( *´*)🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today I got my first benten which I bought in Yamagata prefecture in GW 😀. I had to buy it because it was a limited edition 🤔. After opening the bottle, it has a mild ginjo aroma 😚 Great expectations 😚 Refreshingly tasty and sweet in the mouth😊 with a clean fresh aftertaste 😍😍😍😍.

Quite fruity. Easy to drink and refreshing. Slightly sweet, I drank too much 😣.

three cups of Tsunite (three cups of sake) Rice used is Hachitan Nishiki Sanshiki has a punch, doesn't it? It has a good sense of maturity and a pungent spiciness. It also has a nice sharp aftertaste. ❗️ It's great to have this kind of sake in the lineup! It was delicious. ❣️

The 5th Shinmae Festival, the 5th Kanno Thanksgiving Mie Shinshu Matsuri (15) Mie Nishiki, which we have not seen very often. The Mie Nishiki on the back label seems to be limited to Morishita Sake Shop. I think bouken-san drank it before. Mie Nishiki Chugutori Mie Nishiki Super Dry Junmai Ginjo (special order limited edition) The taste is mainly sour, with a slight yogurtiness, and a pungent aftertaste that gives it a clean, classic feel. I also saw several other limited editions with back labels from other breweries at Morishita Sake Shop. According to a group I met, Morishita Sake Brewery is in charge of this new sake festival in the fall, and Akafuku in the spring.

Japanese>English

This is Mie Nishiki, a local sake from Iga, which we also bought in Okage Yokocho. It is a light and dry sake, perfect for a mealtime drink and easy to drink. When I saw the words "limited to Ise-Shima", I was tempted to buy it.

I've been making my way to restaurants with good service lately. Today they served me a fresh aged sake. Today is February 6. This is my first Kinkame. My first impression was that it was very good! Next, it has a strong umakuchi taste. The acidity at the end is good, just like Yamadataro. It is like a light kijoshu, and it is delicious. Shiga is nice.

Japanese>English

This one has a milling ratio of 80. Full of sweetness! It spreads slowly in the mouth.

Japanese>English

In Sakewa, there are two separate brands, Kinkame and Kinkame, which is the correct one to register? Kinkame's "Drink this" is 70% polished. It has umami, richness, and a moderately classic feel. This is also a delicious sake.

First UGO series: ❗️ The aroma is modest: ❗️ In the mouth it has a 🍑 like sweetness and aroma😊. Complex taste but nice👍 A little more sourness and a clean aftertaste 🤔. The overall aroma and taste is to my liking. It was a very tasty sake😍 I would like to try other UGO as well ‼️

. I guess this one falls into the swishy category too 🤔. Light sweetness and lightness of the moment 😋. It might be good for those who say they are not good at sake!

Birthday gift sake No. 3 Speaking of comets, Ricaman is a liquor that I don't get a chance to drink very often because I don't go to Ricaman. It has a mild top-fragrance aroma. It is gorgeous and refreshingly sweet on the palate. It is a versatile type of sake that can be enjoyed with food or on its own. For better or worse, it is an excellent Daiginjo. I think it tastes more open and sweeter on the second day than when it is freshly opened. The design of the sake lid looks just like the one from a while ago😅.

Japanese>English

Today I chose sushi, sashimi and comet in the aftermath of yesterday's birthday, and since my son and wife went to bed, I had a luxurious dinner by myself😘. The comet I bought for comparison last time was so good that I bought two bottles for comparison this time too 🤣👍. Tomorrow I'm going to go to Gifu and buy Yamamoto Do, which I've longed for. ‼️ I've been looking for it for about three years now, but when I find a store that carries it, it's always sold out, so I'll make sure to get it this year 🥺. So let's open the bottle: ‼️ The aroma is fruity and the taste is sweet and juicy with almost no bitterness or acidity.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild, but the taste is clean, sweet, and sharp. It went down smoothly and easily.

The trophies from our recent petit expedition 🍶✨.

Lactic acidic 🐮 with a slight 🍶✨. Nice and crisp when swallowed 😊⤴️😊 Elegant taste 👑. I enjoy it very much(^-^)/

@Koriyama Iando After having a drink in Omiya, I got tired of going back to Tokyo, so I jumped on the 🚄 and went to Koriyama. I decided to have a quick bite in front of the station, but it was crowded everywhere, so I went to a new restaurant that I found. They have a good selection of local sake, and I chose "Yuri", which I had never had before, and it is from the same brewery as Aizu Nakasho! I heard that this sake is brewed by a mother and daughter who are both sake brewing technicians! It has a soft sweetness at first, but eventually it becomes slightly dry and pleasant to drink. It is very easy to drink, which is impressive and delicious.

8.5 points (Wife 8.5 points) Sake Brewer : Ohga Shuzo, Chikushino City, Fukuoka Prefecture (Fukuoka Prefecture's oldest brewery) Rice : Yamadanishiki produced in Fukuoka Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 60 Alcohol percentage : 16 Sake Degree : Undisclosed Acidity : Not disclosed A gift from a friend in Fukuoka who came to Fukuoka Airport to see me off (purchased at Todoroki Sake Shop). Slightly melon-like finish The same subdued, fruity aroma as the first sip, with a hint of vanilla and a hint of azuki beans, soft sweetness and umami of rice spreading with a refreshing acidity, and finishing gently with a hint of bitterness and a slight spiciness from the alcohol. Elegant and well-balanced, it is easy to pair with meals, and is also delicious on its own. My friend's nickname is Tama-chan and his wife's maiden name is Izumi, so he chose this sake as a pun. It went well with Italian-style grilled salmon with foil, stewed sweet potato, chilled tofu, and squid cod roe.

Japanese>English

The oldest sake brewery in Fukuoka, Ohga Shuzo, has created a GABAGABAHEY raw sake. At the first sip, the fresh and rich rice flavor typical of nama-shu spreads. It is certainly a sake that you might drink with the governor (^-^), and it is delicious. It seems to be a limited sake, so if you are interested, please come early~.

Japanese>English

The fourth cup is a "Tamadezumi" unpasteurized sake! (First picture, left side) The sweetness is even richer than the previous "Ooga Unfiltered Nama"! However, as you savor it, the acidity and pungency slowly come from the back, along with a hint of shiitake mushroom-like aroma. The coffee milk-like aftertaste is impressive ✨.

There is no excessive aroma, only a subtle fruity aroma, and the clarity is high. In the mouth, the umami and sweetness of the rice can be felt, but they disappear without lingering aftertaste. It has almost no acidity and the aftertaste is a little sharp and elegant, which always impresses me.
