The food and drinks were delicious.
Many of the waitstaff are foreigners, but their Japanese is good and they explain the drinks very well.
The sake is of the Shinmasa or Senkou type, isn't it?

For my first drink at home, I chose Sentori.
The taste is the same as usual.
It has a light acidity and a hint of sweetness that flows smoothly down the throat.
If you are not careful, a four-pack bottle will be empty in no time.
I paired it with a crab hot pot. I think it goes great with crab.
Thank you very much.
Be careful not to drink too much this year!

Happy New Year🎉
I know what Raifuku tastes like, but it is a jack-in-the-box.
For the first time in the New Year, I chose it because it is a sake that seems to bring good luck.
Happiness seems to be coming from over there.
It has a melon-like taste, and while it has a sweetness, it is refreshing to drink.
We had it with Osechi cuisine.
Thank you very much for the meal.
I wish you a happy new year!

I forgot to give it to you.
This is my first Blue Label.
For better or worse, it is refreshing.
I thought it would be a bottle I would keep on hand for everyday drinking.
We had it with a pot of lemon casserole to enjoy the many lemons we received.
The lemon refreshed me, and the Blue Label refreshed me even more.
It was delicious. Thank you very much.

Dorashi is my favorite brand.
Nigori sake is my favorite kind.
If so, there is no reason not to choose it.
I was expecting more of a sour taste, but it wasn't as strong as I expected.
However, I was able to taste a slight sweetness and a refreshing feeling that is typical of "Dosai" (spicy) sake.
Today, I had it with lamb hot pot. It is not overpowered by the meat.
Thank you very much for the meal.

With this, Shikoku has been conquered.
I received this as a gift on my trip to Shikoku. It was recommended by a local liquor store.
Since it is a draft sake, you can feel the richness and alcohol. When you drink it, it is a little tangy. It is a strong and powerful sake.
You can feel the power of this sake.
We had it with barracuda sashimi and miso-pie.
It was delicious.
Thank you very much.

I was looking for a sake from Gifu Prefecture that I had not yet conquered, and then I came across this.
It seems to be sold only in supermarkets.
I looked at the lot No. and chose the last number.
Blame? It doesn't mean much w
I thought it was refreshing and good for a mid-meal drink.
We had it with seafood hot pot. It was delicious.
Thank you for the food.
Purchased at Olympic Takaido store.

It is a stable taste.
This is the first time I tried Kaze no Mori heated (warmed), and it is possible.
The aroma is enhanced and the taste is different from that of cold sake.

Takepon-san ALPHA5 is a delicious sake that can be enjoyed both cold and warmed up 😋.
I drank it cold the first time I tried it 😁.

Thank you for your comment, ma-ki-. I understand, drinking it all up cold. I thought it would be a waste of sake in Kaze no Mori because I had an image of packaged sake when I thought of heating it up. I thought it was a waste of sake in Kaze no Mori, and I didn't have the courage to warm it up.

Last week, when I was in Asakusa, I went to a liquor store that I had planned to visit at least once and unexpectedly found and bought a bottle of Ras 2 Yukidaruma.
I had had Kabutomushi before, but this was my first time.
I love nigori sake.
The subtle sweetness and light petiteness are nice.
It is refreshing and tastes great with a meal.
We had it with hot pot. It was delicious.

Okinawa conquered!
I thought I was going to be in Nagasaki, but it turned out to be Nagasaki.
Frankly, that's a shame, because that was my goal.
However, it was indeed a daiginjo.
It was delicious, with a subtle sweetness and no bitterness.
It may be a luxury sake as a food sake, but we had it with lemon nabe (hot pot) using a lot of lemons that we received as a tax payment from our hometown.
It was delicious. Thank you very much for your hospitality!

Jay & Nobby, thank you for your comments. Yes, we are very happy to hear that. I will wait a little longer for the dawn of Okinawa. The hot pot was made by your wife with a domestic lemon, which we got from the hometown tax payment 😉.

I bought this sake at the brewery when I visited Suwa last month. It is a limited edition sake made at the brewery after two summers of storage. I am weak against the word "limited.
It is said to be a 2023BY junmai ginjo-shu brewed in the old-fashioned "yamahai" style.
I wonder if this kind of aroma is called melon-like aroma. It has a faint sweetness, but the aftertaste is very refreshing. I would have liked to compare it with the one that had not been laid to rest.
I paired it with a soy sauce based hot pot.
It was delicious. Thank you very much.

This is the second sake I purchased in Suwa, which I visited the weekend before last. I couldn't even get lunch today, and as a reward for working hard, I opened it without waiting for the weekend.
It is the first Daiginjo I have had in a long time.
A sip. It has a faint sweet aroma. It is refreshing, but it finishes crisply.
It is delicious. Maybe the Masumi and Daiginjo are getting to me.
If I buy too much sake, I get complaints that my refrigerator gets too small, so this was 300 mm.
It ran out quickly.
I paired it with red meat and eringi mushrooms that I bought at the butcher shop.
It was a feast.

I bought it at a liquor store I discovered while out of town.
It's a jackpot purchase & a liquor purchase in an area where I haven't been drinking.
When I took a sip, it flowed down my throat easily.
Dry and lighter than expected?
From the second sip, I could taste the umami while it was refreshing.
I wonder if the flavor will change over time?
I would like to open it up a bit and enjoy it again.
The meaning of "rabbit's ascent" is a metaphor for showing one's ability in one's field of expertise, or being blessed with favorable conditions and making good progress in one's work, and is said to be a good omen.

*This is a very satisfying event where you can enjoy sake from each brewery and get an extra boar cup or glass at each brewery!
After a light trekking at Kita-Yokodake, we went a little further and took our seniors with us.
Everyone was very satisfied. Every sake brewery had its own characteristics and each was very tasty.
I bought some gifts, such as this sake made from Honkin gold, which is hard to find in Tokyo.
The explanation given at the store was that the sweetness is followed by a slight bitterness that quickly disappears, and it was absolutely true.
I wondered what the bitterness of sake was like. I wondered what the bitterness of sake was like.
Yesterday was a tough day with traffic jams and such, but everyone had a great time and it was a very fulfilling day.
I was a day late myself, but I was able to enjoy some delicious sake!
But I wish I could have had a drink at the brewery, too!

I was there a few years ago and the sake from Honkin made a great impression on me 😋.

Dosai is my favorite brand.
But this is the first time for me to have a draft sake.
I've been wanting to get some and haven't been able to find it at the right time, but I finally got to meet you.
I was busy this week, so let's drink! I was looking forward to the Friday when I was going to drink it.
I took a sip and thought it was the same as the usual red sake. I thought it would be the same as the usual red Doshin, but it was still a fresh sake. It had a freshness to it.
I thought it could be a little sweeter, but in my opinion, Doshai is the best food sake.
It is reasonably priced and always really tasty.
I had it with squid pancake and tuna sashimi.

Over the consecutive holidays, I participated in the Kyoho no Oka Marathon and went to Yamanashi.
Usually, I go to Katsunuma for grape picking and wine, but this year, I extended my visit to Yamanashi Meiken, which is famous for Shichiken.
There were many different kinds of sake available, but since I was there, I bought a limited-edition draft sake that can only be tasted at the brewery.
It is one of the seven types of "nama-shu" from junmai-daiginjo to honjozo, named after the "Seven Sages of the Takebayashi Forest.
The first sip reveals a subtle sweetness that is typical of nama-zake, but it flows smoothly down the throat and does not interfere with food. I like it.
We enjoyed it with local Okura (okra) and Abura-age (fried tofu).

I chose this sake because it is a food sake and a sake from an unexplored region.
I thought it might be too sweet for a food sake when I first sipped it, but the sweetness quickly disappeared from my mouth and I was able to drink it without hesitation.
We had it with local grilled scallions, and the sweetness of the sauce did not go well with the scallions.
Kagoshima is known for its shochu (distilled spirit), but there is also this delicious sake.
