お鮨屋さんでいただいた米鶴で日本酒の美味しさを知り、焼鳥屋さんでいただいた而今と作の美味しさに魅了され日本酒沼にハマりました。 基本的にお米の旨味が感じられる甘めの日本酒が好きです。 週末の家飲みと、月に数回いきつけの焼鳥屋さんで呑んでます。 自分の記録として投稿していければと思います。

Today (also?) I went to my favorite yakitori restaurant and had a drink! This time I made a reservation! Then, the owner prepared a nabe that was perfect for a cold day like this! The ingredients were oysters and albacore! He must have remembered that I told him I liked albacore last time! Thanks to the owner! And here is my accompaniment for such a wonderful evening! Jikin by Kiyamasa Sake Brewery! This time it's Yanase! The proprietor prepared it for us tonight: ⤴️ Since it was a special occasion, we all enjoyed it together! First of all, let's take a look at the aroma. It has a soft and gentle aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it starts from sweetness. Then, a soft aroma wafts through the nose. It has a slight bitterness and a sharpness that is different from the Jikin that we are used to drinking, but it is delicious! Even though it is al-douched, it is not sharp and clean from start to finish. The aftertaste is a gradation of spiciness, bitterness, and a hint of sweetness. As you continue drinking, the whole flavor becomes richer and richer. It is too good! The image I had of this sake was that it was gorgeous and delicious! But this time, I felt it was a little different. It was really delicious, with a beautifully sweet and delicious taste - the sweet aroma that lingered in the nose was also fantastic! We had a great time drinking tonight as well!

When I saw a post about Risshun Asa Shibori on Sake-no-Wawa, I wanted to try it myself! I was so excited that I dropped by the liquor store on my way home from work! Today's sake is Gobashi Tachiharu Asashibori from Sakai Shuzo! This is the first Risshun Asashibori! And it's been a while since I've had Gobashi! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. I love the aroma of sake! In the mouth, it's chirpy~ It's so energetic~! And what's more, it's fresh and lush! It is heavy with a hint of sweetness, but the mouthfeel is beautiful. From the middle to the latter half, the taste gradually changes from bitter to spicy with a lingering aftertaste. It is also a delicious sake. It is a delicious sake with a good balance of sweetness, bitterness, and spiciness, even when paired with a meal. I am so thankful that I have never heard of Risshun Asa Shibori if I had not started sake-no-wa!

Good evening, ma-ki-chan 😃! It's interesting to see all of you drinking different Risshun Asashibori ✨. I'm looking forward to the Gobashi I'm going to have in stock, too 😊.

This week has been a bit of a flurry. So I'm going to let sake heal me. I'm having Nabeshima by Tomikuchiyo Shuzo! This time it's Junmai Ginjo Yamada Nishiki! This is the first time for me to drink Nabeshima's Yamadanishiki, and the first time for me to drink it at home, but I got this sake at Komenohana, which I visited last year! So without further ado, let's have it! The first day First, the aroma. It smells sweet. When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the chili. And what can I say? It's so fruity and sweet! The fruity sweetness is the best in recent years. Although there is a parallel bitter taste, the sweetness is very impressive and sinks in. There is also a slight saltiness in the aftertaste, which is very tasty! When paired with a meal, the bitterness increases and the sweetness seems subdued, so it does not interfere with the meal. Fourth day. When I put it in my mouth, the chiliiness has gone into the background. But the aroma is fruity. The balance is still good even on its own, with a refreshing sweetness, a slight sake taste and bitterness. The aftertaste is a bitterness from the spiciness. The overall impression is a bit thin and the bitterness is a bit strong. When matched with a meal, on the contrary, the sweetness increases and it is interesting. It would have been better to drink it as soon as possible after opening the bottle, but it is more than enough delicious sake.
Japanese>English

Good evening, ma-ki-😃. Nabeshima, I like drinking at home ✨. My mom who used to live in Nagasaki used to say Nabeshima is the sake of Kyushu. Even though my mom doesn't drink sake (lol). Your review sounds delicious and I would love to drink it 🍶.

The last dish at my favorite yakitori restaurant was not on the lineup, but the owner said, "We don't normally serve this dish to people who don't have reservations, but here it is! The last dish at my favorite yakitori restaurant was this one, which was not on the lineup. Jikin by Kiyamasa Shuzo! This time it was a special Junmai Nama! It's been quite a while since I've had a special junmai draft, hasn't it? I was so happy that I was dancing like a maniac (lol). After the bottle was uncorked, we had a toast with the owner and the waiter! I'm going to have it right away! First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma. When I put it in my mouth, I feel a little chili. Already blissful! Sweetness and complexity, but also very freshness. Too good! The taste and the richness at the end, it was too delicious and too blissful! Despite our sudden visit, we were served a lot of delicious sake and food, and had a great time talking and drinking with them!

Here is the third drink at our favorite yakitori restaurant Kankoubai by Kankoubai Shuzo! This time, Shirokuma Winter Light Nigori The label of Kankoume is also very cute! The name is a combination of the picture of a white bear and the characters! I haven't tasted Kankoume since the last time I tasted Owl! Well, I'll have some right away! First, the aroma. Refreshing? It has a fresh aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will be surprised by its mild sweetness and umami. My first impression is that it is delicious! The slightly thick mouthfeel is also good! The spiciness spreads in the mouth in the latter half, and it is not too sweet.

Today, the last day of January, I had my annual physical exam with my seniors! I went in with only 4 days sobriety, but the result was, well, you know....... After the checkup, we had the usual unhealthy lunch! This year, I ate a lot of beef cutlets! And for the first drink of the day after my abstinence from alcohol, I just wanted to drink this one! Hana-no-Kou Sake Brewery's San-do! This time it was a 2023 Yamadanishiki Ninonosai! I thought it would be absolutely delicious, so I immediately started to drink it! First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. When I pour it into the glus, there are air bubbles - it's a quintessential Sansho-san! In the mouth, the sweetness and effervescence are exquisite. It also has a little bit of sake flavor, which is great! The bitterness and pungency are only slightly felt in the second half. The freshness that spreads in the mouth is also blissful. It is also really delicious! My wife also gave it her seal of approval! It is a little sweeter than the Rokunozo we drank at New Year's, and I have the impression that it is even easier to drink! I haven't been doing much to quit drinking, but Sanndo-san was definitely delicious and made me spend a blissful time drinking after my abstinence from alcohol! The after dinner sweet was a Pablo's soufflé cheesecake✨ that I bought as a souvenir on the way home. It's great to have a sweet treat after a long time!

Today is a relaxing day off with my wife. I was thinking of taking a day off drinking, but I decided to have a light lunchtime drink. So today we drank some rice wine from the Nishida Sake Brewery. This time it was Shiwari-Gobun Hyakuden, a 1 gou can sake! I happened to find it at a liquor store in Minami last year and brought it home! I appreciate 1 gou cans when I want to drink a little! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a refreshing citrus aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it is sweet, delicious, and fruity! Already delicious! After that, a slight bitterness and spiciness, which may or may not be present, come on top. In the aftertaste, a sweetness different from the one you felt at the beginning comes out. It is easy to drink and delicious! I have the impression that this delicious sake in a can is quintessential Tasake! My wife also said it was delicious! Good sake really makes me feel blissful!

Hi ma-ki-San, I see you got a can of Tasake. ✨️ I'm impressed. ☺️ It's really like a luxury can of sake, good for a little sipping 🍶I haven't had much Tasake yet, but I have the impression it's not a bad drink 😋.

Thanks for your comment Nao888. I had given up on it this year, but I was really lucky to happen to see it when I went to the liquor store 🎵. I don't often come across tasake either, but I have the impression that I never miss it every time 😊.

The next sake is Tomio by Kitagawa Honke, which I brought back from my sake brewery tour last year! This time it was Premiere Amour. I remember it was a very fruity sake when I tasted it! Well, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. In the mouth, it is fruity with not too much sweetness and acidity. It has a ripe apple-like flavor. The finish is short and smooth. It has a mild taste, so it goes well with meals. Although it has a mild impression, the more you drink, the more fruity and delicious it is! It was truly a blissful time for me to finish the day with a delicious sake!

Good evening, ma-ki-! The more you drink, the more fruity is a phrase that makes me want to try it 🤤. With Sandesi, you might have to buy 3 bottles to get enough 😆.

My wife and I went out today. Lunch was the 4th shrimp and avocado galette. It was very tasty and the restaurant was very lively! This is the one we were going to have at the end of the year for such an evening! It was my first time to visit this brewery! Hirotogawa by Matsuzaki Sake Brewery! This time it was Yamadanishiki Junmai Ginjo! Hirotogawa is finally available! We'll have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. When you put it in your mouth, the mouthfeel is smooth and silky. It is very beautiful. Then, from the sweetness, there is an impactful bitterness. The sweetness and bitterness mix together to create a sharp and refreshing bitter aftertaste. I have the impression that the bitterness is a little stronger than the sweetness. When served with a meal, it has an exquisite balance. It is also a delicious sake! The second day The mouthfeel is smooth and smooth. The spiciness spreads from a beautiful sweetness in the mouth and is refreshing. After that, there is a lingering bitterness. It is difficult to describe the sweetness because there is bitterness in the sweetness. And today, too, the sweetness and umami are more beautifully perceived when served with a meal. The third day Mild sweetness to bitterness. The aftertaste is gentle bitterness to a hint of spicy-sweetness. Overall, the taste seems to have become milder. This is the first Hirotogawa. I got the impression that it is best served with a meal.

I've been drinking every day this week. After Masayo's drink, we had Tsuchiya Sake Brewery's Kame no Umi (Sea of Turtle)! This is the first time for me to drink at home! This time it was Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake! We got it at the end of the year at Komenohana! Now, let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It has a sweet citrus aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it is sweet and fruity. And it has the firmness of unfiltered unpasteurized sake. The moment you taste it, it disappears without a hitch. This is a strange sensation! After clearing the palate, there is a lingering gradation of not too strong, wrinkled bitterness and finally a fruity, gentle sweetness. This is a delicious sake! Day 2 The fruity sweetness is delicious again today! And the lingering aftertaste is the same, too. The aftertaste is milder than yesterday's, and the refreshing spicy-bitter-sweetness is bliss! The third day. The sweetness is still there, but the lingering firmness is much lighter. It is still delicious enough, but I felt that I prefer it up to the second day. I realized that I really like Kame no Umi, too! I want to try other labels this year!
Japanese>English
Nao888
Good evening, ma-ki🌛I found Kame no Umi at a liquor store just the other day and was curious about it ✨️ It was recommended at work, so I will bring it to you next time 🍶It is sweet and fruity despite the impression on the label 🤤.

This week has been a flurry of activity! Well, sake for a tired mind and body! This time it's Masayo from Tenryohai Sake Brewery! This time it's Tama Hibiki! This sake was also given to me by a friend at the end of the year! This is the second time I've tasted TAMA-HYOUKI, and the label has changed! Let's enjoy it right away! The first day First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it feels a little chili. It's nice! Refreshing sweetness with a hint of bitterness. The lingering aftertaste is a refreshing spiciness that spreads in the mouth from the bitterness. The bitterness and pungency are not so strong, and you can enjoy the refreshing sweetness. This is a great sake! Day 2 Chirichiri - Refreshing sweetness. I like the way it has a slight traditional sake feel to it. The lingering aftertaste is smooth and crisp, then bitter - slightly sweet - and then soft bitterness again. The gradation of the aftertaste is irresistible! The third day. There is still a slight chili sensation. The fresh citrus sweetness also continues. The bitterness is felt in the aftertaste, so there is a good balance. Fruity and delicious! Day 4 The chili flavor is gone, and the bitterness and sweetness are gone in a flash. The overall impression is that the taste has been diluted. Masayo this time was so delicious that I was healed all over!

New Year's party with my parents today We were supposed to have a year-end party, but I caught the flu, so it was switched to a New Year's party. My father has been on a strict diet since last year, but today was his customary rude party, so he drank a lot of beer, shochu, and whisky at the second bar, and was very drunk at the end. My mother talked and drank a lot and enjoyed herself very much. The party lasted over 6 hours! The only drink we had at the New Year's party was this one, which we had at the first restaurant! It's been a while since I've had this sake! Yamamoto Honke's Junmai Daiginjo Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a sweet, fruity aroma. In the mouth, there is a fruity sweetness and a slight bitterness. Since the sweetness comes first, the bitterness does not leave much of an impression. It has been a long time since I have tasted this, but the sweetness is bliss! I didn't take notes, so this is a review from memory, but it was a delicious fruity-sweet sake! After that, my father and I had shochu, and the second time we had whisky, and it was an enjoyable drinking time! After returning home, I took a bath and felt refreshed. I'm going to drink sake at home now because I didn't drink enough!

The second bottle in the drinking comparison was a dry special junmai from Nagato Gorge by Okazaki Shuzojo. Let's have it right away! First day First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the traditional sake flavor from the beautiful mouthfeel, and the bitterness and spiciness come rushing in. However, neither the bitterness nor the spiciness are too strong, so although it does not feel dry, it is a very robust sake. The second day The sweetness has increased, but the sake flavor is still there. The bitterness and pungency have weakened considerably and the image of sweetness has increased. Day 4 From the bitterness, there is a slight sweetness and sake taste. The base remains the same, but it has a slightly different feel. Lukewarm Since we're here, we also tried heating the sake. The dryness is still the same, but you can feel the impact of the spiciness and a hint of sweetness. And the aroma of rice wafting through the nose is also very nice. It was another new encounter with sake that made me feel the depth of sake.

Hi ma-ki-, ☀It would be interesting to compare drinks from the same brewery. ✨️ You did a great job reviewing the difference between sweet and spicy 🤤I want to try heating sake, but I only buy sweet 💦.

Thanks for your comment, Pon. The letters are unique and have an impact. ⤴️ I think this one is more dry, but not so strong that even I could enjoy it 🎵. You never know until you drink it 😊.

Thank you Kano for your comment. I see you have tried Nagato Kyo 🎵. It's really delicious with a strong taste sensation that changes when heated, and the aroma of the rice is so refreshing. ⤴️ Now is exactly the season for heated sake 😊.

Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama! Thanks to my brother-in-law and his wife, we had a really luxurious drinking experience ✨. I'm sorry that my impressions are not always the same 😅. We would like to do this kind of drinking comparison once in a while 😊.

Thanks for your comments Jay & Nobby. I did indeed swing wide, and in the beginning I had to drink water to reset it 😅. That's right. We don't have any dry sake in our house, so I'd like to get some that would go well with heated sake😊.

Thank you Nao888 for your comment. It was fun to compare drinks from the same brewery 🎵. I'm sorry that my reviews are always so irreplaceable 😅. I'd like to get some sake that would go well with heated sake since they are all sweet sake as well 😊.

This week we compared different specs of the same brewery! This is the first sake from the same brewery! Nagato Gorge by Okazaki Shuzojo! The first bottle was a Junmai Ginjo SILVER! It was given to me by my brother-in-law and his wife on New Year's Day! Let's enjoy it right away! The first day First, the aroma. It has a citrusy but slightly sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it gives a sweet impression, but the mouthfeel is smooth and not too sweet. It has a pear-like flavor. There is not much bitterness, and the lingering aftertaste is a little spicy at the back of the throat. It is easy to drink and delicious! The second day The sweetness is a little stronger and the bitterness is a little more pronounced. The lingering aftertaste is short and smooth, and the citrus aroma lingers on the palate. Fourth day The sweetness and bitterness give it a more pronounced pear flavor. I was reminded again that there are surprising encounters with sake that I might not have encountered on my own. It was a delicious drinking time tonight too!

I remember being impressed by the delicious soy sauce and miso when I traveled to Yamaguchi Prefecture 😊This comparison of Yamaguchi's local sake sounds delicious! It's hard to find a sake with a sake level of ➖5. ‼️ sweet and bitter citrusy, I can imagine 🥰.

Hi ma-ki-😊 comparing drinks from the same brewery, that's intoxicating👍. I prefer the SILVER one. I've never had either of them just because ma-ki-'s review made me feel like drinking them 🤣.

Thank you for your comment, Pheho. Memories from a trip can be enjoyed over and over again. ⤴️ It was fun to compare different sakes 🎵. There are many delicious sakes from Yamaguchi prefecture, and I hope to drink more of them in the future 😊.

Thank you for your comment, Maru. It was a good drinking comparison good sake activity ⤴️ It's great that you made an imaginary comparison in spite of my poor impression 😁. I'm sure there are many other kinds of sake, I'd like to try them if I get a chance 😊.

The three-day weekend flew by. But we had a great time! The three-day weekend drinking at home was a favorite brewery of mine, Shimizu Seizaburo Shoten! This time it was a new sake! I received this sake from a friend at the end of the year. We also had it at our favorite yakitori restaurant on Saturday! Now, let's enjoy it right away. The first day First, the aroma. It has a refreshing citrus aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel sweetness and bitterness, and the aroma passing through your nose is bliss! The lingering aftertaste is a bit of spiciness with only the bitterness remaining, and finally the bitterness and spiciness disappear, leaving only the sweetness, which is also very nice. It is a very beautiful gradation of flavors, and the taste is as good as you would expect. The third day The sweetness is felt with a gorgeous aroma and passes through the nose - still bliss! The taste is a little thick and smooth, with almost no bitterness or pungency. After that, a refreshing spiciness spreads to the back of the throat, and a hint of sweetness and fragrance can be felt. Fourth day The sweetness is a little more pronounced. The bitterness and pungency are almost gone, and the overall taste has become milder. After all, Sakusama is always delicious and makes me feel blissful! The fourth picture is my favorite shinasoba from Menyashiki. It has been a while since I had it, but it was delicious!

I think I've learned a little more recently that ma-ki-san ❣️ changes its taste day by day, becoming rounder and milder😊I'm sure I'll end up drinking it all, but this way of enjoying it is also nice ❗️ And the shina soba is beautiful✨🤤.

Thanks for your comment Pheho. I can't drink that much so it takes me a few days if I drink it chitty-chitty😅. But it's fun to change the taste 🎵 The shina soba is salt-flavored, but I really like it 😊.

Thanks for your comment Nao888. I see Saku often, so I understand why you are putting it off 💡. I love Saku because it's the sake that got me hooked on Sake along with Jikin 🎵. It's shina soba shio, but it's delicious 😊.

Good morning, ma-ki-. I recently noticed the fact that you don't drink Mie sake at home 😲. I still can't figure out why I didn't buy sake when I went to Mie last year💦. I'll have to buy some "zak" 🤣.

Thank you for your comment, Gyve. Have you had a chance to drink at home in Mie yet😲? I guess there is such a thing as timing 💡. If you have a chance, please give it a try 🎵. I also recommend Ura Hanzo, which you haven't tried yet 😊.

Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments. You two can go for the next one if you want 🎵. I've never been able to open a bottle in one day, but that's a good thing because I can enjoy changing the taste 😊.

NAGI
Thanks for your comment 💕 My face gets swollen and amazing when I drink non-hot sake 😅 but I like raw sake so I don't mind drinking it 😅. But Saku is my favorite sake that I can drink without worry because it is fire-aged 🍶. Saku is delicious no matter which one you drink 😋.
Japanese>English
ma-ki-
NAGI, thank you for your comment as well. Nama sake, does your body react too much 😲. It's true that Saku is fire-aged, so in that sense it's a perfect match for you too NAGI ✨. All of the Saku are really delicious 😊.

The fourth drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant was a new sake from Sakusaku! This one is now being drunk at home, so I'll post it again! And the last one was Koryu Crystal Dragon by Koryu Sake Brewery! I've had this one many times and I love it! Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. Not much of an aroma. In the mouth, you can taste umami, sweetness, and spiciness. The mouthfeel is clean, yet the taste is rich. I was deeply impressed with the balance of the Kuroryu. We had a great time drinking at our favorite yakitori restaurant for the first time in the new year, and it was a great start to the year! The third photo is a New Year's gift from the owner! It has been a tradition for me to give sake to the owner and his staff at the end of the year, as they have been so kind to me every year, but a few years ago, I started receiving sake from the owner as well, and I'm still a little embarrassed that it's all pre-sake, but this year, too, I was so excited about the sake! Even my wife said, "You were really happy! It looks like it will be another fun year of sake drinking!

Good evening ma-ki-, good evening 😊Wow, thanks for your sake activities 😁Finally, what is Kuroryu...it's good ☝️ I like this drink too 😁.

Hi ma-ki-, ☀️ It's a wonderful relationship to be able to give sake to each other with the owner and staff of a restaurant 🤩I'm jealous that such a restaurant would make my sake life even more fun 🥹I'll try my best to get rare sake too 🤣🤣🤣.

The third drink at our favorite yakitori restaurant is Hirakou Shuzo's Hitakami. This time it was the first Shibori-Kasumi sake! We often drink Hidakami here, but this may be the first time we have had this label! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness and the bitterness. You can also feel a slight tingling sensation in the mouth. The aftertaste is a slight sweetness with bitterness. It is also delicious! And it was a tasting that made me realize once again that HIKKOMI is even more delicious when served with a meal.

The second drink at my favorite yakitori restaurant, Hanzo by Ota Shuzo! This time it was Kami no Ho Shiboritate! Hanzo is often on the lineup here, but this was the first time to try a freshly squeezed sake! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. When you put it in your mouth, the mouthfeel is quite clear. The sweetness is followed by a pungent spiciness that has a strong impact, and then a long pungent and bitter aftertaste. It is not my favorite sweet and savory taste, but it is also delicious! When paired with a meal, the sweetness is felt more directly than if it were on its own, and it is very tasty!

Good morning, ma-ki-San 😃. It's a real sake New Year's Eve at a stable yakitori restaurant 🤗Hanzo! I don't remember it from the prefects' meeting 😅I'm sure it was delicious 😋 I'd love to take the time to drink at home!

Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments. We were able to start another year of sake activities ⤴️ at our favorite yakitori restaurant 🎵. You mentioned Hanzo 😁. We have an image of a sake that is not too sweet, so it might suit you both!
