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.

Japanese>English

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. ☺️

Japanese>English

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.

It is a very easy to drink sake with a nice umami flavor👍. It was a well balanced sake that would go well with a variety of meals. It was a delicious sake!

Drinking outside after work. My wife was off work and we decided to have dinner outside. We found this restaurant in the vicinity of Nara Station - ‼️ We couldn't find a good time to drink at Toyoshuku, so we went to this restaurant and had a glass of Nara's local sake, Shirotoroku (‼️). The aroma was gorgeous, the taste was smooth and sweet on the palate, and the finish was refreshing.

Returned from Hokkaido and bought it at the supermarket in the neighborhood. After a long time. It is calm😊.

Purchased in Toshima-ku, Tokyo♪ Alcohol content@15.0 to 16.0 Sake degree@+6.0 Acidity @ 1.4 Rice used@Yamadanishiki Polishing ratio@60 Personal Recommendation@3.8/5.0 I recommended Sake Cost Sake Brewery to my daughter who was looking for a part-time job at an izakaya after school, but she was told that there was no part-time position available at the restaurant she wanted and they were not hiring, so she decided to go to another Italian bar. I thought she might be able to drink cheaper with the family discount, but alas 😢. Since the last Ryuki was sweet, we wanted to try something a little dry, so we went looking for some Shizuoka sake 🤗. I don't have an image of Shizuoka sake as a modern sake, but I wonder if there is any 😅. Well, I took it out of the fridge and drank it cold 😃. Yes, it's refreshingly dry but surprisingly soft on the palate and easy to drink 😗. I thought this would definitely taste better lukewarm 🍶, so I warmed it up and the mouthfeel became softer and softer 🍶❣️ It is not a sake that has any special characteristics, but the price is reasonable, so it is worth buying 🤭.

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024⑱. The last of the Yomiuri Shimbun booth is here. There are stores where you can buy Nihonshin, and I've had it, but I've never seen such an expensive sake... Yamada-Nishiki 40% polished rice More modern label than the Nihonshin I drank at home 😁. It's gorgeous, but I felt it's more sake-like... The label is also modern and written in English, so I wonder if it's for export?

Japanese>English

This one, like the Ko-Imari, was purchased when I was with Yoohee-san. The rice is Matsuyama Mitsui. It has a melon-like taste and a strong bitter taste like bitter melon. I thought it would be a little sweeter, but it is quite spicy. It is more like melon or cemedine. It is not my favorite type of rice.

It is a gift from Niigata 🙏. Yukichubai is a classic light and dry wine. but this one seems to be a seasonal summer sake. It is a seasonal summer sake with a refreshing taste🎶. It is slightly sweet and has a nice sharpness! The alcohol content was high, so it was better to drink it on the rocks. It was better to drink it on the rocks👍

Japanese>English

Back in the day, Niigata's Sanbai was an extremely hard-to-find brand. I often visited Niigata Takata on business and was often presented with it. At the time, I had no interest in sake at all and almost never went through with it. Now, in 2021, Koshino-Kanbai is easily available at Aeon. Mine-no-Hakubai is also often seen as Hishiko at local liquor stores. However, Yukinubai is not so easy to find in my hometown. So, I got it on a business trip to Joetsu. I paired it with a taste of spring, firefly squid and broccoli with olive oil. It has a moderate aroma of cemedine or banana. It is sweet. It harmonizes with the sweetness and bitterness of firefly squid and broccoli. Lastly, there is a final bitter taste that is refreshing and delicious in the mouth!

Japanese>English

It is a gift from my brother back home. We drank the rest of the sake at the New Year's party. We had a stable Honjozo and a more beautiful Daiginjo. Both of them were good sake.
