I was in Himeji and went to the Tatsuriki store 😊. Daiginjo with a pretty refreshing taste, dry I guess? I haven't had a sake like this lately.

( -̀ᴗ-́ ) ̖́-🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we opened a bottle of Shinryu Nishiki that we purchased at the Tatsuriki store in Himeji station😃. The aroma is gorgeous and pear-like 😊The rounded mouthfeel, overall mild acidity and umami 😄Great crispness that disappears quickly 😘I felt it was an easy sake to pair with a meal 🥳. The last picture is of the Japanese garden next to Himeji Castle. It was very beautiful and relaxing 🥰.

This is my last post of the year😊. Thank you all so much for being with us this year! Please take care of yourselves and let's enjoy another year of good drinks🥰 Now, this sake has an otona taste ✨👠 It's a little dry, with a good combination of flavor and richness, and it's even sexy💖. I wonder if it's the precious rice that makes it so or if the brewer is good at it, it's so good 👏! Next time I come across it again I will definitely buy it 🎵.

The last sake of January is a new sake from Shichida......fresh citrus aroma, new sake with a sweet to bitter taste! →The mouthfeel is also new sake 🍶 with a sweet to bitter, sharp taste. Very fresh...freshness...good acidity in the aftertaste leaves a lingering aftertaste and a full feeling of drinking sake.... Delicious...this is...I'm enjoying it with my usual sashimi...little by little...

Japanese>English

Posting today, right after drinking! My favorite Shichida! Plus, it's Orikagara! Impeccable! Not deliciously sweet, but crisp and tangy! It's not sweet, but it's crisp and piquant!

(**Thanks to 🍶🍶🍶🍶) I'm opening a bottle of Hayaseura from Fukui Prefecture 😀 I've been looking forward to it since I bought it at the brewery last year 😆. The aroma is mild and pear ✨😊😊The mouthfeel is light with a beautiful sweetness and umami 😚It also has a nice acidity and sharpness 😘It is sweet and umami but has a clean aftertaste 🥰This is a delicious sake😍This is a perfect strike👍👍👍 It's a sweet and tasty sake that is dangerous to drink ✨🥳🥳.

Japanese>English

Mouthfeel, mellow 🍶. Slightly sour, slightly bitter✨ Complex taste or nice 🌸 I enjoy it very much.

Japanese>English

［Fukui Spring New Sake Festival (9) The event was coming to an end with a series of sake from Ishikawa. We decided to try something a little different and had a drink here 🍶. Hayaseura Special Junmai Sake "Umi-no-Otoko This is an old sake that has been stored in the brewery for 3 years and was served warmed 😁. The aroma of rice flavor, the gentle texture on the tongue, the impact of the flavor at the back of the throat, the warm aftertaste of heated sake, and the bitter taste at the back of the throat at the end........ It is a "man of the sea" respecting fishermen who work at sea, and I feel that it is strongly made to go well with local fatty seafood and salty preserved food 😋. The entrée sold out unexpectedly quickly, so I emptied it before I could check its true value💦.

At home. Cui Yu after a long time. It's more elegant and refined than Hanayup... Hmmm, I have the impression that it has been generalized. The aroma is green apple, the sweetness and sourness are well balanced, and the finish is sharp, so you can't help but drink too much. On the middle day of the week, I drank a good sake to get through the rest of the week, and nourished my wisdom.

Japanese>English

The brewery is famous for its "Hanayuup. Compared to "Hanayuup", the aroma is mild. The aroma is mild. The sweetness is moderate. and the umami is as strong as the Hanamup. and it cuts cleanly. As a food sake, it is more versatile. I think it is more versatile as a food sake.

Japanese>English

The aroma is mild. The first sip is sweet, but gradually a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity spreads. The last part has a good spiciness and a nice sharpness. Although it is unfiltered, there is no heaviness, and it is smooth to the palate. After a few days of drinking, the sweetness has gone away and the acidity has risen, but it is also delicious. Hana Yuu is good, but Suiyu is as good as it gets.

This year's Hiyaoroshi starts here. It's been a while since I've bought a GANKI because of the label, but it's still stable and delicious 😀. The first glass after taking it out of the fridge was too refreshing, but after the second glass, the rice flavor and the elegant sweetness are well balanced, and the food and sake go well together😋. The price was reasonable and I was satisfied with the bottle👍.

( ´ ´ ` )🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we had a bottle of A-Sakura purchased at Murai, a local sake brewery 😄A collaboration product with A-Sakura? I found it in a corner shop in Akita station 🤔. The aroma is a gorgeous ginjo aroma, and the dryness comes after the umami of the rice 😚 It has a nice sharpness and would go well with any food 😘The description "umami dry" is right on the money 😙I felt it was like a royal road sake 😀.

Japanese>English

Second drink~♪ Yes, a sip and a piquant! Ah, here comes the taste of sizzling rice after a nice spiciness ˃˃. Super nice and dry Junmai! I drank it all while thinking "So that's what this is all about!
