Okayama Sake Shop Paid Tasting (11)
It was the first time for me to taste Daito-🐰, although I live in Kyoto. It is very easy to drink, but the alcohol content is strong and has a punch.

This is a freshly squeezed Hagi no Tsuru.
I could not tell much difference from the Hagi no Tsuru Kawaragawara that I had earlier.
It was my favorite among the many I drank.
Paid tasting 8)
This is Ei-kun from the old sake corner that was stored for a long time by a liquor store, which is not on the tasting list.
Manufactured in 28.10
Is it 2016?
Difficult taste for me 😰 Caramel? Tastes dusty in a bad way 😊.
Paid tasting (7)
I have seen it several times at liquor stores, but this was the first time I drank it.
I looked up the meaning of the name and it means "If you persevere in doing small things, you will eventually achieve great things.
I drank too much and don't remember the taste 🙏.
Jay and Nobby, good evening 😁.
That's exactly right 😰.
The tasting is also a fixed price, so I'm poor like I'm missing out if I don't drink 😱.
I'll take a note 📝 next time 😱
Paid tasting (6)
Is this another brand of Hokosugi?
I have received Hokosugi as a souvenir from a friend who visited Ise Jingu Shrine, but this is the first time I have had this one.
Hi Ao 🐦.
I guess you are still in the middle of it, you are enjoying a lot 😊I wish I could have been there because I saw many brands I have never had 😢The tasting here, don't you get full? 🤣
Good evening, Pon-chan.
I'm still in the middle of it, some I've had twice and some I'm thinking of quitting posting 🤣.
Many of the brands I don't know are punchy.
I'm really hungry😁.
I went there on an empty stomach so I'm dizzy 😵💫
Paid tasting (5)
This is also the first time to drink
It's been a long time since I saw Kasen! I wonder if it was a second-class sake?
It tasted like a sake! It tastes like sake 😁.
Hi Ao-chan 😊
I don't see Kasen very often nowadays! Even in the old days, I don't remember seeing second-grade sake buried under the special-grade sake of the big breweries💦.
Good evening, Robin 😁.
I haven't seen Jiashan in a long time! I really like it.
I heard that old time drinkers like second class more than special class? 😱😱.
Drinking outside 🎵
Paid tasting ④
This is also the first time to see and drink
Hitomebore Iimebore 🌾🍚?
I drank too much and can't remember the taste, but it was fresh!
Tasting is a great value for a little bit of everything 😍.
Drinking outside 🎵
Paid tasting ③.
First drink Kaiun
From the label, I imagined it would be spicy?
Unlike my imagination, it was an easy to drink sake 😊.
Outside drinking 🎵 Paid tasting (2)
This is another special sake not on the tasting list!
I've had Haginotsuru's cat🐱 label series before, but this is my first time!
It tastes like muscat and has just the right amount of cloudiness 👌.
Maybe the best one I've had today 😍.
Drinking outside 🎵
Participating in a paid tasting at a liquor store ①.
First up was a special sake, Hana-yoso, which is not on the tasting list.
Just as well since it's not easy to buy these days😍.
Fruity and delicious 😋.
Good evening, Ao!
The paid tasting sounds like fun 🎵.
And you know a good liquor store to let us drink something that is not on the list: ⤴️
Hahoyo is one of my favorite sakes to try someday 😊.
Good evening, Ao-chan 🌛.
I visited Oyama-san the other day while strolling in Kyoto 😁.
My faint hope that there might be a "Hana-yosu" was dashed, but I gave up after wondering for a while whether to buy the "Ganki Sparkling" 🤣.
Good morning, ma-ki 😃.
It's fun to have a conversation about sake with a stranger 😁.
I think this is the only place in Kyoto that handles hanayoso! If you have a chance 👌
I'm drinking at home 🎵
Went to Fukushima Sake Shop to pick up some sake from ㊙️
My wife was waiting for me😊.
The mysterious masked man of macho in the large sake cup we bought together.
The bottle is full of fine bubbles as soon as you open it!
The aroma is subdued, tingling - sourness - cemedine - bitterness, and the sweetness is subdued?
It's a drink outside 🎶🎵.
I've had reservations since the summer for this annual annual treat 🐡 full course with albacore.
This post is 444 check in!
I thought I'd get a bottle of Jyushiyo because of the "Yon-Yon" connection, but when I looked in the fridge, the Honmaru was sold out and they only had the 2500 yen per bottle 😱.
I decided to go with Jikin 😁.
Jikin is fruity and delicious 😋.
I wanted to drink Hire Sake but I prefer local sake 😊.
Hi, Ao.
Congratulations on your 444 check-in 🎉.
A special saké reserved since the summer, and a milestone with Jikkai (sorry about the Jyushidai) - great ✨!
Sake katsuki is the best way to add flowers to various events 😊.
ma-ki- Hi.
Thank you very much 😊
I'm really enjoying my sake life after finding sake and saké alligator👌.
I'm not a strong drinker by nature, so I drink good sake and drink it in small doses, please keep up the good work 🙇.
Hi Ao 😀
I heard it's a full course meal with albacore 🤣...
And to match it with Jikin's special pure sake....
The ultimate in luxury.
I'm too envious 😀
Hello Yasbay 😃.
Thank you 😊
I enjoy this once a year with my wife, it's a luxury 🙏.
Jikin is hard to buy in Kyoto so I always drink it when I see it in the store 😁.
I think the fridge at Yasbaye's house is more awesome 😍.
Good evening, Ao 😃.
I'd like to share with you my 444 post ㊗️ once a year ‼️ a wonderful memorial 🤗I'd like to share with you just the albacore 😋.
It's nice to have this kind of extravagance as a couple 😉.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😃.
Thank you 😊
There were more albacore than we could eat to share 😭
My wife would be even more excited if she could drink sake too 😰.
Congratulations on your 444 check-in, Ao: 🎉🎉🎉🎉
The fugu course and jigokudo look delicious 😻I like the idea of an annual treat👍✨But then again, it's hard to get reservations💦.
Good morning, Pon 😃.
Thank you 😊
It was delicious but the quantity was too much 😱.
It's like 🈵 until March 😰.
I'm slowly working my way up to 500 check-ins 😁.
Drinking outside 🎶.
It's been a long time since I've had a Tobiroki 😍.
Taste that makes the food taste even better 😁.
Not too sweet, not too spicy, delicious 😋.
It was a little early year end party with my wife.
It's a drink outside 🎶.
Maru-chan, a Motomine Tsuru Ambassador I went to Asano-san for a drink because I was curious about the recent posts by Yasube, Nemuchi, and many others!
For a description of the drinks, see other's posts! 🙏
It tastes somewhat citrusy and delicious😍.
Good evening, Ao-chan 🌒.
I'm so glad you went to Kibo Tsuru! Three kinds of entrée and a drunken feeling 😊.
Please drink the other ones if you see them 😊 ☺️
Good morning, Jay & Nobby☀.
Yes, I know! If you guys are drinking it, I want to drink it 😁.
I can easily find out where to buy it from you guys in Kansai 😁.
Good morning Maru😊
It was a very good drink😊
I would like to drink the other one but it's not sold very often 😱 Please let me know when it's available 🙇.
I'm going out for a drink🎶.
Dear Asano-san 🚶
It's been a while since I've had Bunkajin! It has the delicious taste of rice with a spicy tangy aftertaste 😍.
Good evening, Hirupeco-san 😁.
After seeing what you did this weekend, I also went to Endo - Asano 😁 Endo-san was happy 🙏.
I also got my long awaited Kiho Tsuru at Asano 😍 Bunka Jin was also delicious 👌 The gacha was a hazzle with no upgrades 😭.
I'm going out for a drink🎶.
I finished work early so I went to Higashiyama-ku to see 🍁.
As usual, we went to Udon Endo 🍶.
The owner recommended this 🍶 It was my first time to try this brand.
It is rather dry, but it went well with sashimi 🙏.
I guess Kyoto is at its peak right now with the autumn leaves 😁.
Hi Ao-chan!
[I'm so glad to hear that you had a great time at Udon Endo 😁.
I had it on my list, but this time I decided to start from Omiya to focus on the itinerary ✨.
I'm strolling around the Imperial Palace, and the gradation of autumn leaves in Rakuchu is beautiful before the peak of the season!
Hi Ao-chan 😃
The autumn leaves in Kyoto🍁 are really beautiful🤩.
I am so envious of your sake in such autumn leaves 🍶I feel the Japanese style.
I would love to have a lunchtime drink while watching the autumn leaves in Kyoto too 🥰.
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😁.
I'm from my hometown and it's not easy to go see the autumn leaves 🍁 but I'm here for the 🍶.
I would love to take you and your family on a trip to Kyoto 👌I would love to show you around! I would love to take you on a trip to Kyoto 👌😁.
Good evening, Ponchan 🌆.
The 🍁 was really beautiful!
Higashiyama has many famous 🍁 spots but I like this one 😁 Udon Endo is a must for lunch! The drinks are a bit expensive but the lunch is 🉐.
I drink at home🎶.
I bought this the other day at Imanishi in Nara â
Is it a local brand of Mimuro Sugi?
Honjozo unfiltered draft
Is it the taste of Honjozo? It's sweet and delicious 😋.
Warmed sake and sake with crab 🦀😍!
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
Heated sake in 🦀 is 👌.
But it's a hot pot 🍲😁 with top warming 😁.
I looked in the fridge 👀 and found this sake in Honjozo 😁 Honjozo is personally left over for the next day 😱.
I drink at home🎶.
I bought it after watching YouTube of sakelabo tokyo and wanted to drink it 😁.
I was at a liquor store and there were 3 different kinds lined up and I was torn between modern and classic and decided on this one 😁 😭 for 💰.
I was having a potluck and the humidity in the room clouded up the wine glass 😰.
It's actually clear and tingling and bubbly 🙏👌
Now let's enjoy it!
The aroma is good and the sweetness is preceded by a lactic acidic ~ tingling~ sweetness, yummy! 〜Bitter taste 😍😋.
I'm sorry to say that I have a stupid taste for Senkou, but I think it's that 6 new Fatty 😊.
I want to try the other 2 😁.
Tochigi sake in a row 👌
Hi, Ao 😃
Oh...you went modern! You went modern 🤗Yummy 😋We had the rest last night and we were surprised that after 4 days it lost its sweetness and became retro-like 🫢I think you might have finished it already 😅Try it 👋.
Good morning Jay & Nobby 😊.
I went to the modern day lost 😁.
Is it the 4th day? Yesterday was a rest day so we will enjoy the foot change tomorrow and the day after 😍.
Ao, good evening 🦉.
I see you drank Modern 😊6 new Fatty's 😳I won't have to go to the lottery anymore 😆It's really hard to decide since they all look so good 😁.
Good evening, Ponchan.
I'm lost and confused modern😁.
Probably not quite the same as 6, but 😰.
I'll be there for the draw 🤣.
I'm going to take the liberty of guessing Pon-chan is on standby in the fridge, right? Which one did you buy 😁.
