2nd one raining According to the sake brewer, they use well water with high hardness from the subsoil of Mount Tanzawa Oyama (Mt. Amezuri) for the brewing water. I like their approach and regional characteristics. It has a light grapefruit flavor, a little tangy on the tip of the tongue, and a clean but lingering taste.

To enjoy the long autumn nights I finally got a bottle of Akabu, which I had been curious about after reading your post. I was attracted by the limited offer of one bottle per person, so I chose the "Amber"! I was going to enjoy it on a long autumn night, but I drank it all up in no time, so I forgot to post it. It was light and fruity! I'll try the orthodox one next time 🍶✨.

A gift from a customer of my parents' house When I went back to my parents' house, my father, who usually drinks potato shochu, said, "I got a bottle of sake, let's drink it. How nice! It has a rich but good aftertaste with the acidity of Yamahai and goes well with a meal! Delicious! There was another bottle, so I took that home with me too 🍶🍶✨.

Rainfall from climbing Mt. I went to Mt. Daisen, where the Aburi Shrine is located. Mount Daisen is also called "Mount Aburi" (meaning "rainfall mountain"), which means it rains and is covered with fog even though it is sunny. After climbing Mt. Daisen, we stopped by the Yoshikawa Sake Brewery to get a bottle of "Amefall! It is delicious with a sour fruity taste, as it is brewed with a yeast that produces malic acid! It goes well with tiredness! I think I'm going to become addicted to the mountain climbing series 🍶✨.

sake for moon viewing This is so delicious! This was recommended to me by the oldest sake brewery in Gunma Prefecture, Makino Shuzo! It's so delicious! It is brewed with Iwate's Ginginga sake rice in a "sake yeast" style, and has a bit more amino acidity, so it has a bit of sourness to it. It has a gentle yet powerful flavor, with a juicy soft sweetness and acidity like white grapes and apples...really delicious! The day the bottle was opened was two days before "Fifteen Nights" and the moon was almost full. Iwate's Ginga is associated with Kenji Miyazawa. It's great to drink while imagining a galactic railroad 🍶✨✨.

At Makino Sake Brewery We stopped by on our way to Kusatsu Onsen and talked with the store's brother about many things. He told us that Takasaki City in Gunma Prefecture, where the brewery is located, has long been a flourishing wheat producer and has many pasta shops. A quick Google search shows that Takasaki is the number one pasta town in Japan! Gunma prefecture has the 1st largest number of Italian restaurants per capita! Oh I didn't know that 🍝. I was recommended the "SAKE DI PASTA" series of pasta drinks, of which there are three types, and I chose the "Light! which goes well with oil-based pasta such as peperoncino. It is fruity, juicy, and light. It is also delicious on its own without pasta 🍶✨. I also learned about the Maccho series I posted earlier (which for some reason is not available at the brewery), and bought another bottle of a different sake made from a different type of sake. Looking forward ✨

At Anzai Shoten in Kusatsu Onsen Macho series with a big impact! Low-pasteurized is high-protein, in other words, macho! It's sharp! The rice is a fusion of Omachi O O Aizan, which gives the image of Oka Macho! A playful and stylish presentation ✨ The taste is fruity and completely belies the expectations of the label! Mecha Macho 💪.

Now try the red label! The red label is more fruity and delicious than the green! The mild, refreshing sweetness on the tongue is delicious 🍶✨. But I remember it was even more fruity than the one I remember from the pub where I drank it before. Maybe the taste was boosted by the food and the fun atmosphere with friends 😁.

Delicious local alcoholic beverages at the izakaya I bought this sake because it was sold at a local supermarket! There was a green label junmai sake and a red label junmai ginjo, but I didn't know which one I had at the izakaya, so I bought this one for now. Well, here it is! It was a little fruity, with a hint of rice sweetness. It is easy to drink, with a slight alu-ness that is refreshing! It's delicious with fries 🍶✨. But the one I had before was more fruity, so it might be the red label, I'll buy the red label next time.

Hot summer is a shoo-in. The platinum-colored label is stylish, reminding one of the Olympic torch! The slightly smaller capacity is also stylish! I saw this at Sake-no-Wa and was curious about it. When I drank it, I found it to be moderately carbonated and sweet like muscat! I drank the first glass in a wine glass, but I can enjoy this sweetness better in a vessel like an inokuchi or shot glass! Stylish and delicious 🍶✨

Souvenirs of your trip to Hokkaido I went to "Sanzen Sakura Sake Brewery", a sake brewery that moved from Gifu to Higashikawa in Hokkaido! Higashikawa-cho has water and rice, but no sake, so the town was lured with a public-private partnership system! A month after our trip in June, we finally opened a bottle of this chilled sake! Fruity! This is probably the best sake I've ever had! The fruity flavor melts on the tongue and then recedes quickly without any lingering aftertaste. I love it 🍶✨ We took a ferry and car trip, so we didn't take a plane, but Higashikawa is a nice place with Asahikawa Airport nearby, Biei and Furano. The lavender photo is Furano, same color as the label💜.

Rewards after a medical checkup, Part 1 Best only for lunch! Kitchen 078 is a restaurant 🐙 that serves craft beer and sake, with the octopus from Akashi, Hyogo Prefecture as a guess. After the first craft beer, this one with a long name! Kuroemon XVI! Yum 🍶✨

It's hot! It's summer! I was traumatized by the image of the sake I drank before, thinking that summer sake feels thin and not enough, but this is delicious! The sweetness of the rice, the moderate acidity, and the cool and sexy label make it perfect for summer nights 🍶✨.

Seasonal Play Sake, Kingfishers Refreshing acidity makes it easy to drink like a dry white wine! Good chilled! With this, we have conquered 4/5 of Kuromatsusenjo's Seasonal Play Sake series! The swallows I have yet to try are from spring to early summer, so I'll be back next year. Interesting that they are the same brand but have completely different flavors 🍶✨.
