Miyakobijin山廃 山田錦 特別純米 風乃都美人

When my wife and I went for a one-day drive to Awaji Island on a holiday in October, we thought Awaji Island is famous for "Miyako Bijin" and bought some near the brewery 🍶🍶. The taste was 180 degrees different from the "Miyako Bijin" that I have been drinking so far. Yes, it tastes very similar to the "Katori" that my brother who lives in Chiba used to bring as a gift 😄🍶. I first drank it cold, but it was still quite peculiar to me, so I tried heating it up. I think it's perfect for me, but what do you think? I'm not sure what you think 🍶🍶🍶😄

My 7th Father's Day gift, finally turned around 😅🍶. Simple container, but the taste is also simple 😄🍶. It goes in smooth and easy 😄🍶🍶. I think it would go well with anything. Today I enjoyed my dinner with grilled salmon with sake lees, and it was quite good 🍶.

I bought this at Kumamoto station on a recent trip to Kyushu. I asked the shopkeeper for a recommendation and he recommended this one. 🍶. This is my first time to try Kumamoto sake 😊. It is light on the palate, well balanced and easy to drink 🍶😊. This sake is only sold in the prefecture, so I guess I was lucky to come across it? I only had a taste of it today, so next time I will enjoy it while savoring it 😅🍶.

Fifth bottle for Father's Day gift 🍶. It has been a long time since I have had sake from Ehime Prefecture. The design on the cup suggests that it would be best to drink it during the cherry blossom viewing season, but when I received it, it was just before summer, so I opened it thinking it would be better to leave it until next spring 😅🍶It has no peculiarities, just a normal taste, but it has a clean aftertaste and is easy to drink. I have 7 more cups of sake that I got 😊, so I'm going to drink them impatiently 🍶😊.

Fourth bottle as a Father's Day gift 🍶. It has a mild taste 😙It's refreshing and easy to drink and before I knew it, it was gone 😅🍶I've had other sake from Hokkaido, but this is the first one I've started to keep a record of. There are many other brands available and I would like to try them little by little. 😄🍶

This is the second bottle 🍶 I purchased on a trip to Hida Takayama. The best way to drink it is to warm it up to lukewarm, but I had it at room temperature first 🍶✨. It has a nice firm rice flavor and just the right amount of acidity 😊🍶It has a sharp and clean aftertaste that I like 😄🍶. Today we had a special bento box made by a famous ryotei in Kyoto as a side dish ✨. It was a collaboration of Hida sake and Kyoto cuisine, but I think sake is the best match for Japanese cuisine 😄✨Next time I would like to try it lukewarm 😉🍶. The rice flavor is enhanced when served lukewarm, and as recommended, it is very flavorful 🍶😄.

Autumn, September, is the season of "akiagari" or hiyaoroshi 😄🍶. We haven't had Eikun for a long time. My wife won it in a lottery at a co-op's joint purchase. Kyoto's sake is often very elegant and delicious, but I realized how delicious it is again ✨😄🍶. It's a delicious sake with a hint of sweetness, but surprisingly sharp and crisp with no aftertaste ✨.

This is the second bottle of the 12-bottle set for Father's Day gift. I have had Tsururei from Aoki Shuzo before, but this is my first time to try Yukio 😄🍶. It is a light, dry and refreshing sake, like Niigata sake, that goes well with everything 😄🍶🍶It is light and dry, but it also has a hint of sweetness, giving it a deep flavorful sake feeling. Today I enjoyed a cold shabu shabu with agu pork and yellowfin tuna sashimi for dinner, and the best match was the yellowfin tuna sashimi 😄🍶.

I recently traveled to Hida Takayama. This is one of the two bottles I bought on that trip ✨. The aroma is fruity and the mouthfeel is mild, but surprisingly it doesn't linger. It's a very nice bottle 🍶😄. Today, I grilled Hida beef I bought in Takayama with Hoba Miso and served it with my dinner 🍶😙(a bit extravagant though--😅🍶) The delicious fat of the Hida beef was washed away easily and I realized that Hida sake is the best for Hida beef. 🙇✨🤣🍶

This is the first bottle of a set of 12 that my daughter-in-law gave me for Father's Day 🍶. I drank it with mackerel simmered in miso today and I think it's the best match 😄🍶. The cup is also a nice touch, as Shizuoka Prefecture is known for its soccer 😄. I'll be uploading the next 12 bottles as we go along ✨.

It is a junmai ginjo sake brewed entirely with Koshihikari rice, and has a full flavor with no harshness. I have always thought that most of the sake produced in Chiba Prefecture is quite assertive. I don't mean to sound rude, but I was surprised that such a sake existed in Chiba Prefecture.

I bought this wine the other day at the Hankyu Department Store in Umeda, Osaka, where it was on sale. I did not think so when I tasted it, but it is quite tasty, with a mild taste and a delicious rice flavor. My daughter's family had just returned home, so I shared a glass with my daughter-in-law, and we found that about two thirds of the bottle was gone.
