Are you studying sake?
I am doing a little bit of studying because I think that by knowing more about sake, I can enjoy and taste sake more.
However, whether it is due to aging or the fact that I am not very smart to begin with, my knowledge is not staying with me at all 🥲.
Nama-hashiroshi? Yamahai? Oh, I know, I know!
What did I do? I'll be like, "Oh, I don't know...
I attended a sake tasting & study session at a sake bar I frequent and learned a lot!
The first drink there was Shinomine 🥂 a brand I wanted to drink: ❗️
Sweet aroma like peach and cotton candy 😍Slightly effervescent, fresh, sweet and delicious on the palate ✨and a dignified kick at the end.
It was delicious and to my liking: ☺️
I'm learning as I drink so I can't remember it all?
Good morning, Hachibei! ☀️
I understand! I try to remember but I can't, and even the things I thought I remembered I forget 😭Hachibe-san, I think you've come this far 🙏Good luck!
This spring sake is delicious 💕
Good morning, Pon, good morning 🌞 early in the morning ❗️
Yes, it is! I forget what I studied and memorized so quickly 😩.
I can easily remember the brands I want to drink...but it's because I'm greedy 🤣.
Good morning, Hachibe-san! (^o^)
I know exactly how you feel.
I know that many people know a lot about wakunodera, of course...(^_^;)
I simply have to decide if it is to my taste or not (lol).
Hi Tomoyuki Kumagai 😁.
There are so many people who really know a lot about it, and I'm inspired to study too! I'm inspired by ❗️ where are you going for ❓🤣
I'm not sure if I like it or not, but that's where I'm going ✨.
Hachibe-san konban-ha!
Sorry for the delay💦.
I'm studying at my own pace, but I think it's good if you enjoy learning 😊.
No matter how many times I fail, I think failure is part of learning ❗️😊.
Erin, good evening 🌙
No problem - thanks for your comment 😊I love sake, so it's not hard for me to read the same part over and over again because I can't remember 😁.
I will learn from your posts too 😚.
What? ⁉️ A liquor store in the city is a special distributor of Houou Mita. ⁉️
I didn't know that. ❗️I immediately flew to the liquor store I wanted to visit. 🏃♂️💨
Hououmida lined up in the fridge...this is a sight for sore eyes... 🤩.
The Anniversary was still left, so I bought it!
Wow, overwhelmingly gorgeous✨Mild and gentle sweetness. I can't get enough of it 🥰.
Perfect to drink on a special occasion!
Anyway, it was delicious. ☺️ happy~!
Hi Hachibei, ☀️
It's great when you can find a special distributor for the sake you want to drink 😆 I remembered this Houou Mita was gently sweet when I read your review 😄👍.
I have a strong image of one-cup drinks being consumed by dirty old men in the park in broad daylight...
I don't have a good image of it.
But...! But after drinking this, my impression has changed!
Ohmine is still sweet and yummy! And the cup is cute 😍.
It would be great if I could drink it while viewing cherry blossoms!
But you can drink so much of it, 100mm isn't enough 😂.
Erin! Good evening 🤣
I almost blew out the Houou Mita I'm drinking right now - ‼️ that's a double-take thing lol!
No, no, no, Eririn is a great sake lover, I'd rather have her drink it as soon as possible 😁.
At a standing bar in the neighborhood.
I had never had Kouko before, so I asked for it and drank it!
Fruity and gorgeous aroma like apple and muscat 😍
Fine and fine microbubbles 😁.
It was so good I want to drink it again ☺️
Kouei Kiku's newest 🤩 sake!
The goal of this sake is to create a bold and mellow flavor!
It is indeed bold and mellow! But it also has acidity and a modern feel 🥰.
The samurai on the back label is said to be inspired by the moment of the young resolution of Takanobu Ryuzoji, a feudal lord from Hizen, which is cool!
Houou Mita Goshinshu ver.
This is Houou Mita, which was dedicated at the prayer for the beginning of my bad luck and brought back to me by the spiritual power of God.
At the New Year's party at work, I opened this sake and people who rarely drink sake said "it's easy to drink ❕ it's delicious ❕". ☺️
It says "dry" but I think it was sweet-tasty and easy to drink ❕I was drinking too much and don't remember much...
Hello Hachibei 😃
I'm going to have a bad year later in life, and I'm not sure if I should go to the bad luck festival to make a reason to drink alcohol 😓I'm not thinking bad luck, I'm just being punished 😵.
Good evening, Mr. Noodle Sake King!
No, no, no, no... lol, it's gojinshu, so it should be okay even if you have an evil thought 😁 Since we have the opportunity to buy sake by the bottle, let's have the divine power pour into a good one ❕.
This Sentori "Asahi" is made from "Asahi" edible rice produced in Okayama Prefecture.
Asahi rice? 🤔
Research shows that Asahi is a rare species of rice grown in Okayama Prefecture that has not been artificially bred, and is the ancestor of Koshihikari and Sasanishiki.
It also seems to be known as an excellent edible rice that sushi chefs and chefs at high-class restaurants nominate, but it takes a lot of time and effort to cultivate, and the number of producers has decreased so much that it is also called "phantom rice". Anyway, it is said to be a delicious rice.
Well, how about the sake 🤔?
Oh! First comes the attack of strong acidity typical of Sengoku. Then a pleasant sweetness, followed by a gentle astringency to finish 😊.
The sake is also good!
The label on the back says "limited brewing" and I don't know what is limited about it, but it makes me think "I have to buy it ❕", "limited" is the most tempting word 😍.
First snow in Oze😍.
Aroma like apple honey, vigorous sweetness 😚.
It's a very fancy looking sake that goes down a treat 🍶.
The label on the back says "# class of the class girls # dazzling aura" and that's exactly what it is 🤣.
I could understand why everyone rated it so highly 😁 It was delicious 😊.
I can't help but wonder how they can get such an aroma and taste from rice🤔.
This year, I went to the shrine to pray for the beginning of a new year of bad luck, and on the way home I received this sacred wine in addition to good luck charms and money.
Goshinshu is "alcohol that has been offered to the god and lowered" and seems to contain the spirit of the god🤔Goshinshu can be any kind of alcohol.
It seems that you can drink Mikami sake anytime, so let's drink it before something bad happens! Let's get the divine power! Power❗️
It has little aroma and sweetness. It is like old-fashioned sake.
The moment I drank it, I remembered the first time my senior took me to a food stall when I was young.
He said, "Oden, just the way you like it. And warmed sake."
Dad: "Yes, please."
I "...(nervous)."
The old man bluntly put a glass of beer in front of me, took a "chirori" from the end of the oden pot, and again bluntly poured sake into the glass. The counter was soaked with sake.
I drank it, and wow! I knew I was not good at sake!
I remember thinking, "I'm not good at sake after all!
But drinking sake in that atmosphere was great 😁.
This year I have a bad year, and this year I am in the 48th place of the lowest blood type horoscope, but this sake must have purified me ❗️Power‼️.
Hi Hachibei 😃
When I saw your post, I thought that this year is the main year of bad luck for me too, but then I looked up last year 😅this year is the second year of bad luck 😓.
I wish you and your family a happy new year 😌.
Thank you, Noodle Drink King 😊.
You got over the big bad year without even realizing it...that's a blessing 🤣I wish you and your family the best of luck for one more year of bad luck ☺️.
Hi Hachibei 😊
I see you're having a bad year 😳️I'm so heartened that you've been exorcised from the ministry! And I love the fact that you have a sake 👍I wish you a peaceful and safe year 🙏.
Thank you, Pon-chan 😊
I've entered the bad luck season this year 😰I had an exorcism and drank some sake, so I think I'm okay now, but I must drink some sake again tonight to purge the evil spirits 🤤🤤.
Happy New Year 🌅🎍.
I'm looking forward to drinking good sake again this year based on your reviews 😁.
I have been forced to play jump rope and badminton with my children during this year-end and New Year's holidays.
I am feeling the decline of my body... 😮💨I used to be able to do more when I was younger... 😮💨I'm just an old man... I'm not sure what to say....
New Year's Day is a dream day when you can drink alcohol with your morning osechi and no one will say anything about it 🙂.
The first ni rabbit zodiac bottle 🐇 zodiac bottle was waiting in the fridge for this day. It's so cute😍.
Fresh and beautiful sake❗️So easy to drink and very tasty‼️Fit for the first bottle of the new year✨!
I hope to drink good sake again this year 😊.
Happy New Year, Hachibei-san!
Physical fitness is important during the year-end and New Year's holidays (laughs).
It is thanks to good health that we can enjoy drinking alcohol.
If I don't get on my aerobike, my weight will soon be in trouble (laugh).
Happy New Year, Mr. Kumagai 😁I'll take this as an opportunity to continue jumping rope to drink good sake...I don't think I'll continue 🤣.
I look forward to working with you again this year 😊.
Happy New Year, Pon-chan 😁 Sake is a special drink after sweating it out 🤣.
Thanks to you, my body has been rattled since New Year's 😭.
I️ look forward to working with you again this year!
Hachibe-san
|Holy shit!
I heard jumping rope is good for weight loss because it's a full body workout 😁.
I was drinking two hare zodiac labels 😊.
I'm looking forward to this year too!
Erin, Happy New Year 😁I have to go on a diet, so good luck with jumping rope....I'll do my best... 😅 for a good drink ❗️
This ni rabbit is delicious 🐇.
I look forward to working with you this year 😊
It's still just shipped out, Tobiraman Happy New Born, orikagarami...
It's good that local sake is readily available 😁.
First of all, the label is just beautiful✨I think some people buy it because of this label? 🤔
I drank it right away!
The aroma is like cooked rice ☺️.
The flavor and clean sweetness spreads in the mouth, and from the second half, the firm acidity and astringency that reminds me of citrus will wash away the rest of the taste, it's pleasant 😊.
I think this year's bottle of Hiran will be my closing bottle!
Hi Hachibei ☀️
You have the local advantage 😁 I envy you ✨It's not easy to see you 💦and you're cagey!
I heard that this is the last one and I hope to see you again next year 😊.
Thank you, Pon 😊Thank you for the drink here, no one had checked in yet this year, so I posted it in a hurry 😙.
I look forward to seeing you next year too 🙇♂️Have a great year 😊.
I noticed that I didn't post the second bottle of Haneya, a tax return gift.
The aroma is mild, and the sake has a petit maltiness.
It's a sweet and tasty ministry.
But due to my lack of experience, I couldn't really tell the difference between it and the sparkling fire 😥.
Hello! KOUEIGIKU is a lightly cloudy version of Aizan!
KOUEIGIKU Aizan is available in two types this year: Sumi-shu (clear sake) and Usunigori (light nigori), and the way to distinguish them is that the crown of Sumi-shu is gold and the crown of Usunigori is silver.
I didn't know that when I bought it, and they look exactly the same! I couldn't tell the difference 🤣.
Then, I poured it slowly into a glass and drank only the top clear liquid....
Nice aroma like muscat ☺️Petite and strong acidity 😊.
Next I slowly stirred and mixed the oli and drank it. Oh! The sweetness, umami, and mellowness of the rice increased, and the harmony with the sourness is exquisite❗️Uh, yum 😍.
Kouei Kiku really tastes good no matter which one you drink ‼️.
Well, yesterday was the last day of work, let's start cleaning today 🧹😠!
Hi Hachibei, good evening 🌙
I see you have a light nigori 😳️‼️When I tasted the Aizan from Haro last year, I found it sweeter than the others😊I saw your review and it looks more balanced and delicious💕I want to drink it 😆.
I changed my name to hiragana!
I hope to see you soon!
I happened to be able to purchase this sake on a business trip on December 9, and I was thinking ❗️I'll save this sake for the last bottle of the year.
...I can't wait at all 😂I couldn't even wait until Christmas 🤣I know it's going to be delicious ‼️.
It's delicious after all.
It was my first time to try this chrysanthemum and it's the best 🥰.
It has a pineapple aroma and is sweet and delicious 😍.
It's too bad you can't buy it locally 😭
Marry Xmas✨🎄🎅, Hachibe-san!
I see you changed your name to hiragana! Please keep up the good work 😊.
I'm jealous of you because I don't get to see your chrysanthemum 😁.
Merry Xmas🎅🎁, Pon-chan!
I changed my name because I couldn't convert my old name in one shot and I thought it was taking too much time for people to comment 😅.
It was just as delicious as it was popular☺️It was gone so quickly❗️.
The other day, I went to Oita on a business trip🚌.
Since I was going to Oita Prefecture, I bought a bottle of Oita's local sake "Chiebijin" which I had been interested in for a long time 😊.
I had heard that Chiebijin is fruity and delicious, so I had high expectations 😁.
Refreshing 🎶 aroma like fresh apples.
Gentle rice sweetness and beautiful acidity✨It's sweet but goes down easy 😃.
It's my kind of sweet and tasty 😚.
I also went to visit hell in between work 😉 The picture is from Umi Jigoku 🤳.
Erin, good evening 🌙
The second day was even better with the corners removed🎶.
I knew it was hot ‼️Beppu has many other hells like the bright red Pond of Blood 😱.
I️ started tasting sake in February this year and finally 50 check-ins in about 10 months.
It's not easy to make progress 😢.
I'm totally beefing it up with a glass of sake every day to keep me happy 🐮.
I'm still a little chick 🐣 as everyone I see on Sake no Wa has a few hundred check-ins.
I will continue to enjoy learning from your posts 🙇♂️.
Next time, I'm aiming for 100 check-ins💯!
Now, here is Ohroku from Shimane Prefecture🍶🍶.
Pouring it into a glass, it is golden and beautiful.
The taste is sour and bitter at first, but then the rich flavor rushes in.
It's the first time I️ drank it, but it has a great sense of maturity.
I usually drink sweet and tasty sake, but this kind of sake is also delicious 😋.
As expected from the King of Shimane ✨.
Congratulations on your 50th check-in, Hachibei🎉!
I've never even seen Oroku or Jodi, but I'd like to try them 😌I can feel how delicious they are 😉 Let's keep drinking all kinds of delicious sake ✨.
Thank you very much, Menshuoh 😊.
I almost gave up on Oroku, I couldn't find it in my hometown, but a friend in Shimane Prefecture gave it to me ✨It tasted even better on the second day, so please try to find it and drink it ❗️.
