Akabu for the sake that we gave to Wakata's family for their BBQ. Hmm? 😅 I received this at a petit off-line party the other day. Thank you Wakata-san and Yuki-san 🙇. I got it as soon as possible👍. Ginga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga? This is my first time 🥰 to try the NEW BORN of Sasuza Akabu. It has a great balance of sweetness, acidity, and bitterness, and the freshness that is typical of nama-shu is also well apparent. It is a definite taste. I'll have to figure out how to thank you too 🤣.

White sake (4) This is the first time for Masayo a.k.a. Gagakuyo. I will start with white sake without drinking the standard. I like white sake. As the store owner said, it is not that vigorous, so opening the bottle was smooth. It has a melon aroma and a light sweetness. Sourness, little bitterness. When mixed with lees, the acidity increases and the bitterness retracts. There is a slight shuffle. Oh, man, it's so good! I heard that Tenryohaii Sake Brewery was started by a young master brewer named Kato-san, who bought the brewery and started the business. And Kato-san's notebook is easy to read and very interesting. What a genius! That's my impression. Sake brewed by a challenging and hardworking genius. I like sake more and more.

Merry Xmas!!!🧑‍🎄🌲🎉 24th and 25th are weekdays, so we held the party on Sunday the 22nd. This year it's this blue bottle, Houou Mita: 🐦‍🔥 When you drink the second fermentation of sake in the bottle, it's already champagne... I can't go back to drinking such eh or sparkling wine! I can't go back to sparkling wine! It has fine bubbles and a prodigal sweetness, yet it ends up dry and tight 🫧. Goes well with western food. The flashy bottle and the price that makes the average person cry, it's not a joke. Yum 😋. Tochigi love on a holy night 🥰. I told the kids that since dad is friends with Santa, we'd get a special early visit from Santa 🧑‍🎄 on Saturday night. The younger ones were overjoyed while the older ones scowled at the older ones who knew the truth! Thanks to him, the kids had a full Sunday to play with their toys 🙌. And by the way, a father's dignity somewhat 🆙. It's hard to get them off to school on weekday mornings 😓.

Year-end party of the Sakai-kai of the Kansai Branch of SAKEWA 🎉. Under Umaisan's order, Lutemi-mama, Wakata and his wife, and I gathered. The place was Kurami, a famous restaurant in Sakai. Delicious food as always. This was the 2,000 yen per person course (4th picture). We started with a toast of Tobiroki's Kasumi sake, Romain. We spent about 3 hours in a blink of an eye, talking about our recent situation and personal stories that we were hearing for the first time. It was a lot of fun 😊. One of the most memorable bottles was this one. Mature Kuranomori. Brewing year: 2000. 24 years ago. How old were you guys back then? I was 😁. I had it hot. It is not as peculiar as I expected and tastes soft with a caramelized taste. The slightly pointing stimulation characteristic of aged sake was also pleasant and flowed down my throat. Drunken sake with good friends. Bliss at its finest. A wonderful year-end party that I could not have imagined a few years ago. We are grateful for the sake connection.

Good evening, Maru-san 🦉. Nice Sakai-kai! I can see you had a great time 😊But then again, it's hard to believe that the food was only 2000 yen 😳and that you can drink alcohol from 24 years ago 😻 I thought 2000 was a recent date 🤣.

White sake (3) Jyuseki has been a hot topic for a while now. I drank it outside, but this is my first time drinking it at home. It is said that all sake is brewed with a special emphasis on Kyoto products. First, the supernatant. The balance of sweetness, acidity, and bitterness is wonderful. When mixed with the lees, the bitterness is a little more noticeable, but it is dry and can be drunk easily as a mealtime sake. It's good, Jyuseki.

Suitama by Ryoseki Shuzo, the brewery where I started. It is a bottle from the hanpukai, but the moment the store owner brought it to me, I grinned 😏. It's so good that they want to offer it in the hanpukai, right? My expectations are skyrocketing. As usual, it is elegant and refreshing, yet deeply sweet. As the temperature rises in the mouth, the sweetness spreads. The bitterness is just a little. Almost no acidity. The taste does not betray expectations.

Activated nigori draft purchased at the Asahi Sake Brewery in Izumo City. The bottle was lukewarm by the time I got home as a result of being left in the car for about 6 hours, including a stopover there. But that's no problem. I will drink it well chilled. The sound of a light puffing sound. There is no sign of blowing. Silky texture, acidic and not too sweet. Sake level -23😳It's quite a weird specs 🫶.

This Izumo Dayori is one of the drier Ten Asahi Sake. It has a sake level of 3.5, which is sweeter than the 12.5 hiyaoroshi and 8.0 junmai ginjo that we recently drank. When the bottle is opened, it has a fruity aroma. Is it sweet? No, it was spicy. It was dry 😅. But it was sweeter than the other Ten Asahi, so I enjoyed it.

White sake (2) Not Takachiyo or Takachiyo by Takachiyo Sake Brewery, but Takagun. It is read as "Koryu. It has an apple aroma. If you drink only the supernatant, the bitterness seems a little stronger. When mixed with the lees, the sweetness increases and the bitterness becomes weaker. The acidity is low. It does not have a shwashy taste. It is slightly dry and sweet, so it is a perfect match for my type of wine. The price is also high-cost, about 1,500 yen for a No. 4 bottle.

We went to Izumo-taisha Shrine, then to Yakumo-san for Izumo soba noodles, and then to the Asahi Sake Brewery. The proprietress of the Asahinichi Sake Brewery was very charming and friendly, and we were able to hear many stories about the local area. I bought a bottle of hiyaoroshi, which I was told was only available here. I was told that the flavor deepens as the days go by. This is the first solid dry sake I have had in a long time. Smoky aroma and taste, with a touch of sweetness 😅. Hot. Day 2. I thought it would be more sweet on its own, but it's not sweet at all. It's hot. 3rd day. Spicy. I found out that spicy is spicy 🤣.

I went to Okuizumo. I received an unfamiliar sake at the inn. It's so corky. Anyway, a cork. It tastes like that taste you get when you mistakenly open a bottle of red wine and the cork crumbs end up in the bottle. Is it the aroma of the wooden vat? It's been a long time since I've had a major aversion😣. The third picture is in front of the inn the next morning. The moment I woke up and opened the curtains, "No way!" I said. There should have been no snow when we came here.... I had normal tires. I thought November would still be fine... The kids were so excited😅. When we talked to the innkeeper, he said it was only in the morning and by the time we checked out, it had all melted and we were able to leave safely 🚙. Normally we would have had a snow viewing party, but this was a different kind of sake and snow memory 😆.

White sake (1) This is the first white sake of the season. It's here, and it's exciting. White sake is good, whether it is shuwa or not. First Chitose-Tsuru. First, the supernatant. There is a chirichiri gasiness, bitterness and acidity are a little noticeable, and there is a sweetness at the back. When the lees are mixed, the soft and thick sweetness increases. The bitterness and acidity are pleasant. This is a good food sake.

I received this from Jive-san at the offline meeting. Yutaka Sake Brewery in Sabae City, listed as SINCE1753, so it must have been founded in the mid-Edo period🧐. A little research on Fukui Prefecture around this time revealed that a sumo tournament was held at Obama Hachimangu Shrine. I will enjoy it while thinking about such history. Sharp and clear. It is very clear and refreshing. It went well with kizushi (sushi) (mackerel). Thank you, Mr. Gyve. We enjoyed it very much 🙇.

Good evening, Mr. Maru. This is delicious 😋. I think it's great that you can enjoy it for a long time and taste the changes 😆. I'm thinking about buying a nice bottle of Kihotsuru for New Year's 🤔.

Good morning, Maru-san. I also like Kibotsuru. The liquor store has a special junmai unfiltered draft on reserve and I am looking forward to it.

Hi Peco-sensei, ☀️ I'm hooked on Motomine Tsuru😍I had a bottle but I drank it all before I had time to heat it up 😆 oops 😅. I'll do a heated review on the next bottle I have coming up... maybe 🤣.

Hi bouken😊 You're right, it was really good👍! In fact, I already have a bottle of Kihotsuru's good stuff in reserve for New Year's 🤣.

Hi Gula-san, ☀️ Gura-san, I envy you because you are in Kyushu, so you are close to Kibotsu Tsuru. I'm jealous that you are familiar with Kibotsu Tsuru because you are in Kyushu! That's nice👍. I'm excited just to hear about it 🤣.

An early year-end party of the SAKEWA Kansai Chapter. I am grateful to be able to participate in this party. Cheers to Pyonpyon's Jyushidai! Even though I thought I didn't need to drink pre-drink after drinking various delicious sake, Jyushidai is still very tasty. I'm not sure if I need to post this since everyone has already posted about it 😅. Well, I had a hard time deciding what to drink, and this time I decided on Kaze no Mori for heating sake. It's delicious cold, but since it's meant to be heated, I'll have it heated. It's slightly smoky, it loses its sweetness, it loses its Kaze no Mori character, but there is something "strange...bar 🫶" beckoning me in the back? It was the kind of off-line meeting where a door that should not be opened seemed to open. Thank you very much to the great secretary-general Uma-san, Rafa-san for the food and drinks, and everyone who drank with us 🙇. It was a very enjoyable time.

Hi Maru 😀 Thank you for going out of your way to prepare the sake heater 🙏❓ wasn't Maru-san already a member of that core group? Oh ❓I thought you were already a member of that core group ❓🤣. I don't think I'm ready to be in that realm yet😅.

Good evening, bouken🫶. I have not been able to greet Mr. Matsuchiyo and my brother Nemuchi is still an apprentice and I am still waiting my turn outside the door 🤣.

Good evening, Nemuchi 🫶. I agree with your comment to bouken. If someone is an apprentice, I'm not even close 😄.

Good evening, Yasbay 🌘. Even I love sweet juicy! It's true! But you know, it's also true that sometimes when I drink a weird drink, I think "ah 🫶" 🤣.

Good evening, Pon-chan 🌘. Thank you very much for the year-end party 🙇. I am not aware of it at all, but I guess I was the one who has it? I like sweetness, but I'm in trouble 🫶.

Hi Maru ☀☀☀☀. Thanks for your time off 😁. Thank you for bringing in the warmer ✨. Putting aside the sign of the door🫶 for the moment 🤣. I can't help but think about how many sakes can be heated up and still retain the flavor of the ingredients 🤔.

マル
Hi Gyve, hello ☀️ Thank you very much for all your help at the offline meeting 🙇. It's true that I don't think "not much difference" when heated up. It's fun to see the taste change when it's heated up and you say, "Oh! It's fun to see the taste change when it's heated up 😊.

Good evening, Maru 😁. Thank you for the offline meeting 😊. Thanks to the sake warmer, I was able to try changing the taste. I don't know how much you know about it though 🤣.

Hello Lutemi, ☀️ Thank you for the off-line meeting too 🙇. It's a different world when it's heated up, isn't it? I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing 😆. I hope to see you again at the next petit offline meeting 🍶.

When I see a sake I've never seen before, I can't help but reach for it. Sake is like an idol group, or YMG48, if you will. Snow Goddess is a sake rice developed by Yamagata Prefecture for Junmai Daiginjo and Daiginjo. Sake rice that is destined to be scraped and shaved at birth. It makes me cry. I will have it with the image of sitting upright with my back straight. Slightly sweet and refreshing, with little bitterness or acidity. A beautiful sake. I think it could have more punch. It is one of my favorites.

Good evening, Mr. Maru. Snow Goddess 48 sounds like something strong 🤣. I came across this sake by chance and it was even better than I imagined 😋. Mr. Sukumasa has great antennae 😆.

Hi Maru 😀 Looks like it didn't pack a bit of a punch for you, Maru 🤣. That cleanliness was quite highly appreciated in our house 😅. But in any case, you can't go wrong with Sukumasa's hanpukai 😇

Hi Mal 😃. I'm so glad to see you sharpened, straightened, polished, and polished... it's hard to live up to expectations 😫. Ahh! I'm glad I'm not an idol 😆. I'd love to have a beautiful drink with some delicious snacks 😋.

Good evening, bouken 🌘. It sure looks strong 🤣. Sukuisho hanpukai, like the last rainfall, includes things that I don't often buy myself, and only such things are tasty 😊.
