Today's Collage
The last time we had Junmai sake, so this time we chose Junmai Ginjo.
The aroma smells a little bit like cemedine 😂.
I felt it was dry and refreshing.
I didn't find it too fruity 😅.
It's a nice clear dry taste 😋.
The New Year's party is over and we are back to normal operation today!
The first bottle of "W" was opened 🍶.
The aroma is fruity, but the taste is clean and dry. ⁉️
It's been a long time since I've had a dry, refreshing sake 😅.
I knew it was this one. I'm leaning towards the same type of taste when I learn it, but I can taste and savor many different kinds of sake 😅.
It's so deep...
I'm still getting it while feeling like I still have a lot of training to do 😂.
Back to normal operation today.
Tonight is the standard sake🍶 from "Sairai".
The aroma is fruity but clean. It has a moderate sweetness, but the aftertaste is clean and cleanly erased. It has a crisp aftertaste, so you can drink it as much as you want.
This is another hard-to-find sake for my family, but it was a sake that we wanted even if we had to make a long trip to get it 😋.
The second bottle today was our family's staple sake, Akabu 🍶 This is one of my wife's favorites and we always go out and buy it regularly, but my son was also a fan 😊.
Needless to say, it's just delicious 😋It's a shame you can't get this locally, but it's worth the trip and since we opened another bottle tonight, we have to plan for the next one to come along 😅.
As the New Year's party comes to an end, I'm going to have to check out more and more of your comings and goings in hopes of bringing you some sake that I haven't seen yet this year.
The third New Year's party was "Sono Kangiku" 39🍶.
We took our daughter-in-law for her favorite sake, but unfortunately she was not here tonight, so we opened the bottle with the rest of the party!
It has just the right amount of acidity and a refreshing feeling, and it's also delicious 😋I've had almost nothing but good feedback on the sake I drank, but I wonder if I can sum it up by saying sake is good 😋 ⁉️😅It hasn't been a year since I joined Sakenowa, but I've used your comments as a reference 🙇.
I'll be drunk again tonight thanks to all the good Sake I get to drink 😂😂.
Today's second bottle is the first in the "Kahayo Yoku" series 🍶I was excited to be able to bring this bottle to you as I had a feeling that it would be a difficult brand to obtain.
Fruity and refreshing aftertaste
It was delicious 😂. It's a shame that it's so hard to find 😂.
I wish I could drink it more casually. I'm waiting for the chance to take you out again to savor and drink it. ☺️
The second New Year's banquet was "Shinsei" Viridian 2023🍶.
The party started slowly tonight, probably because of last night's party.
The viridian was well received, but everyone was very restrained and the drinks didn't go very far 😅.
I guess I'll be drinking alone tonight 😅⁉️
Well, the night is long, so let's get on with it 😋 Today's snack is sukiyaki🍲.
At my age, a small amount of good meat with a lot of meat sticks is enough to fill my stomach 🈵.
I'll have a little sake 😅.
But drinking alone is different from drinking with a crowd 😂I think I'll keep it in moderation tonight ☺️
The last sake of the New Year's party was
This is also delicious and I can still taste the fine flavors 😊.
I'm not drunk at all tonight ⁉️
This is because it's a delicious sake⁉️ I don't know how that's possible😅At any rate, it was an enjoyable party with delicious sake and snacks😊.
By the way...after this we moved on to highballs and the party continued😱.
Happy New Year, Mr. Baum 🌅!
I'm sure you had a lot to drink at the beginning of the year 😋It's fun to have everyone together 🤗We also do 🍶→🥃 often and end with 🍵! And then we end it with 🍵!
We look forward to working with you this year: 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️
Jay & Nobby, Good evening😊Happy New Year 😊Happy New Year to all of you ㊗️We all had a great time getting together and drinking 😋😋Thank you for your support this year🙇I look forward to seeing your posts 😊.
The 5th bottle at the party was "Saku", one of my son's favorite brands.
It's been a long time since my daughter brought me a bottle of Saku at the end of the year🍶I'm glad she did😅.
My daughter and son-in-law retired 😴 and the three of us continued the party. This brand is a popular one in our house, so the wife joined the party in earnest. It was so fast, you could say that ⁉️😱The bottle was empty in seconds😱😱.
Saku is still delicious!
After 5 hours had passed, our daughter and her husband went home.
The fourth bottle of the party was "Haneya" (which my eldest daughter took me to at the end of the year) at my request for a little sake flavor.
This is the first time for me to drink this kind of sake.
The aroma is slightly fruity.
The aroma is slightly fruity, and when you take a sip, you can feel the mild and delicious sweetness, but the sweetness quickly disappears with a clean aftertaste.
This is delicious. ❗️The first reaction today: ⤴️
The wife, who has been on a short break, resumed drinking too!
The wife, who had been taking a short break, resumed the party. This is a sake that makes the party more and more exciting 😋.
The third bottle for the New Year's party was "Sansho" (🍶).
This is also a brand that is not available locally, so we opened the bottle.
This one was well received. All of them are good, but 😋.
We slowed down a bit to savor the sake 😋.
But still, they drink a lot!
I was drinking along with them!
The four of us drank the bottle empty in no time...
At this point, the wife takes a short break and the three guys continue the party!
The second bottle was selected while the party was not quite as exciting as the opening of the banquet 🍶 The Ocean series from "Sono Kangiku", a favorite of my daughter-in-law.
The wife was also curious about this one, so we opened the bottle!
It's a little less chuggy, but it's also delicious 😋.
Everyone seems to like this one 😊.
This was good 😊The bottle was empty in seconds and the party went on with calls of "next ❓" 😋.
But what a pace 😱.
I'm going to move on to the next one.......................................
Happy New Year everyone 🎍.
I wish you all the best this year 🙇.
I will put my thoughts on alcohol for the New Year's party to the side for a moment.
We will start off the year 2025 with a "Shinmasa" start 🍶.
We visited my parents' house in the morning and started the party in the evening 😊.
Since we all gathered here, I opened a bottle of rare sake ⁉️... surprisingly, there was a reaction 😂this might be a bad choice😱.
I drank the rest of the sake and my son and daughter-in-law both wanted to move on to the next one😅.
The atmosphere is a bit awkward 💦 as soon as the party starts.
I got a follow up from the wife and emptied the bottle 😊I guess each person's taste is a challenge ❗️😱
Happy New Year, Mr. Baum 🎍.
Thank you for the old year🍀.
I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇🙇.
Ecru is the best ⤴️ I'll be dancing like crazy if you open a bottle of Ecru 😁✨.
Happy New Year to you too, ma-ki-, ㊗️ Thank you very much 🙇 I feel like I'm a little bit part of your group now that you commented on my first year of sakekawa 😅 I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇 I was "delicious" as usual 😋.
Our family's New Year's Eve sake is "Beaumichel" which we prepared for our youngest daughter's return home 😊.
We opened the bottle today to get our youngest daughter into the Sake swamp!
I suggested she take a sip, but she took one sip and flipped the white flag 🏳️😂I wasn't ready for the sake swamp yet💦.
Reluctantly, I drank it all by myself😅.
It's supposed to be easy to drink with low alcohol content 🥲I guess I'm still just a kid 😅
I was going to go out to the store due to our dwindling stock, but my eldest daughter called me 📱 while she was on her end-of-year shopping trip and we decided to avoid going out 📱.
I was going to go out to the store but my eldest daughter contacted me 📱 and took me out 🍶 so I could finish drinking without worrying 😊I'm a very lucky girl 💫.
Good evening, Mr. Baum 😃.
Yes, I think your youngest daughter could enjoy it here 🤔 but let's wait for the right moment 😅Your eldest daughter brought her own sake and you have a very lively family table 😊.
I hope you all have a happy and drunken New Year 😌.
Happy New Year, Mr. Baum 🎍 and a happy new year 🙇.
Beau, it is delicious, isn't it? Your youngest daughter might like it in a little while 😊Happy New Year's Eve to all of you drinking together👍
Pon-chan, good evening😊Happy New Year 🎍I look forward to working with you too 🙇I'm an amateur sake drinker, so I'm enjoying sake a little bit by referring to your posts 😅.
Oh no 😅I emptied the sake 🍶 I had planned to drink until the end of the year in no time and today, I wanted to recommend it to my wife.
I chose "Toyo Bijin" for my wife.
When I opened the bottle and asked her to drink it...
She said, "It's so good!
It's cosy, fruity and just the way she likes it 😊.
Good thing ⤴️
But I'm ahead of schedule and I feel like I can drink tomorrow ⁉️ 😂
Patience❓Come to work❓I'm torn though
Tonight I'm concentrating on good drinks and snacks 😊.
Today is the end of the year vacation, which means that I'm going to start my days full of sake.
However, I haven't been able to open one of the sake bottles I prepared for the New Year (I have to let my sons taste it...).
We still have a few days left, so we opened a bottle of "Akabu" Junmai Ginjo, a favorite of the wife, and brought it with us 🍶.
As I thought, it's a great and stable match. ❤️
It's so good that no matter how many times I drink it, it's always so easy to drink too much 😅.
I'm afraid I'll drink as much as I have and a bottle might be a mistake 🤣.
I'll have to make sure it lasts until the end of the year💦.
Hi Baum 😃
Thank you for your work 😌 Is it good enough for your boys? I'll have to taste it 😁Great parental love...or is it drinking love 🤗
I wonder if I will be able to keep it ⁉️
Today's sake is "Sansho", which I was captivated by the first time I tasted it last time.
This time it's Yamadanishiki🍶.
It's just as refreshing as the last time with just the right amount of acidity 😊It's still going down well!
The bottle went empty in no time 😅 Well, of course it did...
Today I went shopping for the second time this month toward the end of the year 🚗.
I was worried if the fridge would hold the largest purchase ever, but standing in front of the fridge at the liquor store, I wanted more and more of this and that 😂.
I need to drink well during the New Year's holiday 😋.
I get jealous when I see your Xmas posts... but I'm familiar with the one person Xmas every year 😂.
Today, I'd like to talk about Kochi...dry sake. Not dry... "Kameizumi CEL" 🍶.
Based on the prior information, the bottle was opened with sweet ❗️
Sweet, delicious!
But the aftertaste is just the right amount of acidity to reset the palate.
Reset the inside of your mouth!
Another sip with a fresh feeling. This is a good stuff 😅.
It goes down so smoothly 💦.
I came to myself and sealed the bottle before I went into the overdrinking loop😅I have to work tomorrow...
I almost emptied the bottle in the heat of the moment😅😅😅
Good morning, Pon-chan 😀 It was a true Pinappo 😋 I'm glad I was able to enjoy the original alcohol when I was alone at Xmas and the snacks were not great...(or so I told myself 😂).
Today's bottle is "Garakudai" which I wanted to drink even more after receiving it last time.
The bottle was opened immediately.
The aroma is a little bit strong, but the first sip is refreshing. It's refreshing. ⤴️
The first sip is refreshing, and the taste is very smooth and smooth.
Delicious at any temperature!
It is a high-specification sake, but it is a good-cost sake, and can be enjoyed with food or on its own.
Good morning Jay & Nobby, ☺️
I'm only on two different brands, but I'd love to win them all 😅.
We have a long road ahead of us in many ways, but it's only going to get more fun 😊.
Today is also the first issue of the series 🍶.
Eiko Fuji
I drank a little too much at the year-end party last night.
After wondering what to do tonight, I opened the bottle.
I didn't need to worry 😅
It's one of the brands from the series that we brought with us at last week's Bakubai.
The first sip, feeling sweet and delicious from the aroma. The aroma is just as sweet and delicious as it is. ☺️
But it's so refreshing, it's one of those bottles that you drink too much of 🤣.
I decided to drink it in moderation and ended my day 😂This was another bottle that made me want to drink the other series 🥰.
