The 2nd meeting of Kansai Off-line Meeting Year-End Party ✌️. Around this time, tables were filled with Hormone Yakisoba is delivered one after another 🤣. And Shirokuma sake 🐻❄️! It's a light cloudy sake. Aroma is fruity but slightly dry ❄️. Easy to drink even when chatting easy to drink and easy to drink 😋.

Shirokuma Shirokuma - Winter light nigori - 720ml Rice: Gohyakumangoku Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol: 16%. I opened a bottle of Hatsuzakura because my wife said it was too strong. It is soft and a little bit sweet. It is very different from the other two bottles that were made with a cloudy rice that looked like porridge. I would like to drink the animal series throughout the year 😊.

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.

Go-around Rokkomichi 1/5 It was my first time to participate in a go-around! I was excited and thrilled from the morning. I couldn't work today... lol. It was like a field trip for adults. I visited 5 stores in the Rokko-michi area in Kobe! First of all, here is the shaken sake. As I stood nervously at the counter, my neighbor spoke to me. He said, "How many restaurants have you been to?" I said, "This is the first one. It's kind of nice, isn't it? This is my first time drinking Miyakotsuru. It is very dry. It is light. I asked for breast meat with kombu-jime egg yolk and chicken skin with wasabi and soy sauce. I thought it was a little strong. But it goes well with sake! This time, the theme for me was "matching the dish". I'm on the train now on my way home. Because I have to work NOW tomorrow.... I'll be posting more soon.......!

Hyogo Prefecture Mizuho Kuromatsu Kenbishi Rice polishing ratio Alcohol 17.5 Junmai sake from Kenbishi. As a Junmai sake drinker, I really wanted to have a Junmai sake from Kenbishi, so I bought it online. The color is light amber. The matured flavor reminds me of chocolate aroma. It is a solid sake with a great posture.

I've had Kanazawa-ya from the same brewery at an outing, but this is my first time drinking it. I had never heard of rice called "Takaneminori" before. It has a fresh aroma with a hint of cemedine. The impression is that it fades out after a pause from the refreshing feeling, followed by a gutsy sweet flavor. It is a new sake, but it has a strong umami.

☆☆☆☆☆ Sweet ripeness. It's good with a slight old wine feel.

A heavy sake with a smooth texture. The sweetness of the rice and the spiciness of the alcohol come together with an acidity that makes it easy to drink.

Purchased on a trip in June. A stable sake from Aizu, with a pleasant sweetness and aroma that is very good as a food sake, even if it is not so assertive.

It is Minokiku Hojo. It is a normal sake made from 100% Yamada Nishiki. It is a little sweet and has a fruity taste. The price is 1760 yen (tax included) and it is the best sake in Japan. It is said that this sake is designed to be the best sake that you can drink in the evening. That's right 😋.

It has a robust flavor and is better warmed than chilled. I felt it had the same amber color and taste as the natural sake I drank before.

The one I bought at the Kisegawa venue of the Shiga brewery opening event. It has a strong alcohol taste with a lot of gusto. It has a strong sweetness and umami of rice. It is better at room temperature, but it is also good on the rocks or with soda. After a week, it still has a strong alcoholic taste, but I think the sweetness has increased.

There is no mention of it, but it is probably nama sake. It is not labeled as Nama-shu, but according to the information on the Internet, the label on the back of the bottle says it needs to be kept chilled, which means it is Nama-shu. Am I right? The rice is Ginbukiyo and Nihonbare. It also looks like a raw sake. It does not feel as spicy as the sake level, and although it is spicy, there is a good balance of sweet and spicy. The taste is light and refreshing. The spiciness finishes with a lingering sweetness. There is a good amount of graininess.
Japanese

English
There are still many sake breweries in Shiga that I have not tried. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu, but it is also very drinkable and does not try to be carried away by the current style of easy-drinking.

The third restaurant was Murashige Sake Brewery of Kinkan Kuromatsu 😀. It was easy to arrive thanks to Mr. Nakama Sou Touji of Gobashi who gave us a lift 😀. I was a little disappointed that there was no tasting at this brewery, although they have the biggest cedar ball in Japan as their signature 🤣. I bought a bottle of the brewery's limited edition Uraganekan Kuromatsu 😀. I took a commemorative photo with my friends, and the photo of Mr. Gohashi in his Kin-kan Kuromatsu happi might be a little precious 🤣.

Today's sake was Kinkan Kuromatsu from the hometown tax return gift from Iwakuni, which we received yesterday 😀 It is a junmai sake, so it didn't have much aroma, but the taste of the rice was very good. It is a junmai sake, which means that the aroma is not too strong and the taste of the rice can be felt well 😀. It was an easy sake to pair with a meal without feeling too much alcohol 😀. Tomorrow, Kaorin and I are going to a Yamaguchi sake event in Kitahama, Osaka 😇. There are many Yamaguchi sake that I like, so I'm looking forward to it 😇.

@Hangetsuan Rice used is something like Saito no Shizuku. It is an orthodox junmai sake, but it suited your meal. Now, talking about February, we were finally able to realize the Iwakuni expedition that was cancelled in 2020 due to the Corona disaster: ❗️ We had some time to spare, so we visited the sake brewery of Mr. Ganki. We got some treasures by looking for "Kinjaku". ‼️ Unfortunately, Kintai Bridge was under construction. It was a fulfilling trip in its own way.
