Izakaya Shinkansen 🚄☺️ from noon. Kumamoto's sake, Karo, and Kumamoto's specialty? Chikuwa salad. Chikuwa salad is said to have originated in Kumamoto. It's a chikuwa stuffed with potato salad, battered and deep-fried. It's a calorie monster of a salad. LOL! I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels it's 50% more delicious than usual, spiced up by the immorality of drinking from noon! 🐴🐴🐴. Aha...I am happy 😌😌😌😌.

Thank you for your comment, ma-ki- 🎵😊. Heppoko's izakaya shinkansen is coming to an end. A trip of about 3 hours. It was great to drink sake while watching the scenery flow by the train window. It was a treat 😋😋😋.

Gentle sweetness and acidity, fine gasiness👍. It is still delicious! ←Isn't this expression good? (Self-praise. (Isn't this expression good?) We, Heppoko, will continue to support the "Yuu-You-kei" Sake with all our might! ✨✨✨✨

Thanks for your comments, Jay & Nobby 😊. Gentle heated sake is such a relief (please don't say it's only for HOT. LOL) I will continue to learn more about various 🍶🥰.

I'm going to try heating sake 😆. I'm not very good at it because I still have the image of the cheap hot sake I used to drink... 😰😰😰😰😰😰😰.... Hmmm...what is it? This...might be good? I'm not sure. No strong aroma or tangy taste that is characteristic of hot sake? This is easy to drink. It's delicious. I'm sure you can drink it outdoors at cherry-blossom viewing parties without getting cold 🍶. It is delicious even when the temperature is lowered and it is in a chilled state. I think Hepko may have finally reached a new level. The thermo sticker also changes color, interesting 🤗🤗.

Hello, Heppoko-san! I like the heated sake challenge: ⤴️ I got hooked on this sake when it made its debut in Kaze no Mori, but at the time I didn't realize it was heated sake and was impressed by the taste cold 🤣. Sake is a funny thing, isn't it 😋.

Thank you for your comment, ma-ki-San 😊. Actually, Heppoko didn't know it was heated sake and had it chilled in the fridge with gusto. LOL! I heated it up in a hurry, but it was all delicious 🐴 from cold to warmed.

I've seen a lot of fizzy type of wine with sweet taste, but this one has a sour taste? I'm not sure if it's the acidity or the sweetness. Classic and Retro are different brands. It tastes like Champagne (white) combined with the freshness of the sake! 🤗🤗🤗 I drink it after dinner thinking it's a sweet sake, but I thought it was a sake that goes well before and during a meal 👍👍. I made a mistake in the order in which I drank it, but it is definitely a delicious drink 🥰🥰🥰.

The one I drank was the Modern fire-ground. I'd like to buy the sparkling raw next time I see it. If it is true, it would be great to compare the two. The taste and aroma of Hi-iri is definitely Sentori! I think it would suit your palate as well.
Japanese>English
へっぽこ
AAJI, thanks for your comment 😊. I would love to drink the modern fire-roasted. I wanted to sell both and compare them 🥲. I bought Noto's earthquake relief Tengu Mai 🍶. I'm going to get the modern hi-ire in the near future!

Supporting the Recovery of Noto, Tsunagu Ishikawa's Sake🍶. It has been a little over a year since the Noto Peninsula earthquake. Although it is no longer on the news, I am sure that life in the area is not at the level of what we can call "normal". All I can do is to drink sake, but I hope that the daily life will come back to normal as soon as possible 🙏🙏🙏.

Oh...forgot to comment on the taste. LOL! Well...it's Tengumai, so it's delicious! The sweetness of the rice and the aroma...it spreads like a breeze 😊. The aftertaste disappears quickly. It disappears quickly. It seems less lingering than the usual Yamahai, but... It's up to you which one tastes better. LOL!

Good evening, Heppoko-san. It has really been one year since the Noto Peninsula earthquake. I strongly feel that I must not let it fade away in my mind. Tengumai is definitely delicious. The picture of the cap makes me want to drink it even more because of the glossy Tengumai 😊.

Thanks for your comment, Hirupeko 😊. It was Ishikawa (Kikuhime Kikunori) that got me into the sake swamp! 🥰🥰. I want to support you all the way because of that connection! It's not easy to go to Ishikawa because of my area, but I will drink a lot of Ishikawa sake! (← I just want to drink. (← I just want to drink...lol)

It's THE sake label 😊. It's called "Retro" and it's a retro label (just like that, huh?)! LOL) The taste is also classic and robust. It might go well with oden and simmered dishes. 👍👍👍

Here's the final drink of the day! Sake for the earthquake relief efforts in Noto! It's a sake to support the Noto earthquake relief efforts! It tastes...well...it's from Kangiku Meikozo, so...it's delicious. It has a slightly sweet taste, but it's not too strong 😚. Supporting the earthquake relief efforts is a good thing, isn't it (I'm just drinking sake...)? (I'm just drinking sake...lol).

Aomori's sake 🍶. I think Tasake is the most popular sake.... What's that? It's delicious👍. And it's only 500 yen for a glass. Cheap! Yassssss! LOL! It's a trendy balanced type of alcohol that's easy to drink...isn't it the most cost-effective?

It has a sake meter of +15, which is in the super dry category, but as one would expect from a junmai sake, the first thing you notice is the subtle sweetness and aroma of the rice 😌😌. Then it has a sharpness! It disappears with ease. It is a perfect match for simmered or nabe dishes 😍😍. It's delicious 🍶🍶.

Hokkaido sake, nice to meet you 😚😚😚. This...yum🐴. It has a slight sweetness, but not fruity! It's pure rice sweetness, and it's so elegant! The lingering disappearance is also exquisite ✨. My partner happens to be sushi (cheap 🥲 from the supermarket, of course), but I think it's a good match 👍👍.

Juicy dry taste...what the heck is that? I want to be pissed off at the name. LOL! It tasted like...juicy dry taste. It tasted like...juicy spicy dry mouth reformulated. LOL! The sweetness comes first, but it is quickly followed by a short, clean aftertaste! It has a short, clean aftertaste👍. If you like dry taste, you may want to try the usual Kudokigake, but this one is good.
