MimurosugiDio Abita-ディオアビータ

Imanishi Shuzo Nara

Joker

Today we will have the very popular "Dio Abita" from Imanishi Shuzo's Mimuro Sugi and Romain series 🍶. The name "Dio Abita" means "God resides" in Italian, referring to the fact that it is brewed with subterranean water from Mount Miwa, where the god of sake resides. Elegant and fruity aroma, it is a melon in your mouth 🍈No, this is a melon for real ☺️ No, no, really (persistent)! It has a slight effervescence, sweet and juicy, and low alcohol content, so you'll be drinking a lot of it✨. The aftertaste is very refreshing and easy to drink 😋. I love it even if you're not used to drinking sake. Oh...oh no, it's gone 💧.

NANIKONO OISHI LIQUID ✨ Ummm 😋 The first thing that catches my eye is the blue color of the bottle and label. Then the word "Laughing Four Seasons" in gold... the font is also stylish ✨✨. When poured into a glass, it has a refreshing aroma like green apple, and when you put it in your mouth, the elegant sweetness spreads from a gentle and smooth mouthfeel. ☺️ It is very light and goes down your throat with a hint of sourness and bitterness in the aftertaste 🍶🍶. No, it was really easy to drink and delicious. There are 5 colors in this series, including blue, and I would like to try them all someday 😋.

It's still as stately as ever 🍶. Even though it promises to be delicious even before you drink it, it still makes you excited: ☺️ After enjoying the fruity and gorgeous aroma, take another sniff... and smile 😄. Smile again in your mouth 😄! It's still delicious ✨✨. The mouthfeel is so smooth and the umami and sweetness of the rice is perfect ✨✨. I feel like it perfectly brings out the potential of Sake Mirai 🌾🌾. It's rich, sweet, and fruity, but it also has a sour, astringent, and clean finish. It finishes nicely ✨ In my opinion, one of the charms of "Jyushiyo" is its soft texture and fine texture ♬. I am feeling happy with a delicious meal and the best sake 🥰.

津島屋外伝純米大吟醸 49才の桜

Miyozakura Jozo Gifu

10/18/2025, 2:27:57 PM

Joker

Here is the last bottle for the "Tsushimaya" drinking comparison 🍶. I'll say it first... It's so delicious✨✨ And super sweet 😋😋. This brand was highly recommended by the owner of the sake shop (my uncle). This series, named after the toji's age, has continued for 19 years since the former toji started "28 years old spring" as the culmination of one year's work! However, he retired at the end of "Spring of Age 46" and the series came to an end. The current brewer, in response to strong requests from fans of the series to restart it, has relaunched it as "48-Sai no Sakura". Incidentally, this "~'sakura" is a draft sake for spring shipment, but there is also a fire-aged type called "~'sokoro" 🍶. This year, the aged "49 years old heart" should be available in stores from this month... I haven't gotten my hands on it yet, but if I find it, I'll make love to you and buy it. Yes, I know it's a long explanation (actually my uncle's explanation was really long too lol), but let's drink it 🍶. The aroma is rather subdued, but elegant and fruity like muscat ✨. The aroma is a little reserved, but the flavor is elegant and fruity like muscat 🍶. Highly aggressive with 48% Yamada-Nishiki rice polishing ratio. And the gentle acidity makes my mouth happy🥰. It is a very satisfying sake that I want to drink every year 🍶.

Tsushimaya" drinking comparison Vol. 2 🍶. The pink letters on the black bottle looks great ✨. Looks kinda strong lol ...... Hmmm? I thought I've seen this somewhere... but it looks like Nabeshima Purple 😆 That one is purple, but both are cool 💕. Since it's a Junmai Daiginjo, I'm going to pour it into a wine glass 🥂. The aroma is mild but gorgeous and full of fruitiness like pineapple and melon 🍍. The sweetness and umami of OMACHI comes through in every sip ♬. The taste is clear with no cloying taste and the balance with the acidity that is not too strong is also exquisite ✨. Delicious 😋! The aftertaste was a little strange right after opening the bottle, but after a day, it became more pronounced. But after a day, the corners were removed and it became mellower 🍶. The richness or umami flavor is more than the first Jungin, Miyamanishiki 😋.

Starting today, we will be drinking "Tsushimaya" in three consecutive sessions 🍶🍶🍶🍶. The first one is a new sake, but we dare to call it "Makuhari", which is very chic 😊. I'll make love to you with its gentle and refreshing aroma. The freshness of the sake and the lightness of the sweetness and umami, despite the fact that it is a pure sake 😋. I think it's a bit on the sweet side, but it finishes with a firm sour aftertaste that is refreshing ✨. Very easy to drink, elegant and beautiful 🍶. Very tasty 😆.

I wanted to make love to a nice "Saku" today, so I went to the fridge for 7 seconds...............................Saku was sleeping at the bottom of the fridge. As you all know, this "M" is a special edition based on "Saku Enochi" 🍶. And what's more... this visual is 🍾 too cool lol! The pattern is also stylish ✨✨. Let's get to it! When you open the bottle, it will make a pleasant 💨 sound and pour into a wine glass 🥂. It's unfiltered and directly pumped ✨The fresh and fruity aroma is brilliant ☺️ The first sip of this wine will hit you 🥰. It's supposed to be fire-aged, but it's so fresh! I think they forgot to fire-roast it. The sweetness and umami are pushed to the forefront, but the acidity gently comes out and brings it all together nicely 🍶. Well, it's delicious 😋It also hit me right in the middle of my 💓. Tonight I had it with Wakasagi Tempura and both were delicious✨.

Kudo to Kudo, the pink label is cute 🥰. This is Junmai Daiginjo and I believe it costs about 1500 yen...anyway, it's one of the best cospa class ✨. Fruity and sweet aroma as always ✨ Gentle on the palate, with a sweetness and umami that is light and easy to drink 🍶. Good acidity but with a clean aftertaste that makes it easy to drink anyway (for the second time) ✨. I would recommend this sake to beginning sake drinkers (great price and quality) 😊.

It's finally autumn 🍂. However, it is still hot during the daytime... I'll be drinking red dragonflies while feeling the autumn 🍶. The sweet and sourness that is typical of Senkyoku is like a white wine 😋 as you taste it with a slight muscat flavor. It is light at the beginning, but soon the flavor and crisp acidity will come rushing in. It has a slight sweetness and bitterness with a hint of fruitiness that quickly fades away. ☺️ It has a slightly dry impression but is very easy to drink and refreshing 🍶.

We will be having a bottle of Kuroryu "Ichchorai Jungin" by Kuroryu Shuzo. It is made from 55% polished Gohyakumangoku rice from Fukui Prefecture and has an alcohol content of 15.5 degrees Celsius and a sake alcohol content of +4.5 degrees Celsius. Modest and elegant yet fruity aroma 😊. Not flashy, but gives the impression that it brings out the umami of the rice well 🌾. It has a soft and mellow mouthfeel, with a hint of sweetness and a little bit of acidity, making it a slowly delicious sake that you won't get tired of drinking 🍶. Very well-balanced, elegant and full of flavor, with a strong umami and a clean aftertaste ✨.

Junmai Daiginjo🍶 made from Yamagata Prefecture's stable Fuji Shuzo's "Eiko Fuji" using Yamagata Prefecture's "Setsuwakamaru" sake rice. And it's unfiltered, unpasteurized sake 😋. There's no reason it can't be delicious, and yet somehow it was left behind at one of the mass market sake stores, with a half price sticker ......💧. No, no, no...what? Seriously? Are you sure? I'll take it. ☺️ No questions asked, thankfully I bought it immediately ✨ The aroma is mellow and fresh right from the moment you open the bottle. The mouthfeel is pitch-perfect, the ginjo aroma is gorgeous, and the mellow sweetness is just ✨✨✨. Perfect as a food sake, but also satisfying on its own 😋✨. Sake level of -8...sweet and tasty in the middle ✨✨. It's like a delicious sake that you can linger on while drinking 😆. This sake is only shipped once a year and the arrival of this sake is in October ♬♬. If you see this sake, you should definitely buy it immediately 🥰.

We were finally able to bring Soga to our home ✨I don't need to explain anymore...but I will in case you're wondering lol. Obuse Winery, a wine farm in Nagano Prefecture, produces sake for only a few weeks in the winter, so only a very small amount is produced🍶. Moreover, it is not sold online at all, and can only be sold at special dealers where the quality of the sake is carefully controlled! By the way, "sogapeur et fis" means "father and son of the Soga family" in French! Finally, the bottle is opened. It is a winery, after all 🍷It is a cork... The aroma is mild yet fruity ✨✨. One sip and it's "mmmm 😆"! I tasted it with my wife and we were both raving about it ♬♬. It's very elegant, soft and amazingly smooth, right in the middle of my favorite sweet and savory 😋😋. I love the mild acidity and the mild flavor and fruitiness 🍏. I didn't know you could make such quality as this as a hobby...well, thank you so much ✨✨✨. I'll definitely be purchasing this next time 🍶🍶.

Sumikawa Shuzojo Yamaguchi

I saw this bright red Otafuku in the liquor store... and my eyes accidentally locked with those of Toyo Bijin... 😓. The description said, "It gives the impression of being quite dry, but when you actually drink it, you will find a surprisingly mellow umami flavor..." So I inadvertently bought it again 💰. It's a gorgeous, fruity, sweet wine.... It's not just dry, it's "very dry," so I was curious to see how good it was! Long preamble... Here we go! The aroma is not that harsh, softly fruity and nice ✨. The moment you put it in your mouth, the sourness and bitterness are quite strong 😅. The sweetness is slightly sweet with umami, but the spiciness dominates the palate and goes straight down your throat, leaving you with a sharp finish. It's a little too late to say this, but I heard that it has a sake degree of +15, so it's quite a big volume. Yes, the sign was true... To be honest, this is how I feel as a lover of sweet sake, but I think it is not only dry but also has a good umami taste and is very drinkable 🍶. I think it can be very tasty depending on the meal it is served with 😊.

Good evening Joker 😃. I'm attracted to this face and the big dry 🤗. Fruity, aromatic and dry is the type we like 😋 to see the signage 😋 I'd like to try it!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby ✨ I was struck by the smug look on your face lol. It has a certain umami in its dryness, and unlike the usual light dryness, it is a rich dryness 😆. I really hope Jay & Nobby will drink this one!

The mornings and evenings have become cooler and much more comfortable 😊. I'll make love to you The label on the back reads "the ultimate food sake"...yes, let's taste it with all our hearts! The aroma is fresh and unobtrusive: ☺️ When you put it in your mouth, you can taste the umami and the acidity at the same time. It has a good sharpness with a hint of sweetness and bitterness ✨. On its own, I personally thought it was quite acidic, but with a meal, it goes perfectly ✨✨. This is the ultimate food sake 😆. I love to make love to you! By the way, if you let it sit for 3 days, the acidity softens a bit and it can be enjoyed on its own (no, it's a food sake 💧)

Today's first drink outing... or rather, only the first lol! This time we will be drinking a restaurant-only sake, Kuroryu's Crystal Dragon 😆. Actually, I had a bottle of Kuroryu Jungin before this one, but it came in a tokkuri (sake bottle), so I couldn't take a picture of it 💧. So next time, I asked for a glass ❗️ and also a bottle ❗️ and they brought it ✨✨Thank you! And that's the end of the preamble... The aroma is discreet but refreshingly fruity and clean. The mouthfeel was very smooth and crystal like the name ✨✨ I can taste the sweetness and acidity, but then it finishes crisp with a nice bitterness 😋. Very easy to drink and clear impression ☺️ I made love to you and enjoyed it! By the way, Kuroryu Jungin is a little drier than Crystal Dragon, and while you can taste the umami, the aftertaste is more acidic and crisp. I think there are different tastes here, but I personally prefer the Crystal one 😋.

The lady at the liquor store recommended Dai-Shichi's Nama-Hashiroshi Nama-Hara Sake🍶 to me. The aroma is subdued, with a robust acidity that comes from the moment you take a sip. It has a freshness that is typical of nama-shu and a soft sweetness that spreads in the mouth 😊. It has a deep flavor created by the strong acidity that only a sake brewed with a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast yeast can produce. The aftertaste is a lingering sourness and bitterness that gradually fades away. I have the impression that it was a little heavy for me, a lover of sweet and fruity tastes, but if you like it, you will love this sake 🍶.

The black bottle and label are cool ✨. And who can read the "100" in Hyakushun at first sight? Spring is pretty good too lol. No, I'm not being stingy, yes 💦 the typeface is cool 😅 Immediately after opening the bottle, you can taste elegant fruit aroma reminiscent of melon and peach ♬. I also feel a gentle gasiness, but the soft mouthfeel, delicate flavor, and acidity are too exquisite to drink without hesitation 🍶. A few days later, when you open it again, the aroma is mild and the gasiness is almost gone, but the taste is more mellow and the sweetness is enhanced... No, it's really delicious 😋. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes sweet fruity wine✨ I'll make love to you and make you happy
