Work is coming to a climax😱. Let's have the drinks we want to have before our bodies break down 🕺. Today I opened a bottle of one of my favorite Gunma sake, Sei no Jungin Yamada Nishiki 🍾. The label is still as cute as ever👍! The taste is mellow, rich, juicy, and full of the goodness of Yamadanishiki 😋. The second day, it had a slightly ripe melon flavor. This is really good 🥹. It will relieve the fatigue of the week ✨.

First Fukuoka sake on my new account. It is Ikegame from Kurume 🐢. The label is a cute goldfish: ❤️ This is my first time drinking Ikegame, and while it is a junmai sake, it also has a bit of ginjo aroma, which gives it a nice cosiness 😙. It has a refreshing and crisp summery taste, with just the right amount of sweetness and umami that won't interfere with your meal 😋. It went well with meat, fish, and vegetables👍. Thanks to the sake brewery and the store that recommended it to us 🙏!

I bought some more this year, I love snocre ❣️ The corks are popping with more vigor than ever, and I'm in a great mood 😆. The schwashy, bitter, greefy feeling is still there 👍. No matter how many times I drink it, it's still good 😋. I wondered how they could make it taste like this, and this time it was empty in no time at all 🤭.

Cat label that caught my eye at the store🐈. I love you? I Love You? I LOVE Takeyuki ❗️ It's a CWS product of that Takeyuki. The expression on the cat's face, the text on the label, and the yuletide look are a little funny 🤭. As for the taste, it's shwashy, slightly sweet and refreshing✨. I didn't get the sourness I was expecting, but it was refreshing, mildly sharp, and delicious 😺.

Various Nara sake and summer sake are now available: ☀️ This time it was Shinomine. I couldn't decide between "Natsu Rin" and "Ao", but I chose "Ao" because of the vivid blue color of the brand's lettering. It was served cold. It has a refreshing acidity, sharpness, and a little sweetness. Overall, it is refreshing. It has a fresh and juicy flavor, which is typical of nama sake, and goes well with a meal. After all, Shinomine never fails to deliver. ❣️ Thank you very much for your kindness 🙏.

It's been raining ☂️ continuously lately, and it's annoying. This is a perfect one for this time of the year☝️ I bought it immediately after watching Horiichi's video❣️ I love the colorful umbrella label ✨. It is slightly cloudy. Uranashi" is a weather term for the Tango region, where sudden rain tends to fall. Don't forget your umbrella even if you forget your lunch box" - I used to hear this saying in Kanazawa, where I used to live. ☔️ I have to preface this long, but it tastes a little shwashy, crisp and fruity, with a pleasant sweet and sour taste 😆. It is made from edible rice, but it is not inferior to sake rice. I recommend it even to those who do not like sake! It's a gorgeous and uplifting sake 😆. It's similar to the Flax Cat 🤔 in terms of the sake I've had so far. I can buy Shirakikyu near me and I want to try many more.

First me👓ga👓ne ❗️ And it's a new sake 🤤! With great anticipation, I poured 👓 and opened the bottle 🍾. It's a bit shwashy, fruity, with good acidity and sharpness, and it's delicious. The brewers wear glasses, so I imagine that the steam from the steaming rice must have fogged up their lenses while they were making the sake, and I enjoyed it 🙏.

The label is so nice, I've been wanting to drink it every year and this is the first time I've been able to get my hands on a bottle of Hitotsubo no Koi 😍. It's called the ultimate food sake, and while it has sweetness, it also has a refreshing flavor, sharpness, and acidity that complements the food 😋. Oishy‼️ is perfect for this time of the year 😋. It's a sake that can be enjoyed by those who are in love and those who are not😇

It's been a long time since I've been out drinking 🍣. This is my first time to drink at sushi restaurant 😋. We had the Kindai Tuna and toasted with a sake brewed with Yamada Nishiki grown in Kindai on the menu. This sake was brewed by Ryujinmaru's Takagaki Sake Brewery 😮‼️ This is delicious! It has spiciness, acidity, and richness, with just the right amount of kick to wash away the fat from the fish 🤤. This kind of sake goes well with sushi - blissful❤️ It's not just tuna🐟! It's a great university 😆.

〽︎Naruho doodle good sake🐉 of Choryu🐉. I received a limited edition summer sake! The bottle is cool to look at and the label 🏝️ The taste is just as refreshing as I imagined, with just the right amount of umami and spiciness. Not very punchy, but an excellent food sake that can be drunk easily. I was pleasantly intoxicated. Choryu is also a good sake, although it is not nationally known: ☺️

This one has become a summer staple 🫱. The hydrangeas in my garden haven't even bloomed yet, but I couldn't resist and had some 🙏. Oh, I'm so glad it has this wonderful aroma, a full-bodied flavor that sets it apart from the refreshing summer sake, and a healthy alcohol taste 😋. It's recommended to drink on the rocks, but I just went straight for it 🤭ummmmah! I have a theory that it also tastes great warmed up, so I'm going to try it next time!

Lately I've been drinking sake from Nara, Gunma, Nagano, Gifu, and other sea-less prefectures (as it happens 😅). So this time I got Yatagarasu 🐦‍⬛ from Kitaoka Honten, an old and powerful brewery in Nara. Yatagarasu is a classic type of sake like Yoshino cedar barrel sake, but recently it has been replaced and this one was made by a 30 year old master brewer 😳. The taste is really Yatagarasu? The flavor is slightly sweet, soft, and modern. The alcohol content is light at 12%, making it easy to drink and recommended for beginners. It was especially good on the second day of opening the bottle👍. It may not be enough for those who prefer the classics, but it was a satisfying bottle for me😇. This one is from Yamadanishiki, and there was a similar label that used Koshihikari, but I wonder how it tastes 🤔.

Hi Nemuchi 😃 I don't know if this will be the mainstream Yatagarasu, but maybe they will expand the variation with the traditional classic type. Anyway, I couldn't imagine the taste from the label 😁.

Long time no see Tamatsukuri Kimura Sake Shop ❣️ The store is small, but the staff is very nice and the selection of products is nice 👍 This time, I got a bottle of W, which I had been curious about for a while 💟. They had a variety of sake rice, but I decided to start with Kinmon-nishiki, a sake rice I had never heard of. It has a freshness that is typical for a fresh sake, and a gorgeous flavor as I had imagined 😍. It's sweet with a unique richness and bitterness. This is good ❗️ My wife liked it too 😙.

Welcome to another year❗️Mimuro's Summer Sake☀️❗️ It's early... Summer sake already 😗. Refreshing as ever, just like a Ramune ἗. It goes down so easy 😆. Sake sales are down in the summer, but this year we can only stock a limited number of bottles, so we will probably sell out soon, says the owner of the store. The sake shop in Nara is also in such a state, so we recommend everyone in other prefectures to buy it immediately when you see it.

My favorite Gunma sake, Macho💪. This King👑 completes the regular Macho series: ❗️ This Yamadanishiki version is also very easy-drinking, juicy, and has a great muscle-building flavor, despite the low rice polishing 👍! In the end, all of the Macho series are delicious and hard to rank, but I think Gori-san🦍 is my favorite 😋😋. I think I'll try the Oibai series next...

After a successful work week, we opened a bottle of our favorite "Sami" wine. This is the first time for me to drink the special pure spec, but it seems to have a thicker and sweeter impression than the others... 🙄. I guess I would recommend drinking it after a meal while savoring it on its own rather than during a meal. In any case, I'm sure it's delicious👍I can feel the high level of Imi from here as well 🙂. It's not easy to find, but I'd love to try the rest of the lineup someday ( ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´´)

It's been a while since I opened a bottle of Tamagawa ❣️ during the holidays (but I worked 3, 4, and 5 😭). Mya 💕, crowned with a kitty 🐈 with a brewery. It's a little on the light side for a Tamagawa, but it's just right for this time of year 😋, but still has the typical Tamagawa umami and richness👍. This model can be recommended for Tamagawa beginners. ☝️ I hope to meet Mya-chan too 😸!
