Yesterday was Manzai the Second. Personally, I like Mr. Nishimori of Monster Engine, so I wanted him to do well, but he was scattered in the first round 😭 For me, that first round was like a final, but as the tournament went on, the lineup was just as my husband expected. I think all of the older comedians are funny 🤣 so I feel like The Second is a stable laugh. It's just right for watching while drinking ❣️ While watching "The Second," I drank a bottle of Yumezumi's "origin," which I bought on a trip to Kanazawa. As it was my first time drinking Yumezumi itself, I took a sip with trepidation. It was too acidic! Sour 😫. That was my first contact💦. I really can't think of anything else to say about it except that it is sour 💦💦I looked it up and found that it is sweet and sour, but as long as it was cold, the sweetness was overshadowed. As the temperature loosens up a bit, the sweetness comes out and it's nice. When this happens, it tastes like the La Jomom Koji Triple I drank earlier. It was a little sweet and overwhelmingly sour, but delicious 😋💕 Such was the flavor of this dream brew. He liked it: ❤️👍 It's deep, Ishikawa ✨.

I was discussing dinner with my daughter in the morning and she requested noodles. It was hot in Osaka today, so we decided to have grated buckwheat noodles with zaru and tempura, and the husband opened a bottle of La Jomom😋. This is the standard line of La Jomom. When I took a sip, the juiciness and bitterness came as if they were fighting each other. I guess it's the bitterness at the end by a small margin. This is the one I like - ❤️ delicious 🤤💕. Best match for tempura and matcha salt 🍤 I wonder if the bitterness is linked 🤫 It also goes well with dried plums 🥰. We enjoyed it until it was empty😊.

As it was Mother's Day, we invited my husband's parents to a sushi festival at our house. To go with the sushi, we will be serving Atago no Matsu, a limited edition from Waya, which we purchased on a previous trip back home to Bulgaria. For seafood, I thought Shinzawa Sake Brewery would be the best choice. This Atago no Matsu is 39% polished. The aroma is not so strong, but it has no acidity but is refreshingly juicy. There are no peculiarities, so it doesn't interfere with the sushi, making it an excellent match 😋💕. Delicious - as expected👍!

With the momentum of a lighter heart thanks to all of you, I did my customary photo sorting on my day off. This one looks like it was taken in March. Grapes by Hirarok🍇. LAYER drank both Apple🍎 and Pear🍐 and both were so good, so this is another safe bet. Even 2 months ago, I still remember the aroma of this grape. I was like 💦 "What the heck is a grape? It tastes like a juice-like grape liquor. But it was juicy, sweet, and refreshing, without the heaviness of red wine. It was a horrible, or rather too delicious, drink that was easy to drink on its own and finished in no time at all 😋💕🍇.

It's been a month since I transferred and I'm depressed with all the issues I have to deal with 🥲The only thing that inspires me now is the label behind the two hares 😭 Only those who chase two hares will get two hares It means don't run away, take on the challenge, right? If you want to grab something in this hand. Yes, I will do my best 🫡. Putting aside my blabbering in the name of preface, this Dewa Sanzan's Ni-Rabbit was spiffy! It has a strong aroma reminiscent of muscat and a light mouthfeel. It has a strong aroma reminiscent of Muscat and a light mouthfeel, with a refreshing acidity at the bottom of the sweetness and umami. This is good, too good 😋💚. After swallowing, the bitter flavor I like comes in and disappears nicely. I really feel the duality on the label! Interesting and delicious... I'm happy 🥰.

On the second day of my Golden Week trip to Kanazawa, I went to Kenrokuen Garden from 7:00 in the morning. The last time I visited Kenrokuen garden 15 years ago was in winter, when it was covered with snow, so it was very atmospheric. Considering the traffic jam, we decided to go home after lunch, bought some sasazushi for dinner, and headed home. On the way home, we stopped at Eshitoko, a facility of Kuroryu in Fukui Prefecture, and at the brewery of Shichibonspear, and really enjoyed ourselves while lazing around 🚗. After returning home, we had sasazushi and this time's trophy, shunshin. This was recommended as a sake from Ishikawa at Sake Senan. It is 100% locally produced Gohyakumangoku and has a gentle sourness, sweetness, and endless refreshing ‼️ Delicious😍To use an analogy that I don't know if it fits, the finish takes the melon feeling out of Hakurakusei. What a lovely food wine💕 The sasazushi was soooo good and a wonderful end to a wonderful trip 😊. By the way, the 4th picture is a road sign I found near the Shichihonjari brewery in Shiga. Mario ⁉️ was just going in with us, asking what we should pay attention to 🤣.

It's raining on the last day of Golden Week ☔. My daughter is in Wakayama for 3 days for her club training camp, so my wife and I went to Kanazawa 🚗, which I have wanted to visit for a long time. Of course, my purpose was to visit the Kozukumon gate at Kanazawa station. My husband's goal was to go to Sake Senan Suijo. I made sure to hold the Kodo gate in my hand 👍. We had said we would leave early in the morning to avoid traffic, but we woke up an hour earlier than scheduled 💦 like a couple of elementary school kids before a field trip. We arrived in Kanazawa smoothly and went to the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art and the Ishikawa Prefectural Library. This library is the best ❤️ At Iori Suijo, we got a lot of kikhotsule and Ishikawa's local sake👍I'm looking forward to opening them❤️ In the evening, we went to an izakaya that was also recommended by Sake Sen-an 🏮. The ramen here with horse mackerel vinegar and Kanazawa oden was great 😋. In the midst of all this, I'd like to introduce you to a non-erotic pink first love, Fudo-san. This was really strawberry 🍓 sweet and sour ❤️❤️ low al so Swissigbigbigbigbigbig. The strength of the immovable lurks somewhere in the background, and the finish is refreshingly sweet and too delicious. It was casual 😊.

I was sorting through my photos and found the ones I drank in January, so I'll try to write about them based on memories I've almost lost. At the time, Yukigasumi no Sato was the talk of the town in the Tohoku area. It seems that the way it was treated like this is hot right now tickled my husband's inquisitive mind, and it appeared in our house. This new sake from Aizu Musume was quite fresh. The aroma of rice came with a hint of bitterness and a sharp aftertaste. Rather than being fruity, it was more like the sweetness and aroma of rice spreading in the mouth from start to finish. This is also delicious 😋. I think I liked the taste 🩷. My first Aizu Musume, I had a good impression of it: ❣️

The aroma alone is enough to raise expectations 😆 And when you drink it, it tastes like a green apple. It gives an impression of freshness and freshness. It also has a beautiful acidity, which Hakurakusei is known for. It clears up as it hits the throat and quietly disappears 💕What a perfect food sake. Of course, it was delicious 😋.

P.S. Mr. Wakata My guess is that vocalist Shu Koyama of SCOOBIE DO will participate only in the session, and I think it will probably be a session with Huracan or Skapara, with whom I have a good relationship 🤣.

Good evening, Wakata! Arasai atsui ✨Hormone, Aztec, and Erle are too much like my youth 😂 lol. I don't think Hakurakusei itself has a festival-like image, but it's quintessential deliciousness no matter where you drink it 🙌🎶.

Good evening, Kotaro 😃If you are the same age as me ⁉️, I feel a great affinity with you 😆 They have been releasing Arabaki sake every year for quite a while now, so I wonder if it is a form of Miyagi love by the Shinzawa Sake Brewery. So Hakurakusei is the one that tastes good at festivals too 😋.

Following the recent trend of sakénawa (as far as I know, so it's a very narrow trend), I'd like to share Okuroku with you. We've been wanting to follow Okuroku ever since we had it with wagashi before, and happened to buy it at our beloved sake shop, Waya, when we went back to my parents' house for a bullet-toothed trip in March. Living here, I feel that the quickest way to get Tohoku sake is to buy it locally💦. Anyway, I opened a full bottle of Okuroku Lotus🩷 along with some sashimi I cut myself, which is rare! This is delicious💕😆! Sweet and sour, then deliciousness, and finally deliciousness spreads 😋 This is the best kind. I'm sure it's the best one 👍 The husband seems to be satisfied with it and we both finished it before we realized 😅 It goes well not only with sashimi, but also with pickled quail eggs, which are very popular in our house. It goes with everything: ❤️ I later discovered that Colonel Lal was heating it up and regretted drinking it all up 💦. It was really delicious ✨

Good morning, Wakata! Surely you will see Okuroku ⤴️ And the acidic flavor that would go well with sashimi 🤤. I have to drink this one someday! I've made up my mind after reading your review 😁✨.

Hi Wakata 😃. Okuroku, it's so delicious 😋It's something great to go with Japanese sweets ❗️ I don't have the vocabulary to describe it... 😓 but I want to try drinking it 🥰I might try making pickled quail eggs too 😍.

Hello, Wakata 😃. Oh! You've joined the narrow stream 😆 Recently, the circle of deliciousness has been spreading like a ripple from Tohoku to Kanto to Kansai, so the whole of Japan is already in that circle 🤗. We who drink with our senses tend to kill them in the blink of an eye 😅.

Hi HinaHanaMama, good evening😃I started out by introducing Japanese sweets and sake, Ponchan, and I'm hooked ❤️ I recommend the pickles because you just marinate the quail eggs in a simple vinegar-based sauce...a drop of whiskey makes it even better🐎.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃The expansion of the circle of deliciousness makes all Japanese happy ❤️ but you're right, we're all instinctive drinkers 💦we tend to empty our bottles when we notice 😅.

ShuhoSpring Sunshine 80

Spring Sunshine that my husband, a Shuho chaser, has been getting: ☘️ It is made from the much talked about (where ⁉️) ingredient rice "Shunyo," which, according to research, has a lower amino acid content in sake made with this rice, so the "refreshing" flavor that can only be produced by highly refined rice can be expressed even at lower rice polishing ratios. Therefore, "Shuho SPRING SUNSHINE 80" is an amazing sake with a low milling ratio of 80% and brewed with Association No. 6 yeast. I wondered what it would be like since it has a Sake meter of -5, and was surprised to find that it tasted like a white grape. I wondered what it would be like, and was surprised to find that it tasted like white grapes and had a light mouthfeel. It has a unique grain-like aroma that comes up in the nose afterwards, but for some reason it is refreshing and makes you want to drink more and more 😆 Personally, I had a good impression of this bottle due to the cute cat on the label 💕😋😋.

My husband had been thinking about buying it for a long time, but decided against it. It was a good opportunity to ask for it. This is Sukkiri💕the food wine. There was a slight berry aroma, but the sharpness made it seem like nothing was there 😅Delicious 😆. I also had another lemon tea liqueur from Chibijin and I'll add it to the list. This one is just an introduction since it is a liqueur. It tasted so much like afternoon tea lemon 🍋.

The third one at the bread and sake store is Sentori's Sakura 😆👍. Sakura (OHANAMI) is a light nigori (light nigori) of "modern SENKYO no mukorin", which is a simple explanation. I took a sip while getting a little information that it is now made from the original sake yeast from this year. The freshness of the sake was combined with the mildness of the ori, and it was delicious 😋It was just about to open, so we had the best part of the sake 😋‼️ This one really does it - it's one of the best 😍The appetizer platter at this restaurant was also very good 😋💕!

Next up was the Butterfly Lady from Matsunotsu no Kotobuki. Hiding a little the stirring in my heart that says, "Aim for that ace of nostalgia, ⁉️," I take a sip first. It is said to be a single shot fire-refining junmai ginjo-shu brewed with 100% Yumesasara produced in Tochigi Prefecture, and thanks to its gentle taste, it goes down smoothly. The clear and refreshing taste soaks into your body like a soft drink. I didn't know such a sake existed, it was delicious 💕💕.

I've just been transferred to a different place in the same city, but still, it's a flurry of activity to change workplaces 😅. My colleague invited me to a sake bar as a farewell gift 😋. The first thing I ordered was Kuhyo Masamune. It had a decent fruity taste, but I think it was a little too alcoholic. I don't know how long it had been since I opened the bottle, but if I drank it freshly opened, I might have been a little more impressed with the sake.

It's been so hot lately that even though it's March, I'm starting to miss the schwarzwaffe 💦. On this day when it got up to 22℃ in Osaka, when I looked at our Lemacom, all I could see was sparkling gooseberries 🥵. I made some firefly squid and broccoli ajillo to go with the Ganki, and opened the bottle immediately✨. This one is more fizzy than the Ganki Sparkling we had before 💕It feels great down the throat 😋. It's not so dry, but the sweetness, slight bitterness and acidity are exquisite 😆🩷This is a winner 🎯It's so good 😊It goes well with the oil in the ahijo and the depth of the firefly squid, so it just keeps going and going💦. Well, of course you'll drink it all 😅
