It's Akagisan time when you're tired from a full day of running ✨. As it is getting hotter and hotter, the cool, perfectly chilled "Akagisan" with its refreshing coolness, light rice flavor, and pleasant dry taste is exceptional!

The Aizu rush continues with Genzai, Izumikawa, and Hiyuki, so I opened a bottle of this one that I got the other day! I've been curious about this kijoshu type for a while, so my expectations are maxed out 🔥. When we opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was fresh with green apple, pear and melon. The palate is moist and round with a rich, dark sweetness. However, it is immediately followed by citrus-like flavors and a crisp, light, acidic astringency. The sweetness disappears without being too persistent, making for a pleasantly slow and steady taste! Of course, it has a crisp aftertaste as well, so even though it is a kijozo-shu, it is a terrific drinker 😈. Surprisingly crisp and refreshing! It is a balancer that is a new frontier of kijo-zake!

The ninth and last cup was the Omachi type "Jikin"! The taste is more ricey, mellow, round and smooth than the earlier Yamada-Nishiki. It has a calm taste with a light apple-like fruitiness. It seems as if it is going to spread out, but then it takes a sudden turn and disappears quickly, so it is rather not too gorgeous, which makes it perfect for both during and at the end of a meal ✨. That's the end of the tour for this time. I was able to nourish my energy in preparation for the Golden Work 💪.

From the 7th cup, we are in the final stages of the game. Welcome to the bosses ✨. We started with "Jikin" on the right. Almost berry-like aroma and clean mouthfeel. Juicy sweet and sour astringent flavor like berry with a little pettiness. The minerality comes and goes without being too persistent, so it is both elegant and stable!

For the sixth cup, I selected my personal favorite "Takayuu" since the topic was Yonago, Tottori, and the Sea of Japan scenery! It has a slight green apple taste. It has a smooth smooth texture and a light dry taste that lives up to its name of "super-harakuchi" (super dry). It has a hard-edged flavor with the umami of the rice, which is always my favorite ✨.

The fifth drink was a selection of Gifu sake, which I hadn't seen in a while, since the topic was Gujo Hachiman and Omi Hachiman! Aroma of chocolate and strawberries. It was smooth, rich, and a little sweet and bitter. It gradually becomes drier and drier, and the final taste is crisp, dry, and delicious!

The fourth cup was "Zuitaka" Kumamoto sake, since we were talking about Kumamoto Castle! Mellow flavor with a mineral and cemedine taste The taste is mellow and dry with a touch of minerality and cemedine. It's a little sweet with a hint of molasses in the middle, and it's a surefire way to warm up ✨. It was 2 years ago when I realized that my 4-night trip from Kyoto to Ehime, Oita, Kumamoto, Saga, Hyogo & Osaka was over. Time flies so fast 💫.

The third cup was "Sentoku" as we were excited about Miyazaki Airport and how to get to Miyazaki! The rice flavor is a combination of a moderate refreshing sweet and sour taste and a spicy astringency that comes later. It is an interesting taste that can be seen in various faces, such as a rich flavor similar to that of shochu, or on the contrary, a clear and crisp flavor 👐.

Good morning, ma-ki! Actually, my friend is also a traveler and we get excited talking about our travels, so I'm very excited about the selection of local sake ✨. It's easy to drink, with no habits and just the right amount of flavor 🤤.

The second cup was "Kido" since we were talking about Koyasan and Nanki! It has a mild banana-like sweet and astringent taste. It has a mild banana-like sweetness and astringency, yet it has a crisp sharpness and a little bit of gaseous freshness that goes perfectly with food! It's a perfect bottle with a good balance of taste and cosiness ✨.

Regular drink with friends 🍶. The first drink is "Tenpyo", which has become my friend's favorite! I'll start with "Tenpyo", which has become my friend's favorite! I've posted this many times, so I'll spare you the details, but the balance of fruity aroma, gentle sweetness & clarity is delicious as always ✨.

We started with "Izumikawa" and then "Tobiroki" in a comparison style, but we decided to open a bottle of "Tobiroki," a jun-dai type, because we wanted to open a bottle of the last boss! When the bottle is opened and poured, the aroma is beautiful and delicate, almost tropical fruit-like. The mouthfeel is light and soft. It has an elegant sweet and sour taste with a hint of minerality. However, it is not that sweet, and is exquisitely balanced with the rounded, aromatic flavor of the rice. Combined with its clear, slippery elegance, it is a delicious taste that can be enjoyed both during the meal and on its own! And the bright acidity cuts it off at the end, so you can't help but drink more ✨. The essential elements of each sake remain the same, with a clear, pure sake quality that allows you to drink it calmly. I can only breathe a sigh of relief and admire them at the same time...!

I've had many chances to get this "sky" but have been putting it off because of the price. However, I wanted to try it at least once, so I finally got it 🔥. When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was sweet, elegant and fresh with a sense of fruitiness. The mouthfeel is moist, and the full sweet flavor of Yamadanishiki seems to soak into your tongue! However, from the beautiful and mellow umami, the dry, acidic astringency gradually stimulates the tongue and tightens it up, almost to the point of a wine-like quality! And finally, the elegance of the wine disappears without a trace. The taste is as good as the rumors say, and you can't help but smile 😋. This is a rare opportunity that comes only three times a year! If I see it again, I'll buy it ✨

I had been saving it to drink at the same time I opened "Izumikawa"! I've longed to compare the two. I will enjoy it slowly and leisurely 👐. When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a beautiful aroma with a hint of muscat. The mouthfeel is smooth, clean, and light. The mild peachy fruitiness is rounded by the umami of the rice. The core flavor and the clear sharpness of the acidity and astringency are even more stylish than the recent "Izumigawa"! The balance of the wine is indescribable, and as always, we are in awe ✨. The balance of the sake is beyond description, which is something I admire every time ✨! The non-habituality that makes it so easy to sip and savor is a quintessential feature of Fukushima 😋.

We have been longing for Izumigawa, which we got on our trip to Fukushima last year! However, it is difficult to manage the stock when 1.8 is sitting there, so we will open the bottle soon. When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a fresh and gorgeous aroma of pears and muscats. The palate is smooth and clean, with a refreshing minerality and a bit of sweetness. However, the sweetness soon disappears and the astringent taste slowly emerges as the main flavor. The full flavor of the rice can also be felt, but it is quickly cut off along with the astringent taste. It is soft and yet smart overall. From the mouthfeel to the finish, it is beautiful and delicious, as if in a flash! This non-habitual austere deliciousness is perfect as a food sake✨. This is a classic local sake with a balance that makes it easy to drink endlessly!

Since the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, we are going to open some spring sakes soon. We will start with the stable of Gunma sake! When the bottle is opened and poured, the aroma is crisp and fruity, with hints of muscat and green apple. The mouthfeel is clean and fresh, as if it were THE Gunma sake, THE Tanigawadake. However, the crispness is subdued, with a soft touch of sweetness. The taste is both cool and gentle, and is similar to that of a peach or a king apple! The full flavor of rice spreads behind it. And it is easy to drink, disappearing clearly. The balance of the two spring sakes in the Tanigawadake series is unbearable ✨. The Maikaze series will be released later this month, so I'm looking forward to it even more...! I think I'll start planning my trip to Gunma this year soon!

Today, I had a drink at a Chinese restaurant famous on TV while I went out for a long trip to take a hot spring bath! The volume and taste of the food lived up to the rumors, and the owner's moves were as sharp as ever. The simple dry sake of "Kiku-Masamune" was a perfect match...! The simple dry sake of "Kiku-Masamune" was also a perfect match...! The food was served on a platter that could fit my entire face, so I was full for the first time in a long time. The food was authentic and well seasoned, but the cost was very reasonable, so I hope to visit again 👍.

The 150th check-in in Gunma is, of course, by Mr. Kikuchi! This time, it is a limited edition bottle of the austere tokkuri type. It is a win-win situation, as it is also a donation to Fukushima, with whom we have a personal connection! The inside is the usual dry sake. It is crisp, clear, and has an excellent cool feeling! The dry, dry taste is lightly flavored with the umami of the rice, and as always, the taste is perfectly satisfying ✨. This sake is named after "Eigoro Omaeida," a chivalrous man who is also related to "Tadaharu Kunisada. It is truly a man's sake!

After 15 hours of sleep, I'm going to have a drink with Hokuriku souvenirs for the first time in a long time ✨. When you open the bottle and pour it, the aroma is fluffy, fragrant and mellow, like butter, nuts and grains. The palate is clear yet punchy with a concentrated full-bodied flavor of Omachi. Yet it is smooth, supple, and flexible. The acidity and astringency slowly seeps into the palate, stimulating it. The expansion and contraction of the flavor is pleasant, and the lingering astringent taste that remains after a refreshing finish is also irresistible. The Omachi type left a strong impression on us when we compared Yamahai wines in Kanazawa. The skill of the master brewer shines through...!

It was obtained on a trip to Aizu last year. After nearly half a year of sleep, it is now ready to be served! When the bottle is opened and poured, it has a fresh, sweet, crisp aroma of pears and apples. The mouthfeel is light and clear. It is smooth and full of sweet umami, with a sharp citrus-like acidity and astringency. It has a refreshing saltiness with just the right amount of roundness and sharpness. It is a delicious taste that can be enjoyed both during a meal and on its own because it is beautiful without being too assertive! A sense of balance that makes it seem complete from the start. The freshness that makes it hard to believe it is fire-roasted is also brilliant ✨. It exceeded my expectations as I thought it would be a simpler special pure 👐. It really embodies the all-around goodness!
