January 9th New Year's party at Kakiya with 15 local guys🎊. 1) Tongjun 2) Kameman The review will be summarized in 2.

Japanese>English

What a wonderful time on a weekday at noon. It has a clean taste, but the aroma of rice is very strong. Although it is said to be mild, it is a sake with a lot of body.

At Utage dokoro rooshu in Kitashinchi, Osaka. Good balance of umami and acidity. It is fresh and easy to drink. It was delicious.

I went on a business trip to Aomori the other day and brought this as a souvenir. I vaguely matched it with squid or tuna. I thought it was probably a local luxury sake. It was a very tasty and elegant sake.

The 4th Michinoku Antenna Shop

It is a Hakkouda Oroshi Gin-Sen 🍶. The daiginjo I've had before is 100% Hanabukiyuki, but this one has koji as Hanabukiyuki🌾 and kake as Mashigure🍚. The top aroma is slightly sweet. When you put it in your mouth, it has a slight sweetness and a nice sharpness. It is less sweet than the Hakkouda Oroshi Daiginjo in a cup that I bought at Shin-Aomori station last year. It was delicious. ✨️

Nama Sake 🍶. Nagano Ueda Railway Journey🚃Day 3 Light and smooth. Sweet but not sticky. A little fruity. Peachy katsu-don with a hint of acidity 😋It was a very relaxing restaurant and gave my body a rest after being down in the heat 👍I would like to visit again ✨. Sanyuken @ Bessho Onsen 20240907

Mellow sake 🍶. Nagano Ueda Railway Journey🚃Day 3 From Ueda, take the Ueda Dentetsu Bessho Line🚃 to Bessho Onsen (Bessho Hot Springs) ♨️ Lunch at the diner that was reflected in the setting of the 18th film Otoko wa Tsuraiyo. The aroma of the food was very strong. But it is sweet and gentle, not harsh. It has just the right amount of maturity. Goes well with Nozawana. It softens the salty taste of Nozawana. The chicken gizzard and boiled pork are also delicious 😋 I'm so glad I found a hidden gem restaurant 😆. Sanyuken @ Bessho Onsen 20240907

😊. Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic) Alcohol Content:16%. I managed to get over the train when I was with Yuka-chan, but I did it on the way home from drinking with the second daughter (I am the eldest) of the Otsubonez (three bureau sisters) in my department. I lost my memory at the next station where we sat down, saying "I might fall asleep if I get to sit down. Why didn't I wake up 5 minutes before? The train in the opposite direction was the last of the day and I had to wait 20 minutes. I managed to only sleep on the platform. Then I had a blast sleeping in the cab as well... Now, to get back on track, here is the evening drink of the day. The aroma was sweet, but when I drank it, the sweetness was not as strong as the aroma, and there was a good balance of sweetness, sourness, and finally bitterness. It went very well with a little bit of shibi-shibi (bean-curd soup with red pepper paste).

Koshino Hakugan is a 50% polished ginjo. This is a light, easy-drinking ginjo-shu that is typical of Niigata sake. Serve with tempura of wild vegetables.

Japanese>English

I've never seen this brand before. It's mostly consumed in Niigata Prefecture, so it's not sold outside the prefecture. I was lucky enough to drink it 😄. It's chilled but very juicy, and it's a true trendy combination of sweetness and refreshment. I drank it at the end of a drinking party, so there wasn't much left of the knob, but it's a very powerful drink that works well on its own. I'd really like to taste it at home, so if I find it somewhere else, I'll definitely buy it 😙. But I drank too much yesterday 😨

The first sip was swoopy and I couldn't keep up with the flavors, but from the next I could feel the strong, dark flavor. I also enjoyed how it settled down over time.

Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`;) It is five years old, and when heated up, it has a slightly sweet graininess. Sourness is also light. When it cools down, the juiciness becomes more apparent. It is considered to be an old sake that is easy to drink.

I wanted a dry, dry drink. There are days when I'm in that mood. You might say don't choose raw, but I realized it after the sake bottle came. I enjoyed it with yudofu. It fits my mood today. When I think of dry, dry sake, I think of Niigata, Hiroshima, and Kochi. I admit to disagreeing.

Japanese>English

This Sake paired well with the home made bacon we had with dinner. The flavor profile is bright with the flavor of banana and has a dry, clean finish. The dryness is mild and not overly strong.

★3.0 Weak aroma, herbaceous, cemedine, muscat. The mouthfeel is also quite dry. Quite dry for a Fukushima sake. Would go well with fatty sashimi.

Sangu is the first time in about 2 years of sales. It has a solid body with the power of Aizan, but it feels lighter than the last time I drank it. It also seems a little sweeter... Is it my imagination? I have no complaints, and I still like the same type, but I wonder if my taste buds have changed? When I evaluate it calmly, I can taste the flavor and the sharpness is good. It is not fruity, but it is slightly sweet and well-balanced. It is a good sake!

Japanese>English

Iga tasted sake from Nabari. We were served a five-year-old aged sake. The amber-colored sake was full of flavor that had been nurtured and matured over the years. It was a truly delicious sake with a dense flavor.

Japanese>English

Nabari City, Mie Prefecture. Sawa Sake Brewing Company. Sangu Special Junmai Sake Tsukiyomi Sangu" which seems not to be drinkable any more. It was too good to drink, but I opened the bottle because I thought it was better to drink it before it got twitchy. We drank it cold. The first aroma is mild, citrusy, and alkali aroma. The color is clear with a slight yellow tinge. The taste starts with a slightly sharp acidity, and the nose is filled with a fluffy, mature aroma and a gradually swelling umami flavor. A slightly bitter taste lingers on the tongue and is slightly spicy. Maybe not my favorite... I think it is suitable for warming, so I tried heating it up. First trip to Nobee Yokocho this season! When heated, the acidity mellows out, the sweetness spreads as if the entire tongue is coated, the umami is more easily felt, and the acidity is calmed down. It is best when heated from about 50℃ and cooled down to lukewarm or lukewarm. I tried it when pyonpyon told me that heating it up softens the edginess, and it was perfect 😉. Heating up is a very deep process 🙄. Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice malt (domestic) Rice used: 100% Saganohana Polishing ratio: Kakemai 50%, Kakemai 68 Alcohol content: 16

Next up was the Ittiki Senzan Comet Nama-no-Hara Sake. The only sake from Gifu that I know of is Ikki Senzan, so I thought I'd give it a try. It was a brand that had just been opened. It was a brand that had just been opened, so I liked the way the flavor was firmly on the tongue. The sweetness was not too strong and flowed down the throat easily. This is the first hit I've had in a long time. I wanted to drink it slowly, but I had to keep up with the pace of my grandchildren. I was getting too hungry to let them play with their toys, so I quickly settled my bill. It was different from a drinking party among adults, but I was glad that we could enjoy eating and drinking together. (^^)/

Koshihikari. Lids fly off, baptism of foam... Sourness and spiciness are pertinent. The fizzy sensation makes the rest of the taste smooth.

Japanese>English

Part 3 This brand is new to me 🤗. Yopa Memo_φ(___) It's like a combination of yogurt and solid sake 🍶. I don't think it has much acidity🙄. It has a clean and solid expression. You can drink it smoothly 😃. It was delicious 😋😋😋.
