Tonight, I'm back at work after GW, but naturally I'm not very excited 🥴. This one is brewed with Dewa Sanzu and Kyokai No. 6 yeast. The aroma is mild without being showy. It is a versatile sake with a soft sweetness and acidity of cucumber and herbs and a clean aftertaste that is also very sake-like 😊. It is as delicious as the rumors say 😋😋😋😋😋.

Tonight, here is a very popular project sake from Yamagata 💁. La Jomon Shoumon Koji Triple Masamune Nama Sake 2023BY✨. I think it is safe to say that this is the second most popular sake after Jyushidai. I think it is. Well, it's hard to buy and sells out quickly 😫 Now, this is the first Koji Sanbai Masozo-shu Nama-shu in my house. As you know, the specs are as perverted as you can imagine 🤣 it is made with Dewanosato x 66% koji ratio x 66% milled rice ratio x Kyokai No.6 yeast 🤣. The taste is very pleasant with the strong acidity of triple the koji, and it is easy to drink. It is not white koji, but it reminds me of a certain cat sake 😺.

Tonight, I opened a bottle of this one to accompany my dinner of kochi and kampachi sashimi and squid cod roe 💁. La Jomon Six Nama Sake 2023BY✨ We happened to have a lot of Six Nama Sake on hand, so we'll have a quick bottle. When I poured a glass of chilled sake, it had the usual mild uri aroma, a beautiful acidity, a little sweetness and citrusy flavor like Pocari, and the second half was a mix of astringent, bitter, and spicy flavors. It can be served alone or as a mealtime drink. I'm going to try the "Murasame" that some of the connoisseurs in the area are trying later 🙌

At the traveling SAKE in Hankyu Department Store. It is made from Yumesasara. The sake is fresh like a fresh sake. It is delicious with a fruity sweetness that is not too sweet.

Japanese>English

Buy at Asahikawa Marushin Shoten The rice used is Yumesasara from Tochigi prefecture. It is a low alcohol type, but it has a moderate sweetness, and as expected from an unpasteurized sake, it has a crisp taste. The acidity is also a bit like white wine, so it can be used with western food. It is an all-round food sake. It is the first time to drink Sawahime, so it is difficult to evaluate only this one, but it is an interesting brewery!

Rice used is Fumei Purchased at Fukuoka Airport There was also a limited edition sake for the airport, but I'll get back to that later. It's more like a sour or a juice, or something like that. It's not too sweet, so it's easy to drink. Depending on the food and the situation, I think this is also possible...

Japanese>English

Fresh and slightly floral. Freshly pressed rice aroma with a hint of banana and melon. When chilled, it is crisp, but has a firm body due to the 17% alcohol content.

This sake is sold by a united effort of breweries in Ishikawa Prefecture. The sake store I visited had two varieties, Kochira and Tedorigawa. Hoping for the recovery😌. It is a medium, slightly sweet delicious sake with a smooth texture. Microbubbles at the bottom of the glass. The mild aroma reminds me of green apple and the fresh sweet and sour taste is impressive and refreshing. Very tasty.

Japanese>English

(˶ᐢωᐢ˶)🍶🍶🍶+ Today was the first time I had the local sake Lion's Village 😀 I had never seen a sake brewery in Ishikawa using Sake Mirai so I bought it 😊. The aroma is a fresh type of ginjo aroma 😚 The mouthfeel is soft and fruity with a soft, fizzy and fruity aroma. The sweetness and umami are moderate and cut by a refreshing acidity 🤔This was delicious 😋.

Japanese>English

At Isego Honten. I saw the arrival guide of the store. I drank it last year and it was delicious, so I repeated it. Ise-Go Honten special order sake. The chameleon label attracts attention👍. It's a little dry this year. said the shopkeeper😊. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure you'll like it. I'm sure you'll like it. I'm not sure what to make of it. But I like the taste😋. It's similar to Abe Shuzo's Black Abe!

October 2024 Dairy and Yeast Hornbill Report 2📝. I had a drink at the HYOGO SAKE EXPO, and without knowing it, I decided to have it here again 🍶. Nutty and sweet, but flows smoothly like Yamada Nishiki 💨. I looked at the label carefully and realized that it was a draft sake.

Japanese>English

It is a gift from a friend. Thank you. It is a sake from Nada. It is very easy to drink and delicious, just like a Junmai Daiginjo! The mouthfeel is slightly mineral, and the fruity flavor comes through softly. It is soft and not too sweet, but it leaves a slightly tangy aftertaste that makes you want another sip! I usually drink mostly sake from the north, but sometimes I think that sake from the west is also delicious.

Our annual sake party 😁 today with three of us 🌸. My friend brought me this sake from Naito Brewery in Sobue, Aichi👍. It's very light and easy to drink. It has a dry throat, but not too much acidity, and you can taste the flavor😋. It's a great sake to drink with two great drinkers and it's easy to drink like water😝.

Japanese sake party with a wild rice cake! A toast to the local sake brought by my friend👍. The aroma is subdued, but when you put it in your mouth, the sweetness spreads at once 😋 It's not rich, but the taste is strong. It is a dangerous sake that can be drunk easily😝. I had it with some sashimi and it was delicious. I'm sure you'll agree that sashimi is a must for sake👍.

First Nagoya Night of the Year First sakayu at the hotel after a long time meeting for dinner The rice used was Yumesansui produced in Aichi Prefecture. An orthodox junmai sake with a strong sweetness. It is best to drink it chilled after a meal. It is not too heavy, but I felt it was a little heavy.

This was the third bottle we drank on New Year's Day. We saved the Hakurakusei we had brought for another time and opened a bottle of Okutanba provided by my sister and her husband, as we did last year. It is dry but slightly fruity and easy to drink. It goes well with strong flavored dishes. Thank you very much.

Japanese>English

It's my first time to visit the Yamana Shuzo brewery in Okutamba. Is it a sake made from the same yeast as the original yeast? If so, I'd like to try it hot ❗️ Oh, this is delicious ‼️. It's a perfect harmony of sweet and sour, mellow and mild 🥰I read "Chitose" when I'm in Hokkaido 😅Thanks for the great taste.

This is a gifted Junmai Ginjo, a sake from Nagano. It's fruity but not sweet in the mouth, and it has a crisp and well-balanced bitterness... This quality goes well with "X" cuisine, not just raw sake.

Japanese>English

Warmed. The spiciness with the umami is crisp.

A year ago, we heard the shocking news that the Furuya Sake Brewery in Saku, Nagano Prefecture was destroyed by fire. 🐰💦. I bought Furuya's sake as part of a project called "Saku Wakate 13 Sake Breweries Drinking Comparison" at a time when sake consumption was in the doldrums due to the Corona disaster, and the label was beautiful 🌸✨It was my favorite sake, so the news of the fire broke my heart. I went to a liquor store for the first time in about a year and found a sake labeled "Fukayamazakura" at ❗️ I was surprised and picked it up to find that it was brewed with rice that survived the fire at Kurosawa Sake Brewery, also in Saku. The specs were Acl15, a fire-aged junmai ginjo brewed with 59% polished rice from Hitogokochi grown in Nagano Prefecture. The impression is that it is not too sweet, not too spicy, not too much aroma, and clean, well-balanced, and easy-to-drink food sake✨. However, the lingering taste left a depth, if not a sense of maturity. It was as if that depth was the depth of thought that went into brewing this sake. If you see it at a liquor store, please support and purchase 🐰💓. Finally, thank you Kurosawa Sake Brewery. I know it must be really tough for everyone at Furuya Brewery, but please take care of yourselves. I am looking forward to seeing your sake again while supporting you from the shadows!

Hakkeikubiki is a series of the eight blessings of Kakizaki: sun, water, earth, sky, wind, trees, snow, and people. This is wind. Come to think of it, it was windy in Kakizaki. This is the second bottle from the Sake Rice Study Group. The sake rice is locally grown Koshitanrei. The aroma is light, but has the gorgeous flavor of a daiginjo. The taste is very broad. It is delicious.

Japanese>English

This is also a sake that I got through a hometown tax payment. The taste...I don't know...I remember it being overshadowed by other delicious sake. I think it was a light sake with a moderate sweetness.

Japanese>English

At Soba Days One of the sake drinking sets I heard it is written "soil" and reads "dai-chi". It tastes like "Oh" when you put it in your mouth, but the aftertaste is so refreshing that you wonder what it tastes like. What was the taste like again? It makes me want to drink it again! I thought he was a friend I see once a month or something.
