まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo This is the last sake I drank at Fukuzo 🍶. For those of you who think "how much have you had to drink? I think so too😅. The first aroma is sweet with classic acidity. It has a full-bodied sweet flavor with a hint of acidity on the palate. It's also a great costumed honjozo that doesn't make you feel like it's been soaked in alcohol 😋. It was delicious 🍶✨. Thank you for everything, landlady 🙇🙇🙇.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo The owner of Fukuzo and the toji of Kanbokuto are good friends, and this sake was created when she always told the toji of Kanbokuto that it was no good to only make dry sake in this day and age. The initial aroma is slightly sweet. When you put it in your mouth, it is quite sweet and delicious. It has a thick, juicy rice sweetness and umami. Unlike the light and refreshing Kanbokuto shi-bi-en, this one is sweet and juicy and delicious as well ✨.

菊美人特別純米原酒 福岡F44酵母

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo Fire-brewed sake using Fukuoka Prefecture's original yeast called F44. Slightly sweet aroma of 🍍 on the nose. The palate is slightly sweet with a hint of 🍍. The aroma is as if it was made with hana-yosuyu in mind. However, the aroma is weak because it is fire-aged. The sweetness is also weak due to the weak aroma. I am a little curious to see how it would be like if it were a fresh sake. It was delicious ✨🍍.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo The proprietress explained something about this sake, but I was too drunk to remember😅. The first aroma is a faint sweet aroma of koji mold. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel the carbonic acidity, sweetness, and acidity on the tip of your tongue. The slight sourness gives it a sharp finish. It was delicious 🍶✨. The third and fourth pictures are of the brewery and main building of Yamabusyu, located right after getting off at Oshiro Station on the Nishitetsu Amagi Line. This is also a sales only place, no tasting 🥲.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo The proprietress of Fukuzo recommended I try the raw Wakanami sake🌊 produced in February 2019🍶. The top aroma is modest and sweet. In the mouth, it has a slight sense of maturity, modest acidity, and a hint of sweetness and umami. Wakanami's raw sake has an aroma like a gorgeous gal in full bloom and a fresh sweet and sour taste, but this Wakanami had a difference like a woman who has given birth to a child and settled down. I was given an interesting sake to drink. It was delicious ✨ The third picture is of the Wakanami brewery by the Chikugo River. Before I took this picture, a car was coming to pick up the luggage and a strange looking woman came out from the brewery carrying sake on a cart. I looked her up and found out that she was one year younger than me. I didn't recognize her right away because the only pictures I could find on the internet were of her when she was younger 😅. Sorry for being a novice fan 🙇.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo This sake is from the same Kobayashi Shuzo Honten as the "Hakata no Mori" I posted a while ago. Mandai must be more famous locally 🤔. It will be pressed on the morning of Risshun 🍶. The aroma on the nose is fruity🍍 and sweet. When you take it into your mouth, it has a deep, mild sweetness and umami that is typical for a draft sake, and it finishes with a slight astringent taste. It was delicious 🍶✨.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo Tsukitate-san had a bottle of Shiraito Risshun Shibori in February this year and thought it was great 🤤. I asked the proprietress of Fukuzo and she rummaged through the fridge and found it for me 🍶. The first aroma is full and sweet with a hint of lactic acidity. The first aroma is a full sweet aroma with a hint of lactic acidity, and in the mouth it has a light sweetness and fresh acidity. It was more refreshing and delicious than the fire-aged Shiraito 🍶✨.

つきたてGood evening, Matsuchiyo! It's amazing to meet you at this time of the year! And I'm glad you drank a lot of Fukuoka sake😄I have a lot of respect for you because you drink brands and stuff I've never had myself 🤩.
Japanese>English
まつちよGood evening, Tsukitate-san 🍶. No, no, it's thanks to the owner of Fukuzo who bought a lot of sake to put to sleep 😆. I was born in Fukuoka too. I would like to continue drinking Fukuoka sake from now on 😊.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo Back to Fukuzo again, it will be the "Kitaya" brand of Kitaya. The top aroma is slightly sweet. In the mouth, there is a slight astringency with a thick juicy sweetness and umami. The taste is then broken up by a slight astringency. Although this sake is not labeled as a pure sake, it is a strong and robust sake like a pure sake, which is perfect for me as a lover of pure sake 😊. It was delicious 🍶✨ The third photo is the main building of the former Fukushima Sake Brewery in Yame City, which is now being converted into a hotel. According to the information from the proprietress of Fukuzo, it is operated by Kitaya.

まつちよ@SagaSakeDining Saga Kura Back to sakes on my Fukuoka trip 🙂. I had a few sakes I had never had before from Saga at Saga Kura on the second floor, which is owned by the owner of @sakebar Fukuzou. Manrei is a sake from Komatsu Sake Brewery in Karatsu City 🍶. It has a faint sweet aroma on the nose. It has a slight sweetness and a slight bitterness of amino acid, which is often found in fully fermented sakes. It is a rare super dry sake for Saga sake, but it was refreshing and quite delicious 🍶✨.
Japanese>English
しぇり〜Good evening, Mr. Matsuchiyo 🙂. Saga sake is fruity and my favorite type of sake, but it's super dry. It's nice when paired with food 😌.
Japanese>English
まつちよGood evening, Mr. Shiri 🍶. I asked for a specific brand and they said there were super sweet and super dry, so I went with the rare super dry one 😆. It was quite a tasty sake for a meal: ☺️

まつちよWe also had a white label (Sake degree +2) served hot 🍶. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of alcohol. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of alcohol, and the second aroma is sweet and umami, like a soft and mild millet sugar. The lingering sweetness gradually fades away. I had a chance to drink this white label last year when it was aged at room temperature, and compared to that, I felt it lacked a little bit of flavor. I felt it lacked a little bit of flavor compared to the one I had last year. I guess Asahi Wakamatsu is only matured. I think I prefer it warmed up or cooled down. ☺️ It was delicious 🍶✨ If I had to choose between the two, I'd go for the white label. But I don't know how the dark blue label would change if I let it sit for a while 🤔. I'd love to buy a bottle if they sell a four-pack, but they're hard to find in Tokyo 🙄.
Japanese>English
KabGood evening, Matsuchiyo 😃 Naga Sake Brewery has resumed brewing 🙌 It is true that aging is the realm of the brewery, but congratulations first of all!
Japanese>English
まつちよGood evening kab🍶. I'm glad to hear that you are doing well ☺️ But the price has increased by 20% of what it was 2 years ago😅. Well, I guess it can't be helped.

boukenGood evening again, Mr. Matsuchiyo 😁. The special distributor in Osaka said they only sell in-store and there is a limit on the number of bottles 😥The price was originally a little high, but they raised the price even more💦.

まつちよI have more sakes from my Fukuoka trip 😅I compared different tanks of Asahi Wakamatsu, which has resumed production after 2 years 😆. We started with the dark blue label (Sake degree +5) 🍶.

I think I prefer it warmed up or cooled down. ☺️ It was delicious 🍶✨

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo Kinran Fujimusume is a sake made by Goto Sake Brewery in Kuroki-cho, Yame City 🍶. There are only 5 check-ins at Sakebar Fukuzo and I had no idea about it until I came to Fukuzo😅. By the way, Kuroki-cho is the birthplace of Hitomi Kuroki 🙄 although it became Yame City due to a merger of towns and villages. The first aroma is faintly sweet. When you take it into your mouth, you will find a gentle sweetness with a smooth and elegant mouthfeel that is typical of daiginjo-style sake. It finishes with a slight astringency. It was delicious 🍶✨.

まつちよGood evening, bouken-san! I've only been drinking sake for a short time, but I've never heard of many of the sake that you drink, and I'm always impressed 🤣.
Japanese>English
まつちよAs a reflection of last year's trip to Nara, I was trying to avoid drinking famous sake available in Tokyo as much as possible, so Fukuzo was great. Please let me know if there are any bars around Hyogo, Osaka, or Kyoto that specialize in local sake 🍶.
Japanese>English
boukenAsano Sake Shop in Hamamatsucho has a wide selection of local sake from various prefectures in Kyoto, Umeda, and Sannomiya 🙄. I don't think there are many bars in Kansai that specialize in local sake 🤔.
Japanese>English
boukenYuasa Sake Shop in Nishinomiya offers a wide variety of minor sake from Hyogo.
Japanese>English
boukenAlso, if you are planning to visit Nara again, I recommend you to go to Nara Izumi Yusai 👍they have many brands that are not available outside of Nara 😆 You can buy them if you like them.
Japanese>English
まつちよAsano-san in Tokyo is still halfway about sake in the Kanto region, but that's how it is in Kansai 🤔. Yuasa Sake Shop sounds interesting. I'm planning to do a sake brewery tour in Hyogo someday, so I'll try to visit then. ☺️
Japanese>English
まつちよThat's right. I was only in Nara city for one night, plus I had drinks with friends in Kyoto and stayed in Kashihara the next day😅. I knew I should have gone to Izumi Yusai after all 😌.

まつちよ@sakebar Fukuzo Hakata city seemed to have had a hard time during the Corona, and we had some "aged sake" in our store case from that time 😌. The nose has a sweet aroma with a hint of maturity and acidity. In the mouth, it has a full-bodied sweetness with a slightly stronger acidity than the R5BY. It is not as fresh as the R5BY new sake we had the other day, but this was delicious ✨🍶.

まつちよI was going to make the 400 check-in the best sake I had on my trip to Fukuoka, but the first one I had on the first day of the trip, Ayahana Nama Sake, was so good that I posted it without thinking twice... 😇 So I'm going to put the Fukuoka trip sakes on hold and this time it will be my favorite Chochin that I opened after returning from the trip 🍶. This is my first time to drink yamahai Chochin. The first aroma is sweet with a hint of acidity. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the gas on the tip of your tongue. It has a slight acidity and astringency with a sweetness that you would not expect from a sake with a sake strength of +7. The lingering flavor is typical of Omachi, and it gradually fades away. The acidity of Yamahai is a good accent. The acidity is not that strong, but as a lover of acidity, I really like it. It looks good heated, but it's also great cold. Great as a food sake 🍶. I think I'll buy another bottle and see what I can do with it 😆. The Namajuku at the end of the year was great, but this Yamahai Chochin is great too. Not just good, but delicious 🍶✨.
Japanese>English
アラジンCongratulations on your 400 check-ins, Matsuchiyo! ㊗️🎊🎉㊗️ Sometimes it's so good that you end up posting about it. ☺️ The fact that there are so many sakes that you want to make a "Kiriban" is a proof that you have many encounters with great sakes👍Good for you😊.
Japanese>English
マナチーCongratulations on your 400 check-in, Matsuchiyo-san! ㊗️ I know how you feel about saying Chochin's delicious. ☺️‼️ I haven't had Chochin's Yamahai yet, but this makes me want to try it 😆.
Japanese>English
boukenCongratulations to Matsuchiyosan for 400 check-ins 🎊🎉. Chochin has a high alcohol content but you can still taste the sweetness 😁. I have the impression that it is easy to drink even if it is dry because it also has a gaseous taste 😋.

ポンちゃんCongratulations on your 400th check-in, Matsuchiyo-san! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 You chose a delicious and acidic sake, just like Matsuchiyosan😊I think this acidity is my favorite type of sake, so I want to try it. ❣️
