Kabutobushi that I missed out on last year.
This year I was able to buy it✨
Yum, too good!
My summer sake ranking
It's tentative No.1 in my summer sake ranking.
Wind Forest for the second time in a year
Yamadanishiki 807→ ALPHA1 Summer Night Sky
From the second day of opening the bottle
I thought it was sake like wine!
500ml was gone in no time.
Was it because I was drinking Kudoku-jote on my first drink?
One sip... and I thought it was ordinary.
But as I took two or three sips, it got more and more... delicious✨.
I thought I was only going to have one, but...
I was going to have a little more...
I drank more than I planned.
Kamenoi Sake Brewery
Bakuren→Forbidden hand
→Yamada-Nishiki 40
It was a sweet sake.
If I hadn't had the Forbidden Hand, I would have praised it highly.
Once again, the forbidden hand is too good!
After drinking the original "apple" last year, I decided to drink strawberry next.
A year has passed since then.
Strawberry is my long-cherished dream!
Was it because my expectations were so high?
I thought I liked apple better.
Next time, I'm thinking of having a Haskaku. Or even melon?
I'm looking forward to seeing you at the store.
After taking a sip, the sweet flavor was very much like Hiran.
Sweet taste followed by a tingling sensation.
Reading the description, it is apparently carbonated.
I put it in a colored glass, so I didn't notice it?
I didn't think it was carbonated because it didn't seem to be squishy when I poured it in.
I think it is a good sake with a refreshing and sweet taste that does not fight with each other.
The label was also nice.
Previously.
Gagakuyo - Tsukihana - Hiiri
I only remember that I drank it all up in an instant.
This time
Garakudai - Zuika - Nama Shu
This time, too, I think I will finish it in an instant.
Quote from the distributor
JAL domestic first class in-flight sake for 2023!
Comment from the brewery
Concept
Garakudai - Zuika" is based on the recipe of "Garakudai - Tsukihana" and is designed to have a richer and mellower taste!
You could say it is a slightly gorgeous version of Gekka!
It is a Junmai Daiginjo standard sake of the Garakudai series.
Comment from Kato, the brewer
This sake is a "light and slightly sweet" type.
When cooled, it tastes light and refreshing, and when it comes back to room temperature, it tastes a little sweeter.
Take your time and enjoy the changes in flavor as you drink it!
Kamo Nishiki Shagafuda-shu Junmai Daiginjo Tank No.133, 14% alc.
At first, I was surprised by the taste.
But the aftertaste is refreshing.
I like this kind of sake.
We opened it a little early as Happy Mother's Day!
It is a sweet sake that seems to be typical of the NIKKOMARU of Hiramaru.
When I drank it the next day, it was just right.
I liked it better the next day than when it was just opened.

Daiginjo Kichijo Kamotsuru
We had the privilege of drinking some of the celebratory sake.
It is a good sake.
100% Yamadanishiki
I think it has an elegant sweetness, light and aromatic. (I don't know if this is the right decision or if the sake has already been passed around.)
If I were to recommend a sake from Hiroshima, I would also recommend Kamotsuru: ‼︎
Dry taste is good.
Kudokyu-teki is really good.

From the Akabu NEWBORN Series
Today's second bottle: Sake Mirai
I prefer this to the Omachi.
I think it has more sweetness the next day after opening.
My personal preference is
Yamadanishiki > Yunokou > Sake Mirai > Omachi
I guess.
NEWBORN in Akabu
This time it is Omachi.
Yamada-Nishiki Yuzunokou, and the atmosphere has changed a little.
My personal preference is
Yamadanishiki > Yunokou > Omachi
I guess.
