Akishika倉垣村 ひやおろし純米吟醸ひやおろし

I didn't expect to find Aki-shika at a local liquor store! I had never seen "Kuragakimura" before. I had never seen "Kuragakimura" before and thought it was time for hiyaoroshi. When I drank it, I found it to be more matured and umami than other Aki-shika. The taste was elegant and mellow, and very typical of Aki-shika.

On the way home from playing at the park with my son, we went to a sake shop for the first time in a while. I bought this sake again, as I have never been disappointed with sake from Kagawa. Even when drunk chilled, it has a full, rich, and full-flavored taste. The aroma is very pleasant to the nose.

revive 43 years of revival. A review after a long time. My mother gave this to me when she went back home to Miyagi. It is a dry sake, with a nice tang on the nose, but the umami impact is weak!

My best friend from high school gave it to me as a birthday present. I invited him over to my house and we drank it together🍶. It is as delicious as ever. It's sweet but refreshing, not too much, and you can drink more and more of it. It's stable and cohesive. I'm not a big fan of alcohol...

I was given a weekend reward sake to buy. As the popup says, it is gorgeous, fresh, fruity, not too sweet, and concentrated in flavor. It is cloudy with a hint of orikara. What is that creature on the label? LOL!

Weekend Reward Sake 🍶. For the first time, I discovered something called "olive yeast". It is a yeast suitable for brewing found on the surface of olives grown in Kagawa Prefecture. It has a beautiful flavor with a pronounced acidity, yet it is not too strong. This is also one of my top picks. Good sake from Kagawa.

Weekend treat. When I got home from work, my son said, "I got you some booze!" That's great!" He said. He bought it with his mom. It is lightly cloudy and beautifully bottled. Very gentle on the palate. Slightly carbonated. I think it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. It was a stylish looking and tasting product.

I asked my wife to buy it for me on the weekend sake quota. Kagawa's Getsu-chu-ten, which has become a favorite after drinking it before. It has a good balance of acidity and umami. It is as delicious as ever! Beef tongue from Costco is also great!

Wedding anniversary - Akizuka No. 4. The wife's favorite Akizuka. It has a fresh, slightly carbonated, umakuchi taste. Compared to the freshness of the spring pressed sake we have had in the past, it is more subdued, but that is why it is so easy to drink. I enjoyed Aki-shika more than enough again this year. Next time I want to get a bottle of Okushika, which is the same age as my son!

Wedding Anniversary Akizuka No.3 It is a chunk of peculiar taste with 80% of polished rice left. As usual, there are two types of people who like it and dislike it. (It is similar to soy sauce. It is similar to shintschida, but relatively elegant and clear. The more you drink it, the more addictive it becomes. The more you drink it, the more addictive it becomes.

[Wedding anniversary: Autumn Deer No. 2 The long-awaited Okushika. The label design has changed and it looks more stylish. The design of the sealing cap was also changed to a henohenomoheji, which is cute. The last time I drank Yamahai, I thought it had a strong acidity, but this time I didn't feel it so much. On the other hand, it has an antique taste and is my favorite of the four bottles!

Wedding Anniversary Autumn Deer Part 1 An annual tradition! This year again, on our wedding anniversary on May 1st, we had Mrs. Oku stock up on Osaka's Aki-shika! This time we had 4 bottles: Irimon-no-Ichidrop, Yamahachi, Naokumi, and the long-sought-after Okushika. The first one was Nyukon-no-Ichidokoro. Compared to the other brands we have had so far, Akushika is basically refreshing and elegant. Nyukon-no-Ichijitoku has a more refined rice flavor. It is not too strong, but has a strong umami taste. It reminds me of the first time I fell in love with sake.

I got another one as a weekend treat. Kagawa Prefecture, come to think of it, first time checking in. It's quite similar to Aki-Deer! It has an assertive acidity, not too sweet and a bit astringent. This is one of the best I've had recently! There is a repeat! It might be similar to Kurumizaka, my favorite in Wakayama. PS: I had them make a gizzard snack for me. They are perfect!

A reward for a week. This time the wife and son went out of their way to buy it for me. Moromi is an amazing sake. It was thick, carbonated like a sparkling wine, a little sour, and delicious. The aroma on the top of the bottle was like the aroma of a hot spring. I have never seen so many blue bottles. It was beautiful with the moromi!

This is a nostalgic product that I used to drink a little bit when I was in Osaka. The label is cute 🦌. It's a bit dry, fresh, and a bit sour? I'll drink it only on weekends from now on, and take a day off on weekdays! (I drank almost the entire bottle of No. 4 yesterday.)

He bought it for his wife on his way home from a medical checkup. Masumi, you already have nigori. It is sparkling and soft. It is rich with a bitter and austere taste. I asked him to prepare fried lotus root with salt and gizzard as snacks. The weight of the bottle made my arm muscles ache, but he bought it for me and I want to drink it with care. Thank you very much.

It had acidity, a crisp mouthfeel and was not too sweet, just tasty. I have been drinking more and more recently, and I can't tell the difference in taste anymore...but it's OK, because everything is delicious! Today we went strawberry picking in the rain. Next year, I want to go in the high season. Thanks to my younger daughter for keeping us company. I wonder if my older son's Tomica was good for potatoes.

Excellent flavor. It has a sharpness. It is made directly from the top of the tank, so it has a freshness to it. The first impact on the palate is outstanding. Good, good, good.
