Tonight we're opening a limited edition bottle of one of our favorite brands, Takachiyo✨. The distinctive pop label design is adorable 😊. I wonder if this one is a collaboration between Shin Takachiyo - it's low at 9 degrees alcohol 👍. Now, let's enjoy the aroma first 🤤. It's not that strong, but it smells like white peaches 🍑 and it looks delicious 😋. Now, since there are some oriels settled...just sip the supernatant first...❗️ This one has a sweet, slightly carbonated 🫧 peachiness 🥰. Fanta Peach 🍹 in other words.... It's so good....I mean it's a juice, this sweetness 😅 lol. I mixed some oli in the second glass, but it was a little bit too little to begin with, so no big change in taste 🤔. This is too easy to drink and dangerous ⚠️ If you are a weak drinker or if you like sweet, no doubt: ‼️ However, it is definitely not suitable for eating 😰. I think it's best if you drink it before or after dinner with dessert 😆.

Tonight, from Chiyomusubi in Tottori, which I have not seen again since March... Ichigeki 🌾. You can't get this Ichigeki in Hiroshima, but I happened to be lucky enough to get it from an acquaintance 😏. I remember it was very good the last time I drank it, and since I didn't get a chance to try heating it up, I'm retrying it cold and warmed this time 😁. Well, first of all, let's open the bottle! The aroma is of apple and the taste is of mint. The aroma is apple-like, but not strong. The aroma is apple-like but not strong 🙆. The aftertaste is wonderful 👍...but if I wanted more, it might be a little less characteristic and not enough 🤔. But all in all, it's a very good sake with a good price tag 😍. Now...on to the warmed sake you've been waiting for 🙋🙋. I'll have it at about lukewarm temperature 😋. I feel that the flavor of the rice (🌾) expands in the mouth and takes the taste to another level compared to drinking it cold 👍. Personally, I prefer to drink this with heated sake😊. It may be hard to match with strong dishes like barbecued meat, but in general it has a taste that can be used with any food 🥰. Day 2: 🗒️ First, cold sake... delicious 😋. It's a little spicy, but on the contrary it's a good accent 👍. The higher the temperature of the warmed sake, the more stable and tasty it is 😆.

Today was the first snow in our city ❄️ It's been warm during the day recently, so... suddenly it's very cold 😨. On such a cold day... I'm going to open a bottle of my favorite brand "Takashi no Tsukasa" Winter Akari ⛄️ 😁. First the aroma ❗️ The lactic acid-like yogurt-like aroma is quite intriguing 🥰. The oli is quite precipitated... so I'll just sip the supernatant first 🤤. While it has a pichiju🫧y raw sake feel, the supernatant alone is a little dry and not too sweet 🤔. Now for the second cup with a good stirring: ☺️ Oh 😳This one has a silky, lactic acid taste like a Fatty Pisgah Soda👍. It has a nice sharpness and little bitterness, so it's still my favorite lol. If Sanuki Kuraudai is like Capapis, then adding a little carbonation makes this "Fuyuakari" 😍. I can't wait to see what kind of flavor changes I can enjoy tomorrow... ✨ Day 2🗒️ I didn't taste much 😅... but... the pizzazz was still the same and the taste was stable 😘.

Totally unrelated to Good Meat Day 🍖...the opening ceremony ✨ lol Tonight, I would like to open a bottle of my favorite brand of sake Happy New Born 😁. It's been a year since we've seen each other 🤭. Let's see how it does this year: ⁉️ With high expectations, I opened the bottle! The aroma is a fresh ginjo aroma like tropical fruits 🏝️ ✨. There's a little bit of ori (ori) settled in the bottle, so I'll just sip the top clear liquid first 😋. The pichi🫧jeweledness of nama-zake is subdued, but from the first sip it's balanced and delicious, like a micro-carbonated juice 🤩. I think this is what it would taste like if you took the milk out of the fruit au lait and added carbonation 🤔. I don't know...is this Fanta Fatty with a little less carbonation ❓ lol Next, I stirred the second cup 🤤 and it tastes even better 👌👌. More flavor and even better 👌👌. It's refreshing, easy to drink, and has a nice sharpness to it, so you won't get bored even if you keep drinking it by itself 🥰. I would like to drink it with dessert before or after dinner 👍 Day 2🗒️ I thought the pithiness 🫧 might fly away, but I can still feel it on the second day👍. Nice and consistent taste 😁.

Tonight, this is 💁. From my hometown in Chiba prefecture... Narumi 🌊✨ Although...I honestly didn't know about it, so it's my first time drinking 😅. When I was still young, I had no knowledge of alcohol 🍶, so it's no wonder 😭. I looked it up and it seems to be a local sake 🍶 from Katsuura in the outer bosu area of Chiba prefecture 🙂‍↕️ Well, I'm sorry for the long preamble, but now it's time to open the bottle: ‼️ There is a warning ⚠️ so open it carefully 🤣. I had no problem opening the bottle...so let's smell it first 🤤🤤.... I'm not sure what to expect.... It's like a green apple with a little habit 😅. I took a sip of the top clear liquid first.... It has a nice juiciness... but still a little habitual sourness + a little bit of a tangy taste🤔. Personally I found it a bit subtle... so I stirred it and went for the second sip 😆. I found that stirring it increased the flavor 👍... but it was a bit habitual. I'm not that crazy about the aroma 😭.... I'll drink half of it and hope to taste the rest tomorrow ‼️ Day 2: 🗒️ The habitual aroma has lessened... but it's still there a little 😅. As for the key taste, I'm not sure if it's the astringency in the aftertaste while keeping the juiciness? Bitterness? Bitter taste? I feel like the aftertaste has increased 🤔... Well... it's good, but if it's the same Chiba Prefecture sake, I prefer Fudo 😓.

Tonight...I opened a bottle of Aizan, a sake rice diamond from my personal Hall of Fame brand Jikin that got me hooked on Sake 🌾. It's a good married couple's day 😅. Well, when I opened the bottle, I knew... what is it... you can tell it's a Jikin... ❗️, this Ginjo aroma ✨. I wonder what it is...I feel a unique ginjo aroma in the sweetness that is different from other breweries 🤔. I'm captivated by the taste that doesn't betray my expectations 😅 Not a sake brewery 🍶🤭. Well, I'll have some right away 😋. The smooth taste, fruity sweetness like apple🍎 or peach🍑, non-habitual aftertaste and sharpness✨...I can't get enough 🤤. I feel like I'm recovering from my daily fatigue ❤️‍🩹 lol The depth of sake produced by human hands...I still want people to know more about it‼️ I especially want young people who don't usually drink to know about it (to the extent that they don't become alcoholic 😓) I used to be able to buy a bottle of sake...it's become a brand I can't easily afford 😭 Day 2: 🗒️ Excellent stability because of the fire 🔥‼️ I hardly feel any change in aroma and taste 🥰. I'm still drooling over this ginjo aroma alone... 🤤 lol

Hi ma-ki 😃 I was shocked when I drank it for the first time 😳I didn't know there was something so delicious in the world ✨Jikin has a special ginjo aroma when you open it even if it is made from different rice 🌾. I can't get enough of that aroma 🤣.

It's mid-November ⁉️😅 before I know it this year. It seems like I drank this snowman ⛄️ just a few days ago...but it seems so soon 😓. To be honest, I was going to open a bottle of sake suitable for heating up tonight... but it's warm enough today without the stove on, so I chose to drink it cold 😍. So...first time in a year 🍶🍶. The aroma is light and lemony, typical of Sentori 😍. While I was taking pictures to try the top clear liquid, it started fermenting and stirring on its own 😰. There was no turning back now...so I poured it into a glass and took a sip.... This is... 🤩‼️ It's sooooooo good! The moment you taste it, you can feel the juwak🫧 of the raw sake, the sourness of the lemon🍋 that is typical of Senkou, and the sweetness and sharpness...exquisite and unstoppable💦. It feels light like lemon squash juice🍹 (of course, it's sake, so the sweetness is not that strong). I'm back on track, and this time I stirred it well 🤤 and drank the second glass. I feel the balance is even better than before👍 How about tomorrow's taste change: ⁉️ Day 2🗒️ Not much taste change 🤔. The silky taste is still bright without losing its juiciness 🥰.

It's getting cold... so we're going to fire up our wood stove 🔥 for a test run as well 😁. And once that happens, it's a staple in our house to heat up the water in a kettle placed on the baking sheet 🤣. Well... for the first shot of such an important hot water heating, we chose Kaze no Mori 🌳 after a long time. It's my first time to try this sake, but the name is very promising ✨. But first, a quick glass of cold sake 🤭.... It tastes like a slightly carbonated black vinegar apple juice combined with the piquancy of the raw sake 🫧 and the old sake taste 🥰. I couldn't help but think it's delicious as it is ‼️... but I'm going to heat it up properly lol. Put a seal on it... when it gets to about 35℃, it changes color⚫️→🔴👌. The piquancy is gone, but the flavor deepens and the spiciness increases, making it the best match for a meal. ‼️ This one is quite drinkable and you might like it a lot 🥰. So...I'm going to try a trick I heard about from an acquaintance: mixing it with cold sake 🤩. This is my first experience with ...... ‼️ At the moment of drinking, you can feel the piquancy of the sake, but soon it changes to a spicy taste that is typical of sake for a meal 👌 The temperature range is between lukewarm and room temperature, so it's easy to drink without any peculiarities. ‼️ Well... this is a great taste... 😳 I'm sure I'll be back for more 👍 lol The second day cold sake was less sizzling but still delicious 😋.

Tonight I'm opening a bottle of Sakurafukietsu🌸... a jun-dai (pure) draft sake from Kanemitsu Shuzo🍶, a local brand in our area. Kanemitsu Shuzo is a well-known brewer of Kamo Kanehide, which many people like... but they don't ship their Sakurafukietsu series outside of the prefecture? I've only seen it in my hometown or suburbs😅. Actually, this morning... I went to buy the Kamo Kanehide sake that is only available at the direct sales outlet... but I didn't expect it to be sold out 😨 I got the notice on line on Monday... I didn't expect the 120 bottle limited edition to be sold out on a weekday... 😂... 😂. I was shocked, but I bought it immediately 😨! I was shocked and bought it immediately 🤭 lol Well...I'll open it now that I've been preaching for so long: ‼️ Gorgeous apple🍎 strawberry🍓 pear🍐...fruity aroma🤤. The mouthfeel is quite light and easy to drink 👌Among them, the piquancy derived from the raw sake? The taste is quite light and easy to drink 👌and you can feel a hint of pithiness 🫧 from the raw sake in the middle of it. Delicious... 😋. It is really excellent that there is no bitterness or other unpleasant taste in the aftertaste 🥺. But...because I like it, I wonder where is the distinction between Kamo Kanehide and Sakurafukiyuki brewed by Kanemitsu Shuzo 😅. After all, they are both delicious and have a similar taste 💧. Well, I'm not complaining because they are generally delicious 😓.

Just because it's Hana Friday✨... chill... 🤭. Tonight is Tenbi 💁 lol 😆 And I'm getting excited on my own....but this year, I'm really pushing for Amami here 💁....I find myself pushing for it a lot 🤭. It's a nigori sake 🍶, so the ori is precipitated. 🙂‍↕️ The first thing to do is to open the bottle without stirring 🎊. It has a moderate ginjo aroma, but not strong 🤔It smells gorgeous when poured into a glass 🥰. Now let's enjoy it right away 😋😋. I can feel the juiciness even though it's not stirred 🫧. The balance of sweetness and sourness is already quite good 👌 It's light, like a slightly carbonated soft drink 👍 Now, the second cup from the stirring: ❗️ The juiciness is not so different, but the umami is much improved ⏫. I recommend stirring for ogara-mi sake. ‼️ The first glass is a bit more light, like a green apple sour, but it disappears with a light bitterness ✨.... Well...I guess I'll be keeping my eye on Amami in the future 🫢. Day 2: 🗒️ I thought it might lose its juiciness, but... I can feel it well 🫧. The flavor is also up⤴️ and nice👍

Today's first drink brand 🍸. It's from Ozawa Sake Brewery in Nagano, Japan and it's called ✨Yumemiru Hedgehog🦔. After all, the label is so cute that you wouldn't think it's sake🍶 at first glance: 🙂‍↕️ When I think of Jukes..., my mind goes to 'that paper airplane ✈︎... 🎶' 😅. "Right!" If you think that...we are of the same generation 🤣 lol Now, I know I'm off topic, but let's get to the main topic: ‼️ It's still tomorrow's weekday... but I don't even care about it anymore, I'm opening the bottle 🍶 lol. The aroma is sweet and fruity like apples and grapes... I'm excited even before drinking it. ⤴️ Now then... let's have it! This is...❗️ the first time I drank it, I thought there was a brand that was close to something I drank in the past 🤔... And then I thought back to my past repertoire in my brain and the closest match was...this one! It's "Winter Poem of Goddess of Oriental Beauty" ‼️ It tastes like apple juice with a lot of juice 👍. It's very refreshing and easy to drink 😁. I can drink it very easily 😁. I can feel a slight bitterness in the aftertaste, but I don't mind it. I can feel a slight bitterness in the aftertaste, but it's not bothersome... I want to repeat this next time 👌. Day 2: 🗒️ Even better with sweetened up ⤴️ 😊 The second day was also beautifully delicious 😋.

Recharge your energy for tomorrow 💪.... ...that's an exaggeration, but well, I'll open it 🤣 lol Today! Modern Zero Nama Sake ✨ from my favorite Sengoku! Sentori has been calling themselves "back to Edo" since last year, and they are all about making sake that is mainly sake made using the traditional sake yeast...out of the classic and modern sake that I missed out on last year, this is the one I had this year 😍. The Retro I drank last year had a strong lemon flavor that is unique to SENKYO...how about the Modern here ⁉️😁? Let's open the bottle 🍶. The aroma is quite light with a hint of lemon 🍋? It has a calm impression 🤔. The first sip...oh! Hmmm? It's too light and lemon water 🍋 ran through my mouth ✨. It's light like... water, so to speak👍 Of course, it has the taste of sake and the sourness of SENKYO, but... this is quite light 🤔. On the contrary, it seems to reduce the lemon 🍋 feeling of SENKYO as much as possible 💧. Of course it's delicious, but I think I prefer the Retro I had last year because it has a more intense flavor 🤔. I think the modern one lacks a little impact 😅. ps. I didn't feel the fizziness 🫧 of the raw sake 💧. Day 2: 🗒️ The Senkou-like lemon🍋 rises dramatically: ⤴️ But also a little bitterness 💧. Personally, I prefer the second day 🥰.

Today we're having our usual home drinking 🍶. This is 💁 a sake from the prefecture... honestly, this is the first time I've seen this 👀Mitani Haru sake 🤔. Founded in 1806‼️ over 200 years old, it is a fairly small brewery that seems to only produce a small amount of sake 😓...but...! It has won first place🥇 in sake competitions in the prefecture for the past few years, so expectations are high 😁. So much for the preamble... let's open the bottle 🤣. The aroma is fruity like strawberries and pears 👍. The taste is smooth and sweet ✨The high alcohol content of 17% is not so much felt at the moment of sipping... but the aftertaste is very strong 🙂. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but I'm sure it's a good thing. Personally, I like the taste so-so 😍. Now on to the second cup after stirring 🙋. You can taste the lactic acid bacteria like calpis⚪️ and at the same time, the alcohol that I was feeling in the aftertaste comes rather early on 💧. Personally, I think I like it a little lower in alcohol content because it makes it easier to drink 😅. I didn't feel much of the juiciness 🤔.

Before the company party 🍻...a sake lover's party 🍸. I had never had it before and had been curious about it for a while, so I selected it without hesitation ✨. This one is a sweet, low-alcohol sake called KASUMI 💁. As soon as the bottle was served, I immediately felt it was more for young ladies than for 40+ year olds like myself... 😓. However, I ordered it and I will drink it. I'm sure you can imagine what it tastes like from the picture of the glass without having to do a report 😅 The aroma is sweet like fresh peach...and then the first sip...oh my! It's also rich like Fujiya's Peach Neta Fat ✨But there is no lingering aftertaste so I didn't think it was too much 🙆. Although it says the rice polishing ratio is 90%🌾, I could hardly feel any unwanted flavors🫢. The low alcohol content of 8% makes it easy to drink for those who are not very strong drinkers 🤔. It is good to drink with dessert after a meal 👍 It is also good to drink it on the rocks like Sanuki Kuraudei which I reported on before 😍.

Tonight is here 💁. We are the first and only company in Japan to offer the hiragana takachiyo series ✨. The stability and the price are very reasonable 👍. Today, we selected GREEN label 🏷️ ✨If you only hear the name of it...normal drinkers will think of KIRIN's ◯◯ 😅. However...! Tonight we will be opening a bottle of Takachiyo🤣. When you open the bottle, it has a sweet greefy 🍇🍋 feeling! Pour it into a glass and you will feel the sweetness even stronger, which is quite intriguing 🤤. The top clear liquid is settled in the bottle without stirring first 😋. Oh...! Even without stirring, this one has the typical Takachiyo-esque sizzle and greefiness rather than sweetness: ‼️ No...I was surprised that it tastes better than expected without stirring 😱. Now... let's get down to business 🙋 Stirred and on my second cup 🥂. KITTAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! The taste has evolved into a deeper flavor by adding more umami to the clean taste before stirring ⏫. The balance is sweet with a little bitterness and a good sharpness, which makes the cup go on and on 🤣 lol. I knew it....Takachiyo is a safe feeling that will not betray you 😘. Day 2🗒️ I'm not sure if it's a good idea to drink it all on the first day, but it's a good idea to drink it all on the second day. I recommend drinking through the first day: ⭕️

Tonight is the first time in a long time that I've had Otters🍸 from Yamaguchi. Otters have been well-known all over Japan for some time now, and no explanation is needed...right? Today's bottle is a pure large sparkling 🫧. Ori is settling... but since we only have 1 gouge, we don't have time to enjoy only the top clearings, so we stirred it and opened the bottle before opening it: ❗️😅 Gorgeous ginjo aroma ✨, fizziness on the palate 🫧 and harmony of umami 🎶. It is indeed a stable taste 👍. I don't often buy it because I know it's good... but it's still good 😋. If I may say so... it's like a beer. It's like the king of beer, like a Fatty Dry 🍺. But if I had to choose a sake in Iwakuni, Yamaguchi, I would choose either Ganki or Gobashi🤣.

I found a bottle of Oku from Aichi that I got hooked on after drinking it for the first time a while ago at a liquor store, so I bought it again 😂. I was hooked on it the first time a while ago, so I bought it again 💁, ORIGAMI Slightly Active <Nama>.................................from the name, it's a delicious one 🤣. Now, the long awaited Kaisean ritual: ❗️ The aroma is not that strong...the description on the back label says it smells like Japanese pears👍. It's more like a fresh fruitiness 🥭...or something like that 😘. Without further ado, let's drink it... ‼️ The moment it hits your mouth, you'll feel the microcarbonation-like juppiness 🫧 that makes it easy to drink, while the sweetness and grapefruit-like bitterness collaborate ✨. If you imagine the taste of grapefruit sour, it will be close to it. 🙂‍↕️ However... I still feel the depth that only sake can have... (I think to myself, "Yum~~~..." lol). In my opinion... if I were to list the sake breweries that are similar in terms of dryness, I would say that... (Dry) Machida > Oku > Takachiyo (Sweet) I have an image of that. Looking forward to tomorrow's taste change✨ Day 2🗒️ I didn't feel the taste change that much 🤔 Most of the time, the second day is the day when you don't feel the schwashy feeling... but this one didn't feel it at all and was still juicy and delicious on the second day 🫧.

It's been a while since I've had any sake 🍶, so today I'm finishing off October with one of my favorite brands... Amami from Choshu Shuzo in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi ✨! This is the second time I've tried Amami since it became my favorite 🤩 after drinking it at a tasting 😍. So let's open the bottle 🍸! The aroma is neither strong nor weak with a hint of pear 🍐...just right 😆. Pouring it into the glass... you can visually see the shwash🫧 of the raw sake 😳 I can't resist the desire to drink it when I'm writing the report... so I drink it quickly 🤣 lol. The taste of the shwash on the palate is more lighthearted than microcarbonated juice 👍. I think the sweetness, umami and some bitterness........................................leaves a little aftertaste? 🤔 But it is not peculiar and is easy to drink 😘. After all...Yamaguchi Prefecture's sake is deep😅. In Iwakuni alone, there are Otters, Ganki, Gobashi, Kinjaku....and others like Wakamusume, Yachiyo Shuzo, Amami here, and even Toyo Bijin....the list goes on and on 😱. Our hometown, Hiroshima, is not to be outdone 🤣 lol! Well, well...tomorrow is November...it's early 😓!

Keeping up the momentum from yesterday's sake party 🍶...here's tonight💁! From our favorite brands...Yamada Nishiki 🌾 Nananoujozo from Sancho 🍸 ✨ the best of the season according to the officials 😍! I applied for the online lottery to get a chance to buy this one (it was quite expensive) 😅. In SanDo, the name "Nozomi" is used to describe the rank of the sake, based on the philosophy of agriculture + brewing 🤔. Here are the 7 Nozomoto breweries: (1) rice grown in the Kikuchi River basin, (2) sake yeast, (3) raw yeast, (4) no pesticides, (5) wooden vat, (6) no additive yeast, and (7) shiori ✨. Now... let's get to it... 🥰! I'm grinning even before I open the bottle... but now it's time to open the bottle. The inner bottle cap blew out while I was throwing away the garbage after opening the outer bottle 😱.... I'm glad it didn't blow out 😅 Now, I'll get myself together and pour it into a glass 🥂. The aroma is slightly lemony. The sip from the first sip...a refreshing feeling like champagne 🍾 that spreads in a sizzle, acidity like lemon 🍋, and sweetness of old style brewing shiori (≒Kijoshu) 🥰. The fainting taste makes you forget that this is sake 😵. The best of the season is a convincing taste (cosmetics aside...) 😍 My personal best of the year so far is without a doubt... Sansho 🥇. Thank you for finding this sake 🙏. Day 2: 🗒️ As I said...more schwarziness 🫧⏫. Delicious 🤤.

If you try to open this last bottle.......oh my God! It took me about 5 minutes to get it open 😅. It's not too extravagant to decorate the last part of a sake party lol And here's to another toast...🤣 Again, different from the sparkling 🫧 from the first one I had, this one has a very Shinsei-like acidic flavor that runs through your mouth... and it's sharp ✨. And it's a low 9%, right? 🙂‍↕️ It's been a while since I've had this, but it's so easy to drink that I'm enjoying it a lot 🍸. 6 of us drank it and it was empty in no time 😂. And so...
