The entry is soft with a slight citrus aroma, and the overall taste is dry with a moderate amount of flavor typical of Omachi rice. My wife and son had bought some spicy chicken from Saizeriya's take-out, and we enjoyed it as a snack.

I bought "Light of Hope: Three Tohoku Brands Support Set" from Ideya. For some reason, they delayed the arrival date, so I finally got it. It cheered me up and made me want to do my best.

Tonight, we will open a bottle of this sake to keep the events of 13 years ago from fading away: 💁♂️ Banjo Kotobuki Golden Slumber 2022BY The standing aroma is very youthful, fresh fruit and aloe, with no sense of maturity. The taste is very delicious, with a refined rum and cider with a slight effervescence. The lingering bitterness in the aftertaste is like floating in a dream of slumber. It's a sake that I'm sure I'll never forget, but it's a positive feeling that keeps me walking forward. ☺️

Kotobuki made using Nagai Kurate's Snow Goddess. It has a mild aroma, but the flavor of the rice is very strong. I would like to drink it heated, but it's too hot to drink it cold this time of year.

(*´~*)🍶🍶🍶🍶´- I got Kurobe Pincer from Hayashi Sake Brewery in Toyama Prefecture 😀. I asked the lady at the store to recommend a new arrival, and since Hayashi was not yet available, I bought a bottle of Kurobe Pincer from the same brewery 😚. The aroma is not so much but a little peachy 🍑? It is fresh on the palate with a gentle sweetness and rice flavor 🌾😋 It is a delicious sake that finishes with a bit of an alkali aftertaste 😆👍✨.

I look forward to Toyama hiyaoroshi every year 😊. I chose Kurobe Gorge this year as well 😆. This year may be different from previous years⁉️. The aroma is sweet and rummy. The taste is less fruity and sweeter and calmer than usual 🤔. Sweet and calm 🤔. Surprisingly, there is no alcohol taste. It is easy to drink and the 270ml is gone in no time. It will be gone soon!

Noge with his eldest son and his wife (1) On Saturday, I received a line from my eldest son saying, "I'm thinking of going to a bedrock bath near our house on Sunday and would like to have dinner afterwards. (My wife went to Izumo where our daughter was staying. (My wife has gone to Izumo with our daughter and Takamatsu with her mother-in-law, so she invited me out since she is alone?) I asked him, "Okay, what time? I asked him what time, and he said noon. There are not many places near my house where you can drink from noon, so we ended up going to Noge. First "shellfish" restaurant I've ever been to. Kikuyu with hot sake (it was a little cold and rainy) 🍶. My oldest son's wife is a sake drinker, so it was perfect! This is my first time drinking it! And I don't usually drink it hot, so I don't know what it is, but it's nice 😋. I can feel the acidity. And the aroma comes in fluffy. I guess I was right in heating it up. Don't eat too much, let's go to the next restaurant!

Rice used is Miyamanishiki I didn't find it too harsh, but my partner, who prefers a gorgeous sweet taste, found it too much for his palate. It is true that the alcohol taste comes first, and the mouthfeel is not smooth. As the day goes by, the corners are removed and it becomes more moderate, so it might be better to go out with it slowly, but I don't dislike it in this way.

I was in a sake store near the train station in Yonezawa when I was traveling and asked the owner what was the best sake in the area 😅🍶🍶. The owner of the store recommended this "Koubai" 😅🍶. My daughter-in-law gave it to me as a Father's Day present, but I don't remember exactly what it tasted like back then 🙇🤣🤣I don't know if it was a coincidence or if he remembered what I said at some point, but I tasted it for the first time in 40+ years (I'm getting old lol😅😅) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🍶. The color was clear and colorless, and although it was described as having a "gorgeous aroma", it was quite subdued and had a mild mouthfeel. It was a bit of a sharp taste and did not linger on the palate, perhaps due to the alkaloids. But it is a kind of deep emotion to be able to drink the famous sake I drank when I was young after a long time 🙏🙏. Thanks to my son-in-law🙏🙏🙏🍶

It has a clean, dry taste that is conveyed by the packaging. It is not fruity, but its dry sake-like taste definitely goes well with fish!

There is no description, but it has a light nigori taste. It has a slightly richer flavor than the Dewa Sanzan that I drank recently. The rice seems to be well melted. As expected from Omachi, there is nothing to say 🤣.

The fifth sake was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Gin The fifth cup was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginzoku Gekidaku. It is made from Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and It is a limited-edition shipment of a well-balanced blend of Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa-Tsanbai junmai ginjo. It is a blend of Yamada Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa Tsannin Junmai Ginjo in good balance. It is very thick, but has a nice sharpness. It is a dry sake that is thick, but has a nice sharpness and is very refreshing to drink. It is a dry sake that can be drunk very refreshingly. Fried raw wood ear, fried raw wood ear, and assorted tempura (so good that we ordered it again). and assorted tempura (which was very good, so I ordered it again). The sake was very good.

It was the month before last, but I finally landed in Kyushu for the first time. I drank "Tenshin Tokujun" at an izakaya I went to alone as soon as I arrived, and it was delicious. ‼️ I met up with my friends from Hokkaido a few hours later and had another drink! Kyushu Kiku! The label makes you feel like you're in Kyushu 😊It's a little classical, light and spicy, and it makes you want to eat more 😋The "Nuka-daki", which is fish cooked with rice bran, is also good 👍. I liked the Gundam Base that opened at New Chitose Airport before landing in Kyushu.

Unfiltered unpasteurized sake Sake meter meter +15 100% Aso Yamadanishiki Rice polishing ratio 60 Alcohol content 17~18 Acidity 1.4 It is a super dry, unpasteurized sake. Price: 2200 yen including tax Zanshin, meaning "leaving a lingering aftertaste. The aroma is Sun-like. It reminds of melon🍈 in the mouth. The acidity is strong, making it a good mid-meal sake. I bought this sake because it was recommended to me instead of the normal one. I was told that it was recommended by Nombeni. ❗️

Cool. This label. I have never seen this in Osaka. It is so-called "aluzoe. The impression is that you can feel the presence of rice in the beginning, but the aftertaste is clean and refreshing. Oh, I want to eat sushi!

My brother went to a sake event in Niigata, He found a sake that he liked and shared it with me. With all due respect, I had never heard of this brand. When I opened the bottle, the aroma was unassertive. When you drink it, it is sweet but well balanced, It is not too sweet, but has a sharp taste and disappears quickly. It is delicious, and at 17%, it is very drinkable. It is easy to drink with meals.

And yet there is a sharpness in the aftertaste. What a wonderful sake!
