At home. Sake tasting party with friends after a long time. We brought our own sake. First up was a local sake from Echigo-Yuzawa, a gem bearing the name of the first head of the Shirataki Sake Brewery. The aroma is gorgeous, and in the mouth you can taste the acidity and umami, with a slight lingering alcohol taste. It leaves a slightly bitter or rough feeling in the back of the throat. The Shirotaki Shuzo is known for its Kouzen Nyosui, which has a fuller aroma and taste compared to the Kouzen Nyosui. The bottle was also unusual, with an innovative volume of 630 ml. This is the first brand I've seen and the taste is great. ‼️

Shirotaki sake from Echigo-Yuzawa's "Shirotaki" and "Kamizen Josui" breweries. Minatoya Tousuke is the name of the founder. It has been quite a while. Junmai Daiginjo with 50% polishing. It has a peachy, elegant aroma and a smooth mouthfeel👍.

The second drink at Marukoma was my first "Koshu". It is light and crisp with a pleasant lingering aftertaste. The second sake was "Koshu", which is also from Niigata but has a different flavor from the "Hokusetsu" that we drank for the first sake 🎵.

Japanese>English

This Sake is light and not too sweet. There are herbal flavor notes like licorice and mint. The finish is clean with a light mineral aftertaste. I am told this is a limited, seasonal Sake.

. Sake rice: Niigata-grown Senjyuraku Polishing ratio: 55 Sake degree: +4 Acidity: 1.1 Sake made by Asahi Shuzo, the brewer of Kubota At "Honokuni" in the main station of Toyohashi Fruity, no sourness or bitterness at all. Flavor is clean and quite weak! ☆ 3.5

Last night was a New Year's party with a couple I met last year. We had dinner at a nice restaurant and then went to Kokubuncho. After the fourth bar, I finally had a chance to drink sake. I have known the owner of this sake bar on the outskirts of the city for about 25 years now. The lighting doesn't look like it's the kind of place you'd enjoy sake, but don't worry about that. The selection is quite good, so go for something you've never tried before. First up is Hiryu, the one with Tatsumi Fujinami's red towel. A dry sake with a refreshing yet tasty flavor, just like Mr. Shinzawa! Thank you very much for your hospitality!

My best friend gave me a small bottle to share with my last drink 😆👍. By the way, my best friend's wife recommended it to me. She likes it dry 😄. It's been a long time since I've had a dry sake, but I'm ready to try it💦. The aroma is fruity👍. I'm not a fan of too much dryness, but it was a good experience 🤗.

Koikawa Shuzo Junmai Ginjo Kamejikohi 720ml Rice ： 100% Kame-no-o produced in Yamagata Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 55 Alcohol : 15.3 My wife entered this sake in a CS historical drama program and won it. It is said that this sake brewery is related to the writer Shuhei Fujisawa. This is also some kind of fate. Now, what does it taste like? It is quite classical. My wife said it was just fine. It is best to warm it up a little.

Fukushima sake tasting 🍶1 cup of KURADAIKO The aroma is so floral that it is hard to believe that it is junmai sake. It is dry at +10 degrees Celsius, but it is not only spicy but also has a strong umami flavor and is surprisingly easy to drink 😋. A cup of sake is not enough 😅

Japanese>English

We changed riverbanks and went to our main restaurant. And ikaninjin again at tsukidashi🤭The customer service and the atmosphere inside are good, and it looks like it is crowded with local customers. Above all, the price of alcohol is more reasonable than before. 👍️ The second sake was a clean, dry sake similar in style to Yuzu. This one has more of a lingering umami taste in the mouth. I couldn't help but reach for a brand I'd never heard of before 💦Kitakata sake.

Japanese>English

Next is the warehouse drums 😆. This is also a first for you: ☝️ It has a firm taste and a sour aroma, just like Yamahai 😊. I drank it cold, but enjoyed it heated from the middle 😁. The aroma is much fuller when heated, perfect for long autumn nights 😆.

(Translated from original in Japanese by 🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today we had Sou Yuu for the first time in a long time 😀. I bought it because I was attracted by Soueup's sake future 🥰. The aroma is mild and refreshing 😙The taste on the palate is slightly fruity with beautiful acidity and sweetness 😚 The taste is a bit bitter at the end and disappears 😊I found it to be a refreshing and cohesive sake 🥰.

7 points (Wife 7.5) Rice : Ehime Shizuku Ehime Rice polishing ratio : 60 Sake Degree : ±0 Purchased from: Mizuguchi Shuzo, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture Silent when opened, no gassiness Pineapple-like aroma with a hint of rice flavor. The same mild aroma as the first sip, soft rice flavor and moderate sweetness spreads with a little acidity, and finishes quickly with a hint of bitterness and a little alcohol spiciness. Overall, it is refreshing and easy to drink. It is good for accompanying a meal, but it may be too smooth as a stand-alone sake. The taste may have changed since the one I bought from a brewery in Ehime this time last year came out of the fridge. It went well with spicy grilled minos and Umaibo shrimp mayonnaise flavor.

20230902 The last one is Junmai Ginjo (*^^*). This series is just delicious! It has a rich flavor that conveys the goodness of the water as well 🍶. Thank you very much for your kindness.

I don't want to say too much, but it is cosy and very tasty. It is also delicious on its own, but the rice flavor and ginjo aroma are as good as the food. Thick. What I don't want to say too much about it is that it's really cheap... I don't want it to become popular and expensive lol. Nakano Sake Brewery, can you do better there 😌.

Japanese>English

Easy to drink. Dry and fruity Maybe it's more spicy than fruity. Well, it's a delicious sake.

It is said that the name "Hakkouda" comes from a Japanese poem, "Koma no sato (more horses than people)," which means "a clear spring is springing up in the village of Koma. I thought, "Isn't Hakkouda in Aomori City? But it seems that the western edge of Shichinohe Town, where the warehouse is located, is connected to Hakkouda. When I opened the bottle, I thought it was an adult lemonade. I thought it was adult lemonade, but the flavor was not sour. The spiciness was followed by bitterness, and then the sweetness came slowly. As the name suggests, there was a slight ooze, and the legginess was almost invisible.

Japanese>English

A little sweet at first, then bitter, firm.

Japanese>English

The 6th go-around house is Saba in Komasen from Shichinohe town in Aomori: 🐟️ I guess the only people who would recognize Sakuta or Shichiriki no Kura would be locals or Aomori otaku🤓 lol. President Morita was here. The first aroma is slightly sweet. When you take a sip, it has a light sweetness and a moderate umami flavor, and it finishes with a refreshing crispness. It was the perfect sake for the pickled sesame mackerel that came with the entrée. It was delicious 🍶🐟️ They currently make 500 koku (they have 3,000 koku in their facilities) with 5 employees and 5 part-timers. When I told the president that I am a fan of Sakuta and Shichiriki, he laughed and said, "It was worth coming here today.
