First sake of the year: ❗️ As the professional baseball world heats up to the climax in Japan and the U.S., the sake world is opening its season! I was lucky enough to get this on my way home from a drinking session on the road! What's the first sake to come out? As far as I know, it is this Fuji Taikan from last year. I immediately opened the bottle! Everything is fresh ✨From the bottle, I can smell the aromatic, melon-like ginjo aroma ☺️ The mouthfeel is an explosion of gas and fruity like melon and white grapes 💥I can also feel a hint of rice malt lingering in the air, which kind of makes me grin 😁. Thanks for the delicious sake 🙏🙏.

A toast with Tsukuba's sake at ❗️ event around Tsukuba station. I was given a bottle of Sutera, which I always love at the sake shop! Next to it was a Shizuku-shu ‼️ which I was somewhat intimidated by, so I opted for the Junmai Daiginjo. The fragrant banana-like fruity aroma wafting from the cup☺️ mouthfeel is sweet with an aroma that follows the fragrance and has a moderate lingering taste that is crisp and clean. It was a beautiful sake😍. I didn't bring my phone and didn't have any photos of the site, it was a mind shutter, but I am drunkenly commenting on it. I wish I had had the opportunity to compare drinking with Shizuku Sake, I wish I had grown up tall enough to do it, I reflected positively.

First time in Hikoichi! Is this a tasting of something called Oarai terroir? The flavor explosion of Tsuki no Ii did not disappoint, and somehow or other, it also seems to have the flavor of the sea breeze! Oooh! I can see the Pacific Ocean when I close my eyes! I'm also curious: ☺️ We had it for dinner with yellowtail sashimi and horse mackerel tataki from the supermarket 🍶. Flame Pillar I feel like Mr. Purgatory. Yum! Yum!"

Hiyoroshi from Kido! I'm curious! I was wondering what to drink with the other sakes. Yesterday, I kept it at room temperature, and it tasted gaseous and sharply acidic, followed by a gradual umami flavor. Today I chilled it in the fridge and the gaseous taste became a little milder, maybe because I let it sit for a day? The mouthfeel is also milder, and the umami and bitterness are more distinctive. I would drink it at the end of the season or at the end of summer with pickled cucumbers and big eggplants in the fall.

After the gaseous sensation, a beautiful melon-like ginjo aroma passes through the nose, and while there is a hint of sweetness, the taste is smooth and crisp. I thought the taste was modern, but also had the goodness of a beautiful old-fashioned sake. If I'm not careful, I'll drink up to 4 gobins lol.

Good morning, Nanka Yokai 😃. This is the second Masayo-san, isn't it? No, but we have Masayo-san in our house for the first time in a long time and we are looking forward to drinking it 😋.

Nanka Yokai
Jay & Nobby, good evening! Masayo, last time I was here, I bought a test brew-like for the first time 💦 this time it's a regular brew 🍶. Jay & Nobby, you also bought it! That's a coincidence after Takachiyo! Looking forward to your post 😊. I'm grateful to have started a new business with a liquor store within walking distance ^_^. I just had my kids shuffle the two types of sake I poured, and Masayo and I had a Kido sake game 😆 It's fun to learn more about the characteristics of each than drinking them separately 😊.

I am completely addicted to fall sake today. This is my first sake, attracted by the cool label. Yukawa Sake Brewery, the closest sake brewery to the stars in Japan🌟Oh, nice ❗️ I wondered if it is a fire-aged autumn sake, can it be served at room temperature? So I opened the bottle when it was back to room temperature. I was surprised to see gas! I was surprised to see gas 🫢. The mouthfeel was also gassy, with a green apple-like flavor, sweetness, and umami. I wondered if it would be better to refrigerate the gassy one. I put it back in the fridge, but it was very tasty with a freshness followed by a lingering umami flavor 😋. The freshness was followed by a lingering umami flavor. I felt that the freshness became a hidden flavor. I felt that it would taste better at room temperature. I feel that it tastes better at room temperature, so I'll leave it in the autumn air again ^_^.

The evening news and a drink while watching Mr. Otani's great success. UNITE, which we drank around this time last year. The moment you put it in your mouth, it has a sweetness like beckoning, and then it kicks in refreshingly like a lime. Handsome Wild Thing: ⚾️ I remember that last year, the acidity was more pronounced, but I felt it was a different kind of deliciousness ^_^. All the luxurious sakes I got from La Jomon are now all sealed 🍶Taste it slowly.

Hi Nanka Yokai 😃 I'm sure Otani's success is the best food, isn't it? Just watching him makes my sake 🍶 go up 😄. Nice that you are going to Okuroku in your hometown Iwate👍.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! Okuroku in Iwate, the samurai on the label? (right hand typing w), I see Mr. Otani! I'm sure you'll get it 😊. Last year we had the same sake with Otani-san as our entrée 🍶. This is going to be a regular sake that I look forward to every year ⚾️

First, first turtle. A great adventure of aroma and taste in one sip! The aroma is a bright ginjo aroma. When you drink it, the sweetness and umami spread quickly, and the spiciness? A sinking, disinfecting feeling like ethanol? (It is not a negative, but I don't know the word...). What is interesting is the description of the yeast. It is said to be mainly isoamyl acetate, a home-cultured yeast. While it seems to somehow remind me of the flavor, I had no idea it was such an enjoyable sake! We met at La Jomon ✨They recommended this one to us first, and we liked it... (3 is not enough 😅)

LaJomon's PB sake 😆. The moment I opened the lid, the aroma was extraordinary! It tastes and smells like ripe red grapes that jump in with a fresh gasiness. It is unique on its own, and its flavor is a delicious autumn taste. It was described as earthy and juicy! Yes, this flavor goes bee-yummy with the taste of autumn. Yamagata's autumn delicacies: imoni (stewed potatoes), akebi (akebi), and akitogi (swordfish). It is great with any of them. Enjoy the taste of autumn! The price was extravagant, but the experience was well worth it! It was well worth it! When we arrived at the restaurant, Mr. Kumagai said to us, "You're lucky. ‼️ Jennenshin Eido, we're in! I was sure of what Mr. Kumagai said to me when I arrived at the restaurant, "You're in luck! It was an emotional experience. ‼️

Crisp, dry and crisp sake. It has a concentrated aftertaste with a nice umami flavor that remains, however! The melon-like ginjo aroma that escapes into the nose is also beautiful✨. We arrived at my parents' house in the middle of the night and had a cup of what we got 🍶. During the day, I visited one of the biggest coffee events of the year and was unexpectedly exhausted.

It has a fruity, fresh sweetness, followed by a juicy umami aftertaste. While summer sake may have snapped off like a firework, autumn sake leaves you with a lingering taste of deep umami. It is addictive to taste the deliciousness of autumn seasonal foods and autumn sake. Today we had it with our second fall fish of the season 🐟. Today's temperature was comfortable and I could feel that fall has arrived! I could feel it all day long. I want to chew the short and precious autumn 🍂.

The melon-like ginjo aroma and flavor were fully appreciated. It was great to drink with autumn eggplant and pickled winter melon! It also has a delicious aftertaste and gives the impression that you can enjoy the sake alone slowly 😊.

It was an addictive sake with a somewhat bewitching mouthfeel and umami flavor. I felt that since the new taste was shining, the old-fashioned taste was also shining. I enjoyed the autumn flavors of grilled eggplant and chicken with a salsa-like sauce I made with sweet chili peppers called "biquinho" 🍂.

End of Summer Buy End of Summer in quantity. It is the last drink of the day. It has a strong yet sweet taste. It does not have the blatant sweetness of rice like amazake, but rather a sweetness of rice that is easy to accept. The aftertaste leaves a strong umami flavor. It is a good sake that matches the brand name. After taking a sip, I went out on the balcony and continued drinking. I found a sake I like to drink at this time of the year ^_^.

Tobiroki was unexpectedly within my reach! The price was not too unreasonable, so I took a chance and bought it 😊. After being very satisfied with my dinner, I got my hands on a bottle of Tobiroki. If it's too clear and clean, it's probably not enough for me now. I'm not sure if it's a peach juicy sake from Fukushima. I was excited and nervous about this rare sake, thinking that I might not feel anything at all....... The aroma was mild and the taste was very sweet! It tastes like apricots, not peaches. It tastes like apricots, not peaches, and the aroma passes through the nose. It quickly cools down with a spiciness, leaving a lingering faint sweetness. I felt nostalgic, but then I thought, "I used to drink this when I was young, the absolute king of apricot wine! It felt like it had been refined to a crisp ‼️ I am honored to drink it 💡.

Takachiyo's autumn sake with a refreshing juicy image. Super dry! I went to a liquor store to buy an autumn sake, and while I was browsing through various brands, I got curious and bought it. I also liked the fact that it was not hiyaoroshi, but rather an autumn sake that seemed to emphasize the feeling of being better 👍. It has a crisp, dry taste that goes from a crisp, gassy sensation! I also feel the fruitiness of Japanese citrus fruits such as sudachi, which I think is typical of Takachiyo! It is better to enjoy it with autumn ingredients than to drink it by itself ^_^. Today's dish is stir-fried eggplant and mushrooms. The next day, I pushed my family to choose the sauteed fish. It's too good 😂. This year's akitogi is affordable and tasty ^_^.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby! What a coincidence ❗️ what a pleasure ☺️ 18 degrees? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I didn't realize it until I looked back at the bottle💦. I'd like to sip this one with a squeeze of sudachi (Japanese citrus fruit) 😊.

Thank you, Loman, for the gift you gave me. It goes smoothly in the mouth and feels gooey and sweet. A bit like a hard peach. The aftertaste is sharp but leaves a hint of elegant sweetness 😊. A sake that I would not normally pick up. Fukushima sake is also good 🍑.

Dry sake. It has a melon-like ginjo aroma, a somewhat floral aroma, and a banana-like sweetness. The dry taste starts with a crisp and dry finish. The aftertaste is light and fresh with a hint of ginjo aroma. As far as I can think, this is my first Tatenogawa. I bought it at a roadside station. Since I was going to the trouble, I chose a sake distributed only in Yamagata. I feel it is similar to Dewazakura and Kiri-Tsukuba. Is it Ogawa yeast?

This is also purchased from Rajomon. This is the only place I know of where to get it. It has a sweetness like apple honey and a tartness that is unique to 6-row yeast. What is characteristic is that in this sweetness, the texture is very light ‼️ And it seems to melt in your mouth with this sourness😍.
