Enjoy cheap sushi at Totoro, a popular standing sushi bar under the elevated railway tracks of Himeji Station. Although it is a stand-up style sushi bar, there is always a long line of customers because of the high quality of the food. Since I was there, I asked for a local sake, Yaegaki. It was not sweet, but it was not dry either. It was about medium spicy. I am not talking about curry. I had it cold, but I feel it is all-around good at room temperature or hot. It's great for a kotteri type of stuff.

For souvenirs, we went to Yaegaki's store at Himeji Station 😄I bought a limited edition special junmai recommended to me ✨. The aroma is fresh and muscat-like 😚The taste is fresh and the acidity comes forward and is refreshing ✨It has a nice sharpness 😊I felt like it would be a delicious sake for the summer 🥳.

At home. I had it with my son. It has a spicy aroma, but the taste is light and the aftertaste is clean and easy to drink. There are many sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture, so I would like to try them little by little.

Event at Hanshin Racecourse (・・・・) We came to enjoy drinks and throw away money! Today, I'm here for this. It's the one with a good reputation! Nada's sake with a solid core. It has a dry taste and sharpness. There is an accent of acidity. The light aroma on the nose was just right! This is indeed a perfect sake! My expectation is the worst, but all the sakes I drank today were perfect!

Purchased at Seibu-Chichibu station. It has a classical Japanese sake flavor. It is better to drink it as it is with strong flavored food than to drink it as it is. ⭕️ A robust Junmai sake... maybe not my favorite...

Japanese>English

I drank it all so fast: ❗️ It was a tangy, fizzy and tasty rice flavor.

This is my first Chichibu Nishiki 🍶. Here's a souvenir from camp: 🏕️ Refreshing and easy to drink✨ It's a junmai ginjo, but it goes down like water 😛.

Takagaki Junmai Sake The "Takagaki Junmai-shu" we were served this time had an appealing "gentle richness" that you could feel the moment you took a sip. The initial impression was mellow, with a full-bodied rice flavor that gradually spread across the palate. The taste is neither too heavy nor too light, but has an exquisite balance with the depth and calmness typical of junmai sake. The more you drink, the more the rich umami of the rice can be felt, and the more you drink, the gentler and more reassuring the finish is. It was the type of junmai sake that is easy to pair with meals, and the longer you savor it, the more delicious it becomes 🍶✨.

Japanese>English

Sake made by students? The ginjo aroma is beautiful. I'm sorry for my prejudice. The taste of rice is powerful, juicy acidity Kirei (sharpness) with a good aftertaste Wonderful!

Japanese>English

The syrup is thick and sweet. After a short pause, it has a strong mirin-like flavor, It also has a green flavor like kiwi. The pork feet boiled in a strong flavored broth went well with it. Sake from Wakayama is said to be very robust. Degree of liking ☆3/5

It's a sake made by Imuraya, the same company that made the Azuki Bar that just went on sale the other day. There is no brand name or registration. It is a pure, unpasteurized sake. It's fruity and sweet, which is the latest trend ☺️. Delicious.

(**)🍶🍶🍶🍶 We got Fukuwagura, a sake made by Imuraya, the company behind Maetin's favorite 💕taiyaki ice cream💕😋. The aroma is faintly peachy 🤔In the mouth, it's fire-aged but fresh 😀 Mature soft umami and round sweetness 🥰 Mild acidity to tighten it up and a slight sweetness lingers 😚 It's a refreshing drink 😊. I feel like it would be good with azuki beans since it is from Imuraya 🥳.

A cup of sake bought at the souvenir corner of Himeji station. I took a sip, thinking it was probably dry... Yes, it is dry. It is refreshing, but has a sourness. Sake from Hyogo Prefecture is basically dry.

This is a junmai sake from the north of the Kinjitake Brewery. The sweetness comes from the mild umami. It is a delicious sake with a good acidity followed by a bitter taste. I had it at room temperature. It is a good one👍🍶🎶.

Japanese>English

I guess this is one of the answer songs to the real Kin Fat reviewed by Manachie 😅. I sometimes stock a series of small bottles for when I want to drink a little 🎵Hokkaido is brewed by Kinteki Shuzo 🎵Kinteki...no, Kinteki 😉 Not much aroma, spicy, watery sake, light bitterness 🍶 I felt rice on the aftertaste 😃. Classical but good for eating ❗

Japanese>English

A gift from a coworker 🍶My first time drinking Kinpitaiku in a long time, very dry 😆It's a traditional sake 🐙The octopus delicacy goes great with it 😊.
