January 2, 2024 Banquet at home. Drinking sake with my sister who is back home. The fourth and last sake of the day is The fourth and last sake of the day was Asahi Wakamatsu Junmai Sake sake. It was purchased at Amaha Shuho in Tokushima City. I had heard from my sister that it was delicious, and I was curious about it. I was able to get it when I visited the sake brewery in Seitama. I was finally able to get my hands on it when I visited Seitama's sake brewery. When poured into a glass, it had a yellowish When I poured it into a glass, it had a yellowish color and a sense of maturity. The color is yellow and it has a sense of maturity. It has a unique aroma like old pickles with a hint of acidity. The taste is sweet and rich, with a very mellow flavor. It can be served cold or at room temperature. It is best to drink it cold or at room temperature by itself. When heated, it has a softer flavor and is even more delicious. It tastes even better when heated. I like it best when it is warmed up. I like it best when it is warmed up and cooled down. It has an elegant sweetness that makes you think you can drink it indefinitely. It has a refined sweetness that makes you think you can drink it indefinitely. The taste remains almost the same 5 days after opening the bottle. The taste remains almost the same even after 5 days. The most recent one is from Sasaki Shuzo (Ehime). This is the most impressive taste since Yaegiku from Sasaki Shuzo (Ehime, Japan). The first day was a day of drinking. On the first day, it was served with jakoten (fish cake) and unagi kabayaki (broiled eel) from Yawatahama and broiled eel on the first day, and grilled sea bream on the fifth day. I enjoyed it with grilled sea bream kama on the fifth day. This sake is a must have for sure. I will definitely get this sake again.........

Whether you drink it cold or warmed, the sweetness of the rice flavor doesn't overpower the alcohol, and it has a great aftertaste. This is good. But it's only 20 degrees, so go easy on yourself.

(*∇￣*)🍶🍶🍶🍶 It was a very cold and snowy day in Ishikawa today, so I opened a bottle of Gunma Izumi to warm it up 😀 I'll start with room temperature 😁I've been drinking a lot of Yamahai lately, so I think I'm starting to get the feel of Yamahai 🤔It's solid and delicious! I've been drinking a lot of 😋 warmed up 😋, the aroma and taste are doubled and it's delicious. I've been drinking it for a while now and I'm starting to get a feel for it.

I️ am a Junmai sake drinker so I️ don't drink a lot of alsobe sake, but it's very easy to drink. It's like a forest brewed with a light nigori ✨✨. I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

A little cloudy with a light gassy feel. Fresh and crisp. It has the impression of an adult ramune. The Gunma Izumi I drank before was good, but this one is even better.

(🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶+ Sake cups purchased on my trip #4 This is my first time with Kenrishi ✨. The aroma is full of umami 🤔. On the palate, it has a caramel-like aroma, sweetness and depth of flavor, yet it's clean, crisp and easy to drink 🥰It's a delicious sake 🥳.

Japanese>English

This time we changed things up a bit and bought a bottle of Kuromatsu Kenrishi❣️, which we fell in love with at first sight because of the shape of the bottle and the coolness of the label. I had it lukewarm with my homemade oden🍢🙏. It's also good that you can heat up the whole bottle in a ding-dong! It has a bit of an alcoholic aroma, but I don't mind it too much. It's just as spicy and easy to drink 😮❗️ It's like an evolution of the classic type of sake? and I enjoyed it with food 😚. The bottle is stylish and I'd like to keep a bottle in stock for when I want a little heated sake 👍 Thanks for the food!

We opened a bottle at the office. This is the first time we have had "Shirasagi no Shiro", another name for Himeji Castle. At first I drank it at room temperature, and from the second glass I drank it on the rocks, and I could feel the gentle sweetness of the sake. The taste reminded me of Tengu Mai's Yamahai brewing. I'd like to try it warmed.

Japanese>English

The location changed and we went to Hyogo Sake EXPO 2022, a local sake event in Hyogo, at Kobe Hankyu. I tasted a regular product, a draft version. I had tasted the hi-ire version before, so I wondered what the draft version was like. It was easier to drink than the hi-ire version, but not to my taste. I prefer the Shirasagi no Shiro (castle of the egret), which is made with Nojoho.

Japanese>English

The only place I can think of that uses Nojoho is Okutanba. The overall impression is gentle and the taste comes slowly. It looks like wood, grass, or herb. It also has a classy atmosphere. The sake here is not my favorite, but when I find it, I buy it for some reason.

It's white and looks like ❄️⛄️. Sweet and mellow I was expecting it to be thicker, but it's pretty easy to drink 😊. I read the label on the back and it looks like it would be great with soda! I should have tried it! I realized today that I should have tried it. All the drinks in this set are new to me. I was also surprised that the bananas had a higher alcohol content! ฅ(⊙д⊙๑)ฅ

@Osaka Takashimaya Rice used: Yamadanishiki? Sake with full alcohol impact. It is a bit like a dry white wine. It starts with a moist mouthfeel and finishes crisp and clean. It is truly a masterpiece. ‼️

Hyogo is the sake of Himeji City. There are still many sake that I do not know. It is deep~~! It is said to be a mellow dry junmai sake. It is said to be super-harsh, but it did not give that impression. It was rather sweet. By coincidence, the mellow and thick pattern continues. It is also fresh. It is, quite frankly, delicious! It is also good with food. And I think it goes well with ice. I feel like I'm waking up on the rocks (laughs).

(o´ω-)b🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today I went to Hiroshima 🚅 for work 🎊 for the first time in my life. I ate okonomiyaki, went to an izakaya (Japanese style bar), and at the end, I got the last of a bottle of sake that the owner recommended 😊I got the last of a bottle as a courtesy 😋. It's like a summer sake with a refreshing taste 😚 and a crisp aftertaste 😋. It went well with oysters, small sardines, conger eels and other specialties. ❤️ I'm going to work hard tomorrow and then go back to the liquor store 🥳.

Japanese>English

I went to buy it on the day it went on sale right after the opening of the direct sales store. The spiciness is tangy and tasty, and it tastes good this year, too, I paired it with mainly autumnal ingredients, It all goes well with sake, and a bottle runs out quickly. Now...the new sake is starting to be available, The new sake has started to appear. I am looking forward to it! No beer today.

Sake brought back from our trip to Niigata Sake recommended by the lady who was selling it. Very gassy 💨 Sake with a strong moromi Dry and crisp 💪. It's a nigori sake, but you can drink it with gusto as a food sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

For my fourth cup, I decided on the "Koshihikari" which caught my attention! The palate is clean and refreshing, but as you taste it, it mellows out a bit with a banana feel. The acidity tightens it up so that it does not interfere with the taste, so it is well-balanced and easy to drink👍.

Japanese>English

This is probably the first time I have had this sake. It is a Niigata-style sake with a strong umami of rice and a dry, refreshing taste. It is a well-balanced sake. The name of the brewery is quite close to the sea in Nagaoka, so I had never heard of it before.

180ml Nishinoseki bought at my usual liquor store. My first Oita! I thought it would be sweet, but the aftertaste is a bit spicy. But it's delicious. It tastes like I'm drinking it.

Japanese>English

We stock sake from Kyushu, which we don't have much of locally. The first one is Nishinoseki. The aroma and taste are quite hard. The first punch worked on my hungry body. It made me hot from the back of my throat to my stomach.

Japanese>English

Welcome off-line meeting for Jay & Nobby (5) It has been almost an hour since the start of the party, and we have about 30 minutes until the last order of drinks. The fifth sake in the lineup was this one, which boasts the lowest sake level of -14. Nishinoseki Nigori Sake. Aroma of rice and malted rice, sweetness reminiscent of amazake, and bitterness after a sharp taste. The pour is smooth and easy to drink 😁.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Sota Watanabe Shoten in August. When I went camping in the summer, I attended with melons from Yamama and Niida Zenshu, but both were gone in an instant, so I didn't raise them to check in 😂. Such is the classic brand of the Niida head family. Did I drink it cold (room temperature) at first? I don't remember. (LOL) I thought it was very tasty when I drank it heated (probably hot)! I thought it was delicious! The complex acidity and umami of the rice, unique to the brewer's yeast, is extended by the warming up of the sake! I love the way the flavor expands when heated. I think it tastes great chilled, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend heating it up. I might want to keep this one on hand. I'm glad I don't have to put the classic in the fridge. I would love to have a fridge for sake, but...

Japanese>English

Ingredient rice: Natural rice (naturally favorable rice grown without using any fertilizers such as pesticides or compost) Rice polishing ratio 90 Alcohol content 15 Niida Honke's sake has been getting a good reputation lately. Personally, I bought this sake because I am in a mini-boom for a higher level of sake other than sweet and fruity. Here we go! The aroma is... What is this? It smells simple and sweet, like freshly baked bread. I have never tasted a sake with such an aroma. The mysterious brewing water is soft, slightly viscous, mineral, and translucent. The sweetness is like freshly baked bread, and the robust, tight rice flavor is as vibrant as ever. There is also a hint of acidity, which is probably due to the use of the sake yeast, but at any rate, it is full of umami. Tamura is a gem that is profound yet light, powerful yet gentle, and a contradiction in terms. It disappeared with a slight sharpness in the back of the throat. In recent years, an increasing number of popular sakes are being hailed as wine-like sake with a sweet and sour taste like grapes. Of course, I like these sake as well. But if you ask me which sake made from rice has the weight, lingering aftertaste, complexity, and simplicity of red wine, I would drink Tamura without hesitation. Thank you again for the food tonight!
