☀️ Nagoya Junmai SAKE WEEK The brewer at this booth seemed to like to talk a lot and we got to hear a lot of stories 😆. He told me about the price of sake rice 😄. Sake 🍶. It won the gold award🥇 at the heated sake awards 👏. The color is amber 🟠. On the palate, it's a purely dry strain with a sense of maturity. It has a thick, robust rice 🌾 flavor and is a royalty. It was a sake that you could feel the life of its creator 🍶. It was getting dark and we ran out of tickets, so we decided to leave the venue and head home 😆.

(*´ч ` *)🍶🍶🍶🍶 I just came back from a trip today and had a glass of Yumezou, a local sake 😀. It's full of flavor and a little dry 😊It has a nice crisp aftertaste and a nice sharp taste 😚. It's also good to drink the sake you bought on your trip while thinking about which one to drink first 🚗🥳.

˙˚ 𓆩 (*´▽`*) ✿𓆪 ˚˙ 🍶🍶🍶🍶 Today we got a cup of Miyamoto Sake Brewery's Yume Sake 😀. It's my first time to try Miyamoto Sake Brewery's sake ✨. It's a strong style sake with lots of flavor 😚 It was a delicious cup 🥳.

Japanese>English

Rice used is unknown Pale gold color, but without much sense of maturity. Slightly light, with strong acidity. It is rather sweet. It has a sharp, clean aftertaste, so you won't get tired of drinking it. The umami flavor also comes through with a zing, making it a deeply flavored sake. The 87th cup of sake

UZUME 3

I bought it at a sake shop in Kintetsu Department Store. I can't read "mother-of-pearl" 🤣I heard it is read as "Uzume", but if you type "den" for mother-of-pearl in your phone, it will come up 😁. If I lived a normal life, I would never use this kanji 😅. I got the impression it's a pineapple with a bit of bitterness 🍍. It was sweeter when I tasted it, so maybe it's sweeter after some time, but it's 500ml and I can't wait that long 🤣. Maybe the aroma is a bit peculiar.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Kintetsu Department Store's Sake Tour. The label is a sheep kept at the brewery. It has a slight sweetness, and is full, rich, and powerful. It has a strong richness. It might be good if it is laid down. There are graininess and nutty nuances. I guess it's normal for a good price. I didn't buy Yamahai because I didn't want the similar taste to continue, but Yamahai might have been better... It's the third day, but I think it's getting sweeter and tastier than the first day.

Japanese>English

Rice used is something from Mie Prefecture Aged for 4 years, pale amber in color. Smoky and graininess with the color as it is. The sweetness is elegant, and the spiciness in the aftertaste has an impact on the throat and nose. It is a little peculiar, but I personally like it! I don't know what the original flavor was, but it has a nice aged feel. ❣️

It is a light amber Junmai-shu brewed with the fantastic sake rice "Kinmon Nishiki". The aroma is cemedine...sweet and bitter with a hint of bitterness! It's dry, so it goes well with thickly seasoned food. For beginners, it is not recommended...? I've been drinking it with bonito sashimi with silver skin...

Japanese>English

This is my first brand. I didn't expect much, but it was delicious and a pleasant miscalculation. The acidity is delicious. It is easy to drink. It is like a summer sake. It has a long aftertaste. It was a hit.

Japanese>English

Purchased at a liquor store near the train station on a business trip to Matsumoto, recommended as a good mid-meal drink. Dry, with a slight apple aroma and sourness, and a clean aftertaste.

On Sunday, I visited the Taste of Morita Co. This is the family brewery of Akio Morita, the founder of Sony. I was attracted by the Aji no Yakata limited edition and bought a bottle. It tasted a little sweeter than I expected and was easier to drink than I expected. 1,650 yen

Japanese>English

(I was tired from eating too much rich food, so I decided to balance it out with some light sake, so I bought a bottle of Nenohi from Yamaya. Nenohi is thin, as was the case with the cup sake. The light flavor is clear but still has the presence of light flavor to make the most of it! Today, I overcame my fear of the new koro and went to a hot spring! The treasure of Amagasaki, Tsukiji Ebisu Spa is still wonderful! I got the locker number 17 and the BIGBOSS number 1! Then I went to Ohmononokunushi Shrine and wished to become a big shot! Then we went to the recently excavated Nozato no Yu! It was a light spring! After that, we went to Hashigawa Shrine along the Yodogawa River, which was also nice!

Japanese>English

Nenohi Honjozo Spring-fermented We had it with hitsu-mabushi at Unazen near Nagoya station 🍶. Hot sake with a hot sake (I heard it's a Nagoya dialect word for "very hot") 😌. The nose has a slight alcohol and lactic acid sour aroma like a sake yeast yeast. When you put it in your mouth, it has a refreshing sweetness and mild acidity. The finish is sharp and seems to wash away the fat of the eel from the mouth. This Nenohi was delicious 😊. The third one is at the famous Izakaya Daijin in Nagoya. I didn't go there because I heard they have almost no Aichi sake on their sake menu 😂.

For a mellow aroma, Fruity sweetness. Compared to "Daishinshu", It has a clean aftertaste, It has a more refined taste.

Japanese>English

Limited brand of Daishinshu: 🇯🇵 Buy it during your pilgrimage to the Holy Land✨. Only about 10 dealers carry this brand. You can find anything in the Holy Land........ 🤣. The ginjo aroma is green apple 🍏. It's been a long time since I've had a Daishinshu, but we share the same aroma 😤. I wonder if the sake rice is Hitogokochi or Miyamanishiki? (→ later I checked and it was Hitogochiki 😳) The balance of sweetness and umami, and then acidity to finish is perfect🤣.

Sake Tasting Gacha at Sasaki Sake Brewery This is another sake limited to the brewery. It was sold in a refrigerator, but I'm not sure if it was fresh sake or not. Gorgeous and fruity. Dry but delicious. 4gou 5500 yen 😱. Most of the high-end sake was made with 1801 yeast.

Japanese>English

Salmon Monogatari in Kansai(´・ω・`) Red is the color of the bottle. It has a moderate ripeness, and the more you chew it, the deeper the flavor becomes. The more you bite into it, the deeper the flavor becomes. It makes you want to have something to eat. It is the type of sake you want to drink slowly, so it may not be suitable for events.

Chiba's local sake 🍶 I had bought it in early spring touring 🏍️... forgot about it... I was thinking of a traditional mellow dry taste... .... I forgot about it...I thought it was a hybrid of old-fashioned and modern...not much aroma...the mouthfeel has the old-fashioned mellow, mellow, umami taste.... It's delicious 😋 Hey...it's a good food sake 🍶 and delicious 😋! This one! I feel it's evolving and deepening...delicious 😋.

Japanese>English

My favorite local sake from MinamibosoThe drink has a light amber color and a faint aroma of Yamada Nishiki rice. You can feel the flavor of the rice. It's mellow, sweet and bitter, and it's fun to sip on it.

Japanese>English

Today, I decided to have a little taste. This is Chiba Prefecture's Kobin. This is the second time. This time, it was decadent and raw, so I picked it up. The taste is classic but thin. It was too little to sense the others.
