The first "hiyaoroshi" of this year was Hakusetsu by Konishi Shuzo, a local sake brewery in Itami 😉!
We paired it with steamed clams, squid, and yams. A concerto of delicious flavors, the best marriage 😋👍.

Onihei Hankacho, good sake and the first samma. It's the best holiday 😉. We watched "Onihei Hankacho" with vintage stock from Laughing Shiki in Koka and the best sama fish (the biggest and tallest). I'm glad I was born in Japan 😊.
The sourness and umami of Sho Shiki's fish has a deepened depth to it.

It would be a cup of Mr. Mitsutake's Hokuto Hyakusaiken with a punch of flavor and richness 😉 for a midsummer Tom Yum Kung hot pot of chili peppers, garlic🧄, and pak choi🌿 from Thailand🇹🇭. The battle is as evenly matched as it is competitive. I'm also interested in the Raoh that was next to the sales floor during the summer 😁.

At my usual fish shop.
There was a very plump sweetfish grilled with salt. I grilled it again with a splash of sake and served it with homemade eggplant and sardine salad.
We paired it with a Fushimi sake from ‼︎. Gekkeikan's best nouvelle Gekkeikan, Fushimi's water and flavor go well with summer snacks. Enjoy the best marriage 😋.

I grilled my favorite summer dish, grilled eel (vacuum-packed 😉 ), which I bought on the day after the day of the ox in the dog days. Today's sake is Choyo Fukumusume from the Iwasaki Shuzo brewery in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. It has the acidity I like and the crisp flavor that goes well with the eel. It was a great summer evening 😉👍.

Today, my physical examination was successfully completed 😄. I have eaten nothing but udon and tofu for the past two or three days. Naturally, I stopped drinking yesterday. I had my favorite yakitori (grilled chicken) and sake, Gekkeikan's "Junmai-shu" which is delicious with soda. It's a sake that goes well with summer, just like Fushimi's sake, and it's served with soda! It's going to be a summer staple. ☀️ ...And a recommendation for everyone, pickled zucchini (easy to make) is delicious 😋.

A little summer ☀️ rest as I have a lot of work to do next week and some tests on my body. Kombujime flounder and sushi 🍣 from the best fish shop 🐟 nearby! Summer vegetable salad with mini cucumber🥒 and water eggplant🍆 from Senshu!
A barrel of sake from the Watanabe Sake Brewery in Hida, chilled to a crisp 😋. The marriage of the fresh aroma of cedar and the delicious flavor made for the perfect cool 😉👍.

Happy birthday 🎂, Ninomiya-kun and Kumiko Aso 🎉. And Minoru Suzuki, who was born on the same day, still do your best and stand in the ring. I'll keep standing too 😉. On such a day, I decided to have a hamo suki with a glass of Kenrishi, my father's favorite. It is truly rich and mature. I would call it the espresso of sake 👍.
It's a celebratory sake for a young man who has yet to catch up with his father....

Nama-no-Matsu sake from Okunomatsu in Fukushima.
It is 17% alcohol, but it is easy to drink, and I am drinking it like I am in a pattern of drinking too much 😁. I had sashimi of GASHIRA and Arajiru soup, and sashimi of KENIKA (sword squid) and garlic soy sauce grilled 😋. I don't think there is a better marriage in the world 😉👍.

A summer-only junmai ginjo from Nakashimaya in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
This is the first time I have had Nakashimaya's sake,
I was very impressed by the acidity of Nakashimaya's sake. I loved the acidity of Tatenokawa's sake, but it was just as good. I would like to try many other sake from this brewery. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes acidity.
Today we had Hakata sesame mackerel style sashimi with various kinds of pickled vegetables and dashimaki with chives (both made by the brewer himself 😉 ) and petit kaisendon, the best marriage 😋.

I took it late, my GW (big holiday?). Cleaned out the cooler at noon 😓💦. I only aim to have fun at night! Sashimi of Japanese Spanish mackerel and chicken grunt that I bought at the market in the morning, along with arajiru (soup) of the fish. I'm going to pair it with Kakusei's Suitori Ki from Kesennuma. A clean air conditioner and a ⚾️T🐯vs G🧌 match! We also had a little early summer vacation🌻 with summer sake. ...the fish flavor goes well with this sour and sharp Kesennuma sake 😉👍.

It is a true sake that shows the hard work of our predecessors in the sake making process 😉.
We will pair it with sukiyaki (garlic 🧄mashimashi) made with white miso for a seasonal change of health. ....it was delicious 😋🍶.

Today we went for a walk in the morning to a fish shop in a nearby market. There, we had the nodoguro and sayori filleted for us 😋. We served the fish guts with our homemade soup (Kansai-style white miso soup 😁).
I had a lot of trouble deciding what to pair it with, but I decided to go with a draft sake from Shiga's Laughing Shiki, which is located in a prefecture without a sea 😉.
Great decision! It was the best marriage to complement the expensive fish 🐟.

It was on special sale at a certain department store🐯!
Alps Masamune from Matsumoto, Nagano. I drank it for the first time and it has an excellent acidity that I like👍‼️. The aroma and flavor are both good.
It is the kind of sake that makes me want to go on a trip to find it after a long time. I will definitely repeat this 🤗.
I'll be pairing it with a variety of yakitori (yakitori), homemade avocado, yam, and natto moist salad 😋 that I bought at a department store. It's been a while since I've had a luxurious vacation 🤗.

Tandoori style fried chicken wings 🍗. (homemade🤗)
Thai 🇹🇭 style spinach stir fry (homemade 😉)
Thick-baked egg sandwich🥪.
Strawberry🍓.
They all go well with deep flavors. 😋👍

I bought this Junmai Daiginjo🍶 at a Tohoku fair at a certain supermarket. I usually buy it from Hanaharu in Aizu 😁. Tomorrow will be 14 years since then and I will continue to support them if they can make such delicious products. I would like to visit them at least once 😉. It seems to go well with all kinds of food and tonight I'm having Tom Yam Kung hot pot 🍲😋👍 with cauliflower, pak choi 🌿 and mashimashi.

Rainy day for the Dolls' Festival☔🎎. We opened an adult Hina Izakaya with items bought with an early supermarket discount 🈹😁. The menu was steamed clams with sake. Chicken grilled with yuzu kosho. Choreggi salad with shijimi seaweed. ...and a 30% crab chirashi 😉. I paired it with Kubota nigori sake, not amazake, but nigori sake! Fruity but not cloying and easy to drink, it goes well with the snacks 😋👍.

On a cold 🥶 night like this, I had nigori sake to start the evening. I decided on a nigorizake of Junmai Ginjo by Kamo Nishiki. It is fruity and has the acidity of nigori sake, but it is not too assertive and is very easy to drink 😉👍. We paired it with kimbap, chashu pork with kanzuri on top (why was this a great match for Niigata😁) and steamed clams with sake. The best marriage 😋.

Koyama Honke Brewery's Hamafukutsuru Lupin.
It is made with wine yeast and is very fruity and wine-like. It's more like wine! It has a special wine taste with acidity and sake flavor 🍷.
My own ‼️ "Aqua Pazza with Cod and Shimeji 🍄🟫" is the best marriage 😋. This is it, this 😉.

Junmai Daiginjo Nama Sake from my favorite brewery, Hanaharu in Fukushima 😍. The unique and complex flavor is irresistible 😋. I think that the skill to arrange this complex umami without any spikes is the best sake brewing, regardless of the female toji. 🙇♂️
I will pair it with 🈹Duck nabe🦆 with lots of 🌱seri🈹, which I've been into since the other day😁.
