Third cup. This was at the request of my junior who likes dry sake. It is delicious with a round taste and a dry, refreshing sensation. It ran out quickly.
What is this label and name for the second cup? It is said that the name is derived from the thought of the brewery anxiously and expectantly waiting for the sake to be released from the brewery, overlapping with the thought of waiting for the next bout. How does it taste? A light sweetness with sourness and spiciness that gives it depth. It's delicious. It's just as good as expected.
Today, I was tired from the first thing in the morning until late in the evening after a long series of meetings and discussions, including a lunch break. I decided to have a drink with my juniors and go home. Since I came to this restaurant, I decided to try the sake tasting set. First up was the Shimanto River, from left to right. It is not too spicy and mild for a Tosa sake. It is delicious.
Drinking at home. Purchased in a bottle at a local supermarket. I cooled it down and drank it little by little. The taste is soft sweetness and umami. Fruity aroma. The aftertaste is not too bad. It is just the way I like it. After all, Shichida is delicious.
The second cup is Koei Kiku, which I haven't had in a while. Citrusy and fruity. After a long time, it has a cool, slightly carbonated taste. Delicious. Now that I've reset myself, I'm going home.
I'll be working late today and will return from Tokyo Station. I wondered if they were still doing it. I looked and found it was still open. The first cup was a Hiragana no Gonotsuki. It is light and refreshing, with a nice bitter aftertaste. It's a nice refreshing sigh of relief.
Returning from a business trip to Kanazawa. Return via Toyama. After an hour's ride on the local train, I entered a sushi restaurant in Toyama Station. First of all, I had to try the local sake. I think this was my first time to try Manjusen. It was fruity and delicious. The sushi was delicious, the sake matched well, and I left the restaurant satisfied. All that remained was to catch the Shinkansen and go to bed.
The third drink. I was torn, but decided to go with the Koryu, which I don't often order here. It is easy to drink with a hint of sweetness, but the aroma and sourness give it a zing. It is good. It is dry and goes well with a side dish. That's all I have for today. I am quite drunk.
The second cup. I hear it has rice wine in it, so I guess I'll have to ask for it. When I took a sip, the aroma was gorgeous. It smells like apples. It has been a while since I had it. It's been expensive lately. It is still delicious. I enjoyed it while savoring it.
After the holidays, I had a lot of work to do, but yesterday it was all over. I went to my favorite buckwheat noodle restaurant, thinking it would be a good idea to drink alone today. I ordered a bottle of "Sentori" without hesitation. The sourness and a hint of sweetness of Senkou are delicious. The aftertaste is also tight. I knew I could not miss it.
This was also sold at a local supermarket. Recently, I have been buying a bottle of fire-brewed sake here and drinking it chilled in a Yongo bottle at home. When I drink it after it cools down, it has a restrained sweetness and acidity. There is no doubt about it. It is a little more dry than the usual one.
Inspired by a Mexican tequila that I saw in Yamagata, I found it at a nearby supermarket and gave it a try. It has a light sweet taste, followed by a refreshing dry taste, making it easy to drink. It would be nice if they sold it in cans like this.
At a local supermarket, I tried and bought two Yamagata sake that I was interested in. Dewazakura is a candidate for heated sake because it is a Yamahai. Tasted at room temperature, it was dry and sour. I knew it needed to be heated. When warmed, the sake is rounded and the acidity is nice and balanced. The aroma on the nose is nice. It's good.
It is available at a nearby supermarket along with Jungin. I was curious about it, so I bought one and compared them. It was sweet and soft. It has a strong umami taste. It doesn't have the aftertaste of Jungin. When we tried heating it up, it was too sweet. Cold sake is better. Jungin is better when heated.
Drinking at home. The aroma of this wine is very strong, and when you take a sip, the sweetness spreads, and the slightly carbonated freshness, acidity, and umami rush over you. My wife says it smells like lychee. I see.
Well, let's have another drink. Since we ordered sashimi, let's go for a dry sake. This one is crisp and watery, with a hint of umami in the dry taste. This is the kind of sake that tastes sweet when you lick salt off of it. It is delicious. I opened it and left.
Man Fat in Kanda. I thought it would be empty after the consecutive holidays, but it was quite crowded. But the counter was empty. What shall we drink? We had a Kudoki-uage for the first time in a long time. It is fruity, sweet, and delicious.
The company-sponsored golf competition is over. The eve of the event at the izakaya in front of the station was also good. I drank a lot of local sake and breathed a sigh of relief when the next day's golf game was over. I had this cup of sake that I bought at a convenience store in the train station. It was good, good, good.
The second drink at home. This one was sold at a local supermarket. It tasted sweet and aromatic when heated. It was not soft because it was heated, but rather the original softness of the sake. I think I'll drink it cold tomorrow.
This is also a house drink. Purchased at a local liquor store. Is it spring sake in a clear, colorless bottle? Taking a sip, I wondered if it was plum wine. It is sweet and sour and easy to drink. But the bitter taste at the end keeps it from getting dull.
