Autumn is the season of taste, and sake is also brewing and very flavorful.
Like this sake, Omachi has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness, which suits my taste.

While I have been away for a while, the season has changed and it has become much easier to spend time here.
I still have some summer sake left, but I've been enjoying autumn sake.
The Umashin Mansaku is a non-habit forming sake that tastes great cold or warmed up.

I omitted to upload it. It was just as delicious as Houou Mita.
I don't have much of a chance to drink sake from the west, but I will make a conscious effort to drink it from now on.

On my way home from Akita, I bought several bottles of autumn sake at my usual liquor store. I was a little bored with summer sake, and this flavor, this full-bodied feeling, is still irresistibly Japanese and delicious.

It has been a while since I have had Tasake.
The other day, when I had a drink with a junior colleague from Hirosaki, I told him that I had never had tasake before.
It's too bad, I guess it's all in the dark.
I'll buy some and drink it tomorrow! He said, "Don't worry.
Don't worry. I too have known the taste of sake for quite some time now.

Match the food with the drink. Or vice versa. What shall I have? It is a luxurious problem.
Now that everything is going up in price, my favorite bonito is a savior for my wallet. Hikarimi and bonito. It's a good combination.

There seems to be a lot of noise these days about alcohol doing a hundred harms and not a single gain. I think it's a win-win if you can relieve stress in a good mood with good sake...but what do you think?
Hououmida Omachi Jungin has a fruity aroma with a pear-like flavor. The refreshing sweetness quickly fades away, leaving a slight bitterness, and the cup continues to be drunk in search of more sweetness.
Well, if you drink too much, it may do you a lot of harm.

Room drinks on business trips are mostly small bottles (cups) of sake.
It is good that you can drink it all. The labels make me feel like I am on a trip. Like a miniature bottle of whiskey.

According to the 24 solar terms, it is almost "summer solstice. The hot and humid summer heat will soon be over. Today, Aomori is refreshing with cool breezes blowing in the morning and evening.
It is now the season to enjoy full-bodied sake rather than light summer sake.
This "Banjo Kotobuki" has a full-bodied, mellow rice flavor and richness, and will go well with the long autumn nights to come.

About transporting sake.
It takes about 3 hours from Akita to Aomori by Shinkansen.
When traveling by train in mid-summer, I put a 100-something coolant in a Thermos tote, but it doesn't last until Aomori.
I buy ice at the Morioka stop and manage to carry it home.
It tastes good after all the hard work.

Suitama is an Akita sake.
Suitama has a fruity and mellow rice flavor.
It makes me feel excited when I drink it (and even before drinking it).
Suitama is my favorite sake.
I am sorry for my elementary school-like impression.

The long rainy season in northeastern Japan is about to end. Blue skies and iridocumulus clouds can be seen through the cracks in my window.
I've been busy with work every year during the Bon Festival, and today is finally a breather.
It's an ordinary day, but I'd like to make a toast looking back on yesterday.
I am happy to drink special sake in a normal way.

Akita Station was deserted on a Sunday in the middle of summer vacation. It was probably due to the post-Matsuri (Kanto) festival and the rapid expansion of Corona.
Well, it doesn't matter because I was drinking alone in my room.
Takashimizu is famous, isn't it? My grandfather, a stubborn man, used to drink it hot. I miss it.

It is a seasonal, Nebuta-spec label.
For the first time in three years, I decided to drink at home again this year, although it is an event I have been waiting for.
How does the sake taste?
It's great!

Since I was on the train at the time, I thought it would be impossible to buy a bottle, but I found a No. 4 bottle of Hanayuup and bought it.
The aroma was gorgeous, the taste was refreshingly sweet, and the mellow rice flavor was rich and full on the nose. Even the aftertaste is very nice. The balance is very good. I've had many HANA-UPs, but I think I like this one better than the Junmai Ginjo.

I went to the sake store in between my next job. I liked the same brand of Omachi that I drank before and was impelled by the memory of it, and with time pressing, I bought it from among the many sake available at such a time.
Hiragana Azakura is very tasty and lingering. I am glad I bought it.

Today in Aomori.
The city is more crowded than usual with festival preparations and early-coming tourers.
The meaning of jyobari is stubbornness.
It is dry but also sweet.
It is refreshing and very tasty even in summer.

Asakai is often seen at supermarkets in Morioka. It is soft and light in flavor, but has a unique flavor that makes it unique. It is easy to drink for everyday use. (Ginga no Shizuku is Iwate's connection.)

In the summers of my boyhood, I was soothed by beetles.
This is an adult beetle. The aroma is fresh, fruity, and has a clean aftertaste. I am healed again by the light intoxication.
