The overall aroma is a bit more subdued than that of Kame-no-o 😌, but it too is elegant, with tropical fruits and plums... 😌. The aroma is beautiful.
Beef bone ramen with two kinds of beef and pork chashu pork. The soup is thicker than tsukemen soup or even thicker than tsukemen soup 😋.
Good evening, Hanapin-san 🐥.
Not so long ago it was all beef...but maybe due to the high prices, it's now half pork and the price is ⤴️🥲And if it's easy, it's all beef roast beef! The rare texture of the meat is addictive 🤤.
Maechen, good evening🐥.
I've finished drinking Senkou's classic series too🥲The beef bone ramen is famous in Tottori. Dreaming of eating there someday... 😊I never get tired of going here for beef bone ramen about 3 times a month 🤭.
Elegant and rich aroma with hints of lychee, white peach, blue banana, and a hint of milkiness.
The lingering taste of deep sweetness and refreshing acidity...
We ordered a combination of multi-water-curling noodles and chicken white soup. The noodles are thin and firm for a curly noodle. The soup is rich but elegant, and the low-temperature-cooked chashu pork is soft and delicious.
Good evening, Kotori. 😊
This definitely makes me want to put rice in my soup.
It's soooo good. 😍I failed once with the low-temperature-cooked chashu pork
I've failed once with the low-temperature-cooked chashu pork, so I hope to get my revenge someday 😫.
I want to try again someday 😫.
Good evening, Hanapin-san 🐥.
You haven't posted anything about alcohol, so your training seems to be going well😊You are patient and wonderful 🧘Speaking of meat... my eyes are always glued to Hanapin-san's homemade roast beef😍.
Good morning, Kotori-san 😃!
I feel like this is the real classic Sentori now 😌😌I want to drink it again😙Kotori's review makes me want to drink sake🍶and ramen🍜😋 too 😋.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🐥.
I visited Hitomi-san on a whim and the wife told me that they had no more in stock and that they just had a few 🤭I thought I'd finish my red and blue before going to Retro 🥹This is Shinozaki, the place for morning rah and gyoza 😋👍🏻
Souvenir from Kochi Prefecture 🤗
Commemorative sake for the 150th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Tomitaro Makino, botanist.
The package is cute!
It is described as "a refreshing, easy-drinking sake with a flowery aroma," but it has a somewhat classical impression. It is full-bodied and umami, with a spiciness in the latter half.
Hi kan 🐥.
I think the drama is about 2 years old? It's amazing that you are the godfather of 1/3 of all plants in Japan 😳I thought it would be interesting if the sake was like mead, it would match the package 🤭.
One day in February, I came to Tokyo just to buy this 🗼.
I got the Magnum 🤗.
The taste is clear and transparent.
It is somewhat botanical....refreshing and crisp acidity that you wouldn't expect from a Japanese sake, with a delicious flavor and a fruity honey-like sweetness that gently overlaps.
You will be enraptured by its deliciousness.
Ramen: Chicken Light Chinese Soba Noodle (Shio)
The shining chicken oil ✨light and rich soup with thin and resilient noodles... it was so good that I drank up the soup 😋.
Good evening, Hanapin-san 🐥.
How is your training to cleanse your body going? I've been putting off my checkup because I'm due for one as well 😮💨 and I can only get an appointment on the 31st, the last day of the school year 😱I think I'll cut back a bit on the drinking and ramen this year....
Good evening, T.KISO!
This time, I went here for a light soup. 💁🏻 It was a hut-like restaurant, but the well arranged doubedama and small bowls are also attractive 😋 It was full of chicken flavor... I drank all the soup even though it was before my checkup 😉 😉.
Good evening, Kotori 😃.
Mr. Sogape! This is one bottle we both want to drink a lot right now 🤗I should have asked you to bring a magnum 💪 in each hand 😅Where can I buy it? Let me know later👍
Good evening, Jay and Nobby!
I was checking out a ramen store and a little drink I was interested in 🚃 on my way to Tokyo... but for some reason I had to go back 🥲 but I couldn't get a sogape if I stayed in Utsunomiya, so it was a good thing I moved this time ✨.
Good evening, Kotori-san!
I'm so glad you got the Sogape ♡ ♡ ♡ I've been so lazy lately that I haven't been able to go to the liquor stores in Tochigi prefecture. I'm thinking I need to wake up from my hibernation....
Good evening, Nanoha 🐥.
I've been 🚃going up and getting it 😉 since early March 🚙another sogape purchase, the end of this fiscal year has been a rare busy time for me and I'm completely away from my drinking life 🥲I guess the first girls' night out in a while will be in April? 🤭
I got it as a souvenir from Hokkaido 🤗.
I heard it's called Gokho.
The aroma reminds me of a tropical fruit, and the taste is rich and mellow with a good sweet and sour taste and a rich malty aroma 😌.
Thank you very much!
Very pineapple!
The slight chili sensation on the tip of the tongue, the clear and fresh sweet and sour taste, and the 14% Al make for a delicious and easy drinking experience 😋.
I love that it's so easy to find.
Everyday life full of gratitude and kindness 😌.
The sake has a light and refreshing quality, with an aroma reminiscent of tropical fruits...not too sweet like the aroma, but sweet and sour with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Delicious 😚.
The first trial
We went to a neighboring prefecture to buy a certain sake, the first one to arrive! It was tough to bring a folding chair and spend 1.5 hours in the shade 🥶, but I'm glad I got it 🤗.
First attempt (2)
The smell of tonkotsu (pork bone) wafted even outside the store!
I'm sure I'll be in the car and clothes on the way home...I was prepared for that and took on the Yamaoka family challenge \ˆoˆ )/ I wanted something rich and thick...the premium salt tonkotsu was creamy and delicious 😋.
The menu at the ticket machine is extensive, and I'm looking forward to going back next time... ♪
Good morning, Hanapin-san 🐥.
Yamaoka family 😂I was able to conquer the rich flavored salt tonkotsu so I can move on to the next one 😋The nori was thick and delicious 😋.
Good morning, Manachie-san 🐥.
The first step of training for the off-line meeting at the Ushiku store someday has started 🤣 Sake is not a part of the trip, but a way to get there and back 🚙 using high speed... and standing in line... in a way, it is a training 😌.
Hi Kotori 😃.
Lined up in the neighboring prefecture 🤔........the one that basks in the sunshine of S-tama prefecture ⁉️ but to stand in line for 1.5 hours is amazing😳I'm sure the Yamaoka family will take that fatigue away 🤗.
Good evening, Kotori 😃.
Thank you for joining the Yamaoka family club 🍜.
I sometimes feel like going to Pretton too 😋.
The extraordinary effort ‼️ you put into your sake makes it even more delicious 🎵
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🐥.
If you are south of Watase reservoir...S-tama prefecture is just next to you 😂Tochigi prefecture is the only special store that doesn't sell it 🤭If you can find a place to drink it in Utsunomiya, please let me know 😉 I'm filled with Yamaoka family and sleep the afternoon away😪 lol
Good evening, Kotori😊.
Dora-chan predicted that it would be a liquor store in G-Ma prefecture? And I'm sure the sake will be the one sold on 3/1 at
And I'm sure the sake is the one sold on 3/1 at ☝️ 🤭Dora-chan used to go there to buy Ano sake too...am I right❓
㊗️Yamaoka family debut🎉!
Good evening, Nochi🐥.
I didn't understand the rules 🍜 and almost failed to collect the service ticket 🎫 that comes out of the ticket machine at different times 😂 It's another ver. of that thing that I waved but no one listened to me about the difficulty of obtaining 🥺.
Good evening, Mr. King of Noodles and Sake 🐥.
I'm glad to join the Yamaoka family club 🤭I will devote myself to finding the best match of flavors 🙋🏻♀️I think meeting sake is a matter of luck and timing 😌I hope we all have good luck with sake ⤴️ ✨.
Good evening, Tsubu 🐥.
Dora, you're right 😏 maybe it was that sake store. I've stood in line for Hatsumode and ramen before, but I've never stood in line this long to buy sake, so I was very excited 😣I'm doubly happy to visit the Yamaoka family on the same day 🤗Yay!
It is a limited-edition sake made with edible rice (Hitomebore from Gunma Prefecture) with a 35% rice polishing ratio 🤗.
The aroma is reminiscent of melon and pear, and the taste is mellow, thick, sweet, and delicious 😚 The balance between the fine gasiness on the tongue and the slight bitterness of sweet and sour taste makes the aftertaste feel lighter as you drink more 😚.
Regit?
I looked it up... seriously? Gah! 🙄 Slang?
It's legit.
I'd like to say, "I'm sure it's legit..." 🤭J&N~! Please let me know!
Thank you Jay & Nobby! I can use this in my daily life 😁It's nice to be in an environment where I can feel the live English around me 🍀.
The fact that the makers themselves put "legit" on the sake is a great compliment to the sake rice 🍚.
I got it as a souvenir from Miyazaki 🤗.
It's a medium sweet-umami type with a soft, melon-like aroma....... The back palate is sweet and sour with a hint of bitterness 😋.
Thank you for the meal...
Sake from Kurume ~!
We got it as a souvenir🤗
It takes courage to buy it on the shelf of a liquor store while paying attention to the date of manufacture...so I took it in front of me.
The date of manufacture is... summer⁈
It has a light, somewhat classical mouthfeel, with a full-bodied flavor and a spicy sharpness. I felt it was a good sake to accompany Japanese food 😌.
Thank you for the food 😌.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🐥.
I'm surprised you knew so well 😃! I didn't know that until I received it as a gift! I saw your website and you have a great lineup, I was also interested in the red Junmai Ginjo 😋.
I got it as a souvenir🤗.
It has a smooth aroma reminiscent of melon and softness. The aroma is a little different from modern, with a slight woody and malted rice aroma, giving it a slightly classical feel.
In the latter half, it has a rich umami with a slight bitter sharpness 😌.
Thank you very much for the food!
The cork is not half hard!
Light opening sound!
The sweet ginjo aroma is softly reminiscent of melon and pineapple. When you include it, you will feel the stimulation of fine gas and the spread of soft malted rice aroma. The aroma is rich, sweet, and deliciously juicy, with a lingering, gently bitter aftertaste.
I told him that I was nervous that they might sell out because I knew they only had two in stock, but he said, "Oh no...it's a maniac genre and they still have some left...". Is that so? I was so excited.
I was very nervous, but he said, "No, no, no... it's a very popular genre of sake, so it's still around.
The aroma is softly banana, vanilla, and sweet floral. It also has a hint of cork, whey, raisins, and a lingering acidity and umami flavor that hits the throat.
I felt some bitterness when it was cold, so I preferred it at room temperature. When warmed up, the roundness and richness are more pronounced 😚.
Sake degree +7
Acidity 2.3
Good evening, Matsuchiyo-san 🐥.
I like freshly squeezed sake, but I also like to enjoy it while exploring its complex aroma 🤭.
I'm impatient to revisit the Sentori Retro's predecessor ⁈Classic Sentori while it's still in the store 😅.
I think it was around the summer of 2023 when I got it in a lottery at a liquor store, but I cherished it too much to open the bottle...
I'll follow Mr. Muro's example and give myself a treat 🤗.
The vanilla and sandalwood flavors from the Mizunara oak barrels that characterize the lot are quite impressive. The rich aroma and sweet and sour taste layered with grefr, tangerine, and wood vat feel are exceptional 😌.
Good morning, Kotori 😃!
Oh! I'm so glad you won 🎊It's hard to know when to open the bottle if you keep it 😅.
Reward yourself ‼️ and let's do it together 👋
Good morning, Kotori-san😄You won the lottery! I am so jealous! You have it, Kotori-san 😄 A treat for yourself! Shinsei-san is good because it is described in great detail in the description!
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 🐥Sneakily...🎂Because it's my birthday month, I can get excited 🤭I can only thank MKT and MSDY for the draw 😭We both don't don't 😂.
Good morning, Sashu 🐥.
Daily patrol😎 is the key 😉 Nante I can only thank the liquor stores for giving us the chance to meet rare liquors even if it is by lottery 🥺 The description of the characteristics is very informative 🥺.
Hi Kotori-san!
It's a great reward 💕I'm thinking about when to open the bottle 🤔I've finally got Senkou's Edobari in stock now, but I'm thinking about when to drink it 🥺.
Shinsei🍶 is always available 😁✌️
Hi Muro 🐥.
I'm so jealous that you can pick up various types of Shinmasa ✨ anytime you want 🥺.
I'm baffled by the variety of Sentori's Edo Bari series, but I'd love to catch up with them, including the vintage ones 🤗.
Good morning, Kotori - ☀️
That's great! You won this one too 😳
You've got it, Kotori 😆👏.
Reward yourself for working hard every day ♡♡♡!
Let's open a lot of good sake 😘👍
Hi, Tsubu-chan 🐥.
Thank you 🎯🎯MKT 🤗but even Dora-san won the Shinsei-sama✨, which reminds me of the Red Comet ☄️, right? 🤭If you think about those odds 😳👏🏻 may we both be lucky enough to get it (regularly) 😊.
Finally, we have welcomed the Sogape of our dreams 🥹Thanks to those who gave us tips through Sake no Wa 😌.
A fresh sour aroma rises from the bottle when you twist the screw. When poured into a glass, it has a cute sweet aroma with a hint of a traditional sake yeast yeast.
The light, refreshing sweet and sour taste in the mouth has a hint of green, lemon, and a hint of wine yeast...it's so good you won't believe it's sake....
I'm so happy to be able to enjoy the changes in flavor over a few days 🥰.
Hi Kotori 😃
Congratulations on your long awaited sogape 🤩.
I could feel your joy 🥰I have this one on my list to try someday too ❣️ It looks delicious 😋 I hope I can come across it someday ☺️
Hi Hina Hana Mama 🐥.
I worked hard to find Sogape 🚃.
It's great that there are so many special dealers in Tokyo for any sake you want to buy 🍀 I hope you get a chance to visit ☺️ HinaHanaMama!
Hi Kotori 😃!
Congratulations on your long-awaited sogape recapture ㊗️ 🎊I had a great drink outside during my trip to Nagano 😋and then I saw it in a liquor store but gave it up because it was only available in magnum bottles 😢We are definitely a favorite type of people so I would like to get it 👍.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🐥.
I would love to enjoy it at the Obuse brewery someday too 🥹You know that even a magnum bottle is delicious enough to be flattened by two horsepower 🤗I wish it was available in Utsunomiya too...gusun!
Thank you for your daily advice, Matsutiyo 😊I finally welcomed you 🥹I'm so envious that you enjoy different types of home-aging every year 🤭I'm also looking forward to the sweet sake 🤭.
Good evening, Tsubu-chan 🐥.
I'm so glad to finally welcome you 🤗You guys drank sogape (& cola, was it?) on your trip to Nagano, Japan! I'm so jealous of your light footprint 🥺! I envy you for being so light on your feet 🥺I only had magnums when I went to buy some in Kochira... I guess I'm just greedy 🤭.
Congratulations on your first sogape, Kotori 🎉🎊
It's magnum, so you can enjoy it slowly! Even better👍✨
I see you have sakekasu 😳I haven't experienced this type of flavor type sakekasu, so I'm curious to see what it tastes like😊.
Thank you, Pon-chan 🐥🐥.
Pon-chan's long-running flavor-altering report is quintessential 🥹🥹I couldn't buy it at the local distributor because they seemed to be in the business 🗼🚃The sake cake has more rice grain residue and a hint of apple and yeasty taste 😋.
Tochigi Prefectural Association⛄️Winter Women's Meeting🤗⑩
The master's secret sake, which is aged at minus 10℃ for more than 3 years and shipped after waiting for the right time to drink.
It was a very happy time for me to be able to drink so many delicious sake ✨.
Thanks to the master and everyone as always 😌.
I checked later and it was over 13,000 yen for a bottle 🫢.
Kotori, thanks for the review of the girls' party😊It was fun, delicious and a really great time ☺️♡ Well, now that we both finished the race, it's time to make plans for the next one 😝 when ❓🤣
Good evening, Mr. Muro 🐥.
I was impressed by the precious and rare drinks ✨Thank you for meeting us ✨Four hours of talking and drinking went by quickly and we had a wonderful party 🥹.
Good evening, Tsubu-chan 🐥.
I was also impressed by the unique and delicious sake that is hard to find 🥹It took me a long time, but I finished my post 🥹 🏃♀️➡️ I'm already planning my next one 🤣 looking forward to the spring party 🤭.
Congratulations to Kotori-san and Tsubu-chan for finishing the race. ☺️ Nanoha continues to be a slacker! But don't worry, I'm drinking! I'm drinking 🤣🤣𐤔
Good evening, Kotori 🌙
I enjoyed reading your review of the Prefectural Women's Association 🥳.
I was so happy to see how well everyone got along with each other ♫
Nanoha, good morning 🐥.
Thanks 😊It took me a while, but somehow 😅Please post at your own pace! The annual Nanohigu pair spring sake trip is almost here! Enjoy 🤗
Good morning, Kotaro 🐥.
There are 10 bottles lined up, but refills are allowed, so I drank a lot 🤪🤪Thanks to the master ✨He really is! It's hard to believe that we met at Sake no Wa, we've become such good friends 🥂🥹🥹uruuruuru!
Tochigi Prefectural Association⛄️Winter Women's Meeting🤗⑨
Soft taste, a little pear-like ginjo aroma, and just the right amount of sweetness. It has a soft mouthfeel, a hint of pear?
We have to go to Fatty's to buy it around here.
Light and airy...
The ginjo aroma reminds me of a pineapple just before it is fully ripe, and the taste is clear, sweet and sour with a rich, bitter finish.
