( *´꒳` )️🍶🍶🍶🍶 本日は初めての新澤醸造店の飛龍を頂きました😀 香りはあまり感じませんね🤔口当たりは、軽快でリンゴを思わせる心地よい吟醸香😘綺麗でサラリとした甘味と旨味が、パッと広がって消える😚爽やかな酸味の切れが良き👍✨ 綺麗な食中酒の様に感じました🥳

Last night was a New Year's party with a couple I met last year. We had dinner at a nice restaurant and then went to Kokubuncho. After the fourth bar, I finally had a chance to drink sake. I have known the owner of this sake bar on the outskirts of the city for about 25 years now. The lighting doesn't look like it's the kind of place you'd enjoy sake, but don't worry about that. The selection is quite good, so go for something you've never tried before. First up is Hiryu, the one with Tatsumi Fujinami's red towel. A dry sake with a refreshing yet tasty flavor, just like Mr. Shinzawa! Thank you very much for your hospitality!

My best friend gave me a small bottle to share with my last drink 😆👍. By the way, my best friend's wife recommended it to me. She likes it dry 😄. It's been a long time since I've had a dry sake, but I'm ready to try it💦. The aroma is fruity👍. I'm not a fan of too much dryness, but it was a good experience 🤗.

Today we are going out for a drink. This izakaya is a rare izakaya where you can eat a lot of vegetables 😁The sashimi is also reasonably priced with sea bream and swordfish. They sell vegetables, so they have a large selection of vegetable-based soft drinks. They mainly have local Shizuoka sake, but they also have a lot of Omuraya sake from the famous Omuraya brewery, which is famous for Wakatake and Onna no Nyokase 🧐 This is the first time I've had anything from this brewery. Today's sake was Oni Otome. I was in the mood for a sweet sake. The flavor was full and spreading. It is delicious 😋. We had it with sashimi, tempura, and meat rolls!

4 points Well, it has a strong oaky aroma, but it doesn't open up when the sake is cold. Must be heated!

Japanese>English

It is a new sake, but it has the richness of an old sake and a medicinal taste similar to Shaoxing sake. When heated to human skin, the medicinal taste disappears and it becomes milder. I'd rather drink it with Chinese dishes with lots of pepper than with sashimi.

This is the first jacket I've ever seen with shurikens 💠. It's so sharp, it's called "super dry"! I thought it would be pretty grueling, but it was 20 degrees alcohol😇.

Japanese>English

Converted from fruity sake Must be a summer sake, this label But it was cloudy. It was very thick, so I kept the glass half-full. It's crisp and dry, with a hint of sourness because it's a Yamahai sake. Not my favorite genre. I had it as a palate freshener. Sorry! Mifukyu is a sake brewed by the brewery that produces Nikkuro-Tsuchiboshi! It was my first time! (some of the secrets of the brewery's secrets) Ingredients : Sake rice produced in Shiga Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 60 Alcohol content : 15

Japanese>English

The seventh and final sake is Mifuku Mifuku, a sake from Shiga Koka. We close with a fresh taste with a flavor of Yamahai brewing. Thank you very much for the meal.

It was sweet and delicious☺. I could drink it in one gulp 💕.

Japanese>English

Cold. Purchased at Fukuda Sake Brewery. I bought a lot of it, so I drank it all at once to reduce the amount. It is a sparkling type, not too sweet, not too spicy, and easy to drink, but it has 14% alcohol content. I am not a fan of carbonation, so the carbonation was stronger than I expected, and it hurt my nose. I think I prefer Nagasaki Bijin if they are made by the same brewer.

Japanese>English

Crystal silver coloration. Melon, apple, etc., ethyl caproate. Ueshin powder, white dumplings, lime. Elegant sweetness, acidity is smooth, full-bodied and pleasantly bitter. While it has a sweet aroma, it is relatively dry and clean as a taste. Personally, I quite like the taste.

Unfiltered raw sake & Asahi rice for 2,530 yen including tax is a super deal ‼️ It is not so fresh, but has a refreshing mouthfeel with a slight sense of maturity. The rich umami comes in smoothly, and the finish is crisp and tight. It has a good balance of bitterness, bitterness, and sweetness, and is the type of sake that one does not get tired of drinking as an unfiltered, unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. It is a good sake to drink with food or as an evening drink. ❗️ It was delicious. ❣️

Japanese>English

It tastes a little bit like aged, but it has all the sweetness, flavor, bitterness, and spiciness you would expect. It tastes like tea. It tastes like apple tea. It is a slightly different type of flavor. It tastes juicy, sweet and spicy. Some people may find it spicy, but it's a subtle taste.

Japanese>English

It is a junmai ginjo from Omachi and has a rather strong flavor.

The fourth one is Nechi-Osan. This is my first time to visit this brewery. I always thought it was "KONCHI". Sorry locals! The taste of rice is well expressed, but the overall taste is clean and dry. The aftertaste is a bit peculiar, but it is good in its own way. Thank you!

OSAKA SAKE&FOOD EXPO 2024⑳ Lastly, we went to the Komatsuya booth again. Nechi from Nechiozan, which is not seen very often. There were many different rice varieties, but we chose the Koshitanrei 1st class rice 2020. Nechi is only available at authorized dealers. It was easy to drink with a beautiful taste and a hint of sweetness. The review of this event was a bit of a mess, so please refer to Nechi's post later on 🤣.

Japanese>English

☆☆☆☆☆ The second bottle of local sake is Nechiozan. This one is drier than Yukitsuru. But it does not interfere with the meal, yet it is still a strong sake. I think it is good.

At Nihonbashi Fukushima-kan 15%, firm but with a short aftertaste, the kind you want to sip on with food.

Sake 🍶 that came with my accommodation plan on a recent business trip to Fukushima. It's been a while since I had a cup of sake 🍶. I chilled it and it tasted surprisingly sweet and delicious 😋There were some pickles included with the sake, but I forgot to eat them💦. More importantly, I was on a business trip to Fukushima, so I went there to enjoy the local sake, When I went to the sake shop, they didn't have the sake I was looking for 😱. All the good local izakayas were full ⤵︎ I was told that you can't get in without a reservation. Shocked because I couldn't get local sake or seafood 😭. I decided to make a reservation next time!

Store Drinking. HITOGOKICHIKI 100% The color is clear or slightly amber. The aroma is that of rice. When you sip it, you will taste the flavor of rice. It has a dry ALC feel. There is no fruity sweetness, and the taste is stoic. The rice sweetness remains until the end, with a rounded aftertaste. It has the impression of a Junmai Doshin🎯 royal road.

I went to Ueda, so I bought a bottle of Wada Ryutonomizu. It was a delicious hiyaoroshi with a good taste of rice. None of the people I drank with today knew about it. I thought it was pretty famous in my opinion, but... Is that so?

It has been a long time since I have been on a business trip. This is a locally brewed sake from Chiba, the place of my business trip. The sake rice is Chiba's local "Chusei Jinryoku". It is a little spicy and powerful sake that goes well with bonito tataki.

Very easy to drink.
