Northwest Shuzo Brewery Sairai Hanasumi Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake Gasping and my favorite sound when opening the bottle: ☺️ Lightly cloudy. Fresh, apple-like aroma with a hint of sourness. It is light at the beginning. After a pause, the sweetness and umami spread. Long aftertaste. The bitterness is felt later. The mouth is full of saliva 😆.

Dinner on the last day of a 3-day weekend 🍶. Nishida Shuzo Tazake Kojo-zake Gentle, sour, pineapple-like aroma 🍍. The first taste is full of sweetness and umami. The umami spreads rapidly. The bitter taste is subtly felt when it spreads all over the palate. The label with 🫰🏻HappyValentine🍫´- is also cute🥰. Delicious 🥰.

Ikusakaya - Shinshu Secret Hanpukai Ohsawa Wawa Even though the brewery suffered a fire, they were able to participate in the hanpukai thanks to everyone's hard work and cooperation. I'm glad to hear that. It has a refreshing pear-like aroma. It is sweet and full of flavor. Easy to drink without feeling 16%. I think it is perfect for this time of year.

Kuroryu Hiiraju Junmai Daiginjo One of the few raw sake in the Kuroryu lineup. The bottle is beautiful and special. Elegant, pear-like aroma. Light and refreshing. The first thing that jumps out at you is the umami. It is both sweet and spicy. The umami is still the star of the show even after many sips. It is full of rice flavor. The aftertaste is also clear, and it is a masterpiece that is repeatedly said to be delicious.

Evening drink Benten Musume Tank Pressed Junmai Torihime Arahashiri Nama-Nagara Sake A limited edition sake specially brewed by Jizakaya Josan for the brewer! The label on the back recommends heating the sake 👀✨. First we'll start with a cold one. Aroma is citrusy with a hint of sourness typical of a sake with sake tail. Sake degree +16 Not as spicy as I thought it would be. The alcohol content does not seem high and it is light and easy to drink. It is well-balanced with a firm hit of bitterness afterwards 🥰. To be heated. Actually, I have never tried heating sake before. The aroma of the finished heated sake. The aroma of the finished heated sake is completely different from that of lukewarm sake, which has a fuller, more rice-like aroma. When you drink it, it's completely different from cold sake. It's honestly dry, but it has a gentle drinking feel. ☺️ It is a sake that can be drunk in summer with a refreshing taste.

Aburacho Sake Brewery Kaze no Mori Challenge Edition 2024 Midori I love the sound of the bottle popping when you open it 🤤. Fresh aroma, like rumne 😊. It's full of sweetness and flavor, and while it's gassy, it's light because it's 13%. It's so easy to drink, it'll be empty in no time 😆. It's that easy to drink and delicious 🥰.

Of course, it has sweetness. Polishing ratio 40%. Clear and elegant. The bitterness can be felt slowly afterwards. Well-balanced and delicious. Oh, they also sell hi-ire (fire-brewed). Maybe I'll go buy some 🥰.

Yuki's Beauty THEE ACE OF STARS The aroma is still gorgeous, melon-like and full of sweetness 🍈. How comfortable is it to drink? More sweetness? Has the pungency calmed down? I feel a change as if the pungency has been replaced by umami. A taste that lingers. A slight aftertaste. I think that being able to feel this change is the joy of drinking sake at home and the depth of sake. I really can't stop drinking it.

Today's dinner was 🍶. The sake was custom brewed by Akita Sake Brewery of Yuki no Bijin by Jizakeya Sake Sake. THEE ACE OF STARS Gorgeous and elegant melon-like aroma. Unlike what I imagined from the aroma, it feels spicier than the acidity level of -1. The umami spreads slowly. The bitterness is also felt, but the aftertaste is clean and refreshing. I wondered if the temperature could be changed. I warmed it up to lukewarm. The gentle aroma makes you imagine the sweetness that is typical of warmed sake. ☺️ Gentle sweetness. I want to drink it when it is still cold. Both of these sake can be enjoyed in their own way!

It's July now. I was wondering how much sake I drank in the first half of the year... 14 bottles of sake, 101 bottles of yogobottles 😆. I drank a lot and they were all delicious 🥰. I can't stop for a while lol Today's dinner 🍶. It was over 30 degrees Celsius, but we ate stewed ramen lol Sekiya Brewery Houraisen Junmai Daiginjo Sora The aroma is like white peaches and gives off a voluptuous feeling. It has a sweet and umami taste. The taste spreads slowly. The bitterness and astringency you feel afterwards is a good accent. ☺️ It is a taste that you will never get tired of.

Today's dinner 🍶. Continuing from yesterday Hanamaru Junmai Ginjo Sake Mirai Nama The aroma is still gorgeous and elegant, like muscat 🍇. Sweet and tasty and voluptuous, but more rounded and calm than yesterday's. The taste is gently expanding. It makes you want to enjoy the aftertaste. The lingering taste is also finished off by a hint of bitterness. I'll drink it again even though we've run out of Hana Yuu in our house.

Today's dinner was 🍶. While having BBQ Hanamaru Junmai Ginjo Sake Mirai Nama Why with BBQ...? Because I felt that Hanamup has a mellow flavor that can't be beat (lol). Gorgeous aroma like muscat 🍇. Voluptuous, elegant, sweet and delicious taste spreads at once 🥰. I want to drink it again no matter how many times I taste it 🥰. The bitterness that comes slowly. It is a sake that makes you want to drink the next one even though it is voluptuous to the end 🥰.

Sweetness with a moderate acidity. The flavor spreads slowly. The taste is a little astringent, which can be felt while enjoying the flavor. It is fresh and tasty even though it is only once heated 🥰.
