@sakebar Fukuzo This is the last sake I drank at Fukuzo 🍶. For those of you who think "how much have you had to drink? I think so too😅. The first aroma is sweet with classic acidity. It has a full-bodied sweet flavor with a hint of acidity on the palate. It's also a great costumed honjozo that doesn't make you feel like it's been soaked in alcohol 😋. It was delicious 🍶✨. Thank you for everything, landlady 🙇🙇🙇.

Tonight is fruit drinking. p Grapes are Kyoho and Honey Venus. The plums are Kiyo. The apples are Granny Smith. I think this sake is however classy, well-balanced and delicious.

We went on a bullet trip to a hot spring in Gunma 😆♨️ Before arriving at the ryokan, we went to a local liquor store. I decided to buy some Gunma sake at a local liquor store before we arrived at the ryokan! I was so excited, I visited Takahashi Yo Shoten for the first time, which I sometimes order from Corona Disaster! I visited Takahashi Yoh Shoten for the first time! I found a bottle of sake that I had ordered before and was very impressed. The Gan brewed by Mikito Takai, who is no longer with the company, was really delicious, so I chose the New Gan with the feeling that I would like to try it too. I was surprised to find that it was brewed by Mikito Takai! And it's still delicious 😭✨ It was great slightly chilled, but also great warmed 👍. Not spectacular, but deeply delicious... And it's so cosy! I brought home the rest of the bottle. I'm going to drink it with care 🍶🎶.

Tonight, our first series, Kikuyu by Yoshikawa Brewery from Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It is 100% Dewa Sanzu, Junmai Nama-no-Hajime made with Kyoukai No. 6 yeast. It has a ginjo aroma between cucumber and pear, and the first sip is clear with a full sweetness, but later on, a strong bitterness and alcohol taste follows, making it dry and smooth.

Japanese>English

Tonight, we decided to open a new sake once in a while, so we had this one from the Yoshikawa Sake Brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture. Junmai Nigori Sake - Luxurious Aragoshi ✨✨✨✨. The sake seems to have been bottled after the new sake unrefined sake has been roughly fermented 😄. The aroma has a hint of pear and apple. When you take a sip, you can feel the gasiness and acidity, but it is juicy and delicious 😋😋😋😋 When you mix the lees, you can feel the sweetness of the rice and the creaminess increases, which is also delicious 😋😋. This was definitely one to repeat 🤗

Japanese>English

A bottle I bought on my first visit at the beginning of the year. It has been a long time since I have had a bottle with a dry, Han-like taste. It has a strong alcohol taste. If you warm it too much, the strength will increase, It is best to warm it up to lukewarm to get the right roundness. It was cold, so we had it with oden.

This sake was tasted along with the Junmai Ginjo I posted earlier. We were there when the store opened on the first day of tasting and sales, so all the sakes were unsealed, so we were able to sample them in fresh condition. I recommend going on Wednesday when the store opens 😆. It is Rokumaru with 60% rice polishing ratio. It is the same as Shinomine. It has more richness and umami than Junmai Ginjo. It is suitable for warming up.

Japanese>English

A little bitterness on the nose and bitterness on the tongue. It tastes a bit like old-fashioned sake. However, it goes well with boiled fish. It is like a flavorful addition to fish. It would have been nice to have some local fish, but since we were drinking at home...

Japanese>English

Junmai-shu made from "Strong" sake rice, a sake rice produced only in Tottori Prefecture, with a milling ratio of 75%. Tottori's fantastic revived rice "Strong" is made into sake in the traditional way of sake brewing, utilizing the power of nature. It has a beautiful acidity and warms up when heated.

Scoring: ☆☆☆☆ Ryu-boiling, another brand of Shuyooshi, 10th anniversary sake: ㊗️ I found a good commemorative sake 😁. Seri salad and jumbo meat yakisai! Fill it up with Ryu-boiling 💕. Shuyooshi is for a food sake, but Ryu-Boing is a sake that can be drunk by itself. This commemorative sake is made entirely from Momota, Akita's new sake rice! Gorgeous aroma with a hint of sweetness: ❣️ The full-bodied rice flavor of Momota is a nice touch 🎶. To top it off, there is also a sense of heaviness that gives a sense of a man's sake that comes slowly to a Hidariyoshi-like body (lol). And then...! 700 check-ins 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Akita Sake 200 check-ins🌾🌾🌾. **Banzai‼️ Achieved at the last round of drinking with Chichi and Eririn㊗️🎉 (I didn't realize it that day💦thought it was about time😅) With this, the party was over 😊. Chichi went to Hirosaki via Goshogawara on the Gono-Line the next day Eririn went to Akita the next day to do her New Year's shopping before heading home. Thank you both for a wonderful time <(_ _)>.

From our friends in Akita Full-flavored flavor comes to the fore It goes well with a variety of dishes. I find myself drinking too much of this sake. Very tasty!

A dry sake with a nice sharp taste✨ Sake tastes even better when you drink it at a counter with a slightly higher chair height 💭.

(**Oh, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!) 🍶🍶🍶🍶+ At Sakeiki Daigo (No.18) We had the all-you-can-drink course and had the Shiga Daijiro 😀 I don't remember much, but I think it was like an old-fashioned sake 🤔.

Japanese>English

It has a very rich, ripe, sweet, thick, full-bodied taste (¡Ω). And yet it is not cloying. It's the kind of warmed sake I like to drink when it's cold. I'd like to make this a staple in my house because it hits my favorite part of heating sake.

Japanese>English

The sake from the west, I thought it would be strong and angular, but it had a mellowness similar to the sake from the east, especially on the second day, and the sweetness was great. It was a small sake brewery according to Google, but it was very good with careful sake.
