I might not see you this year... I thought I might not be able to see you this year...! We met at Yokohama Kimishimaya at a tasting by Ms. Yuka Imamura, the brewer of Wakanami Shuzo. The honey-like aroma lured me in, the sizzling sensation caressing my tongue, and the deep, gentle, gentle waves 🍶✨The rush was so pleasant that I couldn't stop drinking 😋.

Finally a break for a late dinner. Wakanami Shuzo's Black Dragonfly 🍶✨There are no distributors in Hokkaido for the Dragonfly series, and only during the Black Dragonfly season, I have many opportunities to stop by Nishiyama-ya in Kawasaki on my business trips. The freshly opened sake has a tangy sourness on the palate, and the black color of the label seems to suck you in 😋😋.

Christmas 🎄× #Wakanami TYPE-FY2 Nama Sake Fruity sweet aroma, freshly opened FY2-like numbing mouthfeel, but this time with a clear, thick umami that spreads three-dimensionally in the mouth, and then a slow pull 🥰. Surprising and enjoyable, like a wave on the beach unexpectedly coming in knee-deep 🍶✨.

Maruishi Brewery's 333rd anniversary sake 🐰二兎貴醸酒 純米吟醸 山田錦五十五🐰 has a creamy sweet aroma and a beautiful sweetness on the palate that is boldly and repeatedly spreading 🍶✨I would personally call it a "rice cocktail" with a delicious taste 🍸.

The birthday celebration ended, of course, with a cup of Wakanami 🍶✨ Junmai Ginjo Jukinmu, with a soft aroma of muscat, tangy acidity, sweetness, and a slow, bitter umami flavor 😋.

I had a cup of this at a stall at the Susukino Festival the other day 😋. It has a smooth taste and a gorgeous flavor to enjoy. It is the kind of sake you want to enjoy with fireworks on a hot summer festival night 🍶✨.

Wakanami 2022 Tojo Yamadanishiki 🍶✨ The sweet aroma invites you to taste the crisp acidity and umami at the mouth, which quickly changes to sweetness again, and the lingering aftertaste lasts for a long, long time 😋.

It's getting hot in Hokkaido, so I'm ready to open a bottle of Wakanami's Type-FY2 🍶✨It's only just opened, but this year's FY2 has a grapefruit-like acidity on the palate, followed by a slow and deliberate spread of flavor on the tongue 🌊. Delicious 😋.

Wakanami Honjozo from Wakanami Shuzo 🍶✨. I had a chance to drink it at Shimizu Okonomiyaki in Osaka before, and I was hoping to have a chance to drink it again. The taste is light on the palate for a moment, and then the umami spreads slowly, giving it a relaxing flavor 🥰 It seems to go well with strong-flavored snacks.

I haven't posted about sake lately... but I do drink it often 🍶Tokachi, which I brought to JOnsen. Kamikawa Taisetsu is now available in many places, which shows its popularity, and I can understand why it is so popular 🍶✨It is also available at New Chitose Airport.

Junmai Ginjo Black Dragonfly by Wakanami Shuzo. It's hard to find in Hokkaido, and every spring I look forward to getting my hands on one and opening it 🍶✨😋. This year's Black Dragonfly has a soft and sweet aroma. The clear flavor is sweet and soft on the tongue, but when you finish it, it is full-bodied. It's a wonder 🥰🥰🥰.

I bought a bottle of Takanome 🍶✨ out of curiosity. The sweetness spreads smoothly and gradates to a soft bitterness and umami, yet it's still a well-rounded drink. I would love to drink it at a party 😋.

Wakanami Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake 🍶✨ The creamy aroma is entrancing at first 🤤. It's as exciting as a crashing wave, yet it slips into your mouth and the umami spreads out and disappears like an undertow. I love it 😋🍶.
