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 😋💕!

Japanese>English

Hey, Wakata-san 😃! Tochigi sake 🍶 series! Thank you 🤗 A lot of appetizers😍 and definitely the new born Senkou Sakura🌸 both are very good and happy 😙.

Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby😃Yes, that's right! The Sentori Sakura was so delicious and a perfect marriage with the appetizers, it was a happy time 💕Tochigi sake has a different bottom line ✨.

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 💕💕.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Wakata-san 😃. I'm curious to know if Coach Munekata and Hiromi Oka are there too 😄 Actually, we know about Reika Ryuzaki, but we haven't tried Butterfly Lady 😅I'll have to try it next time 👋.

Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby😃Thank you for your help here as well☺️ exactly the kind of thing you should aim for in the sake world ✨I can only imagine how much fresher it would taste if it had Oka Hiromi or something like that 🤣.

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.

Good evening, Wakata-san. When you are transferred to another company, you must be busy at the end of the fiscal year, preparing to take over and moving, 💦Thank you for your hard work. I would like to visit this restaurant once, even if it's just for a fun bread-drinking experience 😊.

Hi Hirupeko, good morning 😃Continuing with the materials, it was an endless and genteel Saturday and Sunday 😅This store is open from morning with baking on the second floor. The focaccia and salt bread are highly recommended ✨😆.

Hi Waka 🐦. I see you've been transferred 😳I know it's tough to have a different atmosphere at work💦Please have a drink and relax on your day off 🙏. Bread and sake! It seems like there's nothing that doesn't go together when it comes to this 😆.

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 😅

Japanese>English

Hi Wakata 😃! It's finally warming up and suddenly it's summer days and my body can't keep up 💦 I also want to seek out some shwash 🫧 😆 firefly squid and broccoli ajillo 🙌 this is a no brainer 👍.

Japanese>English

Hi Wakata 😃. I know when it gets hotter I get a craving for sparkling 🤗It's quirky that you have a proper stock 👍I remember Ganki sparkling was delicious and not too sweet 😋No reason not to drink it up 😁.

Japanese>English

Hi, HinaHanaMama 😃This year I'm eating a lot of firefly squid, taking advantage of the fact that it's in season 😅It's like the return of cold again when it's hot and my body is going to get stupid💦.

Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃You must be able to finish the Ganki Sparkling, which you both say is delicious 😆We are two unplanning people who don't enjoy changing tastes, so we always finish it 💦.

Good morning, kozo-san 😃You are right about the nostalgia of Ganki's sparkling that makes even those who don't like it say it's okay 😊I feel like looking for another bottle for the rainy season if it's this good 😍I'm really into firefly squid this year 😋.

Harukaze was drunk in February. Chestnut label white is 100% Akita Sake Komachi. Mild aroma reminiscent of fresh citrus fruits, soft taste, and an elegant sweetness. There is also a bitterness like grapefruit in the aftertaste. It was a very clear and refreshing sake✨.

Good morning, Wakata. ☀️ Elegant sweet flavor and bitterness: ❣️ I think the chestnut label white raw sake is one of the best in Haruka 😊💕.

Today is the first nice day in a long time: ☀️ My daughter is out of town for an Easter event, so the hubby and I are quietly enjoying a garden barbecue 🍖 (even though we have a drinking party at work in the evening💦). I opened a bottle of Aki Tiger Foam, "Soto", with the intention of drinking it lightly. It seems to be made with Kankanmaru, a yeast originally developed by Kochi Prefecture. Well, take a sip. The first sip is a strong, shwashy, bitter taste that hits you hard. But as you slowly down it, the sourness and sweetness come in a flurry, leaving a refreshing aftertaste. It's quite a good balance, as you would expect 😊. I started with a skewer of firefly squid I saw on Instagram. The bitterness of this Aki Tiger goes great with the depth of the firefly squid's wata 😋💕It matched the salty meat and made me happy for lunch on a nice day ☺️🩷

Japanese>English

Hi Wakata-san. I thought it was beer, but it's sake 😳I'm also curious about the yeast called kankanmaru 😍A wonderful spring day lunch with seared firefly squid: ☀️

Good evening, Mr. Wakata! I was wondering if it was beer too, but I see it's sake 😲. I love the idea of you and your wife barbecuing in the garden 😋.

Japanese>English

Hi Hirupeko, good evening 😃Yes, it looked like a gut beer, but it was a delicious nigori fizzy one😍. I looked up Kan Kan Maru and found that it has a balance of sourness and sweetness. Sounds like a delicious description 😆👍.

Japanese>English

ma-ki-, good evening 😃This bottle looks like something you would find in a craft beer 😁Drinking alcohol in the daytime is somehow delicious, and I think it's doubled when you drink outside 😅We tend to drink outside when we want to drink in the daytime.

Japanese>English

Hi Wakata 😃. I'm so glad you had a great day off 😙 absorbing the sunshine and sake element during the day 😁 in preparation for the evening drinks 🥰I'm going to learn from you!

Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃It was a great day, idyllic spring sunshine and drinks 😆💕Drinking at night, we had Jigikin and Jyushidai, but I couldn't touch them because we had all-you-can-drink, and the beer tasted like tears 😭.

Japanese>English

Hi Waka 🐦. The fuzzy tiger is a nice touch 😊 and the shwash is great for drinking on a sunny lunch day 😆👍I love firefly squid but I've never had a seared one 😳 Looks delicious 😻

On Friday, I thought I'd sort out the liquor I'd accumulated since I'd finished a big job. Here is what I drank before. I've seen this Yamanokotobuki many times in Sake-no-wa. I've been watching your posts with sympathy, and now I'm finally posting this. The sourness that comes first and the bitterness that follows are pleasant, giving the impression of a grapefruit-like sake. I was thinking, "What's that?

My father-in-law broke his arm in February. A month after the shocking surgery, he was safely discharged from the hospital, and to celebrate his release from the hospital, we decided to try the new Sentori Modern, which we had never had before. ‼️ I had never had a bottle of the new Sengoku Modern before! I decided to open a bottle of Edo Eri-no-Seme 😆💕. Thank you father for giving me the courage to buy Sentori by the bottle 😭 While I was impressed by the label alone, my father-in-law took a quick sip. It's so good! He said 😊. I took a bite too. It's so fresh and the acidity from the sake brewing process is also very pleasant. ❤️ As I was pouring it over with my father-in-law, I realized that there was only about 500ml left in the bottle, even though it was a full bottle.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Wakata-san😄. Congratulations on your father-in-law's release from the hospital 💐. It must have been tough for him to stay in the hospital for a month with a broken bone💦but I'm glad he's out of the hospital in good health and enjoying his Senkou 🥰Sweet sake makes people smile 💕.

Japanese>English

Good morning, Wakata-san! Congratulations on your father-in-law's successful surgery and discharge from the hospital 🎉. I'm sure it was a worrisome time for you, so it's a relief that he's recovered well enough to drink a full bottle of wine🍀. You are indeed a Senkou-san 😋.

Japanese>English

Waka-chan, congratulations on your father-in-law's release from the hospital 🎉. It must have been tough on you and your family 💦He's on the mend and you must drink 😉 And I see you used a bottle of sake instead of a four-pack 🤣You and Sentori are both great 👍.

Japanese>English

Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃It was a long time coming, probably due to my broken ankle. She was tired of hospital food like vegetarian food and was much happier to be able to drink sake😊Time around good sake is really a good time 🩷.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Wakata 😃. The broken ankle must have been inconvenient and hard to deal with 😢Disaster turns to disaster! It's a relief that you have a bottle of Senkou in your possession 😊It's a celebratory sake and it will run out faster 😙.

ma-ki-, good evening 😃You're right, a bottle of Senkou is really bad 😨💦it reaches the bottom in no time, it's a horrible drink 😁💕.

Good evening, Pon-chan😃I just happened to find a bottle left at a liquor store I often go to💦I had to buy it, since it was supposed to be a hospital discharge gift. It didn't disappoint me, it was indeed delicious. ☺️

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃"Turning misfortune around to drink a bottle of sake" is a typical proverb familiar to Japanese people ✨It is no exaggeration to say that my father-in-law broke his arm for a bottle of sake of sake of sake 😆Senkou, a delicious bird that everyone wants to drink up, is a guilty pleasure 💦.

Perhaps it's my imagination, but I've been seeing Iwate sake a lot in the Sakénawa area lately, so I extended my love of Miyagi to love of Tohoku, and my 501st bottle was Heiroku's Setsuna. I'm just saying, I was influenced by Maru-san's post the other day about Hori no Ii, and I just wanted to drink some good Iwate sake too 😅Hiraroku Brewery from Shiwa town, just like Hori no Ii. All Iwate rice is used here, and from the first sip, it's soooo good😍! It has a light mouthfeel and just the right amount of sweetness. The refreshing citrus-like acidity that comes along with it is an exquisite and wonderful accent 💕Wow, it's delicious 😋. Whatever Heiroku-san's sake is, it's too delicious to finish 💦.

As I said, I am busy, but fun is also important, so I have been on a ski trip with a friend and her family since the day after Valentine's Day. ⛷️ I grew up in a snow country, and in the winter all the neighborhoods around my house are covered with snow, so I am ashamed to say that I have never skied privately before. Well, even though it was my first time, my legs and back trained in the snowy mountains could actually ski. I am no longer able to double jump rope due to aging, but I was relieved to see that I could ski at least for a while. I didn't have to be embarrassed on my trip. ☺️ That's where winter cotton came in handy at night. I am the one who wants to drink the seasonal labels of cotton stores. The label is the familiar Mt. Kurikoma's Lake Hanayama. Beautiful ✨ Made with Omachi from Okayama Prefecture and the brewer's yeast Wataya yeast, it has a calm mouthfeel with yeast-derived acidity and sweet-sourness from the Omachi. It is also refreshing and delicious 😋. This was a 500 check-in that allowed me to keep my love for Miyagi and my pride for growing up in the snowy mountains 😊💕. Oh, and the third one was a handmade Valentine madeleine from my daughter 🩷.

Japanese>English

Hi Wakata 😃. Congratulations on your 500 check-ins 🎊🎊㊗️ congratulations on celebrating with a drink that you have a special place in your heart 💓Skiing ⛷️, you must have surprised your friend with your surprisingly good skills 🤣Madeleine looks very delicious 🥰.

It seems that the busyness of the end of the fiscal year is not comparable to that of the end of the year after all, and I haven't had time to give you a saké wawa for a while 😭. I can finally write what I've been drinking 💦. Well, this is Ding's autumn harvest. A bottle from my cousin who went on a business trip to Nagano. According to the description, the pressed sake is heat sterilized and aged at low temperature until early autumn. This time it is 100% Hitogokochi. Kuroyau water, which is said to be the softest water in Japan, is used, resulting in an overwhelmingly soft and fine quality of sake. The aroma was mild and the taste was sweet. It has a mature taste.

The second bottle of sake from another place was Hana-yoku. I took a sip, wondering when I last drank it. The overwhelming fruity flavor was still there. It has a strong sweetness and a sense of rice lurking deep within. It has a strong structure that is conveyed well, and it's brilliant ✨.

Today, February 1, is our wedding anniversary, and two days ago, our company, Tesho Sake, was going to open a new sake called Shinmasa N-type and other so-called "good sake. I left work unusually on time with the excuse that it was our wedding anniversary on Christmas Eve. When we dashed to the restaurant, there was not a single customer yet, which was a luxury. First of all, I wanted to order the N-type. Of course they had it, so I ordered it right away. The wood vat feeling spreading. I wonder if this sourness is kiwi🥝. But I also felt like it was put together like a sports drink in total. It's delicious, after all. However, the other drinks of the day were very hot. So many drinks to drink 💦.

Hi HinaHanaMama, good evening 😃Thank you for saying that 😊When I look back on the past, I tend to drink Shinsei on our wedding anniversary for the past few years. I guess I don't have the courage to try Shinsei unless I have a chance to try it 💦.

Thank you, Tsubu 😊I just want a reason to open Shinsei, and I'm picking an anniversary for it, because I'm petty 💦 Actually, my stomach wasn't feeling well today, and I've already had all the good stuff on this day, so I decided it's ok 😅.
