I was able to check in to Miyazaki Prefecture without chipping in 🤗. Without any particular purpose in mind, I peeked into the liquor section of a department store, and lo and behold! Chitoku😮! I'm not sure what I was going to do because my refrigerator was pretty full, but I only had two bottles, so I bought them😁. The aroma is the sake😅. The color is also a bit yellowish. I have a bad feeling about this😑. I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm not sure what to make of it. This is the type of sake I hate. I don't like this type. I wonder if I can finish it😓

Lovely sweet Valentine's Day ❤Perhaps because I drank it after Takachiyo, it felt clean and dry, but as I drank more, it became a bit sweet and refreshing 😋. I'm not sure I want to go home if I'm served this at the Dragon Palace🐢👵

Today is my best friend's birthday🎂. I couldn't go out for a cake, so I got a shortcake 🍰 drink 😋. The aroma is similar to the 51 degree sake "drinkable sweets" Okura's DOLCE that I drank before🤔. I'm sure it's very sweet😏. When I took only the supernatant, it was sweet but not as sweet as I expected. The sourness comes more than the sweetness. A yogurt drink 🐮 when mixed together A dreamy sheep🐑 with a touch of sourness 🙄. Not as sweet and easy to drink as I thought 😙.

Valentine's Day #3❤❤❤ Valentine's Day label for Takachiyo😋 Sweet smell In your mouth, it's so sweet🤩! It's like a syrup, tart and sweet! It's only 500ml but I don't know if I can finish it! It's so sweet that it makes me a little nervous 😶! As you continue to drink it, you'll notice a bitter aftertaste. I can't believe it! I can't believe it😁. The liquor store said it had a chocolate 🍫 flavor, and when I drank it with that in mind, I thought it had a hint of chocolate 🤔.

It's not sake though😅. It's a Senkou cider 🍎😘. Supper 😆. It's 6% alcohol, and the aftertaste is apple juice, but it's not nearly as sweet, and it's very sour! It's more like plums than apples 🍎👵 Is this what a cider is like? I thought it would be a little sweeter 🙄. I'm not sure if it would be good with a fatty meal like grilled meat🤔.

I love it 😘❤🔒 The second Valentine's sake is Padlock of Love❤ by Ozeyuki 😉. This is my first Ozeki. The aroma is pear🍐-like. It's sweet but not too sweet, with a nice bitterness that refreshes afterwards. I can't stop sipping it, but I'm afraid it's going to run out, so I'll stop here 😂. Today, I had an omelet with olives and a smoked tongue from the convenience store, which made me want to drink wine 🍷, but it didn't make me feel any different 😉. I think I need to get some peachy nigori too🤣.

A few bottles of heart-shaped liquor in Valentine's Day mode 🥰 The first one is "Chievijin LOVE PINK It's so pink❗! I'm surprised it's not colored, just rice and yeast😲 I took a sip of the supernatant only. Maybe it's the color, but it's kind of strawberry 🍓. It's not as sweet as I thought it would be. When mixed with lees, it looks like a strawberry🍓 smoothie😅. It's not as sweet as I thought it would be, but it has a nice bitterness to it that makes it a good food wine 😋.

It's my first Gacky 😊. Sweet and fruity fragrance🥰 It's thick and sweet but so refreshing. There's also a touch of pizzazz, maybe ramune🤔. In the aftertaste, there's quite a bit of bitterness, which goes well with the barbecue 😋. I also have a medium batch of Aizan x Yamada waiting in the fridge, so I'm excited for that one too 🤗

Young wave 🌊 The word "Waka" and the blue sea wave. I love the design of this label😘 I love this label design! The liquor store's website says it's banana🍌 flavored. I don't feel a banana 😅. On the palate, a gentle sweetness and a piquant gasp. Crisp with just the right amount of acidity 😉.

Purchased at a product exhibition in Miyagi Prefecture 😉. I was a little intimidated by the name "Otokoyama" because I thought it would be a very dry sake😅. I bought it because it was limited to 36 bottles and it came in a stylish paper bag😊. The description said it was a limited edition that you couldn't even buy at the brewery, but you can find it on the online shop😮. When I took it out of the bag, the label was pure white😲. The label is white, but there are engravings on the right and left sides. It's raw storage, but it's been burned once. In the mouth, it's slightly milky or creamy🤔. But the sweetness is quite subdued and tangy, just like the "light and slightly spicy" 😋.

The moment you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness of melon as well as green beans, but in reality, the sweetness is almost gone and the sourness is the main taste. I think it's the tartness that makes me think of melon 🤔. It's refreshing and I never get tired of drinking it. I'm in the middle of writing this post, so I'm checking in on my own 😆.

I made some taro stew today and some sake from Yamagata! I've been curious about this label😙. I didn't realize that the elephant🐘 holding the rice🌾 was called "Inazo" 😆. After swallowing it, my throat feels like drinking melon juice 😋. It seems to be a bit soft but not too sweet. The sourness and bitterness are moderate, and the overall taste is gentle.

First time! It's a brewing forest 😉. Open the bottle! If you see it, be careful. What? It opened easily and without a hitch 🙄. The color was a little yellowish and cloudy? I thought it was going to be fresh and fruity and light 🤔. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it'll be fine. The aftertaste, as you wrote, is definitely lactic acidic 😉. I'm sure you'll love it.

MADE IN FRANCE liquor 🇫🇷 Unique aroma The taste is also peculiar 🤨. I thought it would be more like wine because it's French, but it's not. It's not too sweet, and it's quite sour. I think it would go better with cheese 🧀 than soy sauce 😋. The red and blue on the label look out of place! I'd like to see it with 3D glasses on 👓😁. And what's with the character? 🤭

First Nara Manji A big ⚠ bill to open the bottle! I carefully opened the bottle but nothing happened, it opened easily! 😅 If you don't mix the lees, you'll get a sweetness and then a bitter aftertaste. The foaming sensation is tangy😋. When you mix the lees, the sweetness is suppressed and the bitterness becomes the main ❢ It also has more of a schwartziness 🤔. I love it so much😊. I can't believe how easy it was to open the bottle, it was so strong and fizzy. I can't believe how easy it was to open. Lately, I tend to go to Sushiro on Fridays🍣 I can't stop drinking it, it's getting creamier and creamier🤣. What made the other day's Sai Rai so delicate was the sweet pickled red turnip 😒. It's also a bad match for Naraman ☠️.

😭😭😭 😭1 Opening the bottle⚠ I carefully removed the black cap cover but ended up with a puffy 😭. 😭2 The smell is...kind of like when you open a first aid kit. 😭3 The first few sips are sweet and fruity. But... after that, what is it🤔? It's not alcohol, it's ammonia. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm going to try it. I don't know what was wrong with it. It arrived by cool delivery and was immediately stored in the refrigerator for about two months. I'm sure you'll agree that it's a great product.

The second one of the new year is my first "to"! No, it's Omine junmai😅. No matter how many times I see it, it still looks like a "to" to me 😆. Overall, it's very gentle. It's sweet, but not too sweet. It's sweet but not too sweet, sour but not too sour, bitter but not too bitter. It's also bitter, but not too bitter.

Happy New Year to you too! The first bottle of the new year is a limited edition of 350 bottles of Futari🐰🐰. It is lightly muddled with a little bit of lees. It has almost no aroma. When you taste it, you will feel it envelop your tongue 😋. It's sweet and tangy, but surprisingly dry and bittersweet. I can't stop chibichibiri rather than kui kui 😚

It is a sparkling sake with white mock rose flower yeast. It was given to my parents for their golden wedding anniversary😁. The aroma is like sake. It's so sweet and ❢ And floral🌹 The alcohol content is low at 7 degrees, so it's almost a juice 🥤. If I drank it chilled instead of at room temperature it would have been a bit more swoony and delicious😅. Good thing I got the 300ml size😐.

Merry Christmas 🎄! On the way home, I dropped by the Depa basement to buy some chicken🍗 and hors d'oeuvres, but there were so many people that I gave up 😂. Halloween🎃 followed by Xmas🎅 labeled "Takachiyo" 😍! It's sweet, sour and bitter😋. It's a bit yellowish in color with a hint of tartness. It's a little yellow in color with a hint of tartness. Ripe pears 🍐? A little too sweet to pair with a meal 🙄. Although, I could have gone on and drank half of it 😅. Even though it's only 14 degrees al, my face is still hot 😚
