Bingo-Ochiai-Yonago - Okayama-Matsumoto train trip 🚃Day 1 Gutsy 😳. Rich, chewy and drinkable with some umami 😋. Hot and matured. A little tight. Maybe better heated 🤔. Purchased at Hiroshima station @ Geibi line 🚃 20211209

This is a gift from my wife who went to Onomichi. Very fruity! When you put it in your mouth, the apple-like aroma escapes and you feel a hint of sweetness. When swallowed, the sweetness quickly dissipates and leaves a pleasant aftertaste in the throat. This is delicious!

It is light and crisp with a refreshing aftertaste. It would go well with squid, flatfish sashimi, and nuta.

Sushi Continuing on with a little Sushi 🍣. I was surprised by this sake I opened the week before last: ‼️ I loved it 🥹💖! The fruity aroma is unlike anything I've ever tasted before! It really goes well with Tenzan Sake Brewery🍀. #TenzanShuzo #JunmaiGinjo #Yamadanishiki #Cold sake #Saga Prefecture #Low-cost Series

Stars Fate has brought us together with Tenzan Shuzo: ‼️ It started with rice shochu (Shichida) and now it is recommended to be heated 🍶💕. It tastes very fresh even though it is an aged sake ↑upWhat are you talking about⁉️ but I like it very much! I like it very much. I'm afraid I can drink as much as I want 😱. #Tenzan Shuzo #Yamahai Junmai #Aged sake #Fresh #Nihonbare #Saga Prefecture #Low-cost Series

🌾Asahi rice from Okayama Prefecture 🅰️17 degrees It is purchased at Heisuiken in Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter. It is slightly cloudy because it has not been pressed yet. The taste is sharp rather than rough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It tasted like Shaoxing wine, "sticky but not sweet, but not sharp", which I didn't like. It's a shame to end the day with this, but if I drink any more, I'll be out of here...!

ᐠ( ᐢᐢ )ᐟ🍶🍶🍶+ For my second cup today, I tried for the first time Kuze Shuzo, the brewery closest to my parents' house 😀. The rice🌾 flavor is a gutsy type of sake 😆👍✨I guess the golden color of the sake is packed with flavor 🥳good sake to gobble up 😆👍✨.

( *´*If you want to 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Drink and cheer 📣✊. Noto Peninsula Earthquake We got a bottle of Chose Mai from Kuze Sake Brewery, the closest brewery to my parents' house 😋The only things that broke in the earthquake were soy sauce and shochu, not a single bottle of sake 😳This sake looks like a good omen for Kuze Sake Brewery that never breaks ✨. It is a sake made with unique rice (long-lived rice) and soft water 🍶´- opened at room temperature💭The aroma is mild😊The flavor is slightly matured, but it is light, mellow and delicious 😚Killer and easy to drink 😘It felt like a royal sake of sake with a good flavor 😀 It is limited to 5,000 bottles, so is it a valuable sake? Is it or is it a delicious sake 🥳✨?

Overall 5 (out of 10) I bought it from Older Brewery😃. I can feel the alcohol taste along with the spiciness, probably due to the high alcohol content. The alcohol taste goes away and the spiciness and astringency remain. It has a classic image. I enjoyed it chilled. I was impressed by the aroma of the wine. -Aroma: Aroma of alcohol and some ginjo aroma -Aroma: Astringency and spiciness on the nose. Taste sensation The higher the number, the stronger the taste (5 is the maximum) -Spiciness: 4 at the beginning → 3 in the aftertaste -Sweetness: 0 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste -Sourness: 0 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste -Bitterness: 2 at the beginning → 2 in the aftertaste -Astringency: 3 at the beginning 3→ Lingering 3 -Rice flavor: 1 at the beginning → 1 lingering aftertaste Mouthfeel I felt】→3 Smaller number = light and smooth Bigger number = thicker and richer (5 is the maximum)

Hankyu Oasis in the basement of Hankyu Sannomiya Station has a full lineup of Japanese sake, including draft sake, 300ml and cup sake. Surprisingly, it is easy to drink. It has a bitterness at the end, with a hint of gruffness. It's easy to drink and tastes better than most of the sake in cups with alcohol.

Kochi sake swamp. I was getting quite drunk, but this is Okada Izura, also known as Manslayer Izura! This is another light, dry sake with a strong rice flavor. This sake seems to be limited to the Kochi Liquors Club, but it was recommended by the proprietress! The saltiness of Shimanto River's Gori seems to be an endless loop.

Three of my best friends from high school were on our annual golf and sake trip. This was my first time in Kochi. After golf, we were taken to Katsurahama Beach to see the statue of Ryoma. I was surprised at how big it was. Then we had a party at an elegant restaurant. I started with Izo the Manslayer. Dry sake.

Sakushu Musashi Kenkou Gekkou Gekkou Gekkou Ultimate Daikarakuchi Genshu This is a local sake from Mimasaka in northeastern Okayama Prefecture, the birthplace of Musashi Miyamoto! As the name implies, it's very dry 😆. Sake degree +28 or higher, this is no joke! It is a very assertive sake, so it goes perfectly with a local dish of Okayama, "boiled yellow chives", which is a habitual dish of Okayama 😋. Onra Yamadanishiki Junmai It seems to be named after an ancient demon from the Kibi region in the southern part of Okayama Prefecture! Kokuwaku 😱. 80% polished Yamadanishiki produced in Kume Minami-cho, Okayama Prefecture. Dry taste Grain taste Slightly old sake aroma Personally, I didn't like it 🥲. Sanzen Yamahai Junmai Omachi Nama-nara Sake This is a sake from Kurashiki. Made with Omachi, the pride of Okayama Prefecture's sake rice. Not fruity, but umami type. It has a classical grain-like taste. The acidity is unique to the Yamahai brewing process. Thick and rich. When we went to Kurashiki, she rented a kimono and we went for a walk 👘.

I was going to go back to my hotel on the snowy road after leaving Seri, but I was curious about the sign across the street, so I read it! There is an entrance but no name of the store 🈚️ It was still early, so I opened the door and went down the stairs. I knew it was a sake store! I sat at the end of the counter and turned around to see a cold storage room full of sake! The waitress explained to me what to order, and we started with a brand I don't usually drink! Myonohana Special Junmai Crisp and dry, with a nice crisp aftertaste 😋. It is from the same brewery as Rumiko's sake, which I have had before! The No. 9 yeast is also the same! We were full, so let's go get a little bit of something recommended by the waitress 🤏. Knowledge Rice used: Yamadanishiki from Tokushima Prefecture Hachitan-Nishiki from Hiroshima Prefecture Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 15%. Yeast No. 9

I bought it by weight the day after the Hankai Train Off-line Meeting. I took this opportunity to buy it because Miyakotsuru's draft sake is rarely distributed. This is an annex of a store in Fushimi that sells all of Fushimi's sake in Nihonbashi, Osaka. I wonder if the sake brewers' association is involved? The bottles come in various sizes and labels, and you buy the bottle you want and pour it. You pour the sake yourself, but since I was right on the 300 ml mark, I received a sake cup as a "Pitari" prize. The taste is melon-like with a clean mouthfeel. The long, thin and extended acidity is impressive. It is a little light and has a sweet and spicy flavor. After about a week, the flavor seems to have opened up, or rather, the flavor profile has become more defined.
