Spring Tokaido Sake Brewery Tour (1) After Iga Sake, Kouga Sake🥷. This year, I had no time and headed only for a quick stocking up. The first bottle is Hatsuzakura. I like New Hatsusakura too much, This year, I went to Shiga to pick it up 💕 again. This time I brought back a bottle of Gintaro-kun's raw sake. By the way, Taro and his wife were selling it. It is served cold. Pale yellow-green color. The top aroma is of orange and young raisins. From the soft mouthfeel, The juicy orange flavor gently blossoms and the umami of the rice flows smoothly. The second half is tightened with sweet acidity and mild bitterness, and finishes with a lingering taste of rice. It is best to warm sake just before heating. The rice is freshly cooked and fluffy. But from the way it warmed up, it would be better to keep it cold or at room temperature. If it had been hi-ire, it might have been different. I can't wait to try it! I had prepared chicken marinated in salted malt for supper, but I came home late, so I thought I'd share with those waiting for supper (1) If you grill it, you can eat it as soon as possible. (2) It takes time, but you can deep fry it. (2) It takes a long time, but we can deep fry it. The unanimous vote was for fried chicken! I thought to myself, "Well, that's good! I thought, "I'll deep fry it, I was satisfied with the fried food and the pairing 😋. By the way, I think I prefer grilled zucchini to deep-fried zucchini.

Hi Peco! I also like zucchini grilled and lightly salted 😋🥒. I'm not sure if it's because I'm old or what, but lately I often choose pickled vegetables or tempura vegetables as a side dish with my drinks.

Welcome Spring with Iga Sake (5) Iga Sake Fair this spring. The last one is a matured sake. Mie Nishiki's super-harsh junmai. First at room temperature. Pale gold in color. The top aroma is gently rounded, with an aged aroma reminiscent of fermented butter. From the slightly thickened mouthfeel, The mild ripeness of the mouthfeel The taste of rice is thick and round, The finish is capped off with acidity and bitterness, while leaving a lingering astringent taste and the umami of rice. The water content seems to have been adjusted, It is easy to drink, yet the thickness of the rice flavor can still be felt, which is typical of Mie Nishiki. When heated, the acidity and bitterness become more pronounced, and the richness of the creamy rice is more pronounced. Umu-umu-umu. Mie Nishiki is no longer brewed. I was happy to find it at the store. I was so happy to find it at the store! By the way, this Iga expedition. We ate Iga beef, and also enjoyed my favorite hot spring.

Welcome Spring with Iga Sake Iga Sake Fair this spring. The fourth sake is Takijumo's Taki Suiryu, which is written "Taki Suiryu" and reads "Hayase" in Japanese. Like the third sake, Takasago, it is brewed in Nabari. It was selected as the sake for the dinner party at the Ise-Shima Summit. It is served lightly chilled. The color is crystal with a hint of yellow. The nose is of blue melon, honeysuckle, chervil, and freshly pounded rice cakes. The mild mouthfeel is followed by a slightly sweet aroma with a thick creamy rice flavor and a bitter, pungent aftertaste that is tightened up. It is a sake that delivers the delicious taste of rice without decoration. It is perfect as a food sake! Another good sake. It is my favorite type of sake💕. They have a limited edition of nama sake, and it was recommended to me so much that I hesitated and went for the hi-ire version. I want to take home a bottle of nama sake next time!

Welcome Spring with Iga Sake (3) Iga Sake Fair this spring. The third bottle is a regular sake from Takasago. The third bottle is a regular sake from Takasago, a locally distributed brand of Jikin. It is a sake that you should get because you have come all the way to Iga. I wanted to get this sake. I drank it lazily, so my impression is more relaxed than usual😅. First, at room temperature. It has a crystalline color, The top aroma is a mild citrus aroma with freshness. The light mouthfeel is followed by a gentle citrus sweet and sour umami flavor. Takasago is fruity and has a good drinking quality. It is said that it used to be thinner and not as good. I'll heat it up from here. ♨️🍶 First, we warmed it up. It's a temperature range that enhances the juiciness while retaining its freshness. Raise the temperature a little more and go for the full-on warming. The juiciness is subdued and the fluffiness of the rice stands out. We took our time heating up the sake, Looking back at my life, I realize that I've been asked to join the staff and that my life has taken an interesting turn. The inside of my life has remained almost the same, including the fact that I am still a bit insensitive. So, I would like to say thank you to everyone at Sake no Wa. With gratitude to everyone at Sake-no-Wa, I would like to say 500 check-ins🐾

Welcome Spring with Iga Sake! Iga Sake Fair this spring. The second one is Kirigakure Saizo. The second bottle is "Saizo Kirigakure," a sake made by Ota Sake Brewery. I wonder if the name "Hanzo" will ring a bell. It was originally made by Nakai Sake Brewery in Mie-Nishiki, but Ota Sake Brewery took over the brand name, and the sake was registered with Nakai Sake Brewery. When I was shopping at a liquor store in Iga, a customer who is a Hanzo fan came in and said he had to buy the new Kirigakure Saizo sake, so I took him home 😊! So I took him home 😊. The color is pale and cloudy. The top aroma is refreshing. It has a fizzy and foamy mouthfeel, like a cider with a gentle rice flavor. It melts in the mouth and has a refreshing taste, but it is not only light, it also has depth. It is a light, refreshing and comfortable sake. It may seem light, but it is 17 degrees, so be careful not to drink too much. ⚠️ The contrast of flavors is clear even when it is lightly warmed up. It is a good choice for Hanzo fans to take home. The second bottle is also good. I want to buy this sake again next year 😍.

Welcome Spring with Iga Sake! Iga Sake Fair this spring. Mie Prefecture went out to 🥷Iga, the home of the ninja, to visit a local sake shop I met at the event and brought back 5 sake 😊. The first one was a special Honjozo draft sake from Tenga Nishiki. This sake is made with Yamadanishiki from Iga and uses white malted rice only for the sake mother. It is served cold. It has a crystalline color with a fizzy, bubbly taste. The nose is fresh and cool with orange to apricot sweet and sourness. It has a mild mouthfeel with a fine effervescence. It has a fresh coolness like cider, a cute sweet and sourness reminiscent of apricots and mandarin oranges, a creamy and full-bodied riceiness, and a finish that is full-bodied and crisp with a bitter bitterness. By adding alcohol to the original richness of the sake, the balance of aroma and sharpness is beautifully balanced with a light mouthfeel, making it a very enjoyable drink. If you come across this sake, you must drink it! As the back of the bottle says, there was a lot going on last year. There was also the Suzuka brewing, I'm glad to see that they were able to brew their own sake this season 😌. The brewer's dedication to the brewing of this sake is very evident.

This time it is Yatagarasu core series RED label. This sake is produced in Yoshino, Nara Prefecture. It is a new series of Yatagarasu and is made entirely from rice grown in Nara Prefecture, RED is a gorgeous Yamadanishiki, RED is gorgeous with Yamada Nishiki, while BLUE is rich with Gin no Sato's Yamahai. The label was also designed by the toji, and is a smart yatagarasu (three-legged crow). Serve cold. It has a greenish crystal color. The aroma is of strawberries with a hint of sweetness at the top. The mouthfeel is a bit creamy, and the sweet and sour taste of fresh and thick strawberry jam spreads gorgeously. The taste is soft and bitter, and it finishes with a clear aftertaste of sweetness that contains juicy strawberries. A gorgeous, juicy sake with crimson ripe 🍓 like the label. It has a juicy taste that is different from the Yatagarasu so far, and is sure to be popular. It was worth the drive to Nara to get it 😊. I should have brought Blue back too💦.

This sake is made from Buntan (pomelo) and mandarin oranges harvested in the orchard adjacent to the Tomita Danchi. There are two types of sake: light nigori and nigori, and I chose the light nigori. It is served well chilled. The appearance is a pale yellow light nigori like lemon squash. The top aroma is a combination of sweet koji aroma and orange aroma. The mild mouthfeel is juicy and tastes like nothing other than orange juice. The juice is so fresh that you may forget it contains alcohol. The 8% alcohol content is designed to be enjoyed by those who do not normally drink sake in their apartment complexes. The alcohol content is 8%, which is a good choice for people who don't usually drink sake, The juiciness is not lost even when drunk with ice. I am sure the people who managed the orchard would be happy to taste such a juicy juice 😊.

This time it is Fudo. The first Chiba sake of the year is from Ero Fudo💕. It is served cold. It has a nice milky white color. The aroma is of white peaches, sweet and sour strawberries, and sweet acacia flowers. A spring breeze. Silky and light on the palate. Mixed with the aroma of gorgeous white peaches, soft rice flavor with silky oli, and a fresh, fizzy, firm bitterness that is refreshing and crisp. Sweet aroma and dryness, Easy to drink with no evaporation hamper. It is a spring sake. Is this "byang byang" noodle soup? It might go surprisingly well with the spicy flat noodles from the convenience store. (What's biang biang?) It suddenly became warm this weekend, I went to Tsukigase Plum Grove to feel spring, but the plum trees were still in bud. It's in the mountains, of course.

Another one this time. It is Takatsugawa by Fusozuru. It is from Shimane Prefecture. I saw Hiraccio-san drinking it and longed for it 🙌. First at room temperature. The color is a solid yellow. The aroma is mildly savory with a hint of maturity. It smells like caramel, soy sauce, and cream cheese. The mouthfeel is gentle. The palate is drowned in the complex flavor of aged rice with a moderate acidity. When heated up, it becomes smoother and more balanced, and you can just keep on drinking it. It has a relaxing and soothing taste. When tasted with a thick Shigaraki-ware sake cup, the warmth of the clay makes it taste even better. The warmth of the clay makes it even softer and happier 💕.

I really like it because it has both a natural, gentle umami and a clean, clean taste. When heated, the powdery part of the rice flavor increases in fluffiness, which is also 👍. It's delicious 😋. I was instantly captivated by the Aizu no Musume 💕.

This time it is a light nigori sake from Ippodo. This sake is from Fukushima Prefecture. Speaking of Risshun, it is Ippouki's light nigori. It's a little late, but I managed to get it! We have only one week left in February💦. Serve lightly chilled. It is a light nigori with an orange tinge. The bubbles are light and popping. The nose is sweet and juicy with a hint of pear, citrus acidity, green bamboo, and lime. From the gentle mouthfeel, the juicy pear-like flavor and the clear, smooth, creamy rice flavor flow smoothly through the palate. A light, juicy sake that flows like fresh, soft melted snow. The bitterness combined with the taste reminds me of the coming of spring 🌱 I'm glad I got to drink it 💕 When paired with salty rice crackers, The citrusy richness is enhanced. I wonder if the salty taste with dashi goes well with it?

This time it is Junmai sake from Kujira Masamune. Visit the Okayama Prefecture Fair at Kitahama Fermentation Plant. Thankfully, it's February and I'm extremely tired from the fever at my part-time job 😫. It would definitely be better for my body if I went home early, but my heart wanted to be healed by Okayama sake, so I stopped by 💕. It's times like that, isn't it? Light yellowish hue. Fresh banana on the top with a mild aroma of banana. Lightly green banana aroma and smooth rice flavor flow smoothly like water from the light mouthfeel. The alcohol content is so light that you would think it was light. (The alcohol content was 16 degrees Celsius💦.) This lightness... I paired this lightness with vinegared pickled mamakari, which is a typical Okayama dish. I thought the sake might be too light, but the pickled mamakari really brings out the flavor. I might like this kind of sake. Masamune sake is a spit point. More points for me personally 😆. Nice Masamune👍

Good morning, Maru-brother! Your comment solved the mystery! Maybe the reason I thought it was light in taste was because I was subconsciously comparing it to drunken whales from Kochi 🤔I heard that there used to be small whales in the Seto Inland Sea and they used to whaling 🐳.

This time it is a special junmai sake from Nabeshima. Nabeshima is a sake that I have not had the chance to encounter very often. I finally got it at a year-end party at Sake Kozo. I finally got it at the year-end party at Sake Takakura. I guess Tokujun is the most basic type of Nabeshima. It has a light greenish hue and fine bubbles in the glass. Fine bubbles in the glass. The top aroma is gorgeously sweet strawberry jam, blue melon, green bamboo, and powdery rice aroma. First, drink it cold. It has a light fizzy, refreshing, cider-like taste, with a hint of blue melon, and a bitter acidity that quickly fades away. The gap between the gorgeous fruity aroma and the dry, crisp taste is surprising. Serve lukewarm. The taste of koji is more full-bodied, and the sweetness is soft. The bitterness is very strong, and I prefer to drink it cold and crisp. I had never had much Nabeshima and imagined it to have a more fruity flavor. It is a perfect match for light Japanese food. Beautiful dry sake 🍶✨. It's been a cold day, so I've been cooped up at home. Cleaned up the house in the morning, and took a lazy nap. We had an early dinner and had a glass of Nabeshima. It's nice to have a day like this.

This time it is Hanaboe's Yamahai Honjozo. This sake is from Yoshino, Nara Prefecture. I took this sake home with me the other day when I participated in Hanaboe's sake brewery tour. First at room temperature. Yellow in color. The top aroma is soy sauce, caramel, freshly pounded rice cake, fermented butter, and even a hint of cypress. It has a creamy mouthfeel. The clear acidity of the Yamahai style develops into a complex umami and creamy rice flavor with a light soy sauce-like aroma, and then slowly fades away while leaving a lingering umami aftertaste that is typical of Hanaboe with its acidity and calm bitterness. When served warmed, The sharp angle of the acidity sharpens and the full-bodied sweetness of the umami is reflected in the taste, making it delicious when heated. The tour of Hanabatake's brewery included a full tour of every corner of the brewery, and we were even allowed to enter the koji room where the sake is being brewed. It was a rare opportunity to hear directly from Mr. Hashimoto, the company director, about his passion to express the taste that can only be achieved by brewing sake in the Yoshino region. If that is the case, take back the Natural Selection series! I was very rude to buy a bottle of Black Label, but I did, I wanted to enjoy it in many different ways 💕. I wanted to enjoy it in various ways💕. I recommend this bottle for a gentle taste of Hanaboe's character.

Hi Peco🌞. It's great that you show us the inside of the koji room. Do you check natto (fermented soybeans) for visitors? That's a very astringent choice of Yamahai Honjozo Peco 😊🍶.

Yogurt too 🤔 I heard that there are a lot of cases recently where the acidity of Yamahai does not come out easily, and the toji of Raku no Se blurted it out on his Instagram. I think it's possible that the recent yogurt has been affected by the low acidity.

Hi, Matsuchiyo-san. Is it hard to get acidity out of Yamahai? - I wonder if it is hard for lactobacilli to multiply even if it is Yamahai because of recent advances in hygiene control 🤔Raku no sei, I'll follow you too 😊.

This time it is Himonora. It is a sake made by Hakuin Masamune of Numazu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, It is a sake made to go with Numazu's dried fish. I have been looking for a chance to capture this sake ever since I first encountered it at Sake-no-wa 🎣. The impact of Himonora, a taste-confirming creature that even my roommates, who are not interested in sake, were attracted to. Various goods are also of interest. It is served at room temperature. The color is a light yellow. The initial aroma is of sweet malted rice and raisins. It has a mild mouthfeel, and the first impression is clean and dry. The raisin-like sweet and sour taste runs through lightly, and the umami flavor flows like a veil over the tongue and disappears with the astringent taste. Warm it up. The contrast between the rice and the sharp bitterness makes for a nice heated sake that is easy to drink. It has a light, matured feel to it, and I prefer to drink it hot or cold. Himonora (who happened to be at home) Drinking with dried hokke that happened to be at home. Hmmm? If you read the endorsement properly "I think it was horse mackerel before it evolved into himonora." Horse mackerel? Oh, shit!

This time it's an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake from Ippo Mi. This year's new sake 🍶✨ Finally got it! Due to the "Arabashiri" drama I thought it would be too late, I was relieved to get it 😌. I will drink it cold. The color is clear with a slight greenish tinge. The first aroma is of juicy green apples. Juicy green apple aroma. Slightly foamed and slightly thickened on the palate, giving the impression of lightness. From the freshness of green apples, there is a soft, orange-like fruity flavor with a creamy, buttery, candy-like richness. It finishes with a slight astringency. The taste has a variety of elements, from a lightness that flows smoothly to a core of strength. Then, on the fifth day. A melon-like juiciness is added, and the taste has a mild sweetness. Drink it over time, The sweetness of the honey seems to become more intense with each passing day. And when heated up, the sweetness is reduced and the umami is more pronounced. I end up heating it up. ♨️ No, no, but..., I'm always looking forward to seeing you in the lead role in a drama. I always look forward to seeing you in the lead role in a drama: ❣️ Great Ate 💕
