I'm trying to fill in the map of undrinkable prefectures 😁I finally found a one-cup Miyoshikiku sake 💡I bought it immediately.
The aroma is so fruity, like apple and muscat 😚 that it's hard to believe it's a one-cup sake.
It is a refreshing and light drink with a pronounced sweetness and sourness 😊 I am satisfied with the taste as expected.
This week, I went on a family trip to Sendai ♨️ and had a solid inbound beef tongue. It's good 😋.

Good evening, Mr. Studying!
You're steadily filling up the map: ⤴️
Your review looks great, even if it's only one cup 😋.
And the trip to Sendai sounds good 🎵.
I also remember the beef tongue I had there in the past 😊.

Good evening, ma-ki-san. ☺️ There are only 3 prefectures left, but Okinawa is difficult 😓 The kids are on spring break, so I whipped my tired body into a trip to make some memories 😅Beef tongue was indeed thick and went well with wasabi 😋.

I was lucky enough to get a bottle of 寫楽 ORIGARUMI that was delicious when I was out drinking 😆 I drank it after my run and it was so good 😋.
I drank it after a run and it was so good 😋It is by far the best ogara-mi I have had recently 😋!
The aroma is fruity, sweet and gorgeous, like lychee and pear, with a soft entry, and the taste is a harmony of sweetness and umami 🎶 followed by sourness and bitterness to finish it off 👍Great sake👍Yum😋I'll bring it back next year. There was not that much gas feeling.
The 4th one I thought it was cherry blossoms when I was running, but it was apricot blossoms 😅.

It's a sweet and light one in the Kutouryuu series.
I found a bottle of No. 4 and got it 😊.
It's a light, refreshing and easy to drink food sake, too refreshing and feels like water 😁 similar to Tenpyo or Gagakuyo Gekka. On the first day, there was a slight alcohol smell, but the hint of aroma was melon🍈 sweet and sour, deliciously served with hand-rolled sushi.
I am busy at the end of the year, but I am also busy with business trips 😅I had a delicious fugu sashimi on such a trip. It was also delicious with a lot of sake.

I had just one glass at an atmospheric izakaya near Wakayama station, where I was on a business trip. It is a famous sake from Wakayama 🍶.
The color is quite yellow. The texture is soft on the tongue with a strong umami flavor. It was delicious and went very well with the meat suji and grilled eggplant. ma-ki - as you commented, it is slightly sweet and not flashy, but more than a classic but easy to drink 👍.

After I purchased it, it had been waiting in the cellar for a while. I had several opportunities to drink it outside, and each time I groaned, but this is the first time I've had it at home. The design and font of this simple but presentable bottle are wonderful.
When I drink outside, I go after the beer, so the initial feeling is different. I didn't know it had a fruity aroma and dry taste😅 but once it gets to room temperature, the sweetness increases and the taste becomes sweet and tasty, and then it finishes with a good acidity. It's so well balanced that naturally I can't stop 😆 It soaks into your body 😊.

Here comes the last player of Nigorinpikku 👏 I still bought too much at the end of the year even though I can't drink a lot lol.
The sake was well chilled in the sake cellar, but when I opened the bottle, it started stirring automatically ▶️ and soon it looked like a beautiful snowy landscape ❄️.
Sparkling nigori sake is still good 😋.
It tasted gassy and fresh melon 🍈 Sweetness was subdued but came out on the second day.
That's the end of the nigorinpikku😁.
I'm sure someone will scold me for saying everyone is different and everyone is good, but I'll leave this as a reminder for myself 📝.
I guess the first drink leaves a stronger impression and is more advantageous 😅Each one had its own personality and was delicious.
First place: Yamanokotobuki Winter Session
No.2 Ohrei Winter no Otosore
Third place: Ona Nigori
No.4 Amei, the leader of the sake world

There are only a few prefectures left that I haven't tasted yet 😁This is my first time in Miyazaki Prefecture. I found Sandesi's Sentoku at a Miyazaki Prefecture antenna store in Shinjuku 💡. The aroma is weak and neither the fragrance is very strong. It is an easy-to-drink mid-meal sake with a light and refreshing taste with little sweetness. It is a sake to taste the flavor of rice. It is tastier than what I had imagined 😊.

February is already over 😌Spring will be here soon, but I'm relieved that I won't be transferred somehow😊.
This is the 8th bottle of Nigorinpic. This time it's Fudo, which I wanted to try once 🍶.
It's quite cloudy. I was very nervous at the first contact with it.
This one is much easier to drink than it looks, with an alcohol content of 18%, and you don't even feel it. ☺️ The aroma is uncharacteristic, with a little sweetness and a strong sense of umami and sourness, and a good amount of chirpiness, which goes well with duck and beef, and has a deep flavor 😄.
By the way, this is the last sake of February 🍶. It will soon be 2 years since I started Sake-no-wa, and the second year I drank 80 bottles in terms of Yong-bottles. 63 bottles in the first year, so the number of bottles per month has increased 😅I'll aim for 70 bottles in the third year.

Good morning, studying 😃.
Congrats on your first Fudo 🎉 ㊗️
We were at a pace of 12 per month when we went from 500 to 600 CI 🤗because we're two horsepower 😅I'd say about 72 per year for one of us 🤔.

We are gradually filling in the undrinkable prefectures😊.
Yamanashi prefecture I had not yet had a chance to meet. I chose Tadasan.
The aroma is fruity and the mouthfeel is smooth, but when I put it in my mouth, the alcohol taste was the first thing that bothered me.
The color is quite yellow and it has a moderate sweetness and umami. The acidity makes it crisp, so it goes well with a meal.
I paired it with cod on the first day and with Iburi Goko cheese on the second day. Fire-roasted? Maybe that's why it tastes good with little change in flavor, but I was worried about the alcohol taste until the end 😅.

Nigorinpikku: It's not over yet 😆 This is the 7th bottle of nigori sake. This is also a sake brewery that I was interested in at Sake-no-wa. This is the first time for me. My daughter smelled it and said it was apple, so it must be apple. The fragrance is also apple🍎.
On the first day, there was no stirring, probably because it had just been released from the sake cellar, and the sweetness was subdued. It tastes light, mild, and not nigori-ish 😁.
On the second day, sweetness also comes out and it tastes well-balanced and delicious, but on the third day, pungency, bitterness, and astringency prevailed 😅 As a result, I preferred the second day.
The third picture is that I ate a roll cake at a cafe in Nishiogi because my mouth got lonely as I was slowing down my drinking 🤳.

This is the first bottle in February. Finally, this is the first time it has landed in Okayama Prefecture, a prefecture where I have not yet tasted it. It is a white peach yeast, and the aroma is just peachy lol.
I thought it was sweet and easy to drink at the beginning, but it has a peculiar taste of alcohol and bitterness later on.
It's like a roller coaster, with the character changing between the first and second half. Anyway, the first half is sweet and refreshing, and by the third day, the peculiarity of the second half is gone, and it is my favorite state. It's good 😋.
By the way, the results of the recent checkup were disappointing as my liver values were not good😞😮💨 second year of Sake-no-wa was almost 7 bottles a month plus outside drinking, which is an increase from the first year, so I want to reduce the amount I drink. I respect everyone in Sake-no-wa who seems to be getting along well with Sake 🫡.

This is the orikarami (draft) version of Shu.
I had enjoyed Shu at an outing before, so I bought it without hesitation because it was cheap 🍶.
I thought it was going to be nigori, but it was ogara 😅.
There is not so much sweetness, but a noticeable sourness 👏.
The sharpness and the bitterness that comes after are impressive, but in general it's like a grapefruit shochu liqueur.
I'm having a physical exam next week so I'm taking a week off 🎌.

This is my 4th bottle of nigori sake 🍶. I have an image of Ona as dry, but since it had a negative sake level, I decided to go with this one for my first Ona. It is delicious with a fruity aroma, smooth mouthfeel, quite a bit of gas and a bitter taste that comes after 😋.
It went well with spicy food, so it's a good food sake 😊.

This is the first time I have had Yukiten. It's been more than a year since I've had Tenbi, the first time I've had it since the change of master brewer 😆.
Maybe because I chilled it too much, I don't feel that much sweetness and the sourness is a bit stronger 💪The aroma is pear🍐 as Yasube said. The review of Sake no Wa is informative. It's so easy to drink and so good, it'll be gone soon😅.
