SeanWhen I went back home, my father-in-law went out of his way to prepare a bottle of local sake from his hometown for me 😊.
I was so happy with the taste of the sake and the feeling that it made me so happy that I just had to have it 🍶.
SeanI had always wanted to go to an izakaya for a relaxing drink alone at the counter 🍶.
The drink was very tasty, with a good balance of sweetness and sourness, and a refreshing flavor that didn't linger.
The sea cucumber ponzu and smoked duck were also delicious 😆.
SeanA solo motorcycle trip from Tsuruga to Echizen. First of all, thanks to my family.
I had a glass of Fukui's local sake at an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) near where I was staying.
The refreshing flavor goes well with the boldly grilled mackerel.
SeanThis is the one. I have been drinking it for more than 20 years. It reminds me of many things, such as friends, work, and joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
SeanI had never had the chance to try it warmed up at home before, but it was the first time I drank it warmed up.
I didn't realize how different it was when heated up! I'm looking forward to drinking it in the future.
It was a Sunday night that I was exposed to the depth of sake 😉.

付喪神Good evening, Sean 🍶.
Welcome to the deep world of sake: ❣️
Warming it up opens up the flavor, doesn't it? Please experiment with different temperatures. Hot is the basic for Tamasakura 😋.

SeanGood evening, Mr. Tsukemogami 🍶.
That feeling, you call it "opening up the flavor", that's a nice way to describe it ❗️ I'll try it hot next time 😆 It's only Monday, but I'm looking forward to the weekend now 🙂...
SeanIt is said that there are only a few breweries in Japan that use the tenbin method of pressing, a method that seems to be 100 years old. It was a delicious sake with the aroma of rice.
SeanHappy New Year!
I chose this for New Year's drinking in 2023.
This is the first sake from Saga.
It was a delicious sake with a slightly sweet taste and a strong flavor.
SeanIt was recommended by a local liquor store and we opened it at my wife's birthday party😊.
The umami flavor that spreads in the mouth quickly recedes, and there is no bitterness or other unpleasant taste afterwards, this sense of balance is to my liking.
SeanI was introduced to a recommended dry wine at my favorite liquor store because I have been drinking a lot of sweet wine lately. It is sharp, pleasantly dry, and complements the food.
SeanI chose it after asking the proprietress of a local liquor store about my preferences. It was refreshingly slightly carbonated and refreshingly sweet.
SeanThis is my favorite brand that I have been drinking for more than 20 years.
This time it was a gift from my father-in-law who is from Niigata.
I enjoy it slowly.
SeanI had a drink at an izakaya I wandered into when I was working alone 🍶.
It's delicious with a rich, fluffy flavor and a refreshing taste that doesn't linger.
I will come back again.
SeanPurchased on the recommendation of the proprietress of a local liquor store for home drinking.
The refreshing aroma and fruity flavor spread after a slight carbonation.
The flavor pulls off nicely without lingering.
I'm sure I'll be a repeat customer.
