(˶ᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶🍶 Purchased on a tour of Tohoku (9) I bought this at the brewery of Shiuchu Sake Brewery 😀. The aroma is mild😊the overall feeling is light and committed to the food 😚👍. The fourth one I went to Morioka Hachimangu shrine😊I drew a golden tai-mikuji 🥳I hope to go back next year on my tour of Iwate Prefecture🔥.

Limited once a year project. Shibori this morning (^^) 100% Gin-Otome from Iwate Prefecture. Gorgeous aroma. Fresh, clean and crisp taste. Goes well with cheese and cured ham.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we will finally enjoy a very tasty "Shiuchu" and another brand "Hiroki" spring sake from the same brewery 🤗. This is the first time I've heard of a brewing method called "sanki amazakamoto". It is said to be a technique to bring out the flavor of the rice. The aroma and taste are gentle and slightly lactic, but there is none of the wildness of the traditional sake, and the sweetness and umami of the rice spreads throughout the mouth, making it easy to drink and delicious 😋😋😋😋😋. This brewery is of a very high level, including Purple Space👍.

I've always been curious about it because I often see it at Takashimaya, but this is my first time to drink it. The rice is Asahi rice and Yamadanishiki. It is fresh and has a strong sweet flavor, but the aroma and taste are a bit unique. I also feel a bit of hardness. I'll give it some more time and see how it goes. Apple and honey-like sweetness with a sense of thickening.

Japanese>English

Fruity with a gorgeous aroma. Sweet, juicy and a little bitter at the end. It's really tasty. I drink Takebayashi more often at events than at home, but I never miss it.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ It is heated to a high temperature. It's what I call a good heated sake. It's just plain good.

At home. This is the first time I've had sake from Hokkaido. I thought that Hokkaido's sake was more alcoholic, but it was completely different. You can feel the sweetness of the rice, and there is a bitter taste at the end. It is a refreshing type and very easy to drink. We received a lot of sake from Hokkaido, so we will try to taste and upload it little by little.

A Drink to Remember Series (5) In the early summer of 2015, I planned to take my car on a ferry to Wakkanai, Hokkaido, and when I arrived safely in Wakkanai, I had a drink at a yakitori restaurant for the first time in my life 🍶. The memory reminds me of the faint muscat-like aroma and sharp sharp sharpness 😋. The beauty of the label with the brand name, the wish behind the name "Fuyu Hanabi", and the taste of the local sake when you drink it on a trip...it was one of the reasons I became a sake lover 🎵. I still see it at Sake-no-wa from time to time, so I couldn't help but fish it out from old photos 😆. By the way, the picture was taken when I drank it with my family at the New Year's celebration after I returned from my trip. The other bottle in the picture, "Yukikirara", will be introduced another time ✨😉👍️

This is Kitanoshiki Houmon Honjozo. It is a little dry sake, but you can feel the sweetness. It is a delicious sake.

Motobuden-cho, Aisai City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan 3.8 A dry sake with a lingering aftertaste. It doesn't feel like a summer sake, but it's good once in a while.

Japanese>English

A punchy nigori sake that does not lose any of its alcohol content when served on the rocks. It is both refreshing and drinkable, but may be dangerous when your body is fatigued from the summer heat.

Last weekend I was out of sake to go with oden, so I went to the local supermarket and bought a 300㎖ bottle for the sake. It has a sweet and refreshing taste. It's good at hiya, but it tastes even better when it's warmed up to human skin temperature to increase the sweetness. However, I thought it would be too clean to pair with oden. I chose this sake because I wanted to keep it light, but.... If I wanted to warm it up, I could have used a more robust Junmaishu or even Honjozo. I'm still learning💦.

Japanese>English

On a trip to Shiga, I visited Hirai Shoten. The quaint appearance of the store and the display of products were a sight to behold. Today's bottle was the "Sake Brewer's 3003000 Year Old" (pictured left). The aroma is melon, apple, and pineapple, and the first sip is a punch. It has a mellow sweetness, but the acidity and bitterness make it crisp and refreshing. Delicious. Well, Shiga Prefecture was fun! I'm also looking forward to Kosetsu (I heard it's read as Fouche) on the right side of the photo 😄.

Here is the fourth drink at HAMA BAR in Kashima City Hizen Kurashin Special Junmai Sake Hi-ire It has sweetness, umami, bitterness, and acidity. It is more umami than sweetness, and the acidity and sourness support each other.

Japanese>English

Kashima City HAMA BAR section is still going on😊. Here is the 7th cup in total! Hizen Kurashin Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki Hi-ire The last time we drank this was Omachi, but this one is made with the best rice in the sake brewing world, Mohansei! It is ama, delicious, bitter, and sharp! It also has plenty of acidity! It tastes as good as you'd expect.

Japanese>English

The rice used is Osan Nishiki It is not a simple light dry taste, but you can feel a little sweetness in the bitterness and spiciness. The flavor is just like the name "Super Dry", and there is a part that makes you think "high alcohol content❗️", but it is not spicy, and you can feel the tenderness. Also, there is a freshness that can be imagined from the color of the label, and it is a sake that is easy to drink with good sharpness. Naturally, I recommend it as a food sake❣️.

This doburoku is made to order. I pre-ordered it at the end of August through a guide from my favorite liquor store, and it has arrived. It's my first doburoku! The sweet and sour Awaraku in the photo expresses it all. It tastes like sweet sake with the texture of petite rice and the sizzling cider-like carbonation you feel when you crush it, making it a refreshing, mouth-watering drink. It's adjusted to 5% alc:5% and goes down swiftly. It's no longer a dessert!

Japanese>English

I was completely captivated by the 126. This time it is in a large size of 1440ml. It is also nice that it comes in a PET bottle with no decoration at all. The bottle was opened while feeling the healthy yeast. Yes, it's really good! It is a super thick, bumpy type of wine. The expression is too harsh, but it is like "drinking yogurt-flavored porridge" (it is delicious, so please do not misunderstand me...). It is low in alcohol and you can drink it up in no time. I still have about half a year to go, but I can't wait for this year's season.

Japanese>English

One of my colleagues recommended that I buy a bottle 🍶126, which he said should be read as doburoku. It has a refreshing sweetness, sourness, and fizz, so it is truly an adult's calpis soda! The rice is still there, so I guess it is a pulp(?) I think it's a Calpis soda with rice 😁. It's 5% alcohol, so there's almost no alcohol taste, and I can't stop drinking it... I'd drink it every day ✨.
