昔から日本酒が大好きでしたが、ここ10年の進化は素晴らしすぎます❣️ 「お気に入りの酒屋3軒」「旅先で出会う地酒」が家飲みの入手先。通販を使い始めるとキリがないので、手出ししないように自制してます😅 <追記> 昨年末に念願の卓上御燗器を購入し、冬場は純米酒の飲み比べにはまっています。様々な温度帯で変化する燗酒は、無限の楽しみがありますね❣️

This is the third home brewed spring sake of the season, Raifuku's Sakura Yeast. The label is 🌸 in full bloom ❗️ I like seasonal flower yeast, so I tend to buy flower yeast sake from my favorite brewery ☺️ The taste is gentle and really spring... It is slightly sweet but light, so it goes well with salty or sweet ginger soy sauce flavored home Chinese dishes. Of course, it also goes perfectly with aji sashimi in ginger soy sauce ✨. Harusake is useful at our table because it goes well not only with Japanese side dishes, but also with light home Chinese dishes. Ahh, it was delicious, thank you for the treat 😋.

It has a rounded aftertaste, not overly fresh, not overly dry, and mildly mid-palate. Today, I served it with "KOBU-SHABU SHABU-SHABU," a pork shabu-shabu with a refined aftertaste. Of course it goes well with it, but I am sure it would go even better with "sea bream shabu shabu". I want to drink it at a sushi restaurant, It's a really soft sake. It's delicious!

Shimane Sake (8) This is the last one we bought in bulk at Tamatsukuri Onsen in November. It is an easy-drinking type with a fruity flavor, but it is not overly sweet and has a lingering mid-palate. It is best drunk at room temperature. It is a perfect match for all kinds of home-style dishes, and is a sake that you will never get tired of drinking. If I had it on hand, I would definitely pour it in the first glass. It seems to be a test brew, so it will probably be distributed in the market with a nice name soon 💖. Living in the Tokyo metropolitan area, Shimane sake is hard to come by, but from now on, I'll be sure to check it out when I see it at the liquor store: ‼️

Last weekend's Banshu Ikken Spring Sake was so good that this weekend we are going to have Shungiku Spring Sake🌸. Spring has come to Sono Kangiku. ‼️. It is light, like soda water or freshly squeezed juice. But it is 15 degrees, so you will get drunk after drinking about 2 gou of it. I was nervous about the warning when opening the bottle, but I was relieved to hear it spit out through the crack and not fly away. This is my first time drinking the OCEAN99 series, so I would definitely like to drink them in other seasons. Tonight's main dish was sardine simmered with lots of ginger. It went very well with it and was delicious. Thank you very much for your hospitality 😋.

I drank Banshu Issen for the first time at home. As the label suggests, it has a light, spring-like sweetness and a fluffy spread of umami. Since it is a draft sake, it also has a mild taste, but that too flows smoothly. When the bottle is opened, there is a small pop and a moderate fizz. Everything is light and cohesive, yet it still retains its Banshu Ikkyo character. Tonight we will have hand-rolled sushi. Squid, swordfish, horse mackerel, etc. go well with ginger soy sauce. ❤️ It also goes well with sushi rice. ‼️ Spring is coming soon🌸 Thanks for the food 😋.

Hello, Pon-chan. Spring sake has started to appear in stores little by little! It's different and lighter than new sake or first shibori, and I'm looking forward to pairing it with ingredients that are in season in spring 😊 I'll make love to you

I am a resident of Kanagawa Prefecture, so I love Oyataka Sake Brewery. However, this is the first time I have had a freshly squeezed new brew of Zanko Horai. Tonight, we had horse mackerel and Oyama tofu. They go so well together💓. I've had the year-round version of Zanzou Hourai many times and it's my favorite type, but the new Shiboritate is too delicious with the gorgeousness and freshness of new sake. ‼️ I forced myself to finish the bottle half full since it was a weekday, but if this was on a weekend, I would have chugged the whole 4-goupe bottle 🤗. It was delicious✨thanks for the treat 😋.

Shimane Sake (7) A 4-goupe bottle that I bought in Shimane. Of course I tasted it, but it was the red fox that caught my attention. I've had it on the open shelf in the kitchen since New Year's ✨. Tonight we are having a seafood nabe with miso and ginger. We tried various types of sake, including lukewarm, hot, and tobikiri, but our favorite was the tobikiri. It's a little classical, with a refreshing rice flavor that is typical of Shimane sake, and goes well with a homey nabe 👍. We enjoyed it as if it were sake served at a shrine's autumn festival.

I bought this bottle with the intention of drinking it over the weekend, but even though it was only Tuesday, I couldn't resist opening it😅. As soon as you drink it, it starts off with a pineapple-like sweetness, but soon the sweetness is topped with a clear Kochi sake-like flavor. The aftertaste is not sweet, and I keep drinking it again. Since it was a weekday, I stopped drinking it halfway through, but if it were the weekend, I would open a bottle in no time 😋.

Haneya Tsubasa, which I bought to go with a Western-oriented dinner. It has a light, fresh taste and seems to go well with oil. On the first day, I grilled thin slices of bacon on a griddle and used the fat to grill potatoes and vegetables. The saltiness and flavor of the bacon comes alive. The slight sweetness resets your mouth like water. The second day was "monjayaki" (fried pork with kimchi and mentaiko cheese). ❗️ I had given up on sake for monjayaki, but it went great with it. ‼️ I don't think the toji at Haneya would have thought to pair it with monjayaki. ⁉️ It was really delicious 😋 Thanks for the food. Thank you very much.

I found "Strawberry" in the refrigerator at the liquor store next to the Heki-ban I posted yesterday. All of the Houou Mita liqueurs I have had so far have been unquestionably delicious, so I put my first "Strawberry" in my basket without even thinking about it 😍. It really is strawberry. The sweetness is concentrated and it is almost like strawberry jam. Of course, it is delicious as it is, but I recommend pouring it generously over Häagen-Dazs Rich Milk. It tastes great with vanilla, but the rich milk gives it a more strawberry milk feel ✨. I guess the 5% alcohol gives it more depth of flavor ⁉️ I would love to keep eating it forever, but ice cream in winter is a bit cold 😅.

Tonight's dinner was a day when many wine accompaniments were lined up on the table, such as cured ham, cheese, liver pate, bucket, etc., at the request of the whole family. We had prepared a bottle of wine, but I wanted to pair it with sake, and after much deliberation at the liquor store, I chose this one. The juicy Muscat-like flavor comes first, but it is quickly cut by a quiet acidity. Of course, cheese and cured ham went well with it, but the best marriage was the "dried persimmon and butter millefeuille" ✨ The sweetness of the persimmon spreads softly in your mouth. ‼️ Oh, it was delicious ❤️ Thanks for the treat 😋.

Shimane Sake (6) This is the fourth bottle purchased in bulk at Tamatsukuri Onsen. The 17% alcohol content is limited to Shimane Prefecture, and the one distributed in other prefectures is a slightly lower alcohol content. It is quite heavy, and at room temperature, I give up immediately, but when I warm it up to about 40 degrees Celsius, the softness spreads and I can keep drinking it for a long time 🍶 😙. Tonight we had Chinese style chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) and Oshibushi (Japanese traditional food). This lukewarm sake goes well with the oshibushi. The lukewarm Shimane sake really goes well with a simple simmered dish with carefully prepared soup stock ✨Thank you for the meal 😋.

Happy New Year! We received a gift from a sake friend in Kyoto as a toast to the New Year with a New Year's Day meal. The black bottle with gold letters "fully ripe" was a festive touch. I had never seen this brand before, so I searched the internet and found that a 1.5 liter bottle costs 22,000 yen (‼️) and the 180 ml bottle I received was 1,000 yen, so the small bottle is less expensive 😳 It is a raw sake made from 35% polished Yamadanishiki and fermented at a low temperature. It was carefully crafted and Kyoto-like sake that would go well with kaiseki cuisine.

Our New Year's Eve drink is "Snowman". Today's dinner (afternoon meal?) in our Chinese-loving family is "Yaki-gyoza and sui-gyoza". I went to our usual liquor store to buy some Shaoxing wine or Hakushu (white wine). I went to my usual liquor store and found "Snowman ⛄️" in the back of the fridge. It has a yogurt flavor like makgeolli, so it should go well with dumplings. ‼️ As a result, I was right. Snowmen and dumplings while watching a comedy show. Ah, it was a good year 😋. I wish you all a happy new year!

I have a few bottles at home but "I must drink the first sake of the season," so I went to my first liquor store and chose this second bottle. Recently, I bought a book on Ienchuukan by a Japanese who has lived in China as an expatriate for a long time, and I am looking for sake to go with it. I was inspired by the idea that Kouji's Hatsu Shibori might go well with it ⁉️ and the result was a great answer ....... ‼️ It is perfect for light Chinese home cooking.　I'm going to try a variety of light, fruity, apple-like types for a while 😋.

I wanted to drink a current-style, slightly sweet, slightly sparkling Shiboritate, so I chose this one at my first liquor store. I was lured in by the liquor store's careful explanation of the pop-up. It was well-balanced, light, and easy to drink Miyamanishiki, not too sweet with apple flavors. I was curious about the mandarin-flavored doburoku from the same brewery that was also on the shelves. I should have bought it!

The second bottle from the left, the heaviest and most robust of the five at 17% alcohol by volume, goes well with strong-flavored meat and fish dishes. It is a bit old-fashioned and typical Japanese sake. It is also delicious when heated. I drank Ehime's most popular sake before, but it is still an old-fashioned sake, and you can enjoy the feeling of rice sake 🍶 It will be exceptionally delicious if you drink it at a hot spring ryokan in Ehime. ♨️

When you have five different kinds of sake, you want one dry bottle. The benten in the middle is perfect for a change of pace when western-style meat dishes are served, or when fruity flavors continue. ❗️ It goes well with traditional dry foods, and since it is a draft sake, it is mellow and dry.

Second bottle from the right: Kikuhime This is the sake brewery that made me fall in love with sake when I was young ✨. The BY is a freshly bottled daiginjo with a youthful and refreshing taste, with a fruity base and the classic rice flavor that is typical of Kikuhime spreading elegantly. It is of a quality that makes you want to continue drinking it slowly with just the sake, even without any snacks.
