The second bottle of the three walking stockings was Matsuse Shuzo, Matsu no Tsukasa Junmai Ginjo Shiboritate Raku しばしばしば fruity aroma, sweet as I imagined, with a lingering melon-like aftertaste. This is probably the first time I've had a sake from Shiga, but it's delicious👍.

Walking around the sake shop 🚶 The first of the three bottles I stocked was Shichiken Junmai Ginjo Tengo no Aji (Velvet Taste) from Yamanashi Meijo Co. The aroma is fruity, so I thought it would be sweet, but the acidity is mainly in the mouth, and it breaks off quickly, leaving a slight aftertaste at the back of the throat. Delicious!

I worked hard on a lot of things today, so I started off Monday with a bottle of Tomikiku Shuzo's Haneya Junmai Ginjo 煌火だし. When I casually opened it, the lid almost flew off. The aroma and taste are of ripe fruit, with a hint of bitterness that lingers down the throat. It's very tasty❗.

It's been a while since I drank at home with #Modern Senkou #Muku #Shiboritate Shinshu しばしば. When you put it in your mouth, sourness and a hint of sweetness sizzle on your tongue 😁 It lingers at the back of your throat with a faint bitterness, but it's not persistent. It's delicious❗

On my first trip back to Japan, I drank Hyakkotai Super Spicy Junmai Super Spicy Natsu Jun from Yoshikubo Shuzo, which I received as a parting gift. As the tag on the bottle says, there is no ginjo aroma, but when you sip it, you can gradually feel the sourness, bitterness, and alcohol, and the aftertaste lingers. It's a food sake that goes well with many kinds of food.

The sake for the anniversary of the end of World War II was #Nanbu Bijin #Junmai Ginjo by #Nanbu Bijin Co. The sake has a slight sweetness, a firm sourness, and a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. It's a bit thick while it's chilled, but the finish is perfect👍. It's been a while since I've had one of these, but the sake from Tohoku is delicious❗.
