Hidakami初しぼりかすみ酒純米

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!

Japanese>English

ジェイ&ノビィ

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!

Today is the first time to drink outside in the new year as planned! We went to our favorite yakitori restaurant and enjoyed drinking! After a quick chat about the end-of-year cancellations, we had our first drink! It's been a long time since I've had a drink, but it's Hiroki Shuzo Honten's Tobiroki! Let's have it right away! First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. When you put it in your mouth, you will be impressed by its beautiful mouthfeel. It has a soft sweetness and spiciness that I like. It also has a slight old-fashioned sake feel to it, giving it a sense of thickness. The lingering taste is soft bitterness. It is a well-balanced sake that goes well with meals. By the way, it is a great place to drink, eat, and stay with a variety of really delicious dishes!

Started work this week It was a busy week since I had to take a break due to the flu at the end of the year. Sake is the best for a tired body! So today, I will open a bottle of sake that I received from a friend at the end of the year! Nagurayama Sake by Nagurayama Shuzo! This time it is a new sake! The first time I had a bottle of Nagurayama sake, it was very delicious, and I love it! Let's enjoy it right away! The first day First, the aroma. The citrus aroma is refreshing. When you put it in your mouth, it is not too sweet and fruity. It goes down smoothly. After that, the bitterness gradually spreads, and the spiciness spreads with a suit and a slightly salty taste, and there is a slightly heavy aftertaste that is both fruity and refreshing, like sake. The taste is complex and not easy to understand, but I found it to be an interesting sake. On the 3rd and 4th day The bitterness has weakened and the impression of sweetness has become a little stronger, but the overall impression has not changed much. Tomorrow we will visit our favorite yakitori restaurant for the first time in a long while, and for the first time in the new year! I'm looking forward to the three-day weekend of sake drinking!

Today is the first takoyaki party of the new year! After all, takoyaki is the best at home! Here is the accompaniment for the takoyaki party! Kitaya Premium from Kitaya It was a gift from my brother, and his girlfriend picked it out for me! I imagined it would be dry because it's from Kyushu, so I immediately started to eat it! The first day First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. In the mouth, you can feel a fluffy, beautiful sweetness mixed with spiciness and bitterness. The mouthfeel is very clean and easy to drink. It has a slightly fruity flavor, and the overall taste is gentle and medium. It is a very tasty sake that goes well with food. Day 2 The gradation of sweetness and bitterness, followed by a gentle spicy aftertaste that spreads in the mouth, is delicious today as well! This time, it is cooled down to a crisp and has a sharpness. Warmed to lukewarm. This time, we also served it warmed. The sweetness increases in the mouth, and the aroma on the nose is also very nice. The lingering aftertaste is longer in cold sake, which I prefer. It was a gift, but it was so delicious that I can't stop traveling for sake because of encounters like this!

Yesterday I went to my parents' house to wish them a Happy New Year! My mother's favorite brandy as a New Year's gift. We had a New Year's dinner with dishes that my mother prepared for us. My father, who usually restricts himself to a variety of foods, was also rude on New Year's Eve, so we drank a lot of beer, highballs, brandy, and shochu together and had a fun night! Here is the sake we had that day! Kamo Nishiki by Kamo Nishiki Shuzo! This time, we had a cargo tag sake, Short-stalked Watabune! This sake was recommended to us last year and we were looking forward to drinking it! So, let's have it right away. First, the aroma. It has a refreshing citrus aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness spreads quickly. It is already bliss! After that, a fresh and soft sake flavor appears. The bitterness gradually appears from the back, and the lingering sweetness is also blissful~! A truly delicious sake, perfect for an enjoyable party!

Sukiyaki for dinner I was a little excited to have a standard meat. I don't like beef, so I tucked into my mother-in-law's delicious side dishes. Here is the accompaniment for such a rich dish! Jikin by Kiyamasa Shuzo! This time it was a nigori sake that I won in a drawing! Jikin is one of the sake that got me hooked on the sake swamp, so I know it is delicious! By the way, I already had this one at my favorite Yakitori restaurant! So, let's have it right away! The first thing is the aroma. First, the aroma. It has a fresh aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the chile chile is more robust than you remember. The sweetness, complexity, and dryness of the chile chile are exquisite! Nigori The sweetness and umami are delicious! I think it was freshly opened at a yakitori restaurant, but it was very tasty, although the image was more chili-like and dry than last time! My father-in-law and brother-in-law also enjoyed it! They were very happy with it, and it was a fulfilling revival sake! Heating up the sake The next day, we also had the recommended nigori (nigori-style) heated sake! The aroma is very sake-like. The aroma has a strong sake-like flavor, and the taste in the mouth is plump and delicious. Sake-like aroma. The acidity makes it easy to drink and delicious.

Happy New Year to you all 🎍. Thank you very much for your support during the past year. Also, thank you so much for all your kindness when I had the flu at the end of the year! I look forward to working with you again this year. Well, the first time in the New Year, we had a drink at my wife's parents' house. My father-in-law, who does not drink alcohol, unusually drank, and my brother-in-law and his wife joined us for dinner. The sake we had was Sansho by Hananoka Shuzo! This time it was Yamadanishiki Rokunozo! I had been looking forward to drinking this sake, even though I had put it away for quite a while! So, let's have it right away! First, the aroma. It has a refreshing aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a good sensation of chiri-chiri-chiri-chiri-stimulation. It has a hint of sweetness and a smooth mouthfeel with a sake-like flavor. The impression is very dry, but it is delicious as ever with a great umami flavor! My father-in-law and brother-in-law were very pleased with the taste! I thought I would drink it slowly since I was coming off the flu, but it was gone in no time at all! Sake is the best after all! ❣️

Japanese>English

I had the flu for the first time in my life. All my year-end plans are cancelled. I am the saddest that I can't go to my favorite Yakitori restaurant to greet the end of the year. Please take care of yourself so that you don't get sick during the year-end and New Year holidays! Now that the medicine is working and I have time to look at my cell phone, I will post a bottle I drank just before I got the flu! Kido by Heiwa Shuzo! This time it was Muryozan Junmai Daiginjo! I saw this one posted on Sake-no-wa and wanted to try it. Let's have it right away! The first day First, the aroma. The sweet aroma is already blissful! The sweetness in the mouth is very strong and you can taste it the moment you take a sip. The beautiful and delicious sweetness, which is hard to describe, sinks in. The lingering blissful aftertaste with a hint of bitterness and sweetness. This is too delicious! It is a really delicious sake that you may enjoy drinking by itself! Fourth day The sweet and refreshing aroma that passes through the nose from the sweet flavor is irresistible! After that, there is a lingering, slightly bitter aftertaste. When served with a meal, the sweetness is less pronounced than on the first day, and the lingering pungency that spreads in the mouth gives the impression that it is easier to serve with a meal.

Today is Christmas Eve. I'll be looking at the Christmas postings on my way home from work, and then my wife and I will be buying chicken (Kenta) and enjoying the Christmas spirit strictly at home. Here's a drink we had on Christmas Eve. Akanesasu by Tsuchiya Sake Brewery. This time it was a sparkling dry sake. This is the sparkling wine I wanted to drink. I got it the other day at the Komenohana and was looking forward to drinking it. Before I give my opinion, I have to say that it was a really tasty sparkling wine that I would like to repeat. Now, let's have it right away. First, the aroma. Surprisingly, it has a sake-like aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the first impression you get is that it is very sour. It is very refreshing. The sourness is the first impression, but there is also a hint of sweetness and a nice aroma. In any case, it is easy to drink! And it is delicious! Even my wife thinks it's delicious! My wife also said it was delicious! The bitterness is only slightly perceptible in the aftertaste, but this seems to create a moderately dry feeling. It was really tasty, shwashy, and refreshing, perfect for a toast. It was another blissful sake time today.

Our family also drank this sparkling dry ❗️ It's delicious👍

Yesterday I went shopping in Osaka. We went to Hamagurian for lunch for the first time in a while. I had one glass of sake. It was a Kuroryu Daiginjo from Kuroryu Shuzo. Let's have it right away. First, the aroma. The sweet aroma is very nice. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the smooth taste. It has a soft bitterness and a slight spiciness, with a refreshing aroma and a slight sweetness in the aftertaste. It is delicious. On its own, the sake had an image of being gentle and clean, but when paired with a meal, the umami flavor and aroma were well perceived, and the sake itself was a delicious sake that could be enjoyed even during a meal. The third picture is the Hamaguri Ramen from Hamaguri An.

Hi ma-ki-. I've never had Kuroryu either because of the orality of the label, but it looks easy to drink 🤤and by the way, clam ramen and legendary sake is too austere 😆.

I was feeling better after having a bottle of Jinzo and wanted to drink a little more. So tonight, we had another sake that we could only drink a small portion of. This is a sake from a brewery I have never tasted before. It is Wakakoma Junmai Ginjo from Wakakoma Shuzojo. This is the last bottle I bought as a souvenir from my trip to Toyama. I will have it right away. First, the aroma. The aroma is not so strong. When you put it in your mouth, you feel the old-fashioned sake? The moment you take a sip, you will feel a beautiful sweetness. The aftertaste is spicy and lingers in the back of the throat. It is a little peculiar, but it is also umami and a little complex, which is different from the taste I usually enjoy, but I like it this way. This was the last of the Toyama souvenir sake. It was a very satisfying experience for me to be able to taste so many Toyama sakes during my trip.

Japanese>English

＠水橋

Good evening, ma-ki-san🌇. I am glad you enjoyed your sake trip to Toyama. Mr. Wakakoma is a relative of Mr. Katsuma. I often meet him at events and he is a simple and serious person whose personality is reflected in his sake. Please come again 😉.

Thanks @Mizuhashi for your comments. It was my first trip to Toyama sake, and all of the sake were memorable and delicious ✨. Was Wakakoma-san a relative of Katsukoma-san😲? It was a delicious sake with a delicious sweet taste😊.

Good morning, ma-ki-chan 😃. We think of Wakakoma as a Tochigi sake 🍶😅It would be interesting to compare Wakakoma with Toyama 😋.

I'm in the mood for a bit of drinking today. So, what shall we drink? The other day, we went on a tour of Kyoto's sake breweries, and one of my wife's favorites was Matsui Shuzo's Kagura. This time it was Junmai Daiginjo White. The sweetness was impressive when we tasted it, so we are looking forward to it. So, let's have it right away. First, the aroma. It has a refreshing sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, it goes from refreshing to sweet deliciousness~. The sweetness seems to be of the refined Wasanbon type. From the strong impact of the sweet and delicious taste, a little saltiness and full-bodied taste can be felt. It is not too sweet as it finishes quickly and smoothly. The lingering aftertaste is a slight bitterness. It is still delicious. My wife also said it was delicious. It is of course delicious on its own, but I have the impression that it would not be bad with a meal. The drinkable size when you want to drink a little, and this deliciousness, it was a very satisfying saké tonight as well.

Japanese>English

Good evening, ma-ki-chan! I think the Kamizo that your wife liked in Kyoto, it looks sweet and delicious ☺️2It tastes even better when you can share the taste with others 🥰I also like Kyoto's sake, I think it's elegant and easy to drink 😊.

My wife and I are drinking at home today. What shall we drink? The Nigorin Pic has started at Sake-no-Wa, but we don't have that much nigorin at home, so after much deliberation, we decided on this. This is the first sake from the brewery. Takeyu Junmai Daiginjo Aizan by Takeyuu Co. This sake is brewed with Ogawa yeast. Let's have it right away. The first day First, the aroma. It has a sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will taste sweetness, sharp bitterness, and spiciness that spreads in your mouth. It has a very firm spicy aftertaste. It was cold at first, so when it cools down a little, the balance of sweetness, bitterness, and spiciness improves, and the umami flavor is enhanced. It is delicious in its own way. When served with a meal, the bitterness and pungency become less pronounced and the balance with the sweetness improves even more. It is also delicious with a meal! Day 2 The sweet aroma that is somehow typical of Aizan passes through the nose while the sweetness is blissful. The bitterness and pungency are only slightly lingering. On the second day, the sake is quite sweet and delicious. Takeyuki is also a brewery that I learned about through Sakegawa, so I was deeply grateful to everyone who helped me find such a delicious sake.

Japanese>English

ひなはなママ

Good evening, ma-ki-! First, congratulations on your bravery: ㊗️ Today you are drinking at home with your wife 🍶😆 I have never had it, but it seems to be a very spicy and bitter sake. But I'm glad it turned sweet and tasty on the second day: ❣️

Today was a day I was able to spend slowly. I thought about taking a day off from drinking, but I felt like drinking. So we will open another bottle today. It is the first sake from a new brewery. It is a Ryusuisen from Ichinoya. This time it is Hitokochiki. I happened to come across this sake at a liquor store when I was looking for a sake from Nagano Prefecture. Let's have it right away. First, the aroma. It has a sweet vanilla-like aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a refreshing taste. It also has a slightly stimulating taste. Then, a refreshing pear-like sweetness is felt, and a fresh aroma passes through the nose. In the latter half, there is a soft bitterness that spreads in the mouth. I thought it was a slightly unusual flavor that I cannot describe well. When matched with a meal, the taste became richer and more umami. However, it did not interfere with the food. It was a delicious sweet and bitter sake that went very well with meals. Personally, I felt that it is a sake that I like to drink with meals. Well, it was a weekend where sake healed me and gave me energy for tomorrow.

Today I went to my wife's parents' house to make the annual New Year's cards for my parents-in-law. After the work, we had dinner. My mother-in-law is a very good cook and always makes a lot of delicious snacks. Now, I brought some sake to my wife's parents' house for a drink. It was the first time to drink sake from the brewery. Finally, we were able to drink a bottle of Oki Daikichi Honten's instrument Masamune. This time it is Hakutsumi. My wife's parents don't drink, so it's just me. So, let's start drinking. The first day First, the aroma. It has a fruity aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a fresh, fruity sweetness. Perhaps it is because of the sweetness that accompanies the spiciness, but it is not too sweet, and I felt that it was well-balanced. After that, a soft bitterness is felt slowly, and once again, I felt that the balance is good. There are also moments when you can feel the firm alcohol. As the temperature rises, a banana-like sweetness emerges, making it an enjoyable sake that changes in taste with temperature. It is a sake that becomes more and more delicious as you drink it. The second day The sweetness increased and the overall taste became milder. The bitterness is also well balanced, making it easier to drink on the second day.

I wasn't planning to drink today, but somehow I felt like it. So we decided to have some Tomiou, which was sold by weight on Tuesday. It was my first experience of selling by weight, so I had it with the memory of how much fun it was. First, the aroma. It has a fresh, slightly citrusy aroma. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the bitterness from the smooth mouthfeel. It also has a hint of sweetness, albeit moderate. The lingering aftertaste is the bitterness and spiciness that spreads in the mouth. It is a fresh and powerful sake, and although I found it a bit spicy, it is very tasty in its own way. It goes well with meals, and during the meal, I felt that the sweetness was also well balanced with the bitterness. I tried it on the rocks, which is also recommended. I tried it on the rocks. After the sweetness increased a little, I felt the bitterness was stronger, and the pungent bitterness spread quickly. It seems to have lost some of its curdiness. It is very difficult to feel the difference in taste. I was really happy to be able to spend time drinking sake, and I am energized for tomorrow.

Junmai Daiginjo Oorigarami Aizan Milky and full of umami, but not too sweet. It can be enjoyed as a food sake. Junmai Daiginjo Oorigarami Betsuatsurae Yamadanishiki A clear, old-fashioned sake with a strong umami flavor. It also has a strong umami. The lingering aftertaste is refreshingly bitter and well-balanced. Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki A classic sake that has been around since the beginning. It has a smooth mouthfeel. It has a soft sweetness and a salty taste with a soft lingering bitterness. A sake that is delicious every time you drink it without giving up. Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake At room temperature. The taste in the mouth is very robust. A nice spiciness from the firm mouthfeel that only junmai sake can have. The second half has a refreshing citrus aroma, sweetness, and a soft lingering bitterness. The rice used to make this sake is Kinuhikari. When you put it in your mouth, the sweetness and bitterness give way to umami. It is clean and fruity. The lingering aftertaste is a soft bitterness that is common to all of the wines we have had today, and I felt it was exquisitely balanced. It has been a while since I have had Aozora, but it was delicious.

Good evening ♪ It's nice. I'm on the shinkansen to Kyoto, but this time I didn't have time to visit Fujioka Sake Brewery. That's also why I drank yesterday😊. What shall I drink tonight 🍶 (the beer I'm drinking on the bullet train is hydration💫)

Good evening, ma-ki-san 😀 Kaorin and I often visit sake breweries in Fushimi, but we only go to the south and west side of the station 😅. I'd love to visit there next time 😇

Today is my day off, so my wife and I are in Kyoto for a sake brewery tour. I saw a post by Sake no Wa about visiting a kamizo (a sake brewery) and thought it was close to Demachiyanagi area. We decided to visit a brewery in Fushimi as well. We originally planned to go from Demachiyanagi to Fushimi, but we had to stop at Tambabashi due to a train accident, so we started from Fushimi. Although we could not visit the brewery, we first saw the massive exterior of the Matsumoto Sake Brewery and then went to the nearby Kitagawa Honke Brewery. This was our first visit to the brewery. Kitagawa Honke's Tomio. This time, we tasted three kinds of sake and took home two small bottles. The Junmai Daiginjo, which is sold by weight, was poured into bottles on the spot, which was a very exciting experience. This post is about the remaining bottle (the one on the far right). Probably an alcohol-added daiginjo according to the description. First, the aroma. The aroma is not very pleasant. When you put it in your mouth, it has a refreshing sweetness and a beautiful mouthfeel that you would not expect from an alcohol-added sake. It was very tasty and very satisfying to drink. However, my wife was a little uncomfortable when she felt the alcohol was too strong, so we gave up on taking it home. All of the sakes were very refreshing and tasty with a straightforward taste. After enjoying Tomiou, we moved on to Fujioka Sake Brewery in Aozora.

Hello, ma-ki-chan! A weekday date with a couple in Kyoto in late autumn✨ I wish I could make a tour like that 😁. I'm curious about "Tomio" as I haven't had the "Daiginjo" spec yet 🍶, the Kyoto sake that I first found to be to my liking!

Thank you for your comment, HinaHanaMama. I'm the wife who is forced to go out with me even though it's called a date 💧. But she seemed to enjoy it and I was very satisfied with the day ✨. The sake in Kyoto was delicious too 😊.

Thank you for your comment, Gyve. I went to Kyoto and my wife took me on a tour of the brewery without doing any sightseeing 💧. It was my first time to try Tomiou and it was a direct sake that I could see why it tasted so good😊.

Good evening, ma-ki 😃. I'm so jealous of your Kyoto sake brewery tour ✨✨. It's exciting to see sake, isn't it? I don't have enough experience with Kyoto sake, so I'll be referring to this 😊.

Thank you for your comment, soumacho. It was my first time to visit Kyoto sake breweries too and it was really exciting: ⤴️ I didn't have many chances to drink sake in Kyoto, so it was even more fun 🎵. If you have a chance, please do 😊.
