I sleep weirdly too much and this is exhausting 😅💦. I don't remember who it was that said that sleep is not accumulated even if you sleep a lot, so lack of sleep will never be solved 🤔. Well, I'm going to drink some expensive alcohol and go back to sleep. Let's open the bottle and go back to bed. The aroma is fruity and the taste is lychee-like, just like yesterday's M, but something is different ⁇ When I compare what the difference is, I think it's the alcohol taste that comes out in the aftertaste 🤔❓❓ I don't know what the difference is, but I'm sure it tastes good anyway 🤣👍👍.

Iwashimizu from Igaya Sake Brewery after a long time! ☺️♪✨✨✨ Delicious as always ‼️🤣✨ Too light and I emptied a bottle, regretting that I should have taken more time to taste and drink it 😭! I'm amazed every time that it's 11% strength in the original bottle! 😅. I can't drink it easily because it's a high-end sake and the places where you can buy it are limited, but I will repeat again 😋🍀✨✨.

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.

Once opened, no turning back style Smells like yogurt Light mouthfeel, lactic acid flavor, slight sweetness and rice flavor. Slowly bitterness. Refreshing in the mouth. Delicious! I found myself drinking it quickly and no need to put the lid on.

I got this one at my wife's parents' house. I've drunk Rumiko-san before, but this is the first time I've had an active muddy one😙. After 10 minutes of opening and closing the bottle, I finally made a toast🍾 It's fresh and crispy❣️and tingly❣️. It's got a nice sourness and bitterness to it 😆. I think I may have drunk the most 🤪! Thanks for the treat🙏.

Japanese>English

I've been drinking a lot of cold sake lately, so I had it heated for the first time in a while 🥰. The rice flavor is very strong and perfect for warming up ️. The mild and soothing taste is very relaxing 😊.

(**Thanks to 🍶🍶🍶🍶) I'm opening a bottle of Hayaseura from Fukui Prefecture 😀 I've been looking forward to it since I bought it at the brewery last year 😆. The aroma is mild and pear ✨😊😊The mouthfeel is light with a beautiful sweetness and umami 😚It also has a nice acidity and sharpness 😘It is sweet and umami but has a clean aftertaste 🥰This is a delicious sake😍This is a perfect strike👍👍👍 It's a sweet and tasty sake that is dangerous to drink ✨🥳🥳.

Japanese>English

Mouthfeel, mellow 🍶. Slightly sour, slightly bitter✨ Complex taste or nice 🌸 I enjoy it very much.

［Fukui Spring New Sake Festival (9) The event was coming to an end with a series of sake from Ishikawa. We decided to try something a little different and had a drink here 🍶. Hayaseura Special Junmai Sake "Umi-no-Otoko This is an old sake that has been stored in the brewery for 3 years and was served warmed 😁. The aroma of rice flavor, the gentle texture on the tongue, the impact of the flavor at the back of the throat, the warm aftertaste of heated sake, and the bitter taste at the back of the throat at the end........ It is a "man of the sea" respecting fishermen who work at sea, and I feel that it is strongly made to go well with local fatty seafood and salty preserved food 😋. The entrée sold out unexpectedly quickly, so I emptied it before I could check its true value💦.

Japanese>English

I've been wanting to try some nigori sake lately 😆. I saw it in the store yesterday, went to buy it today, and was supposed to open it tomorrow... but I couldn't wait, so I opened it today and drank it 😅! There are many nigorizakes out there, but this one is Junmai! It has a nice crackle and a nice "umami and gentle sweetness" of the rice 😻🎉. Originally I was thinking of the 3x Domu from the same brewery, but I was so taken with the Junmai that I decided to go with this one. I'm not sure if I'd be able to do that, but I'm sure I'd be able to do it.

Japanese>English

Sake filled only with Domuro-roasted rice. Slightly effervescent. It has a rich sweetness, but the alcohol taste is a little strong at the end.... The official online store of Endo Sake Brewery is formatted like a mail order site for health foods and supplements 🤣. Maybe it tastes better at higher temperatures? Nutty and caramel type sweetness comes out.

Suehiro Shuzo's Genzai. They also won a gold medal at the New Sake Competition for their Genzai daiginjo, but this is not that award-winning sake, but an affordable special junmai. It starts off with a piquant and refreshing sweet and sour taste! The taste is powerful with a strong sense of presence, but the alcohol content of 15 degrees makes it easy to drink and enjoy 👌. We are looking forward to adding this sake to our lineup next year and beyond 😊.

Japanese>English

Sake brewed at Suehiro Shuzo's Kaei warehouse. When I hear the name "Genzai," I think of the daiginjo that was entered in the sake competition. I hesitate to buy it because it is a bit expensive, but this special junmai sake (nama-shu, hi-iru) is reasonably priced and easy to pick up. I am looking forward to the next year, when there will be more varieties of sake. As for the sake, the aroma is like apples. When I drank it, I smelled cemedine😅. The sake is fresh and has a tangy, gaseous taste. The sweetness is moderate and the acidity is strong. I thought maybe I don't like cemedine, but I drank more than half of it in no time and regretted it. It is easy to drink. The second day, the cemedine is also good. If this is the case, it's a special pure Cemedine.

Japanese>English

Bought it on a trip and opened the bottle at the hotel. It has a sweet mouthfeel and is easy to drink. After a little while after opening it, the corners are removed and it is easier to drink. Delicious.

It is a well-balanced sake that is fruity, refreshing, and has a crisp finish. Vinegared harakkyo mushrooms as a side dish

Japanese>English

The rice used is Gohyakumangoku. It is a light and round sake with a clean and crisp taste. As the temperature rises, the so-called "sémé" aroma and sweetness, as well as a stimulating spiciness, become apparent, giving the impression of an "aluzoe" sake❗️. I love this kind of refined Honjozo!

At home. This was a gift from my wife, who had been watching my daily posts on Sake-no-wa, as she was addicted to sake. I was happy to receive this gift, but at the same time, I wondered if it was safe to order it online. I have to admit that I was a little concerned. After taking some commemorative photos, I was ready to try it. The aroma was fruity. When I put it in my mouth, it had a fresh, slight carbonation, a strong sourness and sweetness, and a strong bitterness at the end, making it very easy to drink. I thought to myself that continuing to drink will produce various effects, and I will continue to enjoy my life of drinking.

Japanese>English

Snowy Matsushima, a gift This type of sake comes in a box with an ostentatious string tied around the neck of the bottle. The top-tasting aroma is a fruity ginjo aroma, but there is a sense of bitter alcohol in the back. The mouthfeel is clean, sweet and delicious, with a clear sake quality and no unpleasant alcohol taste, making it a quintessential expensive sake. It also has a nice sharpness from the mild bitterness. It was a treat!

Japanese>English

The oldest daughter and her husband gave me a bottle of alcohol as a year-end gift🍶. It's refreshing and light 🤗 Umakuchi delicious 🤤. I'm currently doing a lot of pots and pans. I'm having a lot of fun with pots 🙋🙋.
