February 20 was our wedding anniversary and also the day of our biannual health checkup this year✨.
My wife and I will go out to dinner again, but first we celebrated the day with a bouquet of flowers and her favorite Japanese sweets 🎁!
I can't believe that it's already been a year 😁Let's have a drink to commemorate the occasion 🍶.
Shiratakesen Junmai Sharikuchi Shinkoku Nama
I got hooked on Hakugakusen from the old "Hakugakusen Limited Edition", but it was this "Shinkoku Nama" that got me even further into the swamp.
[The gulping cup.]
The aroma of rice with a hint of sourness, the feeling of gas on the tip of the tongue, the fresh and soft umami, and the soft and gentle aftertaste, and the aroma of rice that rises softly.
[Mokkiri.]
A cool, full rice aroma, a slight gassy feeling on the palate, and a fresh, soft, gentle umami and acidity that finishes with a refreshingly soft and gentle aftertaste.
A perfect fusion of the softness of nama-shu, the umami of junmai dry sake, and the acidity typical of "Hakugakusen"!
I knew this was going to be good!
As we didn't have any fish to get drunk on, we had grilled beef ribs on a ceramic plate!
The sweet fat of the beef, the soft umami mouthfeel, and the sharpness and lingering acidity go well together 🥰.
The fourth one is "Kamo Nanban" at Kyoya, a handmade soba restaurant with stone-ground noodles 🦆🍜, a seasonal treat.
Since it was the end of my medical checkup, I splurged on lunch this day 🥰.
In honor of reaching 500 check-ins, the "Hakugakusen" will be another ✨.
Happy wedding anniversary, Gyve 🍾Your medical checkup is over and you can drink without any worries 🤗It looks delicious even if it's not the Hakudakesen 😋For your information, my cholesterol was over the limit at my tri-monthly checkup😓.
Happy wedding anniversary, Jive 🎉㊗️
The bouquet gift 💐 is wonderful ❣️💓
I also still remember the impression I had when I strongly felt "Sake is made from rice" at Hakudakesen Kyokurugi❗️
I'm ready to drink it again 😃.
Jive 💖Happy wedding anniversary 🎉㊗️Hakugakusen to decorate your precious anniversary, I feel Jive's love for you ‼️ I also want to drink it after a long time! I wish I could find a true red raw 😍.
Happy wedding anniversary, Jive 🎉!
It's February and the day before Mr. Jaive's for me too.
Is it some kind of anniversary when Mr. Jaive has a Hakudakesen? I think, "What's the occasion?
That's how much you love Shiratakesen and your wife 😊.
Hi Jive, good evening.
Happy wedding anniversary🎉!
It's a very emotional and important day for you as a couple ✨.
And of course, the celebratory sake is Hakugakuzen! That's a quintessential choice: ⤴️
I'd like to drink it someday!
Good evening, Mr. Jive😄.
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary 💒🎊🎉㊗️ the more numbers you add, the more you realize that the bond between you and your wife grows stronger 🥰Mr. Jive, you never forget to give a gift without fail, that's great💕Long and happy days to you ❣️
Hi Jayve, good evening 🌃😀.
Happy wedding anniversary 🎉Happy anniversary 🎉After my health checkup, I had a bottle of Hakudakesen crimson 😊Shaa's special sake 🍶´- isn't it👍I've had it once myself and it is a delicious drink 🥳.
Good evening, Mr. Jive😄.
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary: ㊗️
I haven't found the real crimson yet, but your review makes me want to drink it more and more 🤤.
Good evening Gyve 🍶.
I am also a biannual checkup group 😌.
This year I was able to buy a bottle of crimson raw sake and I'm looking forward to savoring it 😊.
Drinking at Fushimi Underground Mall until the bus leaves 🤣
[After leaving Wazake Tachiton Myoukyou, we went to Yoigetsuya near the subway entrance for another drink 🍶.
I saw "Hana-yoso" as today's hidden sake, so I ordered it immediately✨.
Hanahayokyu Ginpu Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu.
It's been a long time since I've had "Hanahyokyu" 🥰!
Fruity and floral sweet aroma from the moment it is poured, sweet and delicious flavor that flows into the body as if it permeates the mouth, and floral sweet and pleasantly long aftertaste!
A simply delicious bottle that leaves no other comment but "delicious, delicious"!
Served with [Sakura Yukke] and [Ham Katsu] ✨.
I was surprised at the taste of the "Kahayo Yoku Ginpu" that was brought by Usagoten at a past off-line meeting.
We slept until we arrived at the bus on the way back 🤣.
Good morning, Mr. Jive!
Last but not least, the hidden sake Hana-yosu was a great way to end the trip: ⤴️
I want to try it at least once in my life ✨.
I hope you had a great time drinking this time too 💤.
Good morning Mr. Jive!
Thank you for a fun sake trip and stocking up on sake 😊 Great to finish off the day with a hana yang 👌.
I remember drinking the same one at the offline meeting and it was delicious😊.
Looking forward to your sake posts 😊
Good morning, Gyve 😃.
I love ❗️ good food and good drinks at unknown places on the road 😆.
I did a day drinking trip myself the other day and Gyve's post made me want to go back 🤣.
Good morning, Jive 😃.
It's amazing that you can write so much on the same day of a full bus🚌transportation drinking activity ‼️ 😳Bang up live is great👍
Hi ma-ki-chan!
I found a store that has drunken sake in the last 🤣.
I'm not sure if you can find it in Kinki and Chubu area 😅.
My ultimate goal is to drink "Huayouyasu" at home ✨.
Hi Ao-chan!
I'm the kind of person who is curious to see what they have on tap when the sign says "Hidden Sake Available" 🤣.
The price was a bit steep, but I couldn't help but ask for it considering how delicious it was 🥰.
Hi Hiro!
It's fun to go out drinking away from where you usually live 🥰.
I love to go out and enjoy the local sake, snacks and characteristics of the area ✨.
When you feel like going, it's your cue to go 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
We had a little bit of trouble drinking beer on the bus, but other than that, it was a very satisfying drinking experience ✨.
I'm trying to keep track of the places we drank as much as possible, so I'm trying to post in real time 🤣.
Thanks for the travel sake live report, Jive 😊.
You had a lot of drinks 😁 each of them delicious drinks & food, I can see how fulfilling it was ✨You had a good one at the end 😉.
Good morning, Pon, ☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Sorry for the late reply 🙇.
I found a place I was interested in with a selection of Shinshu sake, but it was far from downtown so I gave it up this time 😅.
I'm very happy to finally drink "Hana-yoku" ✨.
[Another round of drinks at the Japanese Sake Tachiton Myojin.
Motobun Junmai Ginjo Tsukishita Bijin Yeast
Floral aroma is hard to describe.
Aroma and lingering image a little like tequila 🤔.
[After leaving Daijin, I went to the Fushimi Underground Shopping Center.
We explored the underground shopping mall, which is said to be the oldest in Nagoya, and had a drink at one of the stores we entered.
Miyoshikiku Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Shu Orikagarami Omachi
The aroma is serene and sweet, and the mouthfeel is moist with a sweet umami flavor that finishes with a lingering sweetness of rice, typical of orikarami.
I think I should have compared it with "Aizan" that was with the bottle 🤔.
Good evening, Mr. Jive😄.
I see you are enjoying your drinks in Nagoya ❗️ on the highway bus 🚌 ☺️ The restaurant looks nice and the label of this Miyoshikiku is very nice 💓 The atmosphere matches with the restaurant. Just the atmosphere looks delicious😋.
Hi HinaHanaMama!
I usually go by car, but this time I decided to take the express bus because I wanted to do some drinking 😁.
I took this photo close to the subject to avoid the reflection of other passengers, so it may not be what you imagine.
Hi kan!
I think I took a little too many beautiful shots 😅.
It doesn't show the atmosphere of Nagoya's oldest underground shopping center, so it will be a gap for those who don't know it 🤣.
[The next drink I had was a brand of cold sake that I had not yet drunk.
Kamotsuru Ginjo Murasaki.
Fruity and sweet rice aroma, fresh and gentle on the palate with a clean sweet umami, followed by a clean and sweet aftertaste.
The third picture shows the heating area at the restaurant and a four-door barrel of "Kamotsuru Barrel Sake".
The fourth picture is the last dish [oyster gratin] 🥄.
Hi Jive, good evening😊.
Kamikaku, they sell it at Bic Camera, but there are so many varieties that I'm not sure which one is the best 😅.
I heard it's fruity so I'll try it when I see it 😁.
Good evening Mr. Jive 🍶.
When I went to Nagoya last fall, I didn't go to Daijin-san because I heard they didn't have any sake from Aichi, but that oyster gratin looks delicious 😊.
Hello bouken!
This was my first time drinking this brand and I thought the quality of the sake was suitable for a land with abundant water 😁.
Please give it a try ✨
Hi, Matsuchiyo-san!
[I was surprised to find out that the only sake from Aichi is "Kamotsuru", which is a limited-time-only sake 😅.
However, the atmosphere and interesting system of the izakaya is worth experiencing ✨ if you visit Nagoya again!
[Leaving Sakatsuya, I went to the former Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in Kanayama to see the "Giant Robots of Japan" exhibition.
From there, we went on a tour of liquor stores, including the main store of Sake Sendo Horiichi, and ended up at one of Nagoya's most famous izakayas (Japanese-style pubs).
[Oijin Honten, a restaurant that is mentioned in Mr. Kazuhiko Ota's books as one of the most famous izakayas in Nagoya.
Of course, we had a glass of this izakaya.
Kamotsuru Barrel Sake
[This sake is said to be limited edition and is served hot.
The aroma of rice flavor rises softly, and the mouthfeel is gentle and delicious, with the aroma of hinoki cypress, which is typical of barrel sake, and then it finishes with a lingering wooden aroma that brings out the best.
The four-ton barrels were emptied in one night, and the sake is so popular that it is shipped in from Hiroshima every day!
The warming staff warms the sake at the perfect time, which is also very intoxicating!
The octopus stew was served with the delicious flavor of octopus and the dashi broth, which made the sake go down endlessly!
The entrée is served buffet style, with freshly prepared dishes being served as they are served.
The fun of going to get your own entrée and finding the right one for your sake is truly a wonderland for sake drinkers 🎢!
Good evening, Mr. Jaive 😃.
Yes, speaking of Mr. Gyve, it was a live check-in drinking terror 🤣.
I've never heard of this place before, but it's an awesome place just by looking at their website 🍶.
I'd love to visit ☺️, it's like a drinker's paradise 😊.
Good evening, Mr. Gyves.
I am proud to say that I have been to my fair share of izakayas that are considered great restaurants, but there has never been one where I felt that everyone was really enjoying their drinks with a great deal of enthusiasm. A true great restaurant ✨
Hi Aladdin!
In Mr. Kazuhiko Ota's book, he wrote that "Daijin Honten" is the pinnacle of izakaya (Japanese style pub).
The fact that the restaurant opens at 3:45 p.m. and is almost fully booked right away is a testament to its popularity!
Hello Jurian!
Everyone is enjoying their drinks at their own pace and with the people around them without making too much noise, that bright and bustling atmosphere is really cozy and intoxicating 🥰.
You can't miss this place when you come to Nagoya ✨.
Hi Jive 🐦.
I can't tell you how many times I've seen you on Ota's show 🥹I'm really jealous of you😊I'm amazed you were able to get in 😳👍and whatever you put in, it's a great restaurant✨.
I came to Nagoya on a highway bus for the first time in over 20 years✨
Since the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen line, access from Hokuriku to Nagoya has become worse, and the original highway buses have increased their service and expanded their routes, so the estimated time required from my hometown is about the same as 30 minutes, and the highway bus is half the price.
After getting off at Nagoya station, I went to Takashimaya, Mitsukoshi, Nagoya IMADEYA, and then to Sakae, the center of Nagoya.
Kuromatsu Shiraga Honjozo Nama-Stored Sake
The aroma is mellow and mildly alky, with a hint of sweetness and a clean, crisp flavor that fades away as soon as you taste it.
The restaurant recommends [Tuna Sashimi] 🐟️
The fresh, gentle and refreshing flavor that does not interfere with the deliciousness of the tuna goes well with the intoxicating taste.
This restaurant was featured on the official website of Sapporo Lager Beer [Akaboshi Tanteidan], so in a sense, it is a "sacred place for Akaboshi." If you dip the restaurant's recommended [shrimp cutlet] in the sauce of [beef tendon baked on the bank], you will have an original Nagoya-meshi that is not on the menu 🤣.
Now, let's see how far we can go with real-time updates 😁.
Hi Jive 😀
We visited Atsuta Shrine in Nagoya first thing in the morning and then started our sake brewery tour in Mie, so we must have been on the wrong thread 🤣.
We really wanted to stop by a sake shop in Nagoya, but we had to give up because there was no room in the cellar 😅.
Hello, Jive-san!
I see you are in Nagoya this time for sake activities 🎵.
I remember going there before I got into Nagoya Sake ⤴️
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of sake you'll be drinking 😁✨.
Hi Yasubeyesan!
I was actually thinking of having lunch there at first because there is a Chinese restaurant next to Atsuta Jingu that I used to frequent when I was a student 😁.
[I'm sure you'll be able to find a good selection next time ✨.
Hi ma-ki-chan!
I spent my school days in Nagoya, but I didn't have much drinking experience, so I went to an art exhibition that I wanted to see 😁.
Well, I drank a lot this time too 🤣.
Hi, Mr. Noodle Sake King ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
When I was a student, I used to drink at home all the time, but now that I'm a drinker, I find a different charm when I go there 😁.
The red miso culture including miso katsu, eel, kishimen noodles, pasta with starchy sauce, and many other delicious gourmet foods!
This weekend, the temperature rose and the snow melted at once, but the cold wave is expected to hit again next week, so I am dreading the days of shoveling snow again😅.
Well, I'm going to take a moment to reset my mind since the problem that has been bothering me recently has been solved and a new problem has come up and I still feel like I'm going astray 🍶.
Nabeshima Junmai Ginjo Namaishu Gohyakumangoku
Nabeshima" is not easy to drink in my hometown ✨.
I got it at Takakura when I was in Osaka for an offline meeting in November 😁.
[Gugumi-nomi]
The aroma is slightly sweet like a melon, and the sweet umami flavor flows into the mouth smoothly, and the sweet taste lingers after it finishes.
[Mokkiri]
A cool, melon-like sweet aroma, a slightly umami-dominated mouthfeel, then a sweetness that seems to seep in, followed by a long, sweet, pleasant aftertaste.
The melon-like aroma is typical of Nabeshima, and the sweetness that seeps in is delicious.
The second dish was locally caught Spanish Mackerel Sashimi.
The fourth one is "Curry with Pork Knead" by "Curry Gates Dandada" (🍛), a dish that makes your liver work harder.
The spice curry is easy to eat with the sweetness of onions 😋.
Hi Jive 😃
Thank you for your daily struggle with the snow☃️🙇♀️
It sounds like you have a lot more to deal with than that 💦It's important to reset your mind☝️I hope Nabeshima makes you feel better ✨I actually drank a different Nabeshima the same day 🥰....
Hi Jive, hello.
I'm afraid of a cold wave next week 😥.
Take care🍀.
Mr. Kozo I have to go this year too: ⤴️
You look outstandingly delicious again, Nabe-sama 🎵.
I haven't had gohyakumangoku yet and would love to try it 😊.
Hi Gyve 😃.
I hope the cold snap 🥶 is not too bad again after this warm weather 🙏 I hope the snow won't be too bad 🙏 What a great way to work on your liver 🥹!
I'm getting a mouthful of curry 🍛!
Good morning, HinaHanaMama ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
The snow has settled down and I just hope the next cold wave won't be too snowy 🙏.
It's really a headache to have so many troubles going on already, mainly in terms of expenses 🥲💸.
Good morning, ma-ki!
[I heard the lunch at the restaurant space attached to Kozo is delicious, so be sure to check it out ✨.
I was very impressed with the selection of Nabeshima products, as I have never seen such a large selection 🥰.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby!
I have a very strict drinking day and not drinking day, but the spiced curry I eat on my rest day is full of turmeric and soaks my liver 🤣.
I thought they said before that we were having a once-in-a-decade cold snap 💦.
February 12 was the February full moon [snow moon], but thick clouds prevented the moon from showing its face. 🌨️
In such a case, let's have a "moon-viewing drink tonight" 🌕️🍶 while looking at the [moon charm and red seal] I was given last month 😁.
This time, open this bottle and enjoy a glass of sake 🍶.
Tazake Tokubetsu Junmai-shu.
I was interested to know that Mr. Rafa papa drinks several bottles of this sake a year, so I got it this time!
[The gulping sake.]
The aroma is full and sweet, with a melon-like rice aroma, and the mouthfeel is smooth and sweet with a pleasantly long finish that is full and pleasant.
[Tsuki no Oubai]
A full, cool, sweet rice aroma; the mouthfeel is equally refreshing, with a light umami sweetness that quickly fades to a pleasantly long finish; a slight bitterness that is easier to identify than in a gugurami.
Wow~ what a delicious taste!
The balance is such that you will never get tired of it, while still feeling the robust flavor as you drink it.
The owner of the sushi restaurant where I ate at New Year's told me that farmed amberjack is better than wild amberjack because farmed amberjack is less likely to be a hit or miss.
The fourth one is the limited time offer "Karamen with simmered beef and vegetables" (🍜) from No. 8 Ramen, which is one of Hokuriku's most popular ramen dishes.
Karamen, in essence, is like a bowl of fried noodle topped with stewed beef entrails, but I feel that it was a foresight to sell it before fried noodles became popular.
Hi Jive 🐦.
Tasake special pure and yellowtail sashimi is the best 😻I can't decide which one to drink this with 🤔 and I'm a farmed yellowtail sashimi guy too 😁.
I feel Hokuriku when I see the No.8 ramen 😆.
Good evening, Mr. Gyve!
I'm jealous of your Tasake special junmai home drinking ✨.
Fish and sake is the perfect pairing ⤴️
It was my wife who responded to #8 ramen 😁.
Good morning, Gyve 😃.
I've seen Tasake at the liquor store but haven't had much of it 🥲 so I'm going to try it this year 🤗.
I was looking at the moon 🌕 last night and thought it was beautiful 🥹.
Hello, Pon.
[I can see why you are so addicted to this dish.
I also had natural yellowtail sashimi the other day, but it was a little too fatty.
For Hokuriku people, No. 8 is more than just ramen 🤣.
Hi ma-ki-san!
Actually, I had a problem with this "Tasake", my father drank it by mistake and I had to rush to buy it again 😅.
What's that? Is your wife from Hokuriku or Okayama?
Hi Jay & Nobby!
I know some of you have mentioned before in Sake-no-wa that you haven't sold any Tasake recently, but thank goodness there is still plenty of it in stock locally 😁.
[I'm sorry you didn't get to see Snow Moon.
Finally, the snow has settled down and we have a break in the snow. Today, a national holiday, the weather was good during the day for the first time in a long time, and we were expanding the area that had been minimally plowed while the children played in the snow 😁.
Well, last Sunday, my siblings gathered at my parents' house and we all had a potluck party 🍲.
It's been a while since I've had a light drink with my dad, so he brought out some sake for us to share 🍶.
Kurobe Gorge Junmai Ginjo 55.
One of my dad's former business associates now lives in Toyama and sends us sake from Toyama several times a year 🥰.
It has a fruity rice aroma, a mild, clear sweetness and full-bodied taste, and a gently sweet aftertaste.
Personally, I feel that the water quality of the sake is like that of a drunken environment.
I feel the sweetness is similar to "Haneya", maybe it is evidence of the delicious water from the Tateyama mountain range, although the land is far away 🤔.
This time I followed Ane-san's example and took a one-handed shot of a bottle, but if you think about it, I'm grabbing it from above💦.
The third photo was taken when the snowfall was at its peak.
The fourth picture is the result of shoveling snow with my smartwatch set to muscle training, which is about the same load as a slow walk ✨.
Good evening, Mr. Gyve!
I am glad to hear that the snow has stopped ⛄
The snowy landscape with sunshine is beautiful🍀!
I imagine that the sake has a strong rice flavor 😋.
It's a good time to drink with your family 😊.
Hi Gyve 😃
I see you got quite a bit of snow on your roof 😳This snow removal is going to be tough 💦It's not going to be a slow walk 😓I hope the sweet afterglow has soothed you for a while 😚.
Hi, ma-ki-.
I took this picture during a moment of sunshine 📸.
It's beautiful when you look at it like this, but I really don't want to shovel snow anymore this year 🤣 cold weather is forecasted again next week!
Hello Pon, ☀☀☀☀☀☀.
It's hard to tell the border between the rice field next to you and the road 😅.
Not here, but every year there are cars that run into the rice fields, so you need to be very careful when driving on snowy roads✨.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
We got quite a bit of snow, but thank goodness it wasn't enough to have to take the snow off the roof 😁.
When we had the heavy snowfall in 2018, we had to climb the roof to take the snow down or the house would collapse 😅.
I'm sorry for those who couldn't shovel snow and commute smoothly due to heavy snow every day 🙇 I'm also tired from shoveling snow at home and at work.
I myself have been busy shoveling snow at home and at work, and I thought I would do some muscle training and digest the missing time at the gym, but I'm getting tired 😅.
What is it with kids playing in the snow with unlimited physical strength? 🤔
Well, when I came home on Saturday, there was a "takopa" party going on, so I opened a beer and tried one of the takoyaki to enjoy, but the sauce was too sweet 🍯.
I had only children's Otafuku sauce, and I didn't feel like eating it, so I shifted to a light dinner 🌃.
I chose one from the small size I had in stock and had a drink 🍶.
Otters Junmai Junmai Daiginjo 45 Nigori Sparkling.
Milky rice aroma like a lactic acid bacteria drink, refreshing umami that soaks into your body with a firm gaseous taste, sweetness and refreshing sharpness, and finally a melon-like aroma that is typical of Otters and a sweet aftertaste that lingers on the palate.
I heard that 6-pound cheese with olive oil and pepper is delicious, so I tried it!
The flavor of the cheese is accented by the olive oil and pepper, and when you take a sip of the sake, the flavor of the cheese increases, and the richness of the cheese and the milky flavor of the sake even after the sake has finished.
The aftertaste of the cheese and the sake are combined to create a blissful experience that will last for a long time.
Hi Gyve, good evening.
Thanks so much for shoveling the snow⛄
I thought it was a taco-party 💧.
Nigori sparkling is a medium power word ⤴️
It looks delicious 🎵
The small bottle is good for a quick drink 😊.
Good evening, Jive😄.
The snow ☃️ is a big deal. I can't imagine life shoveling snow, but I'm sure it's more tiring than the gym 😅Tacopa, the kids love it 💕Great family 👍You can't go wrong with cheese, olive oil and pepper 👍
Hi Gyve, Good evening 😃😃Thanks for shoveling snow ⛄❗Otafuku sauce, was it too sweet for adults 😅How about Akashiyaki style with soup stock? It might go well with sake 🥰😁.
Hi Jive, good evening 😃.
When I was in Nagano and even in Utsunomiya, shoveling snow ☃️ is almost never necessary 😅Noby and I'm impressed that the power people in snow country are awesome 😌 and the kids even more so ‼️
I think it's quintessential that whatever you get into, you land on alcohol 🤗.
Good evening, ma-ki-san 🌛.
I was sweating a good amount from shoveling snow, so I thought it would be the perfect dinner for beer 😅.
I was glad I stocked up on the beer because I wanted something with a bit of a kick to it ✨
Good evening, HinaHanaMama🌛.
I'm not sure if it's the gym or the snow shoveling... I have a certain amount of training planned, so it's just a matter of doing the numbers, but shoveling snow is mentally taxing because there's no end in sight 💦.
I want to change the source and get my takopari revenge✨.
Good evening, pyonpyon 🌛.
This "Otafuku sauce for one year olds and up" was not salty enough for adults, because it seemed to be less salty and more sweet.
[It's also intoxicating to have Akashiyaki with hot sake.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
It's our fate to live in a snow country, but we can't be too hard on ourselves when we think that all this snowfall will melt and eventually become the material for brewing sake 😁.
Good evening, Gyve 🦉.
It was a big snowstorm there 💦💦Thanks for all your hard work shoveling the snow😊.
I didn't know Otafuku Sauce had this 😳I'll try the cheese next time 😁.
Hi Pon, good evening 🌛.
Not as heavy snowfall that paralyzed the city functions in 2018, but it snowed around 20cm every night and there was no end in sight for snow shoveling 💦.
It's easy and delicious 😁.
Our regular work in Takahama, the westernmost town in Fukui, was successfully completed last weekend 🔚.
The work was not finalized until the very last minute, so it was a rush job with a flurry of plan revisions and preparations, and I'm surprised it took shape.
This time, let's launch alone with sake from the only sake brewery in the Obama area, which includes Takahama Town 🍶.
Wakasa Junmai Ginjo.
[Gulping down the sake.]
The aroma of rice is a little like melon, and the sweetness and umami that flows into the mouth smoothly and smoothly, followed by a shallow, sweet aftertaste.
[Mokkiri]
A faintly sweet rice aroma, a refreshing sweetness, followed by a mineral umami that quickly develops and finishes with a sweet aftertaste and a slightly characteristic rice aroma that escapes through the nose.
Since there was no good fish due to the heavy snowfall, we had motsu nabe (motsu hot pot) using Ippudo's hot pot soup, and sipped sake while watching the snow fall in the garden. ☃️🍶
When Wakasa Fuji, which originally brewed Wakasa, withdrew from the sake brewing business, the current Obama Sake Brewery was established under the slogan "Never run out of local sake".
Recently, the brewery has been brewing ambitious sake, such as the Junmai Daiginjo "Pentagram," a junmai daiginjo that was brewed in reference to the Yin-Yang calendar and is associated with the land that has deep ties to Abe no Seimei.
Hi Jive, good evening.
It's another local love tipple tonight: ⤴️
I also want to support the Obama Sake Brewery's origins ✊‼️
I've only had a few sakes from Fukui Prefecture, mostly Kuroryu, so I'm hoping to encounter many more this year 😊.
Good morning, Jive-san☀️Good morning for your work‼️Motsu-nabe with soup from Ippudo looks delicious😋I had never heard of this place related to the Yin-Yang path, where descendants of Abe no Seimei moved to! Sake rooted in the good old calendar, interesting ‼️💖
Hi Gyve 😃.
It's doubly tiring to work with a job that's so unpredictable and hard to solidify 😓Thanks for your time 😌.
It's nice to launch solo with such a local drink 🍶🤗 I googled it and the pentagram looks cool and seems to be popular!
Good evening, ma-ki-san!
Kuroryu" is still famous, but there are other attractive Fukui sake such as "Bon" and "Hakugakusen" that I'm promoting 😁.
[There is a store in KITTE Osaka that sells a wide variety of Hokuriku sake ✨.
Good evening, Mr. Pekho 🌛.
This year, I got hooked on nabe soup from a famous ramen restaurant, and I even had ramen for shime-no-me 🥰.
The nabe soup from Sumire, a famous miso ramen restaurant in Hokkaido, is my personal favorite ✨.
Good evening, Jay and Nobby 🌛.
I'm not sure how to prepare for the event if I don't know what it's going to be about, so I have to bring in a lot of equipment to the site and find things I won't use 😅.
I would like to drink "Pentagram" once, but the price is too expensive😅😅.
I'm so surprised by all the troubles in my work and private life these days 😲.
I wonder how it can happen all at once 🤣is this the last straw 🤔?
Well, I left work again to go to the Fukui Gokoku Shrine to receive a new moon amulet and red seal, the counterpart to the amulet and red seal I received at the full moon in January ✨.
Let's enjoy a glass of sake while looking at the moon talismans and red seals that we now have for this year 🌛🍶.
Hato Masamune Special Junmai Sake Direct Kumi
Newly available at Sake-no-Ten Hayashi this year ✨Hatsu Hato Chu🍶!
[The first Hato chu🍶.]
The sweet aroma that rises softly in the thin air, the clean umami flavor on the palate, the firm sweetness that passes through the nose, and the sweet aftertaste that lingers on the palate........
[Mokkiri.]
The same light, fluffy sweet aroma and clean umami, but with a stronger sense of sweetness on the nose, followed by a gentle aftertaste and a spicy aftertaste that lingers on the tongue at the end.
I forgot to take a picture 😅I thought I'd have a half-price sashimi as a reward for working on my day off.
The 4th one is [Crab pot soup with rice porridge] 🤔 that I found by chance in a vending machine?
Good morning, Mr. Jive. I like your red seal & good luck charm. Does it change daily according to the phases of the moon? This seems to be a good omen! I pray that the trouble will be resolved safely. I like the Hato Masamune flower snowstorm.
Good morning, Gyve.
It has been a tough day with all the troubles 💧.
I really appreciate your hard work🍀.
Congratulations on your first pigeon chew 🎉.
It looks delicious, both sweet and savory 🎵.
I would love to drink it 😊.
Hi Jive ^_^
I can't believe you've been having trouble at work and in your personal life😭.
That's when you need to drink ✨.
Corn potage is with corn.
Porridge with rice 😁.
Looks good after drinking 😊.
Good morning, Gyve 😃!
I'm glad to hear about your new pigeon 🐦🤗Let's get rid of this bad luck with those main good things ‼️ and some other good things ❗️ like half price sashimi 😁.
Hi Jive 🐦.
It's quintessential that you do moonshine even though you're busy ✨and it's your first drink 🕊️
And the can of porridge, but this lineup is strong 🤣.
Hello WOM ☃.
This is a charm and red seal that is given only on the days of the new moon and full moon 🌛.
It is less than the actual waxing and waning, but the process of new moon to full moon is mysterious to watch 🌘🌗🌖.
Hi, ma-ki-chan ☃.
I've been having a lot of trouble this school year, so I can't relax very much 🤣.
I'm so thankful for liquor stores because I'll be able to buy the sake I've been curious about locally ✨.
Hi Manta ☃
I can't do without drinking anymore! I'm in the mood for a drink 🤣.
I was about to walk past the vending machine at first, but then I saw the word "crab" out of the corner of my eye and my curiosity got the better of me ✨.
I didn't buy it though 😁.
Hello, Matsuchiyo-san ☃.
We had the "Sato Kiki" series in stock, but I decided to drink the regular series first 😁.
I hope they will be in stock consistently in the future ✨
Hi Jay & Nobby ☃.
We've already passed the Lunar New Year, so we've entered the second half of the year, but the rush of the not-so-good things if Nara has exhausted my mind 🤣.
The half-price sashimi was quite magnificent, but I forgot to take a picture ✨.
Hi Pon-chan ☃.
I'd love to try the much talked about "Hato Masamune" nigorigo ✨.
The lineup of hot beverages is quite interesting, but the fact that the simplest cocoa is more expensive than the others 🤣.
This time I reached 500 check-ins 🎉!
I would have liked to open a bottle of "that" brand, but the release schedule for the specs I was aiming for has been delayed and I haven't been able to get it yet, but I will open it as soon as I can get it 🤣.
Well, actually, I had some sake that was given to me before the last time I drank "Morinokumasan", so I will drink this one this time 🍶.
Water Weaving Nemoto Organic Farm
When my wife got sick and asked me what I wanted to eat after her fever broke, I told her "Chicken Keema Curry" by Spista Ritemaska. Chicken Keema Curry" by "Spice Theatre Masuka?
The master and I got into a lively conversation about sake, and we were given the rest of the sake that was opened at the beginning of the year as a sacred drink.
The aroma was like old sake, and the mouthfeel had a mild sweetness and sourness, and the nose had an aged aroma similar to that of pickles.
It was kept covered with plastic wrap for a while, so I guess it was still a bit twitchy😅.
[I read the review by Masaaki Sapporo that it has a citrusy aroma and a firm sweetness, so I'd like to drink it right after opening next time 😁.
The 4th picture is the Chettinad Chicken Curry from Spatari, my favorite way to eat it with beer while sweating from the spiciness 🍴Spice fully recharged 🥰.
Good morning 😊
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins ㊗️ I felt like you were drinking more. You've been posting frequently 💦.
It's a commemorative drink, even if it's not the real deal. Taste seems unique too😆.
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins, Jive 🎉🎉!
The combination of spiced curry and craft sake sounds like a great idea 😘 I'd love to try that one, which is a staple 😋, but I haven't had it yet.
Good morning, Jive!
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins 🎉.
Glad your wife is feeling better enough to eat curry✨.
Looking forward to your regular review of the brand 🎵.
Let's enjoy our drinking more and more 😊.
Jive, congratulations on your 500C I. I'm sorry to hear that you had to celebrate with a twisted drink. It's a pity to celebrate with a twisted drink 😢It happens when you drink 500 😢I'm looking forward to the real thing: ‼️
Good morning, Jive😄!
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins 🎊㊗️🎉I look forward to another review of your anniversary drink with your regular brand name 😍Please keep up the fun drinking 🥰 I always find your reviews informative 🥰❣️
Jive, congratulations on your 500 check-in✅㊗️🎉🎉🎉!
I couldn't help but look up karaflower grass as a raw material 😆 Kraft saké is a rare find 😄.
I'm also waiting for your review of the regular brands: ❗️
Congratulations on 500 check-ins, Jive 🎉👏Weaving water, a lovely drink by this name 💕If it's left over from the sacred wine, I'm sure it will still be beneficial to you 😄.
I look forward to reading that customary review 😊.
Congratulations on 500 check-ins, Jive 🎉🎊!
I've never seen this brand before, great name ✨I'm sorry to hear about the hiney 😢.
The curry looks delicious 😻I also like coffee and curry so looking forward to that too 😁.
Congratulations on your 500CI, Jive 🎊㊗️㊗️
The name of your restaurant has a great impact on the curry 😆 Looks delicious 😋.
Hiney but nice 👍We're waiting for that thing you recommended before ‼️? 🤔
Congratulations on 500 check-ins, Jive 🎉㊗️🎊It's a shame that your craft sake is so twitchy, but it's another memorable number 🤣sweating with curry and refueling with beer 🍺 is a good pairing 😋.
Congratulations on 500 check-ins, Gyve 🎉㊗️ there's a sake called Weaving Water 😳 twitchy but great name 😊 good for you and your wife. Curry right after the fever breaks is going to be a gut punch 😆.
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins, Jive! ㊗️🎊🎉🎊㊗️
It's intoxicating to feel the sakéwasan, the sake-enkinko sake 😊.
The literary brand name also attracts me ☺️ the original quality of the sake, but I'm also curious about that regular brand!
Hi Ane ☀☀☀☀.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
I only drink about 2 four-packs a week if I'm not active in the drinking club, so I'm usually at about this rate 🤣.
I'm barely half of the people in the mahjong club 😁.
Hi 10ZG-STQ ☀☀☀.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
The "regular one" was sold at the end of the previous season, but this year it will be released at the end of January or beginning of February 😁.
Hi Takashi ☀☀☀.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
I think this sake was brought in by a customer and the only alcohol served at the restaurant was beer💦.
I would recommend the "Shinken" sake in this season!
Hi ma-ki-, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
My wife is such a spice junkie that she requested this [chicken keema] even right after giving birth 🤣.
I regularly work on my liver with spices😁.
Hi Gyve 😃
Congratulations on your 500 in ㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️ 🎉!
I think of "weaving water" as a delicate, clear and alcoholic drink 😌, but it can also be like weaving a rope depending on how it's stored 😆 I'm waiting for your example too 👋.
Hello, Nochi-san ☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
I was wondering if I should post this post, but since I didn't get the real sake anyway, I decided to make it a commemorative twisted sake post 🤣.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 🌛.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
It was an interesting drink and I hope to drink it properly next time 😅.
[Spatari is planning to open a booth at a curry event in Tokyo next year, so if you have the chance, please come ✨.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
I write as I see fit, so I'm just grateful that you read it 😁.
I want to take care of my health until I can toast myself and my kids ✨.
Hi Hiro, good evening 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
I was curious too, so I looked it up and found out it's a plant similar to beer hops 😲.
I'm still curious about the taste right after opening the package 🤔.
Hi Pon, good evening 🌛.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
It was an interesting concept and I'm curious to see the original flavor 🤔.
[I'm sure you can bring your own curry to the party since they also sell it frozen!
Good evening, Kotaro 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
The curry here is really spiced up, so there's a good chance you'll be swamped 🤣.
[We've started selling the "Crimson Nama Sake" but it has different specs ✨.
Good evening, Nemuchi 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
I posted this because I thought it might be a good idea to have this kind of number.
I often eat curry to keep my liver healthy, but I feel like I'm drinking alcohol 🤣.
Good evening, Maru 🌛.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
That was an interesting drink, I want to make sure I get it right 🤔.
I also stocked up on frozen [chicken keema] as a backup, but there were already signs of having eaten it 🤣.
Good evening, Aladdin 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
[I heard that the master of Spatari is also looking for the best sake to go with curry, so we have a lot of discussions about sake when we visit the restaurant ✨.
The master is a big fan of "Mai-bijin" 🤣.
Good evening, Mr. King of Noodle Wine 🌛.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
Curry is a delicious and soothing treat for a liver that has been stressed and damaged by daily work, drinking, and all sorts of other stress 🤣.
Oh, it's not Sapporo beer at this time 💦.
Good evening, Jay & & Nobby 🌛.
Thanks for your comment 🙇.
Was the bran-like aroma the effect of the fermented raw sake that was hinged 🤔?
I'm still curious about the original flavor 💦.
Congratulations on 500 check-ins, Jive! ㊗️🎉Not the usual thing, but spiced curry and craft sake sounds like it would be good for you 😊Is Mai-bijin the Fukui sake that goes well with curry? Hanagaki nigori? And Koikuma-chan?
Hi Hirupeco!
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
[I'm eagerly awaiting the release of "That One" 🤣.
I have a feeling that "Sari" and "Yuki Kirara Ara Shibori" would go pretty well with it ✨.
Good morning Jive 😁.
Congratulations on 500 check-ins 🎉㊗️
I've never seen this drink before 😅 looking forward to your main post, and the curry looks delicious 😍.
Pickle? I think I could drink it with 😅
Good morning, Ao-chan ☀☀☀☀.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
The Indian pickles [achar] [pickled onions with green chili vinegar] that comes with the curry goes well with beer again 🤣.
And of course, it goes well with dry sake✨.
Congratulations on your 500 check-ins, Gyve 🎉🎊"Weaving Water" is a beautiful name ✨I've never seen it before 👀👀Next time I want to taste the freshly opened delights 😊I'm looking forward to your review of the regular thing ❣️ 😉♪
Thanks for your comment, Tsubu-chan 🙇 Sorry I'm late replying💦.
It's a bit [poetic] 😁.
[The work on the "regular thing" seems to be running a little slower than expected at the warehouse, so it should be in your hands by the end of the month 🥰.
Jive, congratulations on your 500 check-ins 🎉.
You've brought all sorts of awesome drinks to your Kiri number 👀.
I wonder if it has aged and turned out like those five girls, 💧.
Hi Yoohee, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Thank you for your comment 🙇.
I couldn't get a guy to open it as a memorial, so I just thought I'd post it anyway 🤣.
I knew I couldn't keep it airtight with plastic wrap 😅.
After three consecutive holidays, my wife's fever has broken and she's feeling better ✨.
We couldn't go to Kyoto for Hatsumode (New Year's visit to Kyoto), but instead, we decided to have a relaxing drink at home and opened this one 🍶.
Eikofuji Morinokuma-san Orikagarami: Myonobu Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu.
I was interested in Morinokuma-san, which I learned of its existence last season, and bought it together with the Kibotsuru at the local liquor store where I bought the Kibotsuru✨.
[I bought it together with the Kihon Tsuru.]
Floral rice aroma, a slight gassy feeling at the mouth, then a penetrating umami, sweetness, mellow and mellow, and a pleasantly lingering, peachy aroma.
[Mokkiri.]
The same floral rice aroma, a tangy gassy mouthfeel, clear umami, and underlying sweetness, followed by a mellow finish and a lingering peachy sweet aroma that leaves the nose.
When mixed with orikomi, the umami becomes even stronger, and a cheese-like aroma that escapes through the nose is added.
Sashimi of Ehime horse mackerel and Tokushima kanpachi (yellowtail) are served with the entrée. 🐟️
Supporting Kumamoto through the connection with Kiyomasa Kato, a sake brewery in Yamagata ✨.
We are still suffering from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan, but we will do what we can to support the recovery of Kumamoto ✨.
The 4th picture is "Shoyu Shiratsuyu" from "Menya Katsuki" because I wanted to eat ramen recently!
Hi Gyve, hi.
I'm really happy for your wife's recovery🍀.
And Morinokuma-san, I often see you on Sake-no-wa, the lingering aroma sounds good and delicious✨.
Eikoufuji is also a very interesting sake 😊.
Good evening, ma-ki🌛.
I'm sorry for your concern 🙇.
I made my daughters miss you too😅.
In recent years, the local liquor store has been focusing on "Eiko-Fuji" and this year is probably the first time they have it in stock 😁.
It's also the first sake rice ✨.
Hi Jive 🐦.
I'm glad your wife's fever is down🥹.
I've never had Orikagarami 🥺I'd love to try it in Mokkiri: ❣️
I was going to buy some this year and forgot all about it 💦I'll see you next year 😊.
Good evening, Pon-chan 🌛.
We have managed to get back to normal at home, but 11 out of 16 children in my eldest daughter's preschool class are absent due to the flu 😲.
No end in sight to the infectious disease season 😵.
Please come back next year ✨
I had a three-day weekend from the 21st of last year in lieu of the New Year's holiday, so I thought I would finally be able to relax and drink, but my wife had a fever😷 and I had to scramble to take care of the kids for three days.
I was so busy taking care of the kids that the three days were over 😫.
I haven't had a proper rest since early last spring 🤣.
My original plan was to go to Kyoto for Hatsumode on the last day, but I cancelled that too!
I'm at my physical and mental limit💦.
So, I opened a bottle on the first day of the holiday and had a drink 🍶.
Yamazan Junmai Daiginjo Kinmon-Nishiki Sanwari Gofubun Unfiltered Genshu.
I opened the drunk one I had left for New Year's!
[I opened a gulping sake.]
The aroma is crisp and tasty like green apple, the mouthfeel is slightly gassy, but the impact of the flavor and the sweetness behind the flavor is so strong that it seems to rise to the top, and the pleasantly long aftertaste and the bitterness on the tongue and sweet aroma through the nose linger at the end.
Trip time: 35 seconds
[Mokkiri]
A clean, clear, sweet rice aroma, a slight gassy mouthfeel, and a clean, penetrating umami sweetness that finishes with a pleasantly long aftertaste and an apple-like aroma that escapes through the nose, and finally a bitterness that is felt at the back of the throat.
Trip time: 25 seconds
For the entrée, I served Akiyoshi's Yakitori with hot water, and I personally think Yamazan goes well with meat 😁.
The fourth one is the much talked about [Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuuX] ✨
Let me show you, what is the performance of the new Gundam made by Studio Color who has made Eva.
After watching it, I can't wait for the TV series to start 🥰.
Good evening, Mr. Jive.
Mrs. Jive, I hope you are feeling better after the New Year's holiday 💧.
I wish you a speedy recovery🍀.
I have not had Yamazan yet, but I am curious about its crisp flavor 🤤.
It was a very nice drink for my tired body 😊.
Mr. Jaive.
Thanks for all your hard work, both physically and mentally 🥹.
Both Yamazan and Akiyoshi's yakitori look delicious!
It's so interesting there, isn't it? Maybe I should go check it out 🤔
Hi Gyve 🐦.
I'm sorry you and your wife have had a hard time 😢I hope you have a stress-relieving vacation soon 🙏.
Nice sake from Yamazan, this one is also soft and sweet 🙂 It was my imagination that it felt sweeter at the event!
Good evening, Gyve 😃.
Apá😫I'm sorry to hear about your wife 😢I hope she gets well soon 🙏Good job on the results, Mr. Jive 😌Please be healed by the topmost mountain san san 🥹 We have a regular san san waiting for you at home😄.
Hi ma-ki.
I went to work with a slight fever 😅.
Luckily, I'm better now, but I'm still tired from all the work I've done 😵.
I'm sure "Yamazan" has expanded its sales channels since the end of the year and is now available in the Kansai region 😁.
Hello, Ofuji-san ☀☀☀☀☀.
As a resident of Fukui Prefecture, I periodically feel like eating [Akiyoshi] 😋.
[I think it's better to watch it without prior knowledge because watching the spoiler movie will reduce the fun by half 😁.
Hello, Matsuchiyo-san ☀☀☀☀☀.
I finally got to open my New Year's sake 😁.
When I eat at Akiyoshi, I'm a takeout person who can combine my favorite beer and sake 🥰.
Hi Pon, ☀☀☀☀.
I wanted to reset here because I have a lot of work in February 😅.
Personally, I felt the flavor was stronger first, but there was also a good amount of sweetness 😁.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
Now I've drunk all the "Yamazan" I bought in the summer 😁.
Now that we've expanded our distribution channels and you don't have to go to Shinshu to buy it, we'd like to replenish it again✨.
Hi, Jun-san!
You can eat hot yakitori at home if you put the take-out yakitori in a pot of boiling water with the yakitori in the bag 😁.
I recommend it because you can pair it with your favorite sake ✨.
I've finished up my public and private schedule, which was a bit of a whirlwind during the New Year's holiday, and I'm taking this week and next week off in lieu of work 💦.
I have a three-day weekend next week, so I'm going to pay my annual visit to Kyoto for the first time and take it easy this week by going to the gym and taking a bath to take care of my body 😁.
Now, I'm going to sweat out the New Year's drinking and have a relaxing evening drink at home after a long time 🍶.
Fukkai Yamadanishiki Nama Sake
I was curious about this sake, so I got it 🥰.
When I opened the bottle, I could smell a sweet aroma similar to that of ramune or cider.
[The sake is a gulp of sake.]
The aroma of sweet rice is calm, and the mouthfeel has a slight gaseous feeling, followed by a quiet, mature sweetness, umami, and a long, pleasant aftertaste.
[Mokkiri]
A cool, refreshing rice aroma, a slight gassy sensation at the tip of the tongue, a subtle sweetness and umami that flows into the body smoothly, and a long, refreshing aftertaste that finishes with a mineral sensation that lingers on the tip of the tongue.
[I heard that the hi-seasoned version has more sweetness, so I'm interested in that as well.
The nigori sake that was sold together with it also looks delicious!
The dish was "yellowtail sashimi from Oita" (🐟️), as fish from Kyushu had just arrived!
Yamaoka House (after all these years) 🍜.
Hi Jive 😃Thank you so much for all your hard work over the New Year's Eve and New Year's Day🙇♀️It went by so fast 😅Isn't it super hard gym time to sweat out all the New Year's drinking⁉️ what kind of menu would that be... (lol) but I'm sure the evening drinks will go down a treat 🥰.
Hi Jive 🌞.
I guess in the end it's all about taste, but I'm wondering if freshly pressed rough sake, pressed and settled raw sake, or fire-aged and settled sake. I wonder if each sake is suited for different purposes 🤔.
Hello, Gyve-san.
It's a nice rest after a hard day's work🍀.
I'm sure it's a good time to have a drink after sweating it out 🍶 on such a day. ⤴️
I'm curious about Fukkai, Oita yellowtail sashimi, and Yamaoka family 😊.
Hi Gyve 😃
I'm so glad that you and Nobby are sweating 💦 at the gym on your finally-getting-off day off! I was so impressed 🤗I see it's your first time at Fukkai ㊗️ I'm going to kill you in a blink of an eye even if I want to have a relaxing drink at home 😚.
Hi Gyve 😃
It's neither too late nor too late to visit the Yamaoka family ‼️ naturally without realizing it 🎵
Is it a special miso 🤤 that looks delicious 🤤 ⁉️
And of course, Fukkai too 😆.
Hi, I'm HinaHanaMama.
I do the same amount of cardio at the gym as I usually do, but due to my body type, after an hour of cardio, there are puddles around my feet 🤣.
I always clean up afterwards and do maintenance on the equipment.
Hi, Matsuchiyo!
I think the topic was fire-roasting, so I'd like to try that one too ✨.
I'd like to try that one too ✨I'm a home drinker, so I can try the "assemblage" technique at home, which Jay and Nobby taught me 🤣.
Hello, Manachie-san!
[I looked up the history of Yamaoka-ya and found out that it originated in Ushiku city 😲.
I'm going to focus on the 8-ban Ramen activity along with Yamaoka-ya since there is no Rasho in my hometown 🤣.
Hi, ma-ki-chan!
I'm a big fan of the Nagasaki Sake, and I'd like to enjoy it as much as possible 🤣
It was delicious and had a Nagasaki style of sake similar to "Hiran" ✨.
If you find a Yamaoka near you, please stop by 🍜.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀.
I'm of a quality that makes me anxious if I don't have a balance between exercise and drinking 😅.
I finally got to drink because my local liquor store started doing business with me after I talked about it on sakewa 😁.
Hello, Mr. Menshuoh ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
I'm wondering which one to go to, since there is a local ramen restaurant [No. 8 Ramen] that is undeniably popular and in a way, goes beyond ramen, but [Yamaokaya] has the advantage of being open 24 hours a day, so I will continue to go there to eat 😋.
January 14 is the first full moon of the year and the first full moon of January [Wolf Moon] 🐺🌕️
The day before, when my family and I gathered at my parents' house for dinner, we saw the almost full moon 🌝 that had begun to rise, so let's have a good tsukimi-zake (sake at the beginning) for another year of delicious tsukimi-zake 😁, so let's have a drink with the sake we chose 🍶.
Kibotsuru Shinshu Junmai
New Sake from "Kibotsuru" that Maru-san, bouken-san and many others have been raving about ✨.
I tried it, but my local liquor store had it in stock and I couldn't resist getting it along with the other sakes 🥰.
This time I'll be having it with the Tsuki no Oubai 😋.
The aroma is full and slightly melon-like with a sweet rice aroma, a slight gasiness that you can't detect unless you focus on the tip of your tongue, a fresh and penetrating sweet umami, a crisp citrusy acidity, and a gentle sweet aftertaste at the end.
Is this junmai sake? I'm sure I'll have to repeat this 🤩and I'd like to pursue other specs as well ✨.
Awesome...no wonder Maru-san is so enthusiastic 😋.
The third one is one that I found the moon starting to climb 📸.
The fourth one is at the Fukui Gokoku Shrine, where I got a red seal and a good luck charm during my lunch break, which are only given on full and new moon days 😁 This time, I got the "watchful moon version".
This year, too, I'm going to have a moon-viewing party at 🌕️🍶.
Hi Gyve 🐦.
I was thinking last night while looking at the beautiful moon 😁.
I couldn't get it because it wasn't in stock, but it's so sweet and delicious that I want to repeat 😻I have to go buy it even if it's far away💦.
Hi Jive, ☀️
I see you've started tsukimi sake again this year ☺️ but the third one is amazing, the moon is so bright 😳🌕🌕.
I've never had Ki Mine Tsuru, but every time I see your review I want to try it 😝✨.
Good evening, Mr. Jive.
It's the start of another year of moonshine 🎵.
Your photos are beautiful ⤴️ and I like the clouds too 🌕️
I've been wondering about Kifotsuru ✨.
It looks delicious in your review 🤤.
I want to drink this sake😊
Good evening, Jive 😃.
The amulet and red seal, awarded only on full and new moon days, is intoxicating 🍶.
I feel romance in the collaboration between the classic label of Kiho Tsuru and the design of the amulet & red seal showing the changing moon age 🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑.
Good morning, Jive 😃.
First tsukimi sake at Hatsuki Mine Tsuru! That's a good start 🤗Kochira is one we would like to drink too 😋.
I was looking at the sky, I like the red shimmering Mars near the beautiful white shining moon again 🥹.
Hi Pon-chan ☀☀☀☀.
We were lucky to see the moon the day before as rain was forecast for the day of the full moon 😁.
It was so good that I kept thinking [I want to drink another bottle of this] while drinking it, so I will try to follow it in the future✨.
Hello, Kotaro!
I'll be chasing the real moon again this year and looking for [sake named after the moon] 😁.
It was a very beautiful moon because it was winter, the air was clean and there were no clouds 🌝.
If you find "Kibotsu Tsuru", please do ✨
Hello, ma-ki-chan!
I'm off to a good start with this year's amulet and red seal, essential for a successful "tsukimi-shu-hajime" (beginning of tsukimi-shu) 🍶🌕️
I've heard rumors about Kibotsuru, but this was just the right taste for my taste buds ✨.
Hi Aladdin!
I have known about this red seal and amulet for several years now, and as a person who enjoys [tsukimi-sake], I am always willing to replace the red seal and amulet every year🤣.
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
The moon and mars are gradually changing their positions as they are trying to overtake and overtake each other 😁.
Astronomical observation in the clear winter air is fun, but it's just too cold 🤣 you need to heat up some hot water ✨.
The cold wave hit, but fortunately it finally snowed in my hometown, and the kids were excited to play in the snow 😁.
Since I started Sake-no-wa, I have had the opportunity to drink many different kinds of sake, and have tried many different tastes.
Now, how do you feel when you drink the sake that got you hooked on sake? 🤔
With that in mind, I opened this bottle of sake with the help of Menshuoh 🍶.
Winter Fireworks Junmai Daiginjo.
I've been drinking sake mainly since I got it at a yakitori restaurant in Wakkanai!
[I've been drinking sake mainly since I got it at a yakitori restaurant in Wakkanai.]
Aroma of mellow rice with a strong alcohol content, clear and clean taste, and a sharp sharp finish, with a deep and slightly long aftertaste of rice sweetness, and finally a 16° strength similar to bitterness that lingers in the throat.
[Mokkiri]
Aroma of mellow rice, a slightly soft mouthfeel with a mineral flavor, and a clean, crisp finish with a cool, refreshing aftertaste.
I wanted to serve with seasonal yellowtail, but there were no good ones, so I served Kampachi Toro (yellowtail toro) and Motsu-nabe (motsu nabe) using Sumire nabe soup that I had in Hokkaido.
The sharpness of the wine is pleasant as it goes well with oily fish and richly flavored entrées.
It's still a delicious and beautiful sake ✨.
Good morning, Jive-san.
Going back to your roots by tasting a variety of sake is also a great sake activity: ⤴️
Wakkanai is another surprising place to visit 😲, but good sake is still good sake 😊.
Hi Gyve 😃
I'm sure you'll have more fun with "Sake no Wa" 🤗I've never seen Mr. Fuyu Hanabi before, but I have a feeling that winter fireworks will sink into your heart 😌.
We are familiar with Hidakami and Senkou because they are our kicks 😋.
Good evening, Mr. Jaive 😃.
So this is the sake that started Mr. Jaive! I am ashamed to say that this is the first sake I have seen 🍶.
I'm curious about the sake that got Mr. Jaive into the sake swamp.
Going back to the origin is also intoxicating ☺️
Hello ma-ki-san!
When I first tried Fuyuhanabi, all I drank was shochu, whiskey and brandy 🥃.
I happened to come across it on a trip and it was delicious, and when I learned what the brewery put into the brand, I was hooked ✨.
Hello Jay & Nobby!
Fuyu Hanabi" is a limited distribution product of Kobayashi Shuzo, the brewer of "Kitano-Nishiki", which is almost exclusively sold in Hokkaido.
The name "Fuyu Hanabi" is also derived from the beauty of fireworks in winter and the seasonal feeling of sake brewing!
Hi Aladdin!
I was originally into beer, then sake, then shochu, then whiskey & brandy, then back to sake after drinking "Winter Fireworks" 😁.
I was curious to see what I would feel when I drank it again ✨
Hello, Mr. King of Noodles and Liquor ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
Thank you for listening to my selfishness this time 🙇.
I will return the favor in another form (food of Fukui) and I will give you "Echizen cape" 🤣.
I'm looking forward to the "raw sake" as it's my first time drinking it myself ✨.
[The annual New Year's party with sukiyaki at Kicchin Usagi.
We opened a bottle of "Shinshu Kamerei Yumemizuho" and opened another bottle of "Shinshu Kamerei Yumemizuho", which is perfect for this time of the year.
Tasake NEW YEAR Bottle 2025 Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu.
Sweet aroma like muscat with high sugar content, a slight gasiness on the palate, a firm sweetness and umami, a long finish, and a gentle lingering aftertaste.
Trip time: 13 seconds
When I asked my friends to drink this one, they all praised it.
We talked about how cool the label was, but what about the pun on the back label that says, "Tasty tazake is heavyweight"? We had a lot of fun with the drunkenness 🤣.
I like this snake illustration because it's cute 🥰.
There is no end to the conversation about where to go with these members this year!
The fourth picture shows that we finished the sukiyaki, so we added the proprietress's recommendation of tempura albacore, which is in season this time of year 💡.
Let's go to KICCHIN-Usagi consistently this year ✨!
Hi, Gyve-san.
Sukiyaki New Year party is good. ⤴️
And I'm jealous of the albacore tempura🎵!
A Newyear bottle of Tasake from Kame-san is the best for such a party ✨.
Delicious sake made for a fun party 😊.
Hi Jive 😃.
This is a perfect one for the New Year party👍I feel the heavy🐍 class is acceptable for the Showa generation😁.
We are going to have sukiyaki this weekend too 🤗
Good morning, ma-ki-san!
The owner, who is not good at sukiyaki, makes an exquisite sukiyaki inspired by [Wadakin] in Mie, which is a luxury once a year 🤣.
Tempura [shirako] in season is also intoxicating, but [matsumae yaki] grilled on kombu [kelp] is also the best!
Good morning, shinsaku3!
I feel the biggest mystery🤔 is how a heavyweight snake has a boar cup, but I want to celebrate the new year with drunken drinks and good food 😁.
