Setoichi has many variations, so I thought I would start with Sakata-Nishiki, but I found it on my trip and tasted it at the inn. It was elegant and mild, but had a strong flavor and was quite good. Next time, I would definitely like to try Sakata Nishiki.

Scoring: ☆☆☆☆☆ I popped it again this year lol (3 years in a row 😆) Jungin, 2750 yen for a bottle, a cosy sake. ❣️ Gentle fruity aroma, light, mellow and round taste 😋. Gentle bitterness with a nice sharpness👍. As always, ( -̀ω-́ )و✧ ✧ Umai! For more information, see my review from last November🤣. New ramen🍜 restaurant in the city: ✨️ I've had my eye on this place for a while but never got around to going 💦. Today, my family of three decided to definitely go ‼️ I had the delicious spicy chives soba🍜 and my partner had the black ramen🍜. My partner had the Black Ramen 🍜 and my daughter had the Aburan Chicken Set Meal 🍜. My daughter had the Aburinon Chicken Set Meal 🍚. It's a ramen shop with a wide variety of set meals 🎶. Mildly spicy and full of flavor ❣️ And plenty of chives 😁. The noodles are also my favorite watery and curly noodles. My family and I were very satisfied ( ¯﹀¯ ) I'm also interested in the "Mapo Ramen", so I'll go again.... I'll go there again....

I found this Fukuoka sake in my impatience to color the map of Japan💦😅. It's very dry! I think it's around extra brut in sparkling wine🥂. It's crisp and dry 💪. It's a very dry sake! Polishing ratio 55, content 200ml, blue bottle, luxury image✨.

The mid-palate is full of umami and spiciness as if it were a nishimoto.

Brewed in Miyama, Kyoto. It was awarded the gold medal in the honjozo category at the 2020 International Wine Challenge. It is like a grassy sweet potato shochu. Strong alcohol taste. 5

I bought this sake at Nishizawa Shoten, a liquor store in front of Kawayuonsen station in Teshikaga-cho❗ I went to the south for the first time to try a sake I had never had before 😊I see this sake is made by Miyoshino Brewery, which brews Hanaboe 😃. The color is amber as you can see! It has a rich and sweet taste like an aged sake! I think it has the feeling of being organic due to the Yamahai method 😋. I would like to have a bottle with something salty like cheese or cured ham 😉.

Japanese>English

It had just the right amount of sweetness for me. (Leaning towards sweet) I would drink it again.

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024⑱. The last of the Yomiuri Shimbun booth is here. There are stores where you can buy Nihonshin, and I've had it, but I've never seen such an expensive sake... Yamada-Nishiki 40% polished rice More modern label than the Nihonshin I drank at home 😁. It's gorgeous, but I felt it's more sake-like... The label is also modern and written in English, so I wonder if it's for export?

Japanese>English

This one, like the Ko-Imari, was purchased when I was with Yoohee-san. The rice is Matsuyama Mitsui. It has a melon-like taste and a strong bitter taste like bitter melon. I thought it would be a little sweeter, but it is quite spicy. It is more like melon or cemedine. It is not my favorite type of rice.

#Nagasaki Goto Town# w river/o/pine/hori/fuku/yama I visited with a customer from Hokuriku. To compete with them with seafood, We consulted with them in advance about "Uchiwa Shrimp" caught in Hirado, Nagasaki. We consulted with them in advance and asked them to secure it for us at the market. We had them as sashimi. It was like a smaller horseshoe crab. They were very pleased 😁. Now for the 🍶... For a moment, I thought it would be dry. I thought it was dry, I felt sweetness. The freshness goes well with sashimi. The shrimp was served in miso soup later 🎉.

The second cup is a local sake from Tsushima, which is also rarely seen in the Kansai region. The rice flavor gently spreads in this drink, which I never get tired of drinking. Tsushima is another place I would like to visit someday.

Nigori (nigori). It has a sweet sake-like aroma. It is sweet to the taste. The gaseous feeling is already gone. The texture is more refreshing than expected. It has a moderately fruity acidity and goes down smoothly. It goes down the throat well. It is very drinkable. Degree of liking ☆3.5/5

It tastes like typical sake. Here is a description. This sake is made with only 70% sake rice so that the original flavor of the rice can be enjoyed. It is a sake that can be enjoyed as an affordable everyday evening drink. In winter, we recommend heating it up and enjoying it with hot pot dishes.

Japanese>English

Another one this time. It is Takatsugawa by Fusozuru. It is from Shimane Prefecture. I saw Hiraccio-san drinking it and longed for it 🙌. First at room temperature. The color is a solid yellow. The aroma is mildly savory with a hint of maturity. It smells like caramel, soy sauce, and cream cheese. The mouthfeel is gentle. The palate is drowned in the complex flavor of aged rice with a moderate acidity. When heated up, it becomes smoother and more balanced, and you can just keep on drinking it. It has a relaxing and soothing taste. When tasted with a thick Shigaraki-ware sake cup, the warmth of the clay makes it taste even better. The warmth of the clay makes it even softer and happier 💕. Aizu girl and the Takatsu River I will relax my body and soul in the late winter. What a good evening drink 😊.

It was served lukewarm with sukiyaki for the first time this season.

Next, we open a bottle of "Izutsucho"! When the bottle is opened, there is not much of an aroma, but there is a coffee-like aroma, such as café au lait, that can be detected. The palate is light, but the taste is milky and milky. There is also a bitter and astringent taste, which gives the sensation of drinking a green tea latte 🍵. THE caffeinated beverage! This is so addictive👍

Japanese>English

I found another great sake ♫ I want to say, "I found another great sake! It is a fresh, fruity, and quite sweet sake. The subtle petitiveness just before the slight foaming sensation is very enticing to the palate. And the alcohol content is 19%, so you get a big thump right after drinking it! We're all going to have a good time getting drunk today! and opened a bottle of this one, and we all toasted with glasses full of it! Let's go drink it up! I thought to myself, "If I could do this with ......... when I was in my late 20s or early 30s, it would be a happy party...". I've heard that there are a lot of sake in Nagano (not just wine), and I think it has high potential. The peaceful scenery of Kawakami-cho in Minamisaku-gun is one of my precious things. I'd love to drink there again.

lesser cuckoo (Cuculus poliocephalus) Aroma of cooked rice. Light and dry. Slightly ginjo aroma. Mmmm. Purchased at Maruto Otsuka, a liquor store in front of Nakagome Station. The first generation of the family served an apprenticeship at Kurosawa Shuzo, and the name of the brewery, Maruto, is said to have been given to them. It is a local specialty. Picture 3 is Izutsucho's Iekei Ramen with Sake Lees. The aroma of the pork bone and sake is combined, and I think it tastes better than last year. This year, too, the event is a collaboration between a sake brewery and a ramen shop in Saku. This year, a confectionary shop also participated. I am going to Saku again every day.
