My parents went to Hakodate again and bought me sake 🤲.
No, how many times are you going? 🫢.
but I'll take what I can get ✌️
This is the first sake from Hakodate National College of Technology Lab in Goryo!
They've succeeded in mass production and cultivation of rapeseed yeast.
It's really great to see young people making sake!
The taste is as refreshing and easy to drink as the Goryo sakes we've had so far: 🙋♀️
It has a bit of bitterness compared to the other sakes, which gives the impression of being sharp, making it a perfect sake for summer!
Personally, I prefer this one to the dry one.
I had it with scallop sashimi and my wife was happy too!
Thank you very much for the sake!

I drank the Risshun label and forgot to post it 😭
I'm trying to remember with my notes: ✍️
I was allowed to visit a liquor store in Kitakyushu when I went back to my wife's parents😊.
It was a quaint store, the staff was friendly and we bought their recommendations!
Nishi no Seki Tachiharu Asashibori☀✨
This is actually my first Tachiharu Asashibori itself!
The taste is refreshingly sweet and extremely delicious! It has a strong sweetness like dragon fruit and a good acidity, just the way I like it!
But it's on the higher side, so it made me blush right away!
I was happy to enjoy it with Nuka Miso Daki!
I'll buy the regular label next time ✌️
Thank you very much for the food: ✨️

A bottle given to me by my uncle in Nagano.
Finally, even my uncle found out I was drinking sake.
The vermilion label looks like a good omen!
I thought it might be hiya if it was dry and junmai (pure rice). I decided to drink it without chilling it.
The first mouthfeel is heavy and dry, but the aftertaste is bitter and umami.
I had it with Kakuni, so I was able to enjoy it thoroughly while refreshing my palate. ✌️
I drank it cold later and found that the dry taste was calming, but I prefer it cold.
Thank you very much for the meal!
Good morning, Ofuji 🐥.
You got caught and gave away sake 🎁, great success! That's right 😉 And your uncle in Nagano, he can teach you all kinds of Shinshu sake 😊.
Hi Ponchan ✨
It was a great success 🎶but my uncle seems to be a fast drinker...it will be gone soon after I send it to him lol
I'm going to ask him to teach me about the core sake of Shinshu 😁.

I realized that I haven't posted about the sake I drank at the beginning of April 💦.
It's been a while since I bought Takasago 😊.
When I drank it a long time ago, I thought it might be too dry, but I didn't feel that at all 😳.
It was as easy to drink as Jikin, and the freshness of the sake made me finish it quickly: 🙆♀️
Thank you for the treat~✨️
Hello Nochi, ☀️

It's been a while since my last post, but I got Shikishima at the end 🎶.
The first mouthfeel was mellow and sweet from the rice, but in the second half, it had a tangy and bitter taste that made it refreshing!
I wrote in my notes at the time that it might be the most The sake-like of the three 💦.
I'd like to go again when it's free because it's crowded at Hana-Kin and other times...
Thank you very much for your hospitality!

The second bottle is Junmai Ginjo by Ippo-self!
One we have not had at home yet 🎶.
I was watching the drama "Arabashiri" with the wife when it came out, so I picked it up!
It's the drama effect 💦.
Unlike Shichida, it has a clean, sharp and crisp taste.
It's perfect for the hot summer months, and this one might be better to pair with yakitori. 🙆♀️
Thank you for the food 🙏🙏.

I was not able to do any activities during GW, but I went to Seseri in Saiin.
The main store seems to be in Yoshida, but it was recently opened and the store is beautiful.
The first bottle was Shichida Oorigarami!
I may have never had Shichida before 🤔The taste is not dry, it has a gentle sweet and sour taste with a hint of green apple 🍏.
It's very easy to drink - I would love to have a bottle at home!
The seseri here was delicious but I forgot to take a picture 😭
Thanks for the treat 😋.
Hi Ofuji-san, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀.
I see you had a busy GW, thank you for your time 🙇.
This restaurant was new to me too, so I looked it up on the food log, and it's a yakitori restaurant that will stick with sake and Sapporo Beer lovers 🥰.
Hi Ofuji-san 🐦.
Is this a yakitori restaurant where seseri is the main dish? I've never heard of it 😳I like the fact that they have shichida origami 👍I'd love to stop by if I ever go to Saiin 😁.
Good morning, Ofuji 😃.
Thanks for your GW! Seseri is a 5 minute walk from my house😊 I went there when it opened too! The front charcoal grill 😋 and the self-serve sake from the fridge 🍶 made me want to go back again 😍.
Hi Gyve, ☀️
Sorry for the late reply💦.
I've never been to the main restaurant, but it was thriving - the menu seems to be different for standing and tables. ✨️ You should definitely try it~!
Ponchan Hello ☀️
I'm guessing yakitori, but we also have other specialty yakitori, charcoal grill, and oden 🍢.
The sweetness of shichida was perfect with oden ✨️
Aochan Hi ☀️
Thank you so much 🎶I've been stuck at work lately 😭I'm jealous that you have such a nice restaurant just a 5 minute walk away 🎶I love that self-serve system too.

I know this is sudden, but I'm going to discontinue my personal evaluation.
I think it may offend some of you. 🙇♀️
I'm pretty sure my body will remember if I want to drink it again or not: ✌️
This time it's Yuki no Bijin purchased at Nishimura Sake Shop.
Although this sake is made with No. 6 yeast, this one is not fruity, but rather has a ricey and bitter flavor that is free of any cloying taste😊.
Because it is a draft sake, it has a sharp taste with a strong gassy feeling when the bottle is opened. As time went by, the corners were removed and it mellowed~!
It was a treat 🙏.

Last week, my mother-in-law over there wanted to go sightseeing in Kyoto, so we went to Fushimi Inari and Fushimi 🚗.
I went to Fushimi Inari for the first time in Corona, but I didn't see any Japanese at all 😳and many foreign people!
At noon we moved to Fushimi and bought this bottle at Gekkeikan's Okura Memorial Museum ✌️
I've wanted to buy one since I saw it at the Miyako Messe event 🤤.
The first half is sweet and sour like pineapple with a pronounced fruity flavor🍀*.
The sweetness of the rice is more pronounced in the second half 🌾.
I think if you drink it at 5 degrees or something, the pineapple taste will be lessened?
It costs 3,000 yen, but you can buy it as a souvenir when you visit Gekkeikan in Fushimi 🎶.
Thank you for the drink 🙏🙏🙏.
Hi Ofuji 🐦.
Fushimi-san is crowded as always 😳Thanks for your time 😊.
I see you have such a stylish label Gekkeikan ‼️ and the taste seems to be as modern as the label ❣️ I want to drink it even though it's a nostalgic pain 😁.
Ponchan Hi ☀️
It was still better when I arrived at 8am, but when I came down from the mountain it was full of people😳

I saw this at Nishimura and bought it!
After the white label, the next one is black label~◼️
I completely forgot that it was fizzy and let it explode 💥.
Oh, my goodness the sake 😭
I'll have some after I get myself together 😋.
The aroma is gorgeous and the fizz is amazing!
At first it has a strong bitter taste peculiar to the gasiness, but it's low al and easy to drink, the top level of schwash I've had recently 🫧.
It's a totally different line from Organic Naturals, which surprised me 👀 how much it changes with the way it's made.
Low-alcoholic and easy to drink, I enjoyed it as an aperitif .
Thanks for the treat 🙏.
Good morning, Ofuji 😃.
Senkou-san's Sanshiki! You'll be scared if you forget and open it normally 😅It's light, dry and delicious 😋Honestly, it will be gone before you eat it as an aperitif 😙.
Good morning Jay & Nobby ☀️
Sorry for the delay 🙇♀️
I didn't think this drink would explode either😳
But it's light and easy to drink, I popped it in 2 days 🎶.

A bottle given to me when I stayed at my parents' house for a day.
I was not able to buy any sake from the Yokote area during my trip to Akita, so I am very thankful for that. ✌️
Aromatic aroma and dry taste that fills the mouth! It has just the right balance of amino acids and umami. It is relatively easy to drink compared to other dry sake!
I've had other Akita Sake Komachi, but I didn't realize how different it tastes when brewed by different makers!
Thank you for the treat!

Like Saruko-no-Izumi, which I drank before, I received this from a relative!
This is the second bottle I've had before dawn: ✨️
I found this one to be very easy to drink 😋.
It is not too sweet at first, but the fresh sweetness comes through quickly and tastes like green apples 🍏.
I haven't seen it sold here, but I would like to buy it if it is available! Thank you for the treat!

About a month ago, I was at Biwako Valley 🏂.
The range of the car is limited to those without studded tires, but the wife and I had a great time 😊.
On the way home, we stopped by a liquor store and bought a vermilion label of Laughing Four Seasons.
It looks like a rosé wine 🎶.
The taste is sweeter and more acidic than the white label - I heard from others that it tastes like plums 🙂↕️ but it's the sweetness of the rice that really stands out afterwards!
Anyway, the price is very reasonable!
Thank you very much for the food 😋!
Good morning, Mr. Ofuji!
Biwako Valley is beautiful. ⛷️
I remember going to a late night nighter a long time ago ✨
Sweet and sour lol Shiki looks delicious 😋.
Good morning, ma-ki-san. ☀️
There were a lot of people on the lower road, partly because you can go there with normal tires...
Late-night night! That sounds like a lot of fun 🎶!
Laughing Four Seasons is also tasty with a sense of pluminess. ✌️
Hi Ofuji 🐦.
Sunny Snowboarding 🏂️ is the best! I heard it was extremely crowded, so I've never been there even though I'm in Shiga 😂.
And I haven't had the vermillion label yet 💦 It's as Li as it looks 😻.
Hi Pon 😊
I'm glad it was sunny because the road was ☁️~
Thanks to you, there were so many people!

I found this Koshi at a sake shop I visited when I was in Kitakyushu at the end of January!
I had wanted to buy it for a long time, so I bought it, even though it is not a local product. ✌️
It has a juicy sweetness with a slight refreshing taste. ☺️ It's almost apple-like in image 🍎 and there's a slight gassy feeling that I like, is this an apple tizer?
It's not low al but it was very easy to drink!
Maybe it's perfect to drink in the summer!
Thank you for the treat 🙏.

Ichinomiya & Local Sake Tour No. 31
This year we visited Shimogamo-san on a snowy day🚗³
Yamashiro-no-kuni Ichinomiya Kamo-miso-jinja Shrine
It is located on the north side of the Kamo River delta and is famous for its Tadasunomori forest - it was snowing that day so I was only able to walk about half of the way 🫣 but the Tadasunomori forest with snow was beautiful too ❄️
I stopped by Osaki Shoten and bought something I had never seen before: ✌️
I learned after I bought it that Saito Shuzo, the brewer of Eikun, sells this sake specially at Osaki Shoten!
It has the same gorgeous aroma as Eikun, but it was not super dry with a lot of umami...!
It was neither fruity nor oome, but gently sweet and firm. Close to honey? It's not like honey 🍯.
I also felt some dryness in the second half but not that strong, which changed my impression of Eikun a lot!
It was delicious 😋 Thanks for the treat 🎶.

Nissho Bookkeeping! I finally passed ㊗️
This motivator is a good opportunity to try other certifications 🤔.
On Saturday, I had a leisurely evening drink for the first time in a while!
I got Kaze no Mori ALPHA1: Gateway to the Next Chapter
A combination of Bodhi yeast and modern technology
I also bought a bottle of Mimuro-Sugi's Bodai-Hashiroshi because it was delicious!
The rest is too cheap anyway, I think it was less than 1,500 yen 😳.
The taste is still one of my favorite tastes: ♥️
It has just the right amount of gas, juicy sweetness and is easy to drink with low alcohol content.
Low alcohol and easy to drink🎶.
The entrée was grilled with fried bean curd because there was some sangeki celery left, thank you very much 🙏.
Good morning, Ofuji!
Congratulations on passing the bookkeeping 🎉.
ALPHA1 is good and easy to drink ⤴️
You need to reward yourself for your hard work with a drink and it's great 😋.
Hello Ofuji ^_^
Congratulations on passing the Nissho Bookkeeping 🎉.
As a commerce graduate myself, I miss the bookkeeping phrase ☺️
Now you can enjoy your drink comfortably ✨.
Hi, Ofuji! 🙋
Congratulations on passing 🈴 the Nissho Bookkeeping! 🎉🎉🎉
Studying for exams is really tough 😅!
Every time I get older, my memory gets worse and more exams I give up. 😱😱

You did a great job 👍and the door to the next chapter is a match 😊.
Enjoy your drinking life without any worries 🎶.
Congratulations on passing the bookkeeping exam, Ofuji-san: ㊗️📝💮.
That alone is awesome, and even more ambitious to go on to other certifications 😳.
Reward yourself with a drunken drink 🍶.
Kaze no Mori, they will raise the price from 4/1, but I think it is still cheap!
Good evening, Heppoko-san 🌛.

I've been drinking on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays because I've loosened up lol.

It has already been a month since my trip to Akita!
I had a lot of fun, but I still wanted to eat kiritanpo.
So I ordered a bottle of Sanseki Seri from my hometown tax payment.
I don't think I can start without it ✨️
Of course, I would like to drink Akita sake to go with this!
So I opened a bottle of Kakunodate!
I wondered how it would taste 🤔 since it is sold only in tourist areas, but I found it to be one of my favorites: ✨️
It was not dry at all, but was easy to drink with a refreshing taste and juicy sweetness!
The kiritanpo nabe was excellent!
Especially the Seri are the best - I wish they would sell them over here😍!
Thanks for the food 🙏!
Good morning, Ofuji. 😊
Kiritanpo nabe! 😍The supermarket around our house
I am so sorry to hear that there are only celery with the roots detached in
I am so disappointed to find that there are only celery with the roots detached. 😢.
I want to get Hinai Jidori chicken fresh, not frozen.
I want to get it fresh, not frozen.
Hello, Ofuji 😊.
I'm remembering the winter scenery of Kakunodate, sake 🍶Kakunodate❣️ and kiritanpo nabe🍲.
Above all, Miseki celery, the most delicious celery in Japan😍💕The celery is the pride of our Akita 🎶Miseki is also delicious with cherries🍒😋.
Hi Ofuji 😃
We've never been to Akita 🥲I did a nabe a while ago with seseri I bought at the supermarket, but I really want to try the real seseri nabe 🥹.
Good evening, Hanapin-san 🌛.
I found a celery but not up to the roots...
I wonder if the breed is also different 🤔.
I used Nagoya Cochin because it's hard to find Hinai Jidori, so I used Nagoya Cochin because of the Jidori connection lol.
Good evening, T.KISO 🌛.
Nabe🍲&sake🍶 with memories was the best 🎶.
I've only been to Akita twice, but it's full of delicious food 💕︎
I also ate butter mochi while snowboarding and got hooked 🏂.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
The first time I met that Seri was at a Seri nabe in Sendai! It was so delicious!
Yesterday, I collaborated with Kyoto's fried bean curd to make seri yaki. It also goes well with sake 😊.
Good evening, Pon-chan 🌛.
I personally find kiritanpo to be similar in texture to grilled rice balls! I hope you will visit Akita, including Kakunodate, because there is a lot of Sake there! If you time sale, it's 7,000 yen one way from Itami by JAL. ✌️

My friend bought this bottle for me when she went to Ishikawa.
I'm kind of sorry because I've been giving her all the affordable ones 😅.
When you open the bottle, you can smell the gorgeous aroma!
The taste is a lactic acid type of Yamabai with a firm sweetness followed by sourness.
The whole experience was very refreshing 😋.
Thank you for the treat 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Ofuji, it's been a while 😊
You are a great drinker 😳You are a good friend who knows I love sake 😉 I haven't had Yamahai, so I am very curious 😊.
May you drink it and get rid of your fatigue😊🙏.
Good evening, Ponchan 🌛.
Sorry for the delay in commenting! 🙇♂️

I bought this bottle when I visited Hata Sake Shop.
I went to Suwako in the summer but didn't buy it💦.
The label gives me a feeling of good luck🍀.
It is a junmai dry orikara-mi, but you don't feel the spiciness but rather a mild sweetness thanks to the orikara-mi, and you can taste a good acidity and gassiness, which gives it a fresh explosion 💥.
It's easy to drink with a gentle sweetness, similar to Senkou's ✨.
The next day, the freshness is about half gone and the dryness shows up, but it's also delicious!
Thank you for your hospitality 🙏🙏.
On a side note, when I opened the figurine at the beginning of the year, it was too big and there was no place to put it, so it was on top of the fridge...
For the time being, they will appear in the sake photos: 🙇🏻♀️
Good morning, Ofuji-san 🥹.
Sotheby's is cool 🥹.
I had my eyes on that one first: ❣️
I'm really interested in the image that you say is similar to Senkou 🤔I'd love to drink it 🍶.
Good morning Mr. Ofuji😊.
First time commenting 🙇.
This Mikotsuru label is so nice and the taste is also my favorite 👍 in the review.
This figure, nightingale is cool too 😁✨
Hi Ofuji 🐦.
It looks delicious ❣️ and the label is perfect for New Year - Risshun 👍I haven't seen it in Daimaru lately so I'm very jealous 😊.
I'm so happy about the figurine, I thought you took a picture with it 🤣.
Good evening, Mr. Ofuji 🌛.
If you ask me, the design of the crane and the sunrise is very auspicious ✨
［I was surprised at the size of the nightingale 🤣and it's so cool😁.
Is this the one from ROBOT soul?
Good evening, Mr. Muro.
I haven't seen Mikotsuru much either, but it's delicious 😋.
This is a nightingale! It's practically like a Sotheby's 😁I bought it because it's so cool ✨️

The labels are as stylish as ever, I like the greenish label the best!
I forgot which sake it was😅.
I love the clear sweetness and the slight sourness!
It's sweet like apple and low in alcohol, so you'll finish it in no time!
The aftertaste is a bit sweeter than the last sannou brew I drank!
It's still my favorite flavor 😊.
Thank you for the drink 🙏!
Good evening, Ofuji.
Sundo is delicious, isn't it? ⤴️
I had the same thing the day before, and it was still delicious SANDO 😋.
I wonder when I can drink next time? I wonder when I can drink it again 😅.
I'd like to try the green and red bottles too 😊.

This is too good for my taste 😁.
I wish there would be more distributors!
I also have to go south of Osaka to buy it 😭
I'm also interested in the pricey sundries!
