drinking at a sushi bar
Gagakuyo is my first brand.
Slightly gassy
A little dine
Slightly sweet with a citrus taste
The ankimo (liver) in soy sauce is excellent and the sake never stops 💦.

drinking at a sushi bar
A rare dry sake from Amabuki
Subdued aroma
Light and sharp like water

Sushi is good!

drinking at a sushi bar
It's been a while since I've been to a familiar sushi restaurant, but the number of local sake from the prefecture has increased.
From among them, I had a bottle of Takeyoshi's Lightning and a bottle of Cycling.
Rai (Japanese sake)
15% undiluted sake
Sweet and juicy
Mellow like a grape
Chari
13°Nama sake
Complex tasting rum
Refreshing beverage with an image you want to drink while riding a bicycle
Two bottles that symbolize the recent Modern Takeyoshi
At Midori Sushi
I was quite drunk from the warmed sake, but I thought it would be rude to leave after only two drinks, so I ordered another round.
Snow Goddess 50% polished rice with yeast No. 701
Drinking the first sip with Hikaru
It seems a little hard.
Drink slowly over time
Sharp sweetness, although it is super-harsh
The sharpness of the aftertaste
The No. 7 character comes out with time.
While biting into Mom's special pickles
Afterwards, we were served Aizu Nakasyo's National New Sake Competition gold medal-winning sake, but to my shame, I have no memory of it...
at Sumiyoshi
I wanted to drink warmed sake, so I ordered a bottle of Akizuka.
Natural sake made with Yamadanishiki grown organically without pesticides in our own rice paddies.
Milky and warm!
The bottle was left for a few weeks after opening, so it has a nice flavor.
The rich and flavorful taste is perfect with Sumagatsuo sashimi!
Enjoying the warmed sake while listening to our mom's tasty conversation!
At Sumiyoshi
At Hikaru-kun's on my way home from work.
Juicy, sweet and tasty with a well-balanced flavor
Slightly caramelized flavor
Nice body like Omachi
And yet the overall taste is gentle.
It's like a darker version of the Musical Instrument Masamune.
Seared Ibodai and
at Sumiyoshi
Fully fermented sake made with Dewa Sanzu
13% alcohol by volume for summer
Grain aroma
When you put it in your mouth, the umami flavor spreads, but you don't feel any unpleasant taste.
You can also taste chocolate and coffee.
It's hard to believe that the original sake, which is over 21 degrees Celsius, was watered down to 13 degrees Celsius.
You can really feel the buffering power of what Mr. Ishikawa says.
It's also great warmed up!
It gently sinks into your stomach after a long day of drinking and air-conditioning!
Let's get through the summer with heated sake!
Purchased last month when I visited Naraijuku.
The warehouse had been renovated and turned into an inbound inn.
After tasting four kinds of sake, I bought a test brew of Beta 2
Kinmon-Nishiki 50% polished rice, No. 14 yeast
Melon and pear aroma
Slightly gassy and refreshingly sweet
Delicate and moderate texture
The bitterness in the aftertaste invites eating.
The yeast seems to be Taipinghai's 1314, which is natural since it is No. 14 yeast...
The price setting may be aimed at inbound and export markets.
Indeed, Naraijuku was full of foreigners...
Bought this sake out of curiosity as it was brewed with revived Association No. 3 yeast.
Opened the bottle after 9 months in the fridge
Sense of fresh ripeness
Deep sweetness and umami of ripe fruit
Overall, it has a classic taste.
Mellow body with a hint of bitterness at the end.
The label says it has a muscat aroma, but it has a strong sense of ripeness...
I like ripe, but it's a pity that I can't grasp the characteristics of No.3 yeast...
Purchased at a liquor store near my parents' home
Slightly banana
Full aroma and bitter aftertaste
Not at all light.
Reminds me of Kamikigen and Hitakami.
It drains the fat from tuna sashimi and croquettes.
Suitable for a daily evening drink.
A dry sake with flavor
And it goes well with... cake, for sure.
Celebrate! Fukushima Prefecture is back in first place in Japan in the number of breweries that have won gold medals in the National New Sake Competition!
Cheers to Fukushima's Sake!
Autumn Agari before summer
Purchased at the brewery on a trip to Aizu last year
Rich sweetness and umami like bananas and ripe persimmons
Aged and matured, it has a calm and mature taste.
Miyazumi has not won any prizes, but it must be delicious...
I'm rooting for them even though they are in the next prefecture.

A better sake than expected.
Hiyoroshi even during GW
Sake for a quieter time
Slightly aged aroma, almond aroma
Slightly milky and smoky
Cheap cheese becomes smoked cheese
A very dry amino acid drink with a lot of flavor
Yoi koshirae, which seems to be the newest addition to the Mu-Kaze series.

After a day, muscat too!
The aroma is sweet, but the taste is not so sweet.
silky, clean and dry, it reminds me of 1314 from Taipinghai.
Light sweetness that reminds me of Taipinghai 1314.

Daiginjo-nama sake from Jyushiyo
35% polished Yamadanishiki from the special A district of Hyogo Prefecture
Sake that you would not be able to find if you lived a healthy life.
I am sure he went through a lot of trouble to get it for his sake friends.
Impression of the No. 10 series
It was incomparably delicious, but
But I drank too much and had too much fun, so I don't remember much of it.
But the best thing is to drink healthy!
At Satsuma
Recently, I've had a lot of outside and event drinking, so I'll be very selective in my postings.
Attending the Japan Ginjo Sake Association's New Sake Festival
We spent 90 minutes drinking all the sake on display this year and other sakes that you would never normally be able to buy.
The most memorable of these was the reasonably priced Nanbana
Nadeshiko flower yeast is used in this sake!
The brewer is a graduate of Tokyo University of Agriculture!
Sweet fruit aroma and soft mouthfeel
A clean taste with a refreshing aftertaste.
I couldn't help but have another two sips!
This is the first prize for my taste buds!
Hello.
Thank you for choosing my hometown Minamiaizu-cho sake as the first prize of the day!
