We ran out of kata no sakura on Sunday, so we opened the next bottle. So yesterday I started drinking a bottle of W from Watanabe Shuzoten, a new brewery to me! This time it was camoflage Takashima Omachi 50 Let's start with the first sip. The first day First, the aroma. It has a sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the complex flavor from the fruity sweetness to the acidity. The mouthfeel is refreshing and easy to drink. The lingering aftertaste is good, with a fruity aroma on top of a gentle bitterness. The last taste is slightly spicy, which is refreshing but stimulates various tastes and is delicious. The second day The fruity sweetness has increased. After that, it shifts to bitterness. I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The lingering aftertaste is gentle bitterness and spiciness. The smooth mouthfeel makes us feel the sweetness and umami more. I have the impression that this sake is sweeter than yesterday's. Well, we have been charged with sake since the beginning of the week, so we must work hard again from tomorrow!

This week, I had a sudden urge to drink Katano Sakura after reading your post on Sake-no-Wawa, so I hurried to a local liquor store! So I went to the local liquor store to get a bottle of Katanozakura by Yamano Shuzo this week. This time it was Aizan! Let's start with the sake. First, the aroma. It has a unique aroma! In the mouth, it has a fruity sweetness that is not too sweet, followed by a bitter taste that slowly fades away. The lingering taste is a gentle bitterness with a pungent spiciness that is well balanced. The unique aroma that passes through the nose is also a good match with the flavor. Is this a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast? It is delicious with a slightly dry and rich taste. The impression does not change much even if it is served with a meal. If you warm it up to lukewarm, you can feel the bitterness and the alcohol. The aroma of rice is very pleasant, and it's a moment that only heated sake can give you. I can't get enough of the slight fruity flavor. I drank it over a period of 3 days, but the impression did not change much as time passed, and the taste remained stable.

The third and last drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant, Hirakou Sake Brewery's Hitakami. This time it was Watarifune No. 2 I've had a lot of Hidakami, but this is the first time I've had this label! Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It smells fresh and nice, doesn't it? When you put it in your mouth, the umami and bitterness have a huge impact! The flavor has a strong, rich impression with a strong flavor profile. The lingering aftertaste is completed with bitterness and pungency. The umami that goes well with a meal was outstanding this time as well! Tonight was another night at my favorite restaurant, where I was healed by good sake, good food, and a comfortable space!

Good morning, ma-ki-😃Thank you for drinking two bottles of Miyagi sake 😊Both are totally different types of sake, but they are good drinks that go well with food💕.

The second drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant was Atago no Matsu by Shinzawa Brewery This time, a summer love I have often seen this brewery's Atago no Matsuri and have been curious about it, but I had never had a chance to drink it, so I was lucky to find it! Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. I don't feel the aroma much. In the mouth, you can taste a gentle sweetness and a bit of fruity flavor. The overall impression is clean and refreshing, with a touch of umami. The lingering bitter taste is accompanied by a refreshing sweetness.

Today, my wife and I went to Umeda to visit sake stores. Yodobloom Sake→Asano Sake Shop→Hanshin Department Store→Yamanaka Sake Shop→KITTE Osaka→Look around at Yamanaka Sake Shop This time we took the third set of sakes with us! After that, my wife had a drinking party at work, so I went to my favorite Yakitori restaurant to drink alone! So, the first drink at our favorite Yakitori restaurant was Hanzo by Ota Shuzo! This time, it was labeled "Ryoufu Goldfish"! Hanzo is a little bit dry, but I love this sake because it is always delicious! Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. In the mouth, it is full-bodied with a complex flavor. I have the impression that the clean bitterness is doing a good job. It is rather dry, but not too dry. It is a refreshingly dry sake that is not too dry, and when paired with a meal, it is a well-balanced sake with a clear sense of umami.

It's been a dreary week. Especially yesterday, the discomfort level was max. I was tired from work, so I thought I'd have a refreshing summer drink. So this week we had Tsuchiya Sake Brewery's Kame no Umi! This time it was "Semishigure"! After two years of waiting, I finally got this sake, and I'm really looking forward to it! Let's enjoy it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It smells fresh and a little like a lactic acid drink. When you put it in your mouth, the sourness comes quickly, and you can feel the richness of the taste with a hint of bitterness like the rind of a fruit. The sweetness is also refreshing, not too strong, and perfectly balanced. It refreshes the palate at once. The lingering aftertaste is gentle bitterness, citrus and saltiness. This is a wonderful refreshing sake! The second day The acidity has become stronger and more fruity. It also has a complex taste and is very refreshing. It is well-balanced and delicious with a meal. It is not only refreshing but also very drinkable. Thanks to Cicada Shigure, my unpleasant mood was refreshed and I felt refreshed!

Good evening, ma-ki-san 🌛. It feels like we're entering the hot and humid rainy season, and the other day I turned on the air conditioner for the first time this season, although it's in dehumidification mode😅. It was a refreshing change of pace with the sake we've had for over 2 years now!

Good evening, ma-ki-san. The rainy season is here and the days are hot and humid. I bought a bottle of Kame no Umi when I went for a drive to Minami-Shinshu on June 7. The liquor store told me that it is sake with a straw, so I had to buy it. I had to buy it. I will update this page later.

The fourth and last drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant, Hirakou Sake Brewery's Hitakami! This time it was super spicy! Hidakami is great with Yakitori, but it's also great with food 🎵. I can only look forward to this one too! Let's try it now! First, the aroma. I don't feel much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel the richness and sweetness, and the spiciness and umami will spread in your mouth in a whirlwind! It is still delicious! My first impression Although it is called "super spicy", it is not too spicy, but has a great umami taste and is a perfect match with food. Even though he was busy, he gave us a lot of help and gave us snacks and curry to finish our meal, which my wife and I enjoyed drinking with a full belly!

Today my wife and I went to our favorite yakiniku restaurant for a drink! The first glass was Jikin's special Junmai Namaizu, which we had last time! It had been quite a while since we last had it, but it was definitely delicious! So the second glass at our favorite yakitori restaurant was a bottle of Toyo Bijin by Sumikawa Shuzojo! This time, it was Aizan from Jyundo Isshu! Last year, all of them were delicious! So let's have it right away. First, the aroma. Not much aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the gentle sweetness spreads, and the bitterness that accompanies it is exquisite. The lingering sweetness and bitterness that spreads smoothly in the mouth is irresistible~! This year's sake was a definite winner!

Thanks for your comment, Wakata! Yes, it's true - there are times when you want to drink too much alcohol and have to put it off for a long time 😅. It's nice to be able to have a quick drink outside at such times 🤗.

Thank you for your comment, Takashi! You drank a rare Toyo Bijin, didn't you 🎵. We also enjoyed the stablemate from last year, Jyundo Ittouzan 😋. We had a great time drinking again 😊.

This week we had Kudokibe from Kamenoi Shuzo! This time it was from Jr. Ultra High Polishing Rice Co. It's been a while since we've had Jr. Let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It has a sweet and refreshing aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it is not too sweet, but you can feel the richness, spiciness, bitterness, and various other tastes. It is a very strange taste. The lingering aftertaste is spicy and bitter. It's hard to describe the sweetness in it. It stimulates various taste buds until the aftertaste. The second day The bitterness and spiciness hit hard today as well. When served with a meal, the balance of bitterness and sweetness is good, and the umami can be felt well. Personally, I like the umami taste of this wine with a meal. 3rd day The sweetness has increased and the bitterness and pungency have become milder, giving the impression of a better balance. And today, too, I can't get enough of its deliciousness when served with a meal. We are healed by delicious sake this week, too!

Japanese>English

ひなはなママ

Good evening, ma-ki! I think Kudokibe this time is a dry type, right? It looks like it would be good as a food sake 🥰. I haven't had kudokutei since the spicy one, so I can't wait to try the sweeter ones 😍.

Japanese>English

ma-ki-

Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama! Yes, I agree. I felt the bitterness and pungency the strongest among all the kudoi so far 😊. I hope you will be able to find a kudoi sama that suits your taste 🙏.

Japanese>English

Nao888

ma-ki-san, good evening 🌛I haven't been able to drink since the last time I drank hitsu 😅It seems that this one is not too sweet and has a mature taste 🍶I'm slowly becoming fond of sake that has a delicious taste with food 🥰.

Japanese>English

こぞう

ma-ki-chan Good morning! I've been looking for a bottle of this Kudoki-San, but I've given up because there are only one bottle available 😅I want to get it more and more when I read that it's more Kudoki-San than Dry Kudoki-San 😅I'll be looking for it soon!

Japanese>English

ジェイ&ノビィ

Hi ma-ki-😃 I haven't had Kudokibe for 3.5 years 😅. As for J, I'm curious about the taste of Jr 😄The one I had before was sweet, so I'd like to try the dry one from Kochira!

Japanese>English

Manta

Hello ma-ki-san ^_^ I can't believe you named your sake after a company 🤣. I haven't had Kudoki-Tei for a while now, so I think I'll take home a bottle of Kudoki-Tei that I haven't drunk yet😊.

Japanese>English

ma-ki-

Nao888, thanks for your comment. You were drunk 🎵. I found it to be the most bitter and pungent of all the Kudoi I've had so far 😲. Yes - I quite like the flavor when paired with a meal too 😋.

Japanese>English

ma-ki-

Thanks for your comment, Koizo! I'm sure I'd hesitate if it was a bottle 😅. I'm a sweet person, so maybe I'm a bit too sweet to judge the dryness, but it was a delicious sake with a bitter pungent taste and a sweet flavor within it 😋.

Japanese>English

ma-ki-

Thank you for your comments, Jay & Nobby! I too was under the impression that Kudo-san was sweet because he had chosen something that looked sweet, but this one is sweet with a gusto and bitter pungency, so you two might like it too 🤗.

Thanks for your comment Manta! You're right, Kudo-san's name is very interesting 😁✨✨. I'm sure you'll be impressed with the new Kudo-san after a long time too 😊.

Yesterday, my parents and I had a rude drinking party at our usual izakaya. We had a 4-hour first meeting and a 2-hour second meeting, and we had a lot of fun talking and drinking a lot of shochu and whiskey, which we usually don't drink. Well, I'm not going to preface this time, but here's what we had this weekend! Shigeke Shuzo's Yokoyama This time it was GOLD! Following the debut of Mr. Goju Yokoyama, this time it was the debut of Mr. Yokoyama with hiragana letters! Let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the concentrated, fruity, refreshing sweet flavor comes out in a whirlwind! I can't get enough of it! After that, you will feel a nettled umami taste on your tongue, followed by a salty taste and a refreshing finish. The lingering aftertaste is soft bitterness and well-balanced. Day 2 Today, you can feel the refreshing aroma of a lactic acid drink. The sweetness seeps in today as well~. It is citrusy and refreshing, but it also has a richness that stimulates various taste buds. The strong taste gives the impression of being very satisfying. The lingering aftertaste is slightly bitter and refreshing. It was the first time for me to drink YOKOYAMA-SAN, and it was a rich and luxurious sake!

Japanese>English

This week has been a busy one. Here is what we opened on Tuesday, when we felt especially tired. AKABU by Akabu Shuzo! This time it was Yui no Kou! It's been a while since I've had a bottle of Akabu, so I'll have it right away. The first day First, the aroma. It smells crisp and fresh. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a fruity sweetness and a salty taste. After the full-bodied taste, there is a refreshing spiciness and a lingering bitter aftertaste. The change of taste from fruity to bitter is very refreshing and delicious! My wife said, "This is fruity, isn't it? But it also feels sharp in the throat". The second day... The fruity taste has subsided, and I can feel the sweetness and richness. There is a lingering bitterness, which reminds me of grapefruit rind. I can clearly feel the sweetness and bitterness. However, I don't feel like drinking today. Day 3. I suddenly feel fruity. It seems so fresh that I wonder if I wasn't feeling well yesterday! The bitterness is also good, with a very fresh and gentle fruitiness. Delicious today too! I think I will be able to get through this busy week with delicious Akabu-san! 400CI

Japanese>English

Yesterday's story My wife and I went to see a movie, but before that, we went to Noodle House for the first time in a long time! It's been quite a while since I've been to Shiki Noodles. It's a soy sauce ramen, but it's still delicious! I had a side of rare chicken chashu pork! It's delicious, isn't it? The sake for this weekend's chase was from our first brewery! Yokoyama Goju by Shigeke Shuzo! This time it's Aizan I was looking forward to it because I don't get to meet Nagasaki sake very often! Well, let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It has a slightly sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it goes from chili to a refreshing sweetness. Is it the aroma? It seems to have some lactic acid beverage taste. The gradation of bitter taste lingers in the mouth. This bitterness finishes the taste well. It is very drinkable and delicious! There is no unpleasant taste at all, and the more you drink it, the more delicious it becomes. The second day The chiri-chiri-ness is gone, and a beautiful sweetness and lactic acid drink-like aroma spread out. The bitterness is also much weaker, giving the impression of a softly sweet sake. The aftertaste is slightly bitter, salty and sweet. It gives a strong impression until the aftertaste. My wife is going shopping with her friend today, so we are enjoying drinking during the day!

The first day First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. In the mouth, the crisp sake flavor, refreshing sweetness, sourness, and saltiness refresh the palate. The name may be pulling you in, but there is a lingering bitter aftertaste with a hint of appleiness. This is well-balanced and delicious! I thought it was a delicious sake that refreshes and refreshes even on a hot day! [Day 2 Beautiful sweetness and minerality. It's refreshing and tasty with a touch of sourness. There is also a slight sake flavor. The lingering aftertaste is a refreshing balance of acidity and saltiness. It has been hot this week, but the first Hato-san refreshed my body and mind! It made me want to try some of the regular sakes as well!

Now, back to the drinking comparison of Saku-sama! Enochi and I compared IMPRESSION TYPE-M Now, IMPRESSION is complete! Now, let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. The aroma is weaker than that of Enochi, but it smells good. In the mouth, it is sweet and fruity with a chili texture. The aroma that passes through the nose is also blissful. In the second half, the bitterness is stronger than that of Enochi. The aftertaste is short, but it is a delicious sweet bitterness that matches the chili flavor. In terms of sweetness, I have the same impression as Megumi, but the chili and the strong bitterness give the impression that IMPRESSION is a little drier. Day 3 The impression of sweetness is firm. I feel the sweetness is stronger than the chili and the bitterness. The mid-palate is full-bodied, followed by a lingering bitterness. The gasiness and bitterness complement the sweetness, creating a good balance. It is delicious! Fourth day From sweet and fruity to soft bitterness and saltiness. I feel the sweetest taste so far, but the bitterness and the balance is still good. Saku-sama is consistently delicious! It was a blissful time with a fun sake tasting!

The third drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant was a drunken whale from the Drunken Whale Brewery! This time it was Ginrei summer DRUNKEN WHALE! I haven't had a drink from Drunken Whale since their autumn sake. So, let's have it right away! First of all, the aroma. I don't feel much aroma. In the mouth, you feel a full-bodied flavor. After that, there is a slight sweetness and spiciness that is refreshing. It also has a fruity and bitter taste, making it a delicious sake that can be drunk smoothly. Is it rather dry? However, it is very easy to drink with its smoothness and umami flavor. The owner, the waitress, and I are going to travel to Korea next time, so what will we do today? Do you want to go to a restaurant? What to eat? It was a fun time drinking by myself while chatting happily with them! I had my fourth glass of Jigokan again and called out "yummy, yummy, yummy" before heading home (lol).

The second drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant was this one I wanted to try! Fukurokuju Shuzo's Ippaku Suisei! Sake Mirai this time! I was so excited when I saw the menu because I had given up on it due to a storage problem! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. I don't feel the aroma much. In the mouth, the first impression is of a beautiful sake with a refreshing sweetness and no cloying taste. It also has a slight citrusy freshness. It is a delicious sake with a strong umami flavor! When served with a meal, the bitterness came out, which also went well with the meal and was blissful!

I'm in the middle of a Sakusama drinking contest, and today I went to my favorite yakitori restaurant! Since I made a reservation, I was hoping that they might have something to drink that I like! So, before going out for a drink today, we went to Sake Kozo in Miyakojima! I had to give up some of the sakes I wanted to drink this time, and I also had a storage problem, so I got the three sakes in the third picture! This time it's green! I finished stocking up a little early, so I walked to the store. Well, I'm sorry for the long introduction, but the first drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant was this one, which came out when I ordered the unnatural blank space on the right side of the menu! Jikin by Kiyamasa Shuzo! This time it was a special Junmai Namae! I had this in February, and I was still very excited about it! Let's start with the first sip! First, the aroma. It smells great anyway. In the mouth, from fruity sweetness to smooth bitterness, it is as well-balanced as ever, and the aroma that passes through the nose is blissful~! There is also a slight gassy feeling. The flavor is even more pronounced when served with a meal. Delicious to the very last drop - or rather, too delicious! I realized once again that I really love Jikin!

ma-ki-san, good evening 🌛I think the most desired special junmai 🍶 standard and the strongest 🍶 even for Jikin-sama 🤤The stocking is also green-toned and all look delicious 🥰.

The week is over! Thank you for your hard work! Well, I stared at the cellar and decided what to drink today. Let's compare a few of them! So today, we'll be comparing the sake from the brewery that got me hooked on sake, Shimizu Seizaburo Shoten's Sakusama... This time it's Enochi! I've had Enochi many times at my favorite yakitori restaurant, so I'm going to give it to Sandeshi for the sake comparison! By the way, the sake we are comparing is IMPRESSION TYPE-M! Let's start with the first one! First of all, let's take a look at the aroma. It has a sweet and refreshing aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the fresh and gentle sweetness. Then, a slight fruity taste. After that, the taste shifts to a gentle bitterness with a hint of richness. The lingering taste is also slightly sweet, fruity, and a little salty. The aroma on the nose is also very nice. This wonderful gradation - I really like Saku-sama! It was the first time for me to drink Enochi at home, but it's nice to drink it at home where you can savor it slowly.

I'm in the mood for drinking as early as Tuesday this week. So I had a hard time deciding what to drink, and I got this one at my first Takimoto's the other day! Yamasan by Yamasan Sake Brewery This is my first time to visit this brewery, and this time it was Aizan! I've been looking forward to drinking this Yamazan! So, without further ado, let's have it! The first day First, the aroma. It has a fruity aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it has a sour sweetness~. Fruity and very refreshing. I can feel a little chili on my tongue. The lingering bitterness is exquisite! There is a slight alcohol taste, but I felt it is a refreshing and delicious sake! This is too delicious - I really liked this sake! Day 2 Today, the fruity sweetness and bitterness spread out nicely from the beginning. The impression is milder than yesterday, but the balance of sweet and bitter fruity taste is the same. There is a sense of fullness and freshness that is better than the first day. By the way, it is delicious - too delicious - I like it very much! The lingering aftertaste is slightly spicy and bitter, and it finishes refreshingly! This has become one of my favorite bottles! I would like to try another Yamazan!

Thank you for your comment, Kotaro! I finally went to San San 🎵. It was a shocking bottle, just like Kotaro's delicious review 😋. I'm suddenly curious about the other label of Yamasan too😊.

Thank you for your comment, Jive! My first Yamasan Aisan was shockingly delicious and I had a blissful drinking time from start to finish 😋. Now that I know it's available at Takimoto's, I'm tempted to chase it up 😁✨✨.

Thanks for your comments Jay & Nobby! Our first San San Aisan was a really good sake 😋. The time we can say "umeme" while drinking good sake is too blissful to be true 😊. Looking forward to your sake end review!
