Purchased after tasting at Takarazuka Hankyu I thought it was too refreshing from the tasting, but I thought it might be possible during a meal. It's like clear water, but a little smoky. It felt even more refreshing than when I tasted it💦. I wonder if the smokiness is a peculiarity of this brewery. I'd like to see more depth of flavor, but I guess that's not the concept of this sake. I'm sorry to say this after tasting it, but I preferred the hi-ire junmai ginjo, but ended up choosing the nama-shu. I'm a sake drinker, so I got into the bad habit of choosing nama-zake even if I thought the taste was subtle. The smokiness went away when I transferred it to a Sandesi.

I thought ikkoku would sell out if I didn't buy it early, so I bought it as soon as I could😅. The label doesn't say, but it's a draft sake. It has a low alcohol content and a gentle taste. Slightly sweet and slightly effervescent. It's so refreshing and easy to drink like water. Banana 🤔. Sweet and easy to drink.

Hello Pon-chan ☀☀☀☀. I think the isseki was 100 bottles, so I think Kochira only has shogou, so that's about 250 bottles 🤔. I moved early because ikkoku flower yeast was sold out immediately before 😁.

Sake purchased on the way home from a BBQ at Wakata's house It is not very sweet, or rather slightly spicy, but has a strong umami flavor. It is bursting with Omachi character. The latter half and the aftertaste are very fruity. It was made in April, but I wonder if it has been in the warehouse. It seems to have matured a little 🤔. Well, I don't mind it because I think Wasshin has a positive effect on the quality of sake even if it has an aged feel. I think it might be the same as the sake I bought about 3 years ago with the plague banished label, but it didn't have the tea-like taste that I felt in the sake I drank before 🤔. I was thinking tea-like = Wasshin. The Junmai Daiginjo I drank at the Sakai Off-line Meeting in June also didn't have the tea-like taste, so maybe it depends on the BY.

Hakuba Nishiki, a Chateraise limited edition. I heard it was spicy, but it was more fruity than I expected. Slightly sweet with a short aftertaste. Hmmm, the sake they bring to the department store was spicier, but the taste itself might be better... I thought I would have preferred Hitogokochi, but they didn't sell it in the store, and it said on their website that it was mail order only... Personally, I'm quite disappointed that Le Lac is no longer sold... I tasted some Hakuba Nishiki at a department store the other day, but it was not worth the price 🤔.

I tasted it and it was delicious, so I bought it. The rice is Kitashizuku. The top aroma is certainly muscat-like. It is slightly effervescent and has a sweet taste. It is a summer sake, so it is refreshing and has a good umami taste. Tochigi Ai🥰 is a favorite at both off-line meetings and for drinking at home.

I've been secretly paying attention to Akita Haru since I drank Ace. I've been curious about Akita Haru Daiginjo since I saw it at Yamaya. I couldn't find any reviews on it in my search, but T.KISO drank it quite a while ago and it looked good, so I bought it 😁. It has a fruity ginjo aroma and a rich sweet flavor. The end has a sharpness that is typical of aluzoe. The fruity aftertaste lingers for a long time. Maru-san told me about an Ace distributor? I hope to visit one soon 😊.

Purchased at Icoma tasting Rice is FUKUNOHANA. 23BY and aged for 1 year in ice temperature. It is 15% low al at Takezumi. It has a slightly effervescent, cemedine-like flavor with a rich sweetness and a slight pungency that lingers in the second half of the bottle. I think it is relatively easy to drink among the Takezumi brands. The acidity is also noticeable. The closer to room temperature, the more fruity and sweet it becomes, the more I like it. But I think the base is spicy 🤔.

There is a place in KITTE where antenna stores come in different months, and I bought it at the time of the Nagoya City antenna store. I really wanted the Junmai Ginjo, but it was sold out, so I bought this one. Matsuchiyo-san used to drink this sake. I thought it was going to be a classic, but it had a citrusy fruity taste that was a letdown in a good way. It says it's supposed to be lukewarm, but it's totally fine as a cold sake. I'd love to try some of the other specs, like the raw sake.

Good evening, Mr. Matsuchiyo. The basic taste doesn't change much whether opened or after some time, so I guess it's the original taste 🤔. I have the impression that the fruity taste decreases with time 😅.

Purchased this when I bought Genmai. Slightly effervescent, with a sweet apple-like flavor as described on the label. The second half of the rich sweet-umami taste is crisp and clean, just like Aruzoe. I don't drink it often, but Tetorigawa is never a bad choice. When the temperature goes up, you can feel the bitterness like Aruzoe. I bought it because I've never seen this sake before even in Tedorigawa, so I thought it was rare, but later I found a lot of it in Takatsuki Hankyu 😅. Takamimoto also had it 💦.

Purchased at the Fukushima Prefecture Antenna Shop held at Hankyu Umeda Station on a three-day weekend in July I thought it was unusual that they used Amanotsubute rice. It seems to be edible rice from Fukushima Prefecture. I thought it would be a classic type, but it is quite light, fruity, and dry. It also has a hint of lactic acidity. The description says it's lightly cloudy, but it's just a light orikara. The higher the temperature, the stronger the classic taste comes out. It is made by Nikawa Shuzo and bottled by Wakaseki Shuzo, but Wakaseki Shuzo was originally established as a joint bottling company, so I wonder if it is a pattern like Okunomatsu. The guidebook of Fukushima Prefecture's sake breweries that I got at the antenna store was a good read. There are still many sake breweries I don't know 🤔.

I went to Hanshin Department Store after the Honshuichi tasting, but didn't buy anything... When I visited again on the last day, they were sold out of all the fresh sake, so I regretted that I should have bought Isobeki. After Hanshin Department Store, we went to Takarazuka Hankyu. The Muromachi Sake Brewery from Okayama was there! We drank Sakura Muromachi Junmai Ginjo Bizen Gen It seemed that they had had a special junmai Bizen Gen in the past. I had an image that the special junmai was dry, but the junmai ginjo had a slight ginjo aroma and a clear yet tasty flavor that was quite good! Seto Contract Cultivated Rice Junmai Sake Seto Omachi It tastes good at room temperature or warmed up. Ginjo Nama The same label is not on the official website, but I wonder if Ginjo-Omachi Namaizu is the equivalent product. It was very refreshing and tasted like water, but there was nothing else I wanted so I just bought it 😅. I was surprised at the amount of tasting they gave us 😅. I wanted to drink the Araubashiri Unfiltered Nama Sake that they serve in the winter time. I wish they brought it since the official website says it's in stock 🤔.

Icoma Sake Shop Honshu Ichi Tasting (2) Honjozo Unfiltered Nama Sake Not fruity, but sweet like the fire-brewed version we had before. Yamahai Junmai Nama-junmai Nama-junmai This is the first Yamahai sake brewed by Honshuichi, and they say it was left in the brewery for a year. It is a different type of sake from the others, partly because it is Yamahai, and it left a strong impression on me. This time, I bought this one. Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu This is a sake that is only brought to tastings. It was gorgeous, juicy, and very tasty, but at 5,000 yen, I can't afford to drink it on a regular basis😅. The entrée was a saboroshi (a type of fish paste) that was purchased at a butcher shop in Osaka and edamame (green soybeans) from Amagasaki. The saboshi was so good I ate it several times 🙏. I think saboshi is the best snack for sake 🤔.

Icoma Sake Shop Honzuichi Tasting (1) The second Honshu Ichi tasting this year Oh, it's not the best in Honshu, it's the best in Honshu 😺. We drank Junmai Nama-nihonjunshu straight from the bottle. I don't know if I've uploaded this, but I think I've tasted a sample in the past. Fruity, juicy, sweet and delicious! Junmai Unrefined Nama Harusake It's a raw version of the one that is sold to the public. He said it's the same tank as the direct pumped version, but the difference is that it's either directly pumped or not. I bought this at another liquor store in the past and drank it at home. It's a little weaker than the nao kumi, but fruity. Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-Ginjo As with Junmai, this is a raw version of a commonly distributed product. It has a nice aroma and a strong umami flavor. It has both mildness and strength.

The day after the Sakai offline meeting, we had a Honshu Ichi tasting at Icoma Sake Shop 😆. It was raining and I thought it would be empty, so I went there right after the start and it was very crowded... I was allowed to drink the sake that a customer gave me before the Honshu Ichi 😁. I often come to the department store, but I don't often drink the Seven Crowns Horse 🐎. I wonder if the Uma Musume effect will make it a big seller or something 🤔. It's a summer sake, but it's not thin or light, it's very drinkable and tasty 😋. I also drank Shichikanma's Active Nigori and CWS's Narumi, but I didn't take pictures of them 😅. I've had Shichikanma's Active Nigori in the past, but it was as good as ever! The CWS Narumi I've had in the past was very sour, but this one is more subdued, but I got a similar vibe from it.

Sakai Branch BBQ afterwards (3) I found a bottle of Nagato Kyo's Omachi Nama sake and thought it was unusual, but I was told that there was a tasting of this sake as well, so I tried it! I was told that it was aged for 5 years, but it was delicious with a strong umami taste without feeling too matured. After much hesitation, I bought a bottle of Toyoake Shiny and a bottle of Wasshin no Omachi, which was not available for tasting! After I got home, I searched for sake-no-wa and found that they were drinking Washin no Yumachi with a different label, so I thought I should have gone for Nagato Kyo or Shinkai 😅. Thank you manager for coming just before closing time and letting me sample the sake 🙇. He dropped me off at the nearby station and we parted ways with everyone. Thank you for a great time 🙏.

Sakai Branch BBQ afterwards (2) Yuki-san was tasting a sake with a label he didn't know, so I asked him about it and he said it was Haginotsuru. I decided to try it too 😋. It's a low-alcohol test brew, and from the label, it looks like it's made with multi-acid yeast. It has a juicy sweetness like green apple with a gentle mouthfeel. Hmmm, so many sake I want 🤔.

Sakai Branch BBQ afterwards ①. We arrived at the liquor store wondering if we would make it in time for closing time. The name of the store is different from "Sake no Wawa," but it is the ABC Nakamozu store of sake. They had three varieties of Toyoake on the shelves, and I was told that I could sample two I had never had before. Sorry for the late closing time! They have recently started to sell it! I think it's an orthodox Junmai, fire-roasted, but not flashy, sweet, apple-like and modern! I tasted the new Shiny and bought this one!

Sakai Branch BBQ⑧ We had Toyoaki for the last time! I thought it was a "Hi-ire" sake, but the label on the back of the bottle said it was a "Nama-zake" (pure sake). Probably the same as the one we drank at the Kokusyu Sake Fair. Sweet and fruity. Pineapple type. If you like sweet and fruity, this will definitely appeal to you! I had shaved ice with Houou Mida blood orange on it 🍧 It was bitter-sweet and delicious 😋. The party started around 12:00pm and ended around 7:00pm as the sun went down. I thought the hospitality was wonderful, as if they are used to having people over at their house 🥺. I guess your daughter is used to it too, because she was able to talk to the drunks in a normal way 😊. After saying goodbye to Umaisan, Rutemi and Maru, we went to the liquor store with Wakata and his family... More to come 😌.

Sakai Branch BBQ ⑦ We have red-built F. I was allowed to drink it 😁. It was in a pack of Takashimizu sake, but I was told that this Takashimizu sake is so good that I can't believe it is a pack of sake, so I will go buy it soon 🤔. I heard that Maru-san drank some Takashimizu before and he was sunk 😅. I guess that's why it's so easy to drink. Sake made with Iwate yeast and 60% polished rice. It's not alcoholic, but it doesn't feel like it is 😋. Very easy to drink and very dangerous 😆. It's a high-grade aluzoe sake, just like the Masamune Instrument.
