Summer Nigorinpik 87 I recently opened a bottle of this new sake from Koueikiku, which I was very curious about after reading many comments on Sake no Wawa😇. As you commented, I chilled it properly and quietly turned the plastic part around the stopper gently, but at that moment the stopper blew out and I was surprised 🤣‼️ I was even more surprised when the cork blew out and the top clear liquid was safely removed. ‼️🤣 The top nose was quite mature, but in the mouth it was delicious with a strong piquancy and quiet fruity sensation. The fresh rice flavor was also very tasty 😇. The comparison of the top clear and the mixed one at room temperature was very impressive with the clear taste of the top clear 😇

Good evening, Yasube, 🌛I knew the cork would fly 💨I liked the acidity and sweetness too much for a summer sake 🤤I'm glad that Kouri Kiku is easy to find at Kadoya ✨.

Summer Nigorinpik 86 Continuing from yesterday, we had summer nigori, Hatada ⭐️ squash against the Ramune label 😀. Actually, this sake is from a brewery we visited last year on a tour organized by Kyukura on the day of the Shiga brewery opening, but we couldn't bring it home due to the limited number of bottles 😀. The sake is made by second fermentation in the bottle from re-fermented mash that is squeezed in a wooden vat🤣. It tasted like... an adult banana squash 😇. Yesterday's Ramune Label was a transparent sake, but this one was a fruity squash with a sweet and sour banana taste... delicious 😇.

Summer Nigorinpik 85 Finally, we were able to have our first summer sake nigori at the Summer Nigorinpik. It's a summer nigori with a ramune label, made by this season's key sake maker, Murasakyuu 😀. I chilled it perfectly and opened the bottle slowly 😀. I thought the bottle was safely opened... but a few seconds later, there was a thud and then a blowout from the automatic stirring 🤣. Well, I could have guessed that from the amount of oli that had accumulated at the bottom of this bottle. I let my guard down😅. The blowout was minimal and saved my life, but you can never be too careful😅. The taste was a bit different from the usual Purple Space's, but the light sweetness and beautiful carbonation reminded me of a soda Ramune 😇. In case you missed it, we went out for lunch today to celebrate with Kaorin's dad who lives upstairs with a gift and sushi 🤣❓❓ As I'm sure you all know, Kaorin got Father's Day wrong for a week😅. I was buying gifts as Kaorin made me 🤣.

Good evening, Nao888 😀. That time lag is unfair 🤣. As soon as I opened the bottle safely and was about to pour it into a glass 😅. It was a bit different from your usual purple space, it felt like a summer ramune 🤣.

Summer Nigorinpik 84 The first bottle of Tasake's light nigori that we opened earlier was laid down to be aged for a while, but the bottle of Mutsu Hachisen that we opened today was obtained at the same time as Tasake's and ended up being aged for a while as well as Tasake's 😀 As usual, we tasted them including the supernatant that we put back at room temperature. As usual, I tasted the sake mixed with the supernatant that had been brought to room temperature, and I was able to taste the fruity aroma that reminded me of white peaches, and the peach flavor that seemed to be pulled along with it 😇. I don't know if this was due to the petit aging process or the ability of Mutsu Hachisen's orikarami, but it was very tasty😇.

Winter Nigorinpik 83 Today's sake is also from the Winter Nigorinpik, a light nigori sake from Tasake. Actually, this sake has been aged at freezing point in our sake cellar for 6 months since I heard in a post by Sake-no-Wawa that new sake is a little bit cloudy 🤣. I don't know what it tasted like at first, but the taste I got today after a little aging was very refreshing and the fruity acidity was very pronounced. I don't know what it would have tasted like if I drank it right away, but after the petit-aging process, the acidic fruitiness was present and made it a very tasty sake😇.

Hello, Matsuchiyo-san 😀 I usually don't get to the point where I can age it on my own, but this is the first time I've aged it while resisting the urge to drink it 🤣. But if you want to age it consciously, you have to buy two bottles to know 🤣.

Summer Nigorinpic 81 The Nama-shu Dai-open series has ended with Jigin-sama's Jungin Omachi Nama-shu, and today we are resuming the Nigorinpik 😀 We say summer, but there are many left over from the winter and spring Nigorinpiks 🤣. Currently we have 14 bottles of nigori sake in stock, but we are still planning to collect summer nigori sake little by little, so I think we will be able to record our 100th bottle of nigori sake this season when the summer nigorinpic is over ❓🤣. So the 80th bottle of nigori this season is my favorite Nagano sake, Gokotsuru's active nigori nama sake😇. It has been sitting in our cellar since winter, but it is delicious and has a nice, robust, active flavor 😇. The aroma and taste are very gorgeous among nigori sake 😀. All of them were delicious, including the supernatant that was brought to room temperature and the one that was mixed 😇.

The last in our series of "Nama-Shu" (aka "raw sake") to be released for drinking while it's still tasty is Jikin's Jungin Omachi Nama-Shu 😇! I looked at the list of sake that I can buy with my points at the liquor store I frequent and found a four-pack of Jikin Toku Jun Hi-ire and a bottle of this Jikin Jungin Omachi Nama Sake...now which one should I buy 🤣. I decided to go for the bottle I usually don't buy because I had a bottle of Toku Junsei that I had just opened in my cellar and I thought this might be my last chance to get a bottle of this season's Jijikin Nama Sake 🤣. It was great to compare the Toku Junsei and Jungin Omachi Nama for the first time 😇. Both are wonderfully balanced, just like Jikin-sama 😇. However, when compared to the Jungin Omachi, I felt that the Jungin Omachi was more balanced and all the flavors were more pronounced 😀. Kaorin preferred the Jungin Yumachi, which had a more balanced and gorgeous flavor, while I preferred the Toku Junsei, which had a more delicate and balanced flavor 🤣. Well, I'll just say they're both delicious😅.

Today I walked to the Expo Park again with a bottle of sake for my walking tour😇. Today I brought a Junmai Daiginjo Nama Watabune from Nanabonjari, which I received from the Kadoya Sake Shop's hanpukai a long time ago 😀. I could smell the ginjo aroma, but it was a more robust and sturdy sake 😇. I had an image of Shichibonspear as a light and dry sake, but thanks to the addition of the junmai daiginjo, it had a gorgeous fruity aroma until the middle of drinking, and from there it quickly became sharp and strong 😀 It is a dry sake, but it has the strength of a bento. Although it is a dry sake, it went well with my bento boxed meal and was delicious 😀.

Today we opened a bottle of 2024 Harusion, a pre-sake from Koei Kiku in Saga, aged at ice temperature in-house by Kadoya Sake Shop, which I often go to 😀. The aroma is as usual, a beautiful fruity top note 😀. The mouthfeel has a beautiful fruity sweetness, followed by an explosion of acidity 😇. Is this the power of ice aging ❓🤣. I don't think it is possible to change the taste this much by keeping it at home in ice temperature 😀. It was a really delicious aged sake with a very impressive acidity, oriented towards summer sake😇.

I've already opened all of the Nagano sake that has been stored for a long time, so now I'm going to open the pre-brewed sake that has been stored for a long time without being opened 🤣. First up is Jikin's Special Junmai Nama 😀. Jikin has a good balance, but this special junmai nama is the one that sticks out to me the most😇. Today's sake comparison is Shinshu Kamerei and Tsukiyoshino, both of which were opened earlier, but since they are all delicious sake, we chose Japanese food such as sushi, bamboo shoots and eel liver so that the food would not interfere with the sake 🤣. All the sakes are definitely delicious 😀. We were able to compare the best of the three sakes: the well-balanced Jikkimasama, which I never get tired of drinking, the 🐢sama, which has great flavor and sharpness, and the Tsukiyoshino, which matches its gorgeousness and gentleness 😇.

Another unfiltered raw sake from Nagano Prefecture 😀. This is also the first sake that I bought at Wakabayashi Brewery on my way back to Ueda City from the Kitamukai Kannon Temple, which I visited first thing in the morning when I went on a tour of Ueda breweries in March. The aroma is as gorgeous as the name "Sakura" and the taste opens up in your mouth. I failed in the timing of drinking this 🤣. I should have brought it to a spring hanami 🌸😅. It's really rare to find a sake that is so gorgeous and fruity, yet not clingy at all 🌸.

Following yesterday's Nagano Sake Festival, we will be having Kitaan Okuni Sake again 😀! This is another challenge sake from Kitaan Okuni, a raw sake made with wine yeast😇. We went walking to the Expo Park as we usually do on holidays when we don't have any plans, but today we decided not to have a Japanese style lunch as it would probably be too acidic due to the wine yeast, but to have Western or Chinese side dishes that would be more acidic 😀. As expected, the sake was white wine-like, but with more sweetness and acidity, and it went well with the sour side dishes and the fruit cakes we bought on the way to the park for dessert 😇

I was able to get it again this year 😀. This sake is brewed by Kitayasu Okuni in Nagano in collaboration with Hata Sake Brewery, which I visit every week, and I was able to have it again this year 😀. This sake is brewed at the beginning of the year and as soon as it is ready, it is locked up in a room made of snow and aged in the snow for a long time until the end of April 😀 The base is fruity, sweet, and delicious. The base is fruity, sweet, and delicious, and because it was aged in the snow for months, the freshness and punch of the freshly brewed sake has been slowly aged at a low temperature, resulting in a rounded, beautifully finished sake that was sweet, fruity, and fresh, but perhaps had a bit of a roughness to it. This is the taste of aging with a lot of time and effort 😀. I'm glad I could drink it again this year 😇

I bought this sake when I visited Wada Ryu during my Ueda brewery tour the other day 😀. The timing of the brewery's preparation did not coincide with my visit, so the fridge was empty, including the sake I was looking for, Wadaryu Tomisui🤣. The president of the brewery was very apologetic when I told him that I had come from Osaka, and he brought me this junmai sake, saying that it was the only one they had in the brewery at the moment 😀 The aroma was junmai, and the taste was very typical of junmai sake. The aroma is very Junmai-like, simple and reminds me of freshly cooked rice 😀 The taste is also very robust. The taste was also very rich, with a hint of sweetness from the rice as the main taste 😀. It was quite different from our family's usual choice, but sometimes this kind of sake is also instructive 🙆. The president of the brewery was a real talker and explained a lot about Ueda to the two of us, including the delicious food, stores, and movie locations in Ueda, and thanks to him, we were able to get some delicious soba noodles and movie locations afterwards😇. The office staff who went out of her way to serve us tea on the way to the restaurant laughed and said that our company president really likes to talk 😀. The warehouse made a really good impression😇

Good morning, Yasbay 😃. Simple looking junmai sake! I think I would take you if I see you at the liquor store 🤗It's good to be able to drink sake 🍶 that is not usually chosen from such encounters 😙.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃 Yes, it looks simple standing up, but maybe that's what you guys like 😀. However, it seems that our family's taste buds are slowly growing into adults and we enjoyed it 😇.

Hi Nao888 😀 I was hoping to get a chance like this to get some sake from Ueda's sake brewery since there are not many stores in Kansai that sell it 🤣. I'll keep my fingers crossed for some Nagano sake hanpukai sake from a liquor store in Ueda 😀.

Yesterday was a sudden sushinomi with my son, but today the Shinshu sake festival resumes again 😀. Today's sake to be opened is a special junmai sake from Kawanakajima Genmai 😀. This was another delicious sake😇 Yamasan-san and Shinshu Kamerei-san... they are in the same family of deliciousness 😀. It was fruity, but very beautiful and clear... and the umami from it made it a delicious sake with a refreshing finish 😀. It's a Nagano sake, after all 😇

Good evening, Yasubeyesan 🦉. Today we will start another stable drinking comparison 😊👍👍and a nice view of Shinshu sake😻I've only had a very refreshing Genshu Mai at home, so I'd like to try something like this 😊.

Good morning, Pon-chan 😀 I felt a little sorry for Shihu-san placed next to Nagano sake 🤣. This Nagano sake had very similar characteristics😇 It was hard to decide between the two and I felt again the power of Nagano sake😇.

Thank you, nomihei 🙇. I hope you don't mind 😇 I'm now totally addicted to Nagano sake, and my trip to Ueda made me love it even more, so I'm jealous of those who live in Nagano 😀. I'm looking forward to Nagano sake hanpukai until November 😇

Good morning, Yasubeyesan 🌞It's amazing that Gensanmai-san is the one who resumed the clear sake ✨️ Nagano sake, I was thinking of pedaling my bicycle for 2 hours round trip to bring Yamazan-san to you 🚲️ I'm afraid my knees are going to break💦.

Today I had a sasinomy with my son who lives with his ex-wife whom he has been separated from for a long time😇. I asked him what he wanted to eat and he said he wanted fish dishes, so I took him to a restaurant called Araki, which is a fish restaurant in Umeda that I know from Kochi 😀. We met for the first time in a year and what surprised me the most was that my son can now drink Sake 😇. We had a great time with my son, who I never thought he would be able to drink sake 😀. The sake to go with the Kochi fish dishes were Drunken Whale, Tsukasa Botan, Shimanto River, and so on... 😇 I had an image of Kochi's sake as being dry and heavy, but when paired with Kochi's fish dishes, it transformed into a beautiful sake full of a refreshing feeling 😀. We both enjoyed the delicious sake to the fullest 😇. I can only thank Kaorin for sending me off so pleasantly for a drink with my son😇.

Yasbaye 👍💕It was a wonderful time for you and your son to share a drink together ❤️ must be a true bliss for a male parent ‼️🥰and sake👍I'm looking forward to the future 😆Kaorin's thoughtfulness made the sake even more delicious ‼️ cool 💓

The second sake from Nagano is Yamazan's Kinmon-nishiki 😀. There was no Yamazan distributor in Kansai until the beginning of this year, so I couldn't get it at all 😅. Finally, a distributor was opened in Kyoto and northern Osaka this year, but it's out of my area so it's hard to get it 😅. I went to Ueda for sake activities, but the brewery does not sell directly, so I bought it at Miyajima-san in Ueda 😀. This Yamazan-san was also a very tasty sake, fruity, not too heavy and beautiful 😀. I guess Nagano sake made with Nagano rice makes a delicious sake 😀. It would be great if there was a distributor in a place where it is easier to get it 🤣.

Good evening, Yasbay 😃. We happened to be at the same time in the mountains🍶😁. Fruity, not too heavy and beautiful ❗️ I know 😋. Sake from Shinshu is very transparent👍

Good evening, Yasubeyesan🌛I see you were able to procure it locally from Yamasan-san 😳I envy you✨️ I can get to the store in Kyoto that carries it if I try hard enough, but I think I'll ask Jikkun for some ☺️ It has a strong flavor and is not too heavy...I am curious 🤤.

Yasubeyesan 🍉Oh, I was toasting with you at Yamasan last night! We had a toast together last night at Yamasan. ❤️ It's delicious... ‼️ I'd like to try all of them since there are so many different types of sake from different rice 😊I'm impressed that Yamasan's individual sake is so unified even though there are so many different tastes from different types of rice 💓

Hi Yasbay 🐦! I'm sure the sake you bought locally tastes great! I'd like to try the Kinmonnishiki 😊. I'd love to try some of this Kinmonniki 😊 There are a lot of sakes from Shinshu that you can't buy even if you go to the brewery 💦.

Good evening, Bekho 😀 It was a pleasure to toast with you 😇 The rice used for sake in Shinshu is quite unique and tasty in its own way, and the way the brewery has made it taste like a brewery while bringing out the different flavors is masterful 😀.

Good evening, Pon-chan 😀 I think I would have been more attached to the sake if I had purchased it from the brewery... but still, I am thankful that there is a local sake shop like Miyajima who is said to deal only in sake from Shinshu 😇.

I am very happy to announce that I have successfully passed the sake taster's exam. Last year, I took the sake diploma exam and passed the first round but failed the second round of tasting and writing 🤣. Since the exam is held once a year, I thought I would forget what I had studied if I didn't do anything, so I decided to try the sake tasting exam first 😀. The first exam for the sake diploma is valid for 5 years, so I'll switch and try again next year 🤣. So, as a reward to myself for a while, I'd like to post a series of Nagano sake that I've been really into lately😇. First up is this Shinshu Kamerei 🐢 😀 It's still delicious 😇. It's still delicious 😇 The 🐢sama does not betray us 😇 The sweetness and umami are well balanced, but it finishes nicely so you won't get tired of drinking it 😀.

This year, I was aiming to complete all of the SHI-CHU-SAN, but it was indeed difficult to do so in parallel with the Nigorinpik 😅. The pace of the release of the different labels of Murasaki Sake is so fast that today's Heart Label is the last of the Murasaki Sake stock because of the space taken up by Nigori-Sake🤣. This Heart Label was also a delicious sake😇 The sake rice used is Gingin Ginga 😀. The sake rice used was Gin Ginga 😀 It had a gorgeous aroma among the Murasakyu series 😀 It had a heavy sweet-amami flavor. It had a heavy sweet umami flavor, but it was a delicious sake with a beautifully gorgeous taste and a nice sharp finish 😀. Next season, I would like to complete the Murasaki Uchu series 😇.
