Sake Banquet" at Okage Yokocho It was the first time for me to attend such a sake event and I had a great time despite the short time I spent there. There was a unique lively atmosphere with sake drinkers as far as the eye could see 🏮. I was especially impressed by the red-colored lady near the entrance of the venue. I hope to be able to actively participate in such events again! Next time, I'll make a proper schedule... lol The last sake was Nanbu Bijin! I'm so glad I got to see this one for the first time! This is the first time I've seen this one too! Very dry! This was the most intense of all the sakes we drank this time! 😵‍💫 But it's a habitual drinker! It has an excellent sharpness!

Hi v0ru. These events are fun 🤗we've only experienced one small one 😅Mie has a lot of good sake! It must have been a lot of fun to do it in Okage Yokocho👍I'd love to go there with sightseeing 🥹.

Thanks for your comments, Jay & Nobby! This was our first sake event and it was fun! 👍 It was probably a good thing that it was a tourist attraction, too, so it was easy to attract people! It seems to happen a few times a year, so if you get the chance, please do!

Sake Banquet" in Okage Yokocho The road to the venue was so deserted that I wondered if it was really today, but there were still a lot of people around the venue! The sense of unity of the whole festival is quite good 🏮🏮. The sixth one was Hidakami! 🍶. What a first for me, Hidakami! It was dry, light and delicious 👍. It is indeed the ultimate food sake...! It's easy to drink and I think I'm going to be addicted to it!

Sake Banquet" in Okage Yokocho There seemed to be limited menus only for this day at the restaurants around the venue, and there were great smells wafting through the venue. I couldn't go out much with my child because I had to babysit him 😭. The grilled sweetfish looked so delicious! I'll definitely try the limited menu next time I come to this event... The fifth one is Mimuro cedar! It's a very dry, sharp, and fresh wine. It was dry, sharp and fresh! 👍

Sake Banquet" in Okage Yokocho Apparently there was also a sake tasting contest. I'm not sure, but I wanted to participate as a commemorative event! LOL! The fourth bottle was Jikin! 🍶 This was the main attraction of the event! I've been waiting for this! I've been waiting for this "moment"! I can get it at my local liquor store, but not often, so I have to drink it when I can! ✨️ And it's delicious! Sour and fruity as always, very satisfying! 🙆‍♀️

Sake Banquet" at Okage Yokocho There was a lottery and I won the 3rd prize! 🥳🥳🥳. I'm so lucky! It was worth coming here just for this! We were given a bottle of Sake and it was Amayadori! The third bottle was a bottle of Takihama! The third bottle was Takihitama! I found out later that it was a PB brand of Morishita's sake called "Crystal"! It had a fruity mouthfeel with a bitter aftertaste! It had a delicious flavor and was typical of Mie's local sake! I was watching the announcement of the raffle while drinking it.

Sake Banquet" at Okage Yokocho I thought I could start drinking at 5:00 p.m., but apparently they started serving alcohol at 3:00 p.m., so I was late. I came at 18:00 because I had something to do, and it turned out to be a short festival with only one hour before the banquet ended at 19:00. I was so sorry 😭 The second bottle was a Saku! 🍶. I came late and there was only one more kind left 😭. However! It was an IMPRESSION that I've been curious about for a long time ✋. It was so delicious with a good balance of sourness, sweetness, and umami! This is seriously fire-roasted ????? Too good, fresh. Amazing.

I went to a sake party at Okage Yokocho in Ise City, Mie! 🍶🍶🎉 It was a moderately successful event, with sake breweries from other prefectures participating in Mie's local sake! I will post a few items from now on, but since I only drank a little at a time, I can't write a vivid review and it will be short 💦, sorry... First up was a special junmai sake from Tamitsu! 🍶. It was fruity as soon as it entered the mouth, with a lingering umami flavor that swelled up and took on the typical Tamitsu flavor! We got off to a good start with this sake right after we arrived 👍.

I've had many of Sentori's seasonal sake, but I haven't been able to get my hands on their regular sake, and Jay & Nobby had encouraged me to buy the "Modern Sentori Mukun" in their comments! 🍶. I bought it because I heard that Sentori is going to renew their brand name soon and I might lose my current brand name... and that was also a deciding factor for me. ✌️ A little bit gassy! It has a strong acidity! The first taste is very strong, then the sourness is gone and the grapefruit flavor comes out. The taste itself is dilute, and the aftertaste is not so strong. The taste itself is dilute and overflows with Senkou-ness in a way that leaves no aftertaste 💦💦. As the word "innocent" suggests, the taste is free of clutter. ✨️ The initial sourness peaks and then goes away with the flavor, it was like a roller coaster ride lol 🎢. The taste was so instantaneous that my hand never stopped. Don't stop..." 💃. And this fresh and clear taste is very typical of Sentori...! I can only say that a standard sake of this quality is quintessential!

Jay & Nobby, thank you for every comment! The standard sake is still delicious! So much so that it's comparable to serving it as a limited edition sake! 😳 I hope to drink a lot of the current sake before it gets a facelift👍.

I've always wanted to drink "Niidashi Zenshu"! This time, melon! 🍈. I could not forget the sake I drank when I was in Yokohama for work, and I had been looking for a chance to buy it. However, I never had a chance to buy it, because only when I went to a nearby liquor store, they didn't have it, but finally I was able to buy it! (The type was different, but...). Let's drink it! I'll drink it 🍶. It has a gaseous feeling. The aroma is already melon! I can already tell it's my favorite! I can already tell it's my favorite because of the sourness mixed in. First of all, the acidity is as expected! The acidity is a little strong and refreshing, but it also enhances the taste. The taste is also melon! LOL! The flavor and sweetness are well balanced and output the fruity taste of melon! 🍈🍈🍈 It is very fruity! But with the gassy acidity, it's fresh and not sticky sweetness...beginners can get hooked from this drink 👏👏. I don't eat that much fruit melon, but I think I'm going to like it lol I will buy it again when I see other ones because it's so delicious! 🥰 I want to drink Tarusake at home this time, calmly 🍶.

The annual "Jikin Sake Mirai"! It just happened to be available, so I bought it: ✨️ If someone told me that it only comes out once a year, I would have bought it, right? I can't drink Jikin that often either, so I chewed it up and drank it! I'll be back soon 🍶. Slightly carbonated The first thing that jumps out at you is the sourness! It is not a strong acidity but a smooth acidity that approaches the taste that comes later. I have often tasted many strong acidic wines, but this weak acidity, which is only an accent, is new to me ✨. The flavor slowly emerged and then turned to sweetness! I can't think of anything that comes close to that unique sweetness 😂. Ohhhh it's so good lol! It tastes like you're living in the moment(?) I found myself reducing it by 2/3 in one day lol. Of all the metaphysics I've had, this is my favorite! 👍

Sake🍶 made by Ota Sake Brewery (Hanzo and other sake breweries), given to me by my wife's sister. It seems to be part of a project to revitalize the town of Kumano in Mie Prefecture by inviting volunteers from the paddy field farming community to participate in the project and Ota Sake Brewery will turn it into sake. The aroma is very gorgeous. ✨️ When you sip it, sweetness and umami attack you at the same time. The sweetness gradually fades away and the bitterness fades in to enhance the umami! The bitter taste fades in instead, and the umami is enhanced by the sweetness. Personally, I would have liked a little more lingering flavor 🤔. For a Junmai Daiginjo, it had a classic taste with less sweetness! It was the kind of sake that would stand out more with seafood from Mie when served as a side dish. ☺️ Love your hometown 😘.

Daimine Dewa Sanzan recommended by a local liquor store on the day it arrived! I was originally thinking of buying a bottle of Omine sake, so it was a good thing I did. I had only had a bottle of Omine in the summer, but I liked it so much, including the design and taste, that I was looking for an opportunity to buy a bottle of their regular sake! The aroma is gorgeous with a hint of sourness. The aroma is gorgeous, with a hint of sourness. The first thing I noticed was the calm sweetness. The sweetness is smooth and umami can also be felt! After the sweetness, the acidity gradually spreads, and the overall taste is fresh! The description on the internet said that the flavor was reminiscent of grapefruit. No. Does it taste like pineapple? I don't know 🍍. I haven't had any grapefruit lately so I'm a little unsure lol. I can feel the sweetness and umami in the beginning and the sourness in the latter half to finish fresh...it was a good combination of the two! No, it's ummae. 〜〜〜〜! I'm happy to see a glimpse of the Omine character as well 🙏. The design is also great, simple and stylishly put together. I hope to visit that stylish brewery someday. ☺️

Buy Sentori Sakura! 🍶 After all, when it comes to seasonal sake, it's Sentori! I couldn't drink only the autumn red dragonfly, but it was easy to drink and delicious in both summer and winter! I wonder what it tastes like in spring...! Slightly carbonated The acidity is so strong that it seems to penetrate through! I've had a lot of Sentori sake, but this is by far the most acidic! I have had many sakes from SENKYO, but this one has the strongest acidity by far! After the acidity passes through the nose, there is a slight peachy sweetness... 🍑. The bitterness at the end sets the whole thing in place! Overall, a gorgeous, refreshing, light and easy to drink sake 🍶. Again, it was delicious. ✨️ Sengoku is still a very expensive sake. It was as easy to drink as Kabutomushi, and I often found myself falling asleep after drinking it in gulps. The cherry blossoms are about to end, but I would like to take a bottle of spring sake with me at least once to see the cherry blossoms... For some reason I couldn't buy Akatombo, but I would like to buy and drink it this year!

This time our local sake "Hanzo" 🍶. I bought it because I also wanted to buy one of the local spring sakes. How does it taste? The aroma is mellow and full of hidden flavor. It is a classic type of sake. It is dry for a junmai daiginjo. It has a dry taste with a hint of sweetness, but the rest of the taste is dry and crisp with the umami of the rice! It seems to be excellent as a food sake 👏. I heard somewhere that most spring sake is low-alcohol, sour and light, but this one is all the other way around. 😅 The only label looks like a spring sake... lol. It's a delicious sake, so I'm sure it will make your hanami dishes stand out 🌸

First spring sake! I'll have a Sakura nigori from Sanzen Sakura 🍶. The label is the deciding factor! Cute and very spring-like illustration. I've bought many other spring sake, but this one takes the cake in terms of design alone! The bottle is still nigori, so it's carbonated. I didn't have a corkscrew, so I had to keep squeezing the cap to get to the drinking part 😅😅. However, the freshly-opened sizzle can only be experienced with nigori! Personally, the carbonation was the strongest I've ever had 🫧. Tastes like yogurt 🐮. The sweetness is relatively low, and the bitterness of the nigori is more noticeable. I felt that if the acidity was more noticeable, the yogurt flavor might have been stronger. The alcohol content is 8%. Low! It tastes light and is low in alcohol, so it is very easy to drink! I would recommend it to beginners. I've only had nigori sake that was quite silky, but I like the mellow taste of this one! Maybe this one is more to my liking 🤔. Some days the weather is nice, but it's been cold and rainy... the season hasn't caught up with the sake 😭 Harusame mo yafu no oshunjanaika 🎵

I was wondering what to buy at the liquor store and the clerk recommended Machida Sake Brewery. I was looking for a seasonal spring sake, but I also bought a lot of spring sake, so I bought this as a color supplement! So, let's drink 🍶. Slightly carbonated. The aroma is very floral. You can tell even before you drink it. Definitely a tasty one! 🤓 Sweetness comes first! Mild sweetness with a late arrival of acidity✋. The round sweetness and refreshing sourness combine to give it a rummy taste! The gas also helps to improve the perfection 💪. The gas also helps to make it more complete ! Very tasty lol! The waiter recommended this one.... This was a gorgeous and light sake! It's totally fine even without any snacks! It hit my taste buds perfectly (my strike zone is wide), and I gobbled it up... lol... Thank you very much for the food 🙏.

It's been a little while since the last time.... I was down with a bit of a cold, so it was inevitable. After such an illness, I chose "Purple Space". I bought it just for the atmosphere of the bottle, but let's see how it turns out. ...... The aroma is subdued, but the fragrance is gorgeously sweet. It is mild on the palate, with just the right amount of sweetness. ☺️ The taste reminds me of strawberry! It has both umami and bitterness, but they marry and create a strawberry flavor...! I've never tasted anything like this before! 🍓 I've never tasted anything like this 🍓... The flavor is quite long lasting! It has the potential to be the star of the show when served alongside food 💪. It was just a little sticky sweet. I thought it was the stickiness from trying to replicate the sweetness of strawberries 🤔. Personally, I was overwhelmed by the flavor, so the stickiness didn't bother me that much. Well, I have never experienced such a taste before..! Rarirararan🎶. Sake can reproduce any fruit lol. Yeah, it's delicious! () I have yet to taste the pineapple flavor of my favorite fruit, so if I can find the brand, I'll go for it and buy it 💪.

I bought a bottle of Mimuro Cedar that I had always wanted to drink! 🍶. I've also had Kaze no Mori from the same prefecture and it was delicious ✨️ but it didn't suit me a bit, so I'm not sure about this one: ...... It's a modern style. Modern, which is clear from the aroma after opening the bottle. It has a slight acidity. It has a hidden umami taste with a muscat-like sweetness...! I'm a very sweet person among modern types, but I think I could still taste the umami in this one 💪☺️ The alcohol taste is not strong and the aftertaste is clean! The sweetness is not that sticky and it is easy to drink! Dangerous! Yoshi! (Cat in the field) Very fruity and easy to drink! 😊 I don't really like too much sweetness, but I could taste the umami flavor and it was delicious! I would like to pick up Sake Mirai, which is solely rumored to be delicious, if I see it again✋.

Buy a bottle of new Akabu sake 🍶. I have always been curious about this brand since it is one of the top-ranked brands in Japan! Spring is coming, so I couldn't help but pick up the Aizan with the spring-like pink label 🌸. I was surprised to see the pink label of Aizan. It has a sweetness like muscat. The soft taste of Aizan brings out the flavor of the sake without being too sweet. The bitterness also follows, making it less sweet and more crisp. ☺️ The flavor has a slight acidity at the end, and the overall freshness makes it easy to drink! 🍶😎🍶🍶 The logo is so cool I even took a picture of the cork lol. It was just the day of the Doll's Festival (the day after the Doll's Day), so we toasted with Chirashi Sushi we had bought 🍣ᔆᵘᙚᑋⁱ. It's fruity, but it also has a dry and balanced impression that makes it easy to drink! I've had a few of these balanced sakes, but I thought this one was quite high quality👍. I'll try the standard sake next time!

This sake was also given to me by a relative🍶. I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not, but I'm sure it's a good idea. I've heard that it's a local brand, but in recent years, it has been distributed again! I'm very happy 👏. I heard that Aizu Miyazumi is distributed nationwide, but in recent years, it seems to be distributed again. I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not. The aroma is similar to that of Muscat. The taste is very dry and then the rice is very tasty. The first time I had a chance to taste it, I was surprised to find that it was so dry! Hot! I'm sorry, I wrote "Atamori" in the bottle. The Cherry Blossom is a very good wine, but it's also very good. The best thing is that the price is very reasonable! I'm not sure if I like it or not, but I personally prefer Kakuraku! ☺️
