Iwanoi240 純米吟醸 美山錦 無濾過生原酒

Mineral" is my first impression (don't ask me what kind of first impression I have). The 240 in the name seems to be the hardness of the water. In Japan, you don't often hear about water hardness, do you? According to the liquor store, the higher the hardness of the water, the more you can enjoy the taste change after opening the bottle, so please drink it slowly. I have heard that the Kanto region in Japan has a higher hardness, and that the Kanto loam layer is one of the reasons, but I don't know anything about it. I don't know...but I've been eating it while thinking about how hard it must be in Kanto and by the sea.... It is rich in flavor, sweetness, and bitterness. I hope you will enjoy it too.

This is a draft sake from Kawatsuru Shuzo, the brewery behind Sanuki Kuraudei, which we had the other day. I like Sanuki Kuraudayi's variety, but this one had a fresh, modern, royal taste... but as I drank it, the spiciness and bitterness came out nicely, and the balance was good. It seems to be brewed with local Yamada Nishiki (from the Tanonoda area in Tanonoda). I look forward to more.

Last year's winner in my personal summer sake category, Semi Shigure, has already made its appearance. I was browsing around at a liquor store in Koume-machi, Nagano, and...what do you think? I bought it, thinking that it must be the season for summer sake. It's less citrusy and acidic than last year, but it's still good...definitely a regular summer sake. I promised myself that I would drink it again this year.

Good morning madamarr 😃. Cicadasigure ‼️ definitely a champ🏆 for a good summer drink 🤗I think we're going to have another one too 😊.

Last year, my personal top three summer sakes were Turtle Sea Semishigure, Omine Natsu no Otozure, and Akabu SEA. So far, Semishigure is leading by about 5 steps.

I thought immediately after drinking it, "Wow, this is sharp and dry, sir. (I was just thinking, who's my husband?) When I sipped it, I felt a sharp dryness that exceeded the alcohol content. This is irresistible. It is sure to be an excellent food wine. I bought it at a liquor store in Koume-cho on the way to Michi no Eki Hakushu during the GW period. This liquor store is a nice store with a nice selection of austere Nagano brand sake, so if you have a chance, please visit.

I got it at a certain liquor store in Saitama. They seem to have started to sell it recently. This is the first sake from the Naohiko Noguchi Institute. It has a mild taste, but just as I thought it would be mild, a heavy feeling follows.... It has a profound feeling as if you were drinking an old whiskey.... I drank it chilled, but it would also be delicious at room temperature or warmed. It was a sake with depth.

I thought it was banana style, right? I bought it thinking, "Oh no, it's banana-like, isn't it? The moment I drank it, I thought it was banana, not yeast, but juice. The label is true. I tried it with chocolate. Yes, it was chocolate banana. I drank it with bananas while eating bananas. I couldn't tell the difference except that they are solid and liquid, respectively. That's all for now.

My first impression was, "This is a bad, bad, bad idea...". The moment I drank it, I was shocked as if I was hit by a hammer. It's high in alcohol content and very dry, but the freshness of the raw sake is just awful. It's too sharp for a can, but it's too sharp for a can. I missed drinking it at the sake camp, but I came across it at a liquor store in Saitama. I felt it was my destiny to drink it, and it was cheap (300 yen). I want you to try it without prejudice. I felt something that would throw a stone at the current state of Japanese sake. This is a great idea in my opinion. I'd be happy if it becomes a new trend of sake in cups.

I think I bought sake everywhere during GW, but I bought this one at a place in Saitama for the first time. The label caught my eye, so I bought it. It has a nice ginjo aroma and an ama-like taste, followed by a bitter or astringent taste. After the moderate ginjo aroma and ama-ama feeling, a bitterness or astringency followed. I thought that this pattern might not be so common. It may be an addictive taste.

Good morning, madamarr 😃! Congratulations on your 300 check-in ㊗️㊗️㊗️ for your first drink "Clouds in the Mountains" 🎉I'm curious about your distinctive label quirkiness 😋.

Thank you for celebrating my 300th check-in, of which even I am unaware. I tend to choose the most unusual ones these days, but this one was a success. If you have a chance, please do.

I bought it at a certain liquor store in Neo Saitama. I had drunk this flavor somewhere before...I wondered what it was...and after a few days, I found out that it was...probably...Katsugen! So, what is this "Katsugen"? I guess you may wonder, but it's a lactic acid bacteria beverage only available in Hokkaido. I used to drink it a lot when I was little. It's like makgeolli with a dairy-like sourness... As the label on the back says, it's best served on the rocks.

I did not want to miss even a single drop that dripped from the four-part bottle. It was my first Junmai Daiginjo, and I felt that I had touched the ultimate in this bottle. I'm glad I was able to buy it, thanks to a certain sake shop in Ibaraki for selling it. I'm glad I drink sake.... This is really great, if you have a chance.

I haven't had a drink for a while, but I'll give you the second brand, Koei Kiku. I guess this is the first time for me to drink Haruzion. It has a sour burn. It's very sweet. The freshness is still there, of course. It is delicious.

The last of my Nagano excursion was Shinshu Kamerei, which had two kinds of sake, but I chose the more expensive one, because I regretted it last time. It was so good! I drank a little every day because I didn't want to waste it, but it was good from the first drop when I opened the bottle to the last drop (details are on the back label). I'm going to buy it again.

Hi madamarr 😃 That would definitely go 🤗 Wasn't there one per person?
Japanese>English
madamarr(まだまー
Good evening. Yes, each person is limited to one bottle. So, it's not easy to buy just one bottle of sake, so I'm going around to Shimizu-ya in Koume/Sakudaira, Inamaya in Karuizawa, and other sake shops.

私的二大初見読めない銘柄(もう一つは雅楽代)の花陽浴です.そうです,プチ長野遠征の最大の目的はコチラの購入でした. 先日の宝剣と同様,お米はたまたま同じ八反錦ですが…同じお米から出来てるとは到底思えないです(どっちもうまいんだけどさ).今風,香り豊かでフレッシュフルーティど真ん中です.24/25秋冬シーズンはコレが一番美味かったかも,です.素晴らしい.

The other day, I made a small expedition to Nagano (it only takes a little more than an hour using the expressway), and this is what I bought at a certain liquor store in Koshoku. It is "Drunken Whale". First of all, the label is prettier than the normal version of Drunken Whale (maybe). I thought it was basically a crisp and hard-core drunken whale. I thought it would be a crisp, hard-bodied drunken whale, but my impression is that it has a lot of depth, including umami. It's good. Why are there so many good sake brands in Kochi, such as Kameizumi, Minami, and Drunken Whale? Is it the water? What is it?

Good morning, madamarr 😃. I see that the west side of Gunma is close to Nagano! I remember a liquor store in Koshoku area 🤔I remember going there before and enjoying just looking at the fridge with lots of pre-made sake 😌I want to go to Nagano again!

Good evening. The liquor store in Koshoku is Sake-no-Osaka-ya. In fact, this store is a special distributor of a certain hard-to-find sake... I'll introduce that later.

I knew it was Ikusakaya! If you go there, you may want to go to Shinonoi and visit Sake no Kasuga 🤗.

I had a short break due to drinking and cherry-blossom viewing, but the third brew of the "short trip" to Utsunomiya was Shichibon-yari. I bought it at Yodogawa Sake Brewery, which I learned about the other day. I thought it was a delicious sake, as I did the last time I had it. I thought it would be better to drink it as a food sake. It's not the kind of sake that interferes with meals, but the kind of sake that has a great synergistic effect. It seems to go well with sashimi.

Good morning, madamarr 😃. Oh! 3rd expedition to ‼️ Utsunomiya is close to you? Yodogawa is also good 👍I'm tempted to buy more than one 😅The Shichibonjari in Kochira also looks delicious 😋It's great to enhance each other 🤗.

Hello. I live in the west of Gumma, so Utsunomiya is quite far from here. Yodogawa is a nice liquor store.
