summer sake "Kashoku", which is rarely seen even in my hometown, because there was some left at the liquor store! The mouthfeel is sweet with a refreshing acidity, and the mellow aroma lingers until the end. It seems that more emphasis is placed on the mellow aroma than on the refreshing taste! Although it is a summer sake, it is a perfect bottle for long nights in autumn. I felt it has the potential to be as good as many dishes in the autumn season of taste.
