The fourth glass was a brand I had never heard of before, Sou Yuu's Spring Sake.
It is a moderately sweet and gassy sake with a hint of citrus and minerality 🍶.
It was also delicious. 🙆♂️
The third drink was a bakuren.
As the name suggests, it is super dry and sharp 😳.
I've never had a drink this sharp 🤣.
Well, I guess people who like it like it lol
The second sake was Eikun, a local sake from Fushimi.
It was a new sake for me, but it was a delicious, gentle sake that made the most of Fushimi's water, with a mellow flavor of rice!
Today my wife and I went to a seafood izakaya to end our Kyoto date 🐟.
First drink, I had had Joyo Shuzo's sake before, but this was my first time to try Kento.
It's refreshingly dry and perfect for a mid-meal drink: 🙆♂️
It tasted different from Tokujiro and Joyo.
Purchased at a department store event, this is a local sake from Awa City, Tokushima Prefecture.
The water used is said to be from the Yoshino River.
It is a classic type of sweet sake with a delicious taste of rice.
You can drink it with a gulp. 🙆♂️ lol
The last one is Jyushiyo.
Fruity and fresh like a tropical fruit, a cup that truly has the style of a king. 🙆♂️
I can understand why this brand is so hard to find.
Good morning, Tatsu-san ☀I see you went to the Sake Expo at Harukas Kintetsu 😊Jyushidai looks delicious in a cocktail glass 😋I've never had it at the counter and always get tongue-tied at the free tasting 🤣.
Good morning, Nemuchi-san!
I've had Jyushidai a few times, but this was the best one 😆.
Various sake breweries are here and it makes me tongue-tied lol!
I understand 🤣.
The third cup was Urachiehijin.
It is a fruity sake with a sweeter taste and richer flavor than the first one from Yokoyama.
The aftertaste was clean and refreshing, and I never got tired of drinking it 😆.
Three Kyushu wines were compared at the Kintetsu Department Store event.
The first one was Iki Yokoyama.
I had heard from the owner of an izakaya that this year's Yokoyama was really good, so I wanted to try it at least once 🤔.
A fruity, sweet and catchy one. It was delicious 😋.
Kozutsumi, a local sake from Tamba.
The description says it is fruity, but when you drink it, you will find that it has a freshness with a strong rice flavor.
It may also be delicious as a heated sake.
A little drink after work.
Asakai from Iwate Prefecture, where I've been checking in a lot this month.
It is a sake that has a strong rice flavor and a great sharpness.
It makes me hot!
The last one was Niigata sake.
I have had N-888 from the same brewery, but unlike N-888, this was a light and dry Niigata-style sake.
It was a great sake to go with snacks.
Next up was a Kenrishi, which was actually a first for us.
This sake has a strong rice flavor with a mellow spread.
This is a sake that is best served warmed.
I want to try it warmed next time.
Next was a Junmai Ginjo from Yasu.
It is also a cup with a gentle and fruity taste that is typical of Fukushima.
I had it with grilled crab with miso sauce, and it went very well with it.
The second glass was Tatsuzumi, another local sake from Aizu.
It is a typical Fukushima sake with a gentle and clean taste.
It doesn't feel too much like nigori sake 🤔.
It was delicious too 😊.
We compared Fukushima sake at the SAKANA FES held at Ogimachi Park.
The first one was Kunigon.
A cup of sake with a freshness and umami characteristic of nama-shu.
It was also very sharp and tasty!
Today we have a bottle of Sanzen Sakura from Kamikawa, Hokkaido.
A slightly sweet, light, crisp, light and dry bottle 🍶.
It was a fine bottle that I never get tired of drinking!
A souvenir from a visit to Kinosaki Onsen.
A sweet fruity, wine-like bottle. It was easy to drink and delicious!
It might be good for beginners and female recipients. 🙆♂️
The second glass was a spring sake from Kurume's local brewery, Yamabusyu.
It is not too sweet and has a light citrus flavor. 🙆♂️
The entrée was a pickled horse mackerel with a hint of spring, and it was delicious!
After work, I drank Nanbu Bijin for the first time.
It is a smooth drink with a slight aftertaste and a delicious taste of rice, and it was gone before I knew it 🤣.
