[What? Christmas? Sake, right? It's Christmas night in the world, but in our house it's Yose-nabe and Sake 😂. We toasted with the brand we bought the most this year, Chokyu's new sake ❗ It is fresh and moderately sweet, but not too fruity and sharp. It is quite competent as a food sake, and nabe is a perfect match 🥰. Chokyu has quite different characteristics depending on the label, so it's exciting not to know until you try it (and they are all delicious) 😁. I put the gift 🎁 on my daughter's pillow in the middle of the night and mission accomplished: ✌️

The more expensive sake is available at Furusato Tax Payment. I got this one 2 years ago and it was delicious 🥰. I'm not talking about Aomori, but Nishiwaki City, Hyogo Prefecture 😁] I received a bottle of Toyobai 2 years ago, and it was delicious ὰ. It has a fruity aroma and a bit of sweetness at the moment of drinking, but it's clean and dry, and the umami combined with some maturity is delicious 😋. Drank it with my father, my brother's wife and I, so it ran out quickly... 😄

Do you want to build a snowman? I was going to pass on the snowman this year, but then I saw him at the liquor store and bought him... 😁. It smells like pear🍐 and the effervescence is quite strong. The sweetness is only faintly perceptible, and the finish is much drier than the Snow Woman I posted one post ago. It is easy to pair with Japanese food flavored with soy sauce or salt, and its low alcohol content makes it a good sparkling nigori sake for a meal 😋. Sentori itself is not really my favorite brand, but I just buy Snowball 😄.

[Another year, another beautiful snow woman 😍]. I was thinking of buying a different active nigori this year, but I saw the beautiful Yuki-Onna-san at the liquor store, so I bought one this year too ❄ww! The aroma is sweet like lychee. It has a distinct fizzy and fruity sweetness, like an adult Muscat Calpis soda 😊. Tastes exactly the same as it was supposed to 🥰. It has a voluptuous taste, so it goes better with strong flavors 😋. Last year I suggested curry or pizza, but probably crab cream croquettes would be the best match 🦀🦀🦀.

[This could be the #1 in 2023! 😍😍] This is an unfiltered unpasteurized sake from Noukuchi, shipped after about 3 years from bottling. I wouldn't buy it even if it was in the liquor store because it usually costs 5,500 yen, but if you pay tax in Furusato, it's a different story: ✌️ I'm really happy to be able to get such a brand that I usually don't buy through Furusato tax payment 😄. It has a melon-like aroma and a medium-volume sweet flavor that is delicious on its own, but most notably, it has an aged taste like rum raisins in the aftertaste 🥰. I'm a big fan of sake with a beautifully matured taste, so this is a bottle that I really like right on 😆😆😆😆. This is shockingly too good ❗❗❗❗ I might have decided the No.1 sake I drank in 2023 🤣🤣

The first active nigori❄ of the season. I wanted to buy this label last year, but the timing wasn't right and I didn't go through with it😄. The aroma is like white bean flour, and of course it has a strong carbonation 🫧. The sweetness is quite moderate, with a dry and clean aftertaste that is easy to pair with any meal 😊. Surprisingly good with sushi🍣😋.

The warmth of human skin is justified. I've decided to buy all the labels I find that I've never had before. This time it was hiya oroshi 😁. I drank it cold and found it to be less distinctive than the Chokyu I've had in the past, and a little dryer than the other sake I've had, but still a good sake in general. Nakano BC's website recommends room temperature to lukewarm heating, so I lightly heated it up and it was so delicious that it completely changed my impression 😍. The umami flavor was very pronounced, and I felt as if its potential had blossomed at once 🤣. A bottle that shows the depth of Chokyu ❗

[Wadayaro million ww😆]. The last fresh Romain I bought was also a limited edition sake from Kagaya 😁. I remember it was really good so I bought this one too ✌️ When opened, it has a minty🌿 aroma and a fizzy taste. As the day goes by, the juiciness increases and the juicy sweetness and melon🍈 notes become stronger. The aftertaste leaves a slight tingling sensation and is still delicious😍. This is the kind of wine that can be paired with hearty meats 😋.

[Fruity rice wine. As a rice wine lover, I want to buy all the labels I've never had 😆. So I bought a Jungin of Akita Sake Komachi! The top aroma is much the same as the other labels, like apple🍏 or grape🍇. Lately, the regular label Tokujun has been a bit on the dry side, but the Sakekomachi is on the sweeter, fruity side. The aftertaste is citrusy🍋 and clean with a little more acidity. It is an easy-drinking type with a pleasant impression 🥰. I think it is easy to match with both Japanese and Western food😋.

Freshness Otter First purchase of the raw version of Otter Festival Sanwari Kubun, which is only released twice a year: ✌️ From the moment the bottle is opened, a fruity aroma like pears spreads out in a whiff. This aroma alone is a definite winner👍. After the slight fizziness that is typical of nama-shu, a gentle bitterness and sweetness spreads in the mouth, and it's absolutely delicious 🥰. It has a sharp, smooth aftertaste that is not too heavy, so it's dangerous to gobble it up 😄. It's a bit expensive, so it's no surprise that it's delicious, but it's more than satisfying beyond its price!

[Reading: Kanagaso! Aged sake from Noukuchi is available at Furusato Tax Payment❗ The color is a little dark ivory, as is typical of aged sake, and the aroma is of grain, which is also typical of aged sake. It has a nutty 🥜 flavor and smooth mouthfeel, not at all trendy and modern, but mildly delicious 🥰. The herbaceousness of the hints and the strong astringent bitterness of the aftertaste are also nice and let you know how deep the sake is: ✌️ It is a 2018 vintage, but it is not overripe for a 5 year old sake, a high level bottle that should be called "quintessential Farmouth" 😋.

I knew Yamane Keishiki would be like this😄]. Last year I could buy Zenkichi's Hiyayogoshi, but this year I could buy Nakanori's: ✌️ The aroma was not so much when it was just out of the fridge, but as the temperature range rose a bit, it had a banana-like top note. The sweetness on the attack is strong and impactful, but after the sweetness recedes early, the acidity is stronger. The finish is smooth with little cloying taste. I have had Yamae-Nishiki with Shinshu Kamerei and Gokotsuru, and they all had similar impressions 😁.

[Mikotsuru, and Beyond] It has been a long time since I uploaded this page after a business trip overseas. I had never drank Gokotsuru Hiyoroshi before. It is rather fresh for a hiyaoroshi, with almost no sense of maturity. It is sweet and sour in its own way, but it has a full-bodied umami flavor on top, so it is not the light sweet and sourness that I dislike. If I had to say something, I'd say the aftertaste could be a little more impactful, but it's easy to drink and that's all that matters 😁. It's good with fatty grilled fish 😋.

[Name like a comic duo 🤭] I've always been curious about Abe but couldn't come across it in my area of activity, but I found it in the basement of Marunouchi Building😆. It has a gorgeous top note like grapes 🍇, a slightly stronger effervescence, a clean sweetness and mineral flavor, and a gentle bitterness in the aftertaste one after the other, kind of like Nabeshima 😄. It is very delicious, as it is a brand with a high reputation! It makes me definitely want to buy the different labels👍 I'd love to have a bottle to pair with shao mai, Japanese hamburger steak, or other soy sauce flavored meats 😍.

It may be the most beautiful sake name I know. Rare sake from Shimotsuma that I got from my hometown 😊. The name was apparently chosen from a public contest to evoke the image of a purple loosestrife. Since there is no sake brewing company in Shimotsuma City, Raifuku Sake Brewery in neighboring Chikusei City produces it. Actually, I had never had Raifuku before, but it seems somewhat similar to Morishima, Gokeijo, and Watarabune, which are also made in Ibaraki 😄. It is an easy-drinking, delicious sake with a refreshing sweetness and a gentle spiciness in the aftertaste that makes the drink go down a treat 😋.

The one I've been waiting for 😘. When I traveled to Noto Peninsula last year, a seller of Suzu ware said that Sogen's hiyaoroshi is the best sake in Japan, so I definitely wanted to buy some this year: ✌️ The moment you take a sip, you feel the sweetness, but the umami that spreads afterwards is accompanied by a unique richness and bitterness, somewhat like cocoa 🍫. The aftertaste has a strong alcohol feeling and a stimulation that makes your tongue tingle, which may not be to everyone's taste buds, but I like it a lot because of its robust taste 😋. I heard that they also have hiyaoroshi with different sake rice, so I would definitely buy it next time when I find it👍.

[First brand I've been able to drink in about 10 years👍] I got a bottle of Kiri-Tsukuba's light nigori nama-zake (unpasteurized sake) from a hometown tax payment. It is a popular brand that is consumed almost exclusively locally, but it appears that there was some new sake left from last year that will be shipped in December 2022. ✌️ Although it has been over a year, it has not lost much of its freshness with a slight effervescence, and on the other hand, it has a moderate calmness that is quite nice 😋. It has a sweetness, but the refreshing alcohol taste and crispness are the result of the aluzochu liqueur. Like last month's Onra, it's nice to be able to get a brand that is hard to find through hometown tax payment 😆.

[Where does love come from? Answer: Banshu 😁. It's been a long time since I've had Aisan sake. Gentle green apple aroma. Not so sweet, with a slight chilliness and berry🍓 type acidity. I can't explain it well, but I regret that I felt a little chemical aftertaste like artificial sweetener 🤔. The aroma was also a bit alcohol-like. I am wondering what is the gravity system on the back label. Does it mean "drop-capture? 😄

The first hiyaoroshi of the season. Eiko-Fuji for the first time in a long time. First purchase of the label I had been thinking about buying every year but hadn't. ✌️ The aroma is sweet like mango 🥭. The sweetness spreads for a moment, but it is less pronounced than the aroma suggests, followed by a firm, well-defined umami spiciness that is very good. I like it better after it has been left in the fridge for a little while than freshly out of the fridge 😆. I think it is a good harmony between the calm and matured taste that I like and the juiciness of Eiko-Fuji-like taste 😋.

[Four Hundred] I have almost no connection to basketball, but I'm in the middle of the Slam Dunk generation, so I watched TV every day with a hot heart 🏀. I'm a member of the Slam Dunk generation, so I've been watching TV every day with a hot heart 🏀. The top aroma is just so fruity 🍐! It has a slightly effervescent feel, with a fluffy, understated sweetness followed by a clear and quite sharp bitterness. Not sour, but the aftertaste is grapefruit-like😊. It's drinkable and delicious 😋. But of course today's games against Cape Verde and Finland were both very hot, but I was most moved by the real Mitsui Kotobuki like Shin Hiejima in the Venezuela game: ⛹‍♂🥹. I think my favorite scene in Slam Dunk is the three by Megane-kun in the Ryonan game! 😁
