Today I took a leisurely drive to Kanoya in Yume Town and got my first Tochigi sake.
I was torn between Kameizumi Cell and Gobashi's ride?
It is a medium-bodied sake with a good flavor.
It has a sweet aftertaste.
I went to a liquor store in the city today and bought this Koigawa because it was on sale.
It is said to be made from 100% Yamagata rice.
The label on the back says it tastes good lukewarm, but I drank it hanayaka (cold).
It's refreshingly dry.
It's easy to drink.
I will have Eikun Junmai sake tonight.
I bought it at a local supermarket.
I thought it would taste strong from the aroma, but I was right.
I like the taste.
It is delicious.
I drove to Tomikunishiki to buy it today, Junsei Benkei.
I remember drinking it last year when it was test brewed and released.
Very fresh and sweet.
I haven't had any Tomikunishiki recently, so it's delicious.
I like Tomikunishiki after all.
I found it at Kobe Kita Aeon today and bought it thinking that I had never had it before because I was worried about Kamonishiki.
It is a little yellowish and a little spicy with a delicious flavor.
I think it's better to drink it cold.
Maybe I'll try heating it up again.
Sake made from mash that was rescued from Kazuma Shuzo's place and pressed at Kurumata Shuzo's place.
Again, I bought it to show my support.
I had wanted to try Takeba for a long time.
It is nice and spicy, the type that lingers on the palate.
Very tasty.
Good evening, Uyasa!
I also bought this today at Kanazawa station.
They had 2 cases in stock and only 7 bottles left! So I bought it. I am looking forward to this miracle sake 😊.
Good evening, @Mizuhashi!
I bought it online at the time the mail order started because I live far away from here.
It really is a miracle sake! Enjoy it slowly ☺️
A bottle of miraculously leftover Noto Hatsusakura Honjozo from Sakurada Sake Brewery in Suzu City, Ishikawa Prefecture, which arrived today, was pressed at Kurumata Sake Brewery and blended with Tengumai Yamahai Junmai.
To be honest, I try not to drink brewed alcohol because it gives me a bad headache, but this time I thought it would be okay because I wanted to support the brewery and because it was a blend.
It tastes spicy but has a sweet aftertaste. I drink it at room temperature.
I drink it at room temperature.
I hope I have contributed a little.
Uya. Nice to meet you! Sakurada-san's Hatsuzakura is an everyday drink for local fishermen. He said that he and Tengu Mai are teaming up to deliver it to many people. Sweetness may be Mr. Sakurada's forte. Please keep up the good work!
Hi WOM, nice to meet you! I bought some of Kurumata Shuzo's reconstruction support sake a while ago, and I heard they were going to release this next, so I bought it. This sweetness is the first sakura I've ever had, and I thought it would be nice to have a little support, but I'd like to drink it again.
Sake from Wakayama found at a liquor store in the next city today.
It was my first time to drink sake from Wakayama.
As the store's POP said, it is dry.
After a little while, it has a sweet aftertaste.
It is nice.
Risshun Asa Shibori arrived just a few minutes ago.
This year's sake is clear and very beautiful.
It tastes fresh right after opening the bottle.
It tastes dry and just the way I like it.
When you pour it, you can feel a little bit of density, which is also good.
I've been drinking a lot of dry sake lately.
It is good because it tastes good.
Tengumai is not gone yet, but I'll drink this one since it's a fresh sake.
It arrived a few days ago, a sake to support the recovery effort, with 200 yen per bottle being donated to the relief efforts.
This is the second time I have tried Tengu Mai, but the last time I drank it at a restaurant in Ishikawa Prefecture, and all I could think was, "Hmm? I was not surprised at all.
It's very spicy.
I like this kind of sake.
My husband used to go to university in Ishikawa 😅 when this arrived.
I'm happy to be able to help Ishikawa Prefecture in this way.
I heard they use "Gohyakumangoku" or something like that, but I love "Gohyakumangoku".
I heard that the actual stores are sold out because of the small quantity of the reconstruction support sake, so maybe it is still available in the online store. Also, there may be some liquor stores that we do business with.
I came across this nigori sake in the sake section of Aeon today.
It was labeled "100% Ginpu"...hoh.
Alcohol content 12%, light and nice.
It's easy to drink, but I have to drink it soon.
That's why I don't touch nigori sake too often.
GO SPADE I bought at the supermarket on my way home from work.
I froze it for the time being because it can be both boiled and frozen.
It is as hot as the label "sharp and dry" says.
It's a bit spicy, but it's not too spicy.
It is rather expensive for 100ml, but it tastes good.
I had wanted to try Kikusui Shuzo's Alpinist, but I found it at the supermarket and bought it.
It is dry, and I was not sure if it would be good or not, since I am not a fan of "funakuchi," but it is easy to drink.
The can is cute.
I wonder what my husband thinks I'm buying.
I still have some Koueikiku left in the fridge, though.
My parents' father kept it for 20-30% of the time.
It's spicy - I thought so especially since I drank it with Koei Kiku.
I only drink Otters at New Year's though.
New Year's Eve Nouveau, which I buy every year.
This year, we opened the bottle again.
It has a little acidity, but it tastes spicy.
I like it.
The picture of next year's zodiac sign...I think it's OK to leave the label since I'm a woman of the year.
At any rate, this is the first bottle for the New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
I've been spending most of my time drinking beer and chuhai that I won recently, so the sake is sinking in.
Tonight we had a simple junmai sake from Gekkeikan.
...I was curious about it and thought I had finally found it, but it was still very subtle.
It was described as "gorgeous and juicy," with a rich sweetness and refreshing acidity, but I'm not a fan of this sweetness.
I don't feel like I made a mistake, but I'll drink it.
Today, I went to Tomikunishiki's new sake festival as I do every year.
This year, there was more space for tasting and many customers lined up to try the sake, but since I had no choice but to drive there, I could not get in line for the tasting.
But I could not get in line for the tasting because I had no choice but to go by car. The sake with sake lees was so dry that I thought it was too hot this year.
I opened the bottle when I got home and drank it, but the new sake is fruity and dry.
My favorite taste.
I am happy.
Yesterday and today, on my way to Kanazawa to visit an art museum, I bought a bottle of Junmai Namaizu sake from a liquor store in Omimachi Market.
It is said to be made from "Gohyakumangoku" (five hundred million stones), but the moment you put it in your mouth, it is very strong, but then it quickly goes away and the sweetness is left behind.
It's so good...I'm glad I bought it.
It's a good reward for me who drove to Kanazawa by myself and got stuck in a traffic jam on the Hokuriku Expressway.
In Kanazawa.
I drank Kaga-Tobi the other day. I don't know how well it was preserved since it wasn't at an izakaya, but it was delicious.
Tengu Mai is a little bit strong, maybe because of Yamahai.
It is not bad.
There is a young guy in front of me looking at me.
Sorry, I'm just relaxing with sake.
The traffic jam on the Hokuriku Expressway was really bad.
We were 2 hours over schedule.
