Less than 10 days left in this year... I went to the supermarket and saw more crowds than usual, which reminds me that we are approaching the end of the year 🧐. Putting that preface aside... yesterday was my first run of the season after a year's absence ⛷️, so I took the liberty of commemorating it myself ⁉️ and putting it to sleep now... (the kicker is that I forced myself to do it 🤭) This is Tojo Yamadanishiki 🥰. Once you open the bottle... no need to comment on the ginjo aroma ✨. It's already delicious from the moment you smell it 😋. The clean flavor and taste of Yamada-Nishiki and the way it fades away in the aftertaste is consistent with Jigyon's production and I'm in love with it 😍. And...this Tojo Yamada is very fresh 🎶. If I were to compare it to a song 🎧, I'd say it's a fade out... 😁. The good thing about Jikin is that you can drink it after the second day with little change from the first day 🆗. The impression I had when I drank it for the first time more than 10 years ago is still alive and well 🥺. I'll keep it in the fridge for the next year end and new year ✨I'll report on it often 🤭.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😆 Living in the countryside, I'm not used to the crowds at the end of the year... I only go out in my neighborhood after all 🤭. I know what Jikin tastes like, but I want to drink it "just in case" ✨.

It's because it's cold season... heated sake 🍶 tastes so good 😁. I've never really cared for its flavor more than cold sake until now, to be honest 😅. Until I came across this sake last year: ‼️ So... this sake is more specialized for warmed sake than my favorite brand Kamo Kanehide 🤤. Reunited after a year ...so before heating it up, I'm going to try it at "room temperature", which is the recommended way to drink it 😋. When you open the bottle... it has a soft aroma of Omachi even though it's a junmai sake... and as you take a sip, it has a gentle sweetness... and then it disappears with a nice spiciness ✨. Oh, no? I don't remember it being this good... lol It's bad even before it's heated up 😰. I can't stop because I feel like I won't be able to stop......❗️ Now it's time to get down to business... heating up the sake. The temperature is from lukewarm to human skin warming.......it's full of concentrated flavor! The fluffy, Omachi-specific umami spreads in the mouth... it's almost faintingly delicious ✨. I drank it by itself this time... but of course it tastes great as a food sake as well. It would also be great to warm it up a bit and enjoy the changes in flavor as it cools down👍. If you want to try heating sake, this is a must-try 🤭.

Japanese>English

コタロー

Good evening, Mr. Koiing Gull 🌙 Kamokin for heating up, it looks so delicious 🤤It's room temperature at first👍. I tend to go for new sake this time of year, but it's winter and I want to get warm, and warmed sake is great too 🥳.

Hello Kotaro 😀. Thanks for your comment 😊 I've always chosen dry junmai for warming sake, but this one is a definite repeat ✨. And it tastes even better at room temperature 😋. It also warms you up and I highly recommend it 👍.

Only a little more than two weeks to go until the New Year's holiday... 😰. Then, I must make sure to finish my drinking ⁉️ so that I don't have any left over 🤭.... But that's not important... My favorite brand, Hiran 🤩! Happy Newborn✨I opened the bottle 🤤and immediately after opening it...it has a ginjo aroma like a fruit wine 🍎...and I was convinced before drinking it👍this is the aroma of a delicious sake 😋 lol! The first sip of the supernatant ❗️ does not disappoint the unique piquancy of nama-shu... The sweetness and umami are both too exquisite 👏. And the aftertaste is wonderfully sharp, with no bitterness......😌 I wonder how in the world such a drink could be created and I wish I could deliver this deliciousness to someone 🤩. But it makes me sad that the market share of alcoholic beverages is on a steady decline...sake even more so 😢. To all Sake-no-wa readers, if you haven't tried Tobiran, I highly recommend it 👍. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of changes will happen tomorrow 😊. Oh, I forgot to mention... On the second day, the sweetness and umami were more intense. ⬆️ I'm here.... I'm not sure if it's the first day or the second day, but it's still very good.

This time of the year, many sake breweries release new sake one after another, which puts a lot of pressure on the fridge 😅I'm sure... everyone who uses Sake-no-wa a lot is in the same situation 😰 lol. So! I have to open the space in my fridge to buy the next one 🤭. But that preamble aside... Tonight is the first time! Takashi no Tsukasa😁. When you open the bottle... a hint of ginjo aroma✨. One sip and you'll be in bliss 😆. The apple-like sweetness and umami that you feel the moment you drink it... The flavor spreads softly and has a nice lingering taste 😌 that doesn't disturb you. No bitterness, just a nice finish that doesn't interfere with the taste ✨. This is... delicious 😋. I'm curious about the taste on the second day: ❗️ Speaking of Aichi Prefecture, I don't have to tell you... brewer Kuheiji is popular, but I prefer this one by Ko no Tsukasa 😍. Day 2 😁. A little more alcohol, but also more umami 👍⤴️ I think it has a bit of bitterness in the aftertaste. I think I prefer the first day 😊.

While the young wave from earlier sleeps in the fridge until tomorrow night...I'll have another sake 🍶🤭. Here it is again! Here it is, Toyo Bijin from Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture✨! Last time, I somehow found a bottle of Toyo Bijin's raw sake at a certain convenience store 🏪...they have limited editions too 😁. And then I realized it was in my house 🤭 lol I'm sure you're wrong about the apple juice 🍹...it's really ‼️ Families with minors should be careful 😓. Fresh and sweet? I mean, juicy ...... I can't even describe it anymore😅. Less alcohol, sweet and easy to drink. Hmmm...wouldn't this...be a buzz if it was in convenience stores 🏪 all over the country? LOL! I even think 😆. If you see it, buy it ✨. But still... why convenience stores have this 😅

The weekend after a hard day's work is the time to open the bottle! Tonight is the first time! Wakanami Draft 🍶! Sweet fruit aroma when you open the bottle ✨. When you take a sip, the piquancy of the raw sake is not that strong... the sweetness is just right and delicious 😋. And the aftertaste is also very sharp with little bitterness🙆. Above all...even though it's junmai, it's priced at 1,540 yen💰💰 for a pure sake...yeah...pricey! ...Yeah, are you setting the price wrong? It tastes like it's cheap 💦. I can't stop when it's this cosy 🤭. It's more for before or after dinner, but it would be a good pairing for lighter dishes👍. Now...I'm looking forward to tomorrow's taste change: ‼️ Day 2: 🗒️ The aroma is almost the same... but the booziness and alcoholiness has become unnecessarily strong😅. Delicious but... personally I prefer the first day😊. But I guess it's easier to drink than the second day of Wind Forest🌳🤔.

When you open the bottle, the fruity taste is just right and the first sip is refreshing 👍. It has a slightly bitter aftertaste, but it has a nice sharpness ✨It could be a good mid-meal drink 😁. But...I personally don't think I'm going to get into it 😢. However, I think the depth of sake can be found after the second day ❗️, so I have high expectations for tomorrow.

Today's second bottle: ❗️ From our favorite "Hiran"...an extra edition in collaboration with Tani Izumi is on tap 🍶! When I opened the bottle, the aroma was more sake-like than "Hiran"-like 😆. The taste also has the acidity and lightness of Hiran... with the addition of a sake-like, food-like flavor. The spiciness is also noticeable and completely different from the Jikin I was drinking earlier 💦. Personally, I don't think I'd be into it 😭. In a way, I feel like each sake brewery could have brought out their own individuality if they didn't collaborate... The light and easy-drinking wine taste produced by Hiran 🍸 and the robust dry taste produced by Taniizumi... 🍶. I like both of them, but they are different in their own way and fight with each other... I feel like they have a subtle position in the market 😢... However, sake is also about enjoying the changes...so I'm looking forward to a different taste tomorrow ✨. Today of yesterday! So...I drank it and for a second I got a lemon 🍋 taste like Senkou...but I still didn't like the taste 💦. So I went with heated sake 😆. I think I still like this one better 😍.

Congratulations on the registration of "Traditional Sake Brewing" as Intangible Cultural Heritage🎊. No way! With such a happy news...I'm sure you know what sake to open when my daughter's birthday 🎉 coincides with our family news 🤭 lol Well, today is Thursday...and we opened a bottle of Jikin 🍶, the perfect sake for such a happy day 😁! When we opened the bottle...a popping sound and a fruity ginjo aroma wafted in immediately, even though it was fired-in 🤤. And then a sip... a hint of piquancy, sweetness, and umami without any cloying taste... and an aftertaste that goes away as if nothing happened ✨. I also feel a slight bitterness, but it never seems to get in the way... I can only say one word: "Delicious 😋" ❗️ I was originally going to compare the luxurious Yoshikawa Yamadanishiki and Tojo Yamadanishiki for the New Year's holiday... but I think it's okay to open it today.... My only concern is that more and more of these delicious sake will be known and consumed overseas and the domestic distribution will decrease, become unavailable, or increase in price 😭.... It's been a while since I've had a Jikin, but I'm sure it will be in the Hall of Fame for me personally 😆. ps. Looking forward to tomorrow's taste change✨! Day 2 of Jikin 🤤. No major taste changes, just consistent goodness✨. This is what I call a recovery magic heel 🥰.

It's been aged in the liquor store for exactly one year since it was shipped last year 💧. But when you open the bottle, you can still smell the gorgeous aroma and the fizziness of the raw sake ✨. The piquancy and sweetness are there too... with a spiciness and bitterness in the aftertaste, combined with the sake-like feeling of aluzoe, it's easy to drink as a food sake 😀.

We have too much sake in our fridge... so even though it's Sunday, we're opening a bottle ✨. One of our favorite Kamo Kinshu in the prefecture...Junmai Shiboritate Nama (only available once a year): ❗️ Kamo Kinshu is fresh and piquant even when hi-iri... but when it's a nama-shu (raw sake) it's even better: ⤴️ It's fresh and piquant from the first sip 😁. And while it has a fruity taste... the balance of spiciness and bitterness in the aftertaste is almost addictive 😋. It's great as a food wine 🤤. And to top it off, the price is ❗️ Prices for everything have gone up and it's cold in my pocket👛 these days, but this sake is priced at 1,540 yen for 720ml: ‼️ This price for such a delicious sake...I can't get my head around it! Thank you sake brewery! It still has a piquancy even on the second day 👍. The flavor and freshness is also up⤴️... and it tastes different from the first day 😆. Next report on Kamogane... The next report on Kamojin will be the "Christmas Limited Jun Dai Usu Nigori Nama 🎄" which I personally highly praised when I drank it for the first time last year 🥰.

I honestly don't know about the "Fat Jolete Nouveau"...but I'll open the sake nouveau.

However, I do notice a slight bitterness in the aftertaste 🙂‍↕️ Personally, I think it's more of an aperitif or an in-between-dinner drink than a smooth drink.... It's delicious, but I don't think it's the flavor I'm looking for 😭 I wonder if there is a flavor that surpasses Jikin, which is in the Hall of Fame... I'm still exploring 🧐. I like it better on the second day😍. The bitterness in the aftertaste is reduced... the sweetness is increased... it tastes soooo clear 😆.

As you take a sip, you will feel the same expectation... a strong sweetness like a fruit 🍎 that rushes through you at once. The aftertaste is somewhat like after eating a banana🍌.... The piquancy that only a fresh sake can give is felt in the aftertaste ✨. In general...this, this, this! It's an adult fruit ore 🍇😆. The first sip has less piquancy, so it's great for those who don't like fizzy drinks like soda and also like sweet sake 🥰. I didn't get the image of sake from Okayama even though it's a neighboring prefecture...but I still don't know much about it 😅. Will this fruit au lait evolve tomorrow!

It's delicious on its own, but if you notice the oli that remains at the bottom of the bottle and slowly stir it upside down... it also increases the flavor and makes it more profound 😋. I think I'm going to get even more hooked on it 😁. What people call "guess what" is for me a "guess what" brewery 😆. P.S. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

Weekend Corkage Series! I wanted to drink some heated sake yesterday, but I drank all of it before heating it up... Yesterday I wanted to drink a heated bottle of Kamikawa Taisetsu, but I drank it all before heating it up, so... I decided to get myself back on track and opened a bottle of Kamerei Sake Brewery, a good-cost sake from the prefecture. Although it's a draft sake... I bought it at a local liquor store last December, so I guess it's an aged draft ❓🧐. Aside from that, when you first open the bottle of cold sake, it has a strong sweet aroma ✨As you take a sip, the spiciness and umami that you can feel is emphasized by the fact that it is a food sake 😊You can drink it in small doses instead of beer 🍺. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to drink it as a substitute for beer! It's getting colder, so today I'll report on heated sake😁. The deep and profound flavor that you don't feel when it's cold sake ‼️😍 I think this is the one. The complexity and the umami of the rice is because it's junmai with a low milling ratio and not much polishing...it's delicious 😋. I like this one better heated for sure 🥰. I think dry sake is too spicy when it's cold 😅. ps. this is just my personal opinion! Day 2 report: 🗒️ First up is the cold sake❗️ I have the impression that the dryness has been toned down and the umami has increased😄I personally like the cold sake better on the second day😍. Next is heated ❗️ Yes... no need to mention the umami of the sake: ⬆️

It's a taste that can be used with everything from sashimi 🐟 to light meat 🍖. I think the flavor will change more when it is heated up 😁. It's getting colder so tomorrow I'll try the second day's flavor change + heated sake 😍. Day 2ooooooooo! ...and I got home late from working overtime so this is a cold sake only report 😅.

This is an orikarami sake... so the top clear liquid has settled, so we had to try the top clear liquid first: ❗️ I was hoping for the piquancy of the raw sake 🍶 but... no piquancy! But that's just the way it is... when you drink it, mmmmooooooooo sweetness and umami balance... delicious 😋.

I guess tomorrow will be even more delicious ⁉️ 🤤! Well...since it tastes this good on its own, it's the perfect sake for the upcoming nabe season 🍶. I can't wait to see which brand of heated sake we get 😊. Day 2 is a stable...‼️ lol No need to comment at this point, right? Because... it's delicious 😋. I don't know how to comment on the contrary 😅 Well...! All I can say is... you can't go wrong with buying "Atago no mats" ❗️

Hello, Mr. Koi Seagull 😃! It's reassuring to have a stable food wine when you're feeling a bit 🤔 and the twice-delicious oligarami is even better 👍. Nabe 🍲 season...my imagination is growing 😋.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🎑. When in doubt about what to drink during a meal, this is the sake to choose! I personally think Atago no matsu and Hakurakusei✨ are the best 😁I can't get enough of the flavor and sharpness that doesn't interfere with the food 😊. Hakurakusei looks delicious heated 😌.
